I'd rather make mistakes now than six months later
I don't know what exactly to say. But one thing's for sure, today for my English MYE, it did not go well. I can name every single FATAL error I did: Paper1: Instructions "write a letter ... write a letter..." What did I do? I thought of writing a formal letter, but I didn't. I wrote a freaking report. It's not even a proposal, I wrote a freaking report. There goes the ten marks allocated for task-fulfillment because I used the wrong format... Should have been a formal letter... but why would you send a formal letter to your own school?! Sighh... but the fun doesn't stop there.Paper2: Summary question required separation of points of advantages and limitations... What amazing thing did I do? I didn't. Even when I fully knew well that the summary question required the separation of points of limitations from advantages I didn't do it, and the best part was I was deliberating whether I should or shouldn't at that time. And I don't know why, - when I knew the question so well - I didn't do what was required of it. So as of now, my summary is officially flushed down the drain, along with my confidence and what remaining hope I have for this MYE.Everything after that was just anguish and dejection, pure regret and a sinking feeling in my gut. I can only hope that my comprehension and my composition would be able to enable me a pass... But even I'm not so confident in them. I've deteriorated and degraded in my English skills all right. And it makes me want to scoff more at the good things people say about me. Maybe I should mention something. I had a heart-to-heart session with Mrs Rupesh on Monday, the 27th... It was cruel, how she skipped so many people just to talk to me, especially when I don't deserve it, when there are others who need someone to talk to more than I and when people haven't even had a single heart-to-heart session with her yet. What she said to me wasn't all sugar and candy-coated marshmellows as well. I can say for sure she meant for me to be motivated to study, but what she did was place more pressure on me. Why? She told me people looked up to me, that they respected me, that people admired me because I had so many CCAs and I was still able to be consistent in my work and tests. And though it boosted my self-esteem (I was VERY unconvinced at first) for a tiny while, it made me sad after that. Because people expect something of me. Teachers expect something of me. They want me to excel, and because I was so busy at the start of the year, I've not been performing as well as I should be. How well should I be performing? You tell me.HOW CAN I MEET THEIR EXPECTATIONS WHEN I BARELY HAVE ANY EXPECTATIONS OF MYSELF?! It's contradictory to what I say when all I expect of myself is to study hard and do my best and definitely NOT screw up. But look, I FREAKING SCREWED UP TODAY BIG TIME.I'm getting frustrated and exasperated when I have no right to. When I have no REAL reason to. I don't know why, it feels as if I've just messed up big time for my O Levels'... And it makes me feel better that it isn't, but this MYE still counts for me. And doing badly for this language paper that I want to excel in is just heartbreaking. I've failed myself. I've failed myself so badly. I wanted to do well in this language because my Chinese is not very good... But now... Now...Sigh... I'm being emo again. Haha, stupid, silly little immature girl. Crying over every little mistake you make, you don't know what real pain is. Resilient you are not. You're so WEAK.I need to sleep. I seriously need to sleep before I study for Chinese.I'd rather make mistakes now and learn from them than make the mistake six months and cry over it, being helpless and all. But then I don't want to make mistakes at all, and I did.
Side note: ALL THE BEST FOR YOUR EXAMS, PEOPLE!
"I used to never dream but now I have nightmares. Will you save me from this darkness? Keep me surrounded, I hear you calling me. I need to feel you, to end my agony and wash it all away. Let me feel you reaching for me. I need to be, I need to be surrounded by you. Will it ever go away?"
