YEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

When was the last time I posted? I couldn't really remember.

Anyway a lot of stuff have happened these while.

Firstly, thank god I promoted. But barely though. I got SEEDS. Maybe I can plant some fruit trees.

Pass for math and bio, subpass for chem and econs, and my best subject was GP surprisingly.

I thought I flunked the GP paper because my format was wrong for Paper 1. I was supposed to take a 3-2, for or against the motion, "Teachers are irrelevant in the age of technology."

I sat on the fence for that one. The paper I thought I will screw, was my best paper.

So how unlucky can I get, with triple 48 marks for PE namely chem, bio and econs. WTF Scrape pass also don't give me. Disturbing.

Alright I got jitters when they handed out the result script. Mrs Sim was walking down the row (Janice lim lookalike). Then she commented on their results, like "subpaper, good luck!", "promoted~", and stuff like that.

So within the 3rd person in front of me I can hear whatever she says. So she said to Bryan, "Promoted." Then Kai Sheng was in front of me. She handed the slip to him, and said something like "aiya I don't need to say anything." Then she said "very good all promoted".

Then she gave the black face and looked at me. My pitiful innocent eyes staring into her cold, bloodshot glaze.

"YOU AH! Promoted, but need to buck up okay!" Wah OMGOSHZWTFBBQRUBBERBAND

I am so freaked out can. But I didn't really get very nervous because I thought she wouldn't say, "all got promoted" in front of me, if I really didn't make it.

I still remembered that time after exams, in chemistry lecture, she told me to "must pay attention in this lecture ah!"

So I thought maybe I promoted, but she thought I was too slack. Or I missed the mark, and she wanted me to pay attention for next year in J1. But anyhow I slept cos the lecturer was too boring.

But well over is over :D

So we will be having a great change in our teaching staff next year. Mrs Sim will not be following up for Chem, because of family commitments. Miss Aminah is uncertain. Ms Ong has retired abruptly from teaching, because of health problems.

Only one left standing is Mrs Tan for Maths. And since Mrs Sim isn't our Civics Tutor anymore, according to rumours Mrs Tan will be taking over.

Not saying she isn't good, but I really prefer Mrs Sim. That day, it was her last day with us and Mrs Sim treated us breakfast, homemade pasta, and all sorts of pie and tarts. Even muffins. Seriously I am thankful for her encouragements, waking me up when I really need to. Literally and figuratively. Like when I sleep in classes. And when I really slacked too much.

So here I would like to thank her. Though I might not show it but I am very appreciative of her. Its kinda depressing when people like her can't teach you anymore.

And her parting statement to me was not to sleep anymore and buck up. I will remember it. Oh well, at least I had her for my maiden year. Maybe if its other teachers I wouldn't feel so comfortable, because she really is a very dedicated teacher.

Alright, I am off to wipe my tears :(
