~I did it!~
I feel zombie-like now. I'm so tired. Head is pounding. No idea what time I slept last night...but it's late...or rather early in the morning and woke up at 9am. Yes, I sleep like a pig...I need my beauty sleeps!
Why did I wake up so early? I went to uni to look for a lecturer to return to him the report that I had borrowed for my project. First thing he said, or rather second b'cos he had to apologize for being late, was congratulation. I was like huh? But still managed to say thanks though I don't know for what.
Then he said, "you must be pleased with your results!" Oic...that's what he's talking about. Eh...problem...I don't know my results! Haha! And I told him so. He looked a bit shock. Haha...so he sees me as those kiasu type who knows when my results are out and wait for it so I can know it the min it's out.
Anyway he proceeded to tell me I've got a 2.1! Yes! Couldn't help but grin like a cheshire cat! Showed me my transcript and asked if that was what I expected. Hell no! Of cos I didn't say that. I managed to keep my calm (although I'm shell-shocked and leaping with estasy inside) and said, "No. I didn't expect it at all. I was thinking that I would get a 2.2. I wasn't confident of getting a 2.1."
Woo Hoo! I can remove that one point from my wishlist now, I've got it! Eh...but looking at the transcript, really everything I wasn't expecting. Damn external examiner...he marked down my project! Or so my project tutor said...I believe him 'cos he's a nice guy and did I ever mentioned that the first impression he gave me was einstein? He has a head of white hair that curls and looks like those of einstein's! Ops, back to topic....yes, damn the external examiner! I was hoping to get a distinction for my project and now I'm 1 mark short b'cos of him! or maybe her!
Then comes the module I thought I might fail b'cos I practically didn't do one whole question. I only had 15 mins to do it and came up with 1.5 pages of answers which I don't even think is relavent. Somehow I managed to pass it and it isn't just pass 40% on the dot, I still got 54%! Haha!
Calculating the marks I've got for one other module just shocked me even more. 'cos you see, I know all my in-course assessments'(ICA) marks for that module and by calculating back I can figure out how much I got for exams. And the resultant exam marks was 70.4%! Gosh! A distinction mark for exams??? Oh well, but I didn't do well enough for my ICAs to get a overall distinction for the module.
Really happy with myself. I acheived my aim at last! Haven done that in a very long time, at least for acedemic wise. Yeah...haven wasted my mummy's pension money to send me here!
