Yesterday, the 13th of March was THE most anticipated day for everyone around Malaysia. It was a day where almost everybody had a a roller-coaster ride with emotion.
First, they start off with nervousness, then stress, break downs and other foreign emotions that are hard to decipher because there are all tangle up into one difficult knot. Some were numb later, some was not that fortunate that they had it all the way. I guess without a doubt, I was one of them. =>
It was the most memorable day of my life. First, have to wake up. In the beginning, waking up is tough because I slept late before that. So, when the sun decided to peek into my window, I threw the covers so I be immune. =D I guess what was so special about that day did not hit me that hard yet. In the back of my mind, I knew my bro will be sitting for their theory exams and I unconsciously pray for them and then went back to my sleep. => In the end, I had to get up though. Ah, this is where the phone comes in. It to my horror, started to ring. Distantly, I remembered switching the darn thing off so it would not disturb me, who knew it could switch itself back on. Without getting up, I was able to turn it off, not more than 5 minutes later, it started to ring AGAIN and AGAIN after that!!!!!!!!!! Bah, malas to go back to sleep, I eventually got up and got ready for the day.
Clean off the terrapin’s bucket, shower and everything later, my sis and I were ready to face THIS day, the day we receive our results for SPM. All the way, I was numb. I could not feel a thing. I guess all the nervousness were spent up the night before. It was like walking into a dream and not knowing when you wake up. All the way though, I had this nagging feeling that I was missing something. It was when my stomach decided to make itself known and with the poking from sis that I found out that I had miss breakfast. Ahhhh, lappparrrrrnyyaaa…………oh well………
So, into the school we go. Everywhere, you could hear people crying, laughing, shouting, screaming and such. I was amused and was thinking that we did not have to go to the market to get to hear this commotion. Simply said, it was beautiful and unique. To see your parents near, to see a child in their embrace with happy tears striking down their faces was the best thing one can see. To me, these were moments that everyone would like to remember. Some were with friends, some were jumping up and down, some were just screaming and mm….sadly nobody ran madly around. =D That would be comical. Anyway, so, I saw friends, I hugged some, yelled like them, jump with them and then it was my turn to see my results. It was only then did it hit me how scared i was. How utterly frightened I was. I really did not want to see my results, what is more is that my mom was going to see it with me. So, I guess I made up my mind to see the results first and break it gently to them if it was really bad. =D Who knew I got great results…..my sis too……we were ecstatic. What a joy!!!!!!!
Everything else happened like a blur. We took pictures, lots of them. Talk a lot and encourage each other more to work harder, smarter. Call, smsing, ring tones, voices filled the air, whether of joy or in sorrow it does not matter. Yesterday, was the day we had to take another step towards the working life. Yesterday was another achievement. So, I would like to thank a lot of people. My parents, family, siblings, teachers and especially friends. Friends that helped, cared and listened. =D
Thank you.
