The unprecedented injury.
So much for a good start for the week. I slipped near the CJC bus stop and fell flat to the ground, my uniform smudged with mud and dirt, my body trembling due to intolerable pain. I didn't realize that I had I had a wounded knee, until I saw stains of blood on my pants. The wound was bleeding all the way until I reached school; Mr. Sirhan, fortunately, was there and gave me a helping hand. I owe him big time.
Doing the exam inside the -273 degree centigrade founder's hall, carrying the burden of my stupidity and carelessness, was the biggest challenge that I had to overcome in the course of this O Level Examination period.
Worse, my situation was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
It was the day of the English exam, the most important exam of my life.
My only L1 subject.
And I felt that I totally screwed it up.
Two essays, two worst possible essays that I could ever write for an exam.
Incomprehensible comprehension answers.
Poorly reworded summary points.
And a few weeks back, a lackluster Oral Examination performance from yours truly.
Now, I really have no idea how in the world will I be able to clinch that A1 grade.
My life is at stake.
