Even before the promo exam, I had already knew of my chances of promoting to JC2 next year. it is just that I have to give it my all during the day. But now that i know that I am safe, I kinda felt bad for those people who are not gonna make it to JC2 next year. Of course, the word "Retainophobia" is now floating in the minds of all JC1s who are either eagerly waiting for their results or had already knew of their fate.
However there are those people who I will miss a lot if they are either retained or kicked out of the school. Unfortunately those people included her. I had already suspect of those people who are definitely not gonna make it and one of them is in fact her. Other than that, many of my close friends are also not gonna make it to the next round just by 1 or 2 credit points. I tried to go around to sort of calm them down and be a good friend by being there for them but I know that that will not cut it. it was so bad that I could even see students crying in the bus because of this.
Beneath all this, hope is always there...vaguely at least. According to the school rules, the principal could still promote a student who did not meet the prerequisite of 6 credit points provided that by chance he or she did not fail too badly and that their conduct was good. Another point that I found out however was that there were only 40 places for retainees and the rest will be transferred to a polytechnic of their choice. Frankly speaking, I really do hope that my friends...including her will miraculously be promoted together with me but it all now depends on the school. Either way I still do have to find a way to move on next year in contention for my A' levels...even without them being there together with me doing the same thing.
