This happened last night or rather in the wee hours of this morning. I wanted to blog it earlier but was too tired. My brain cells weren't co-operating and I have several reports to complete before my trip. Hence, I'm blogging it only now.
It had been a while since I last talk to him. Him refers to the guy who caused distractions to my life during the exams period. The last we had a good talk was when we made peace during the exams period. Then, both of us were occupied with the examinations. After I completed my exams, he was still struggling to complete his exams.
While he was busy with his exams, I was hooked to online games and my feelings for him has since faded. But one thing for sure, we're still the best of friends.
So last night, I met him. I broke the news about my results to him. As expected he was disappointed. He'd always wanted me to be a straight A student. Well, I have never been a straight A student but I do boast excellent results during my Primary 6 prelims where I emerged the top student of my class and in Sec 2 where my end of year results were amazing! I'd even beat the top Science student den. But since then, I lost my directions and my grades start to go downhill.
However, this sem's result is something I can be proud of because I passed all my modules with consistent results. However, getting B's isn't sufficient in his dictionary of academic results. He's so hard to please! Yes, he's aiming for straight As this sem and he expects me to do the same.
My dear, this is your final year. I understands how important it is for you to get all the As. I've seen you achieving excellent grades since we knew each other 5 years ago. Your academic achievements were simply just too excellent. From ITE to poly to NUS. That is the reason why I salute and respected you. This is also why I made you my role model.
However, do remember.. while you were busy with the paper chase, I was working. And after 4 years, I am finally going back to school again. Achieving straight Bs is an achievement given the bad record I'd always had. I'll promise you, I'll make significant improvements next sem just for you.
Yesterday, I also told him that I'll be lonely after he graduate next sem. There won't be anyone to study with me in the wee hours of the morning, there won't be anyone to share tips on essay writings, etc. But he assured me that he'll still try to be there for me and told me that a year will go by very quickly.
Thank you my dearest friend. You're simply the best though you're always out to irritate me!
