A level results

A few days before the release of A level results, i would always be asked the questions, "how do u feel about it? Are you feeling nervous?" My instant response at that time was always, "who cares?" although i didnt say e two words in such a straightforward manner.

yup, i always had the impression that A level results was nothing. it would not make a difference in my life at all. people may say that it is only true for me. but i believe it is the same for many of us scholars. to most people, it is just a 面子问题. and people like me who dont care about 面子, it is virtually nothing.

however, it is not true... not true for so many people out there, where the results of a single exmaination make a difference between life and death. it may just completely alter one's path of life, leaving the person with no alternatives. for example, without a certain grade, you cant go for e medical school, no matter how hard you dream to be a doctor, just because e competition there is too fierce. hence, the future of a potential doctor is cut. he has to choose another career that he may not like, and...face the harsh side of life.

when i saw that, i really feel my heart is broken, and i feel so powerless that i cant do anything to help.

i m so fortunate that i was nv left with such a situation. i was not even tested by stress of an impt exam. i got admitted before i went for my graduation exam for primary and junior high school. i went thru O level with ease, and finally, i even "dun care" about A level... 真TMD欠扁...

to see e positive side of it, maybe that person is trained with e experience, and hence able to cope with similar situations better than me in e future. (maybe take a different perspective is just a kind of brainwash, as someone suggested) but up to now, i m just sad.
