hey...haix..today a few of my friends in jc now were retained ba...i dunno..looking back..its like i remember how i felt during j1 when i almost retained..and ya, tat feeling sucks! but guys..just wanna tell u its not the end of the road too k~? yaa..i dunno if u all will ever read this..but juz hope this'll encourage u guys too ba...

I still remember when i was in j1..my promo results were OOO...ya..triple O's...! =P and by right i couldn't promote too..at that time...i felt so terrible..i still remembered i broke down and cried in my school cafe..yaa~..but in the end the school gave me a chance and let me took a re-exam which i passed..yaa..but the prob was..the re-exam was super easy! and ya..even though i went through...i felt i went to J2 without a strong foundation too ba...and i struggled so badly in tat year too~! and in the end..when i reached the A's...oh man..how i wished i could have retained...i still remember i walked out of the exam hall on the final day of my exam so disappointed...cause i knew i screwed up my A's alreadie..yaa...

guys..juz wanna say retaining's not at all a bad thing...at the end of it all, our life in jC's juz a path to bring us to university..though yaa...its reallie the time when we'll have so much fun, make so many friends..but at the end of the day, if we dun make it to uni...then noo..its all not worth it...it'll juz be a waste of 2 yrs of our time....i know...cause i wasted mine! and yaa..i would give everything to retain once again ba..cause the 2nd time round..thing's will be so much better...concepts and stuff will all come to u more naturally and yaa..i guess when promos come once again, u will be so much more prepared than when u first took it ba...its not a waste of time..yup..but its just an opportunity for u all to do better tat's all...i reallie hope u all can look at it this way too k~? yaa...though all of u are feeling reallie lost and sad now...but..do rise up again k~? Trust in God to lift u up once again too ba...everything happens for a reason..do look at the brighter side of things k~?...yup.....i guess tat's all...i reallie hope this helped....ya..do take care and cheer up too ya~? =)
