Back.

I've been neglecting this place for far too long. Exams, stress, etc etc. Typical excuses. Moving along.

I got a D for my A Level H1 Chinese exam. I am deliriously happy. Never again will I have to attend Chinese lessons. No longer will I be faced with 1hr20mins periods of boredom. Nor will I have to endure where I feel like a moron, having to guess the meaning of words based on the things that are used to write it. Extra breaks, during which I will do nothing productive, beckon! They call to me, like the desert to the rain. I await my opportunity to bask in the warmth of their blissfulness. Ecstasy is now. Alright! Woohoo yay awesome.

On the day we received our results, I felt like a bit of an idiot to be honest. All around me were people who were sobbing, with tears streaming down their faces, because they had failed to achieve an A grade. And there I was, smiling to myself, wanting to jump about, after I had gotten a not-really-that-good result. Yet I am satisfied, because I know the limit of my abilities, and there is no chance I could get an A.

But on the other hand, there were people who had obtained an S grade, which really can't be considered a pass at all, and they were far more happy than me.

Different level of expectations I guess.
