Upon receiving the results

Met up with some girl-friends to have lunch together. Everyone was liked so nervous, including me, of course. I was starting to feel the heat by then.
We reached school with time to spare and so decided to take a tour around. It felt great to be back. After a while, we saw our biology teacher. He then started saying that our biology results were not that good. There was only 1 distinction...That was when we started panicking. I kept perspiring, my hands were sweaty...
It was time to assemble in the hall. The new principal and vice principal talked for a while, before giving the teachers the cue to hand out the results slips. It was really warm in the hall. Our English teacher came by and told some of us our English grade. I got a B3 for it! Yay!
At long last, it was my turn...
My hands were shaking so much before getting the results. When I saw the slip, let's just say my mind blank out. It was until my teacher helped me count my L1R4 that I saw the grades. I got an A1 for Combined Science! It was a miracle as the Chemistry paper was tough. Then came an A2 for Chinese! Glad that I retake the paper!
I got 4 B3: English, Combined Humanities, Maths and Biology. Combined Humanities was a little disappointing. I expected an A for it. The same goes to Maths and Biology. But the Biology paper was really difficult. I passed my A maths!! As my tuition teacher put it, Finally! I got a C5 for it!
Hooray! I'm really really happy!
So, my L1R4 or 5 subjects is 12 points. L1R5 or 6 subjects is 15.
Of course, there were people who did not do that well...
I almost cried when I called my parents. I messaged my tuition teacher too. Some friends and I wanted to go out to celebrate. In the end, we ate ice-cream at Swensens's.
This year, there were 2 students who got 7 As. Our school seemed to be the only school that allow us to return in home clothes. It was great not to wear school uniforms seeing as we were already ex-students.
Now to choose my the course I wanted...
Till next time~
Thank you
