When the results were released at 8am today, I was immbolised.
The other heads had formed a circle around the P, but I could not lift myself off the chair.
The blood roared in my head, and I actually was quite faint.
If it was bad news, I could not have taken it.
Myreen was braver...and for a good reason.
She pulled in the best results. Through her drill and structure, she got her class to perform well.
Kian Beng....the 3 years of hard work paid off...the Sec 5s brought in the best results ever.
Gingerly I made my way to the table...
Clammy hands and wildly erratic heartbeats...feeling woozy as I forced myself to look at the numbers.
I could exhale...
Though not as well as I had hoped for, I felt vindicated.
And then the phone rang.
On the other line...was a voice that informed me what had gone wrong...
I had lost sight of what was really important to me.
So while I took care of the results...and while I am grateful that the kids did well...
It all boils down , at the moment to this.
I failed someone...
I failed...I failed...I failed...
It is really time to go....
