Hello everyone, beautiful day today. Sun is really up and about making me sweat even in the comforts of my room. Before you proceed any further, I would just like to state that today's post is dedicated to the PSLE students who just received their results approximately 3 hours ago? Thereabout.

Well well, I remember the day I received my PSLE results, for sure. But only up to the point whereby my form teacher gave me that smirk when she handed me my results. From then on, everything for the next few days were a blur. I cried and cried and cried and never did get over it for the whole month, actually it still hurts till today. After some time, it's like I started dreading about what was to come about in life. I didn't want to proceed any further. I mean oh god, I was freaking going to St.Gabriel's man. Oh my gosh. St.Gabriel's! The most screwed up school in the whole freaking Singapore. Didn't help that my brother kept telling me about the hostile environment in that school. Hahaha, thinking back, it was quite funny that I was actually damn biased towards St.Gabriel's in such a negative way. Cause now, I'm pro-Gabrielite. Lets just say that whatever happened between then and now, were the best things that could possibly ever happen to me. THE BEST DAMN THING! (Yay! Avril Lavigne! You rock!)

Wait, I haven't made my point yet. To the moral of the story a.k.a CODA! You see as humans, we are bound to face major disappointments in life. Sometimes in order to solve a question, we need to ask even more questions of ourselves. But how do we know we are asking the correct questions? Just as I was in the gym just now in school with Aaron, we saw a couple of parents (apparent that they were inquiring about St.Gabriel's) touring and checking out the facilities. Why does it seem so important to them? Why are they setting a bad example for their kids? Why are they inquiring about what the school has to offer for their kids? As parents, shouldn't they rather be asking themselves what their kids can do for the school? It's really sad. Sigh, sometimes our actions are well-intended but we don't seem to be able to connect the dots until we look back further on in time.

To those who have excelled in your Primary School Leaving Examinations, congratulations to you. Be optimistic about your future for there are many great things to look forward to. However, be cautiously optimistic because the closer you think you are to heaven, the bigger your ego gets and then poof, you lose everything. For those who didn't do too well, it's alright. Now is the best time to reflect on what you want to do with your life. But please please please don't be dejected, ever. It's alright to be sad for a moment, but you have to move on. Time doesn't actually heal all wounds, but it can help you come to terms with your shortcomings and make you an even stronger person. Make full use of this disappointment to drive you even further in life.

Soon, you'll be entering the most exciting period of your life, teenage-hood. For most of the time, your emotions will decide what you do. But you have to learn to cope with your impulses. Nothing is overnight, no success is born in an instant. Every story needs to be crafted from scratch. My advice? Stand up for what you believe in yet also be humble at the same time. There may be times whereby you feel as if life is spiralling out of control and you want no further part of it. Yet, trust me on this. There's more that meets the eye they say, I totally agree. You have to understand that relationships at this point of your life are unnecessary and may actually be a burden to you. Do not follow the people around you blindly, they're just a fashion. They fade in, then they fade out. They promise you the world, yet deliver you to hell. So begone now, enjoy the fruits of life and also the bitterness of medicine. Only when you understand your role in society will you then be able to make rational decisions. For now, stick close to your parents and follow every good example they set. Be patient with your tribulations, soon enough, secondary school life will be over.
