‘Oh my God! There are only two days left for the scariest day in my life’ I mumbled alone in front of my laptop. It was 20 March 2012. 9.18 p.m. So, there would be only twenty six hours , fourty two minutes and five seconds left before that day. 22nd March 2012. It was a turning point of my life whether I could further my studies in University Technology of Petronas (UTP) or I would easily knocked out from studying here. It was just a nightmare of imagining my bad SPM result. What am I going to say to my parents and how about my dream of becoming a successful engineer in future? Oh. My life was not peaceful anymore waiting for that day.
My friends and I had just finished our Pre-Calculus Test 2. I would going back to my hometown in Penang to take my SPM results. My stomach stopped growling immediately once I thought about the result. Actually, I would take a bus from UTP to go back to Penang. It was a windy and breezy evening at Tronoh, Perak. Fortunately, my heart calmed down a little bit when I saw a beautiful scenery of UTP’s lake. I hoped that I could be as calm as the water lake and I really wanted to forget about the result. After 20 minutes waiting for the bus, finally, a blue bus with orange stripes was driven into the mosque's compound. Along the journey, I was just listening to my mp3 player and it was absolutely a tiring day for me. Tomorrow will be a huge day and I want save my energy to a maximum level, so that I could face all the possibilities in the next day.
The big day has come. I was really anxious and excited to know my SPM result. I am sure that all my friends would have the same feelings just like me. We were really excited and longing for each others. At 11 a.m, we were asked to go to the main hall. I told myself that I have to receive all the fates that has been decided by Him. He know what the best for us. I have to be strong.
My teacher, Mr. Shakir walked to the main stage and the ceremony started. Before announcing the SPM results, our headmaster gave a speech saying that our batch has scored the best results compared with ten years before. All of us were really excited to know about the news. However, my hearts was still not calm as it beated even faster. Our school result was good but how about my own result? I did not want to disappoint my parents. They were really inspiring me and I hope that I could pass with flying colours. Then, students who got straight As were announced and they needed to walk on to the stage to take their results. I hope that I could be one of the students who would take the results on the stage. Fortunately, my name was announced and I felt so happy about that. I got 12 As and it was really unexpected result. I hugged my mom and dad. It was such a seventh heaven once you got what you were really dream of .
All the students were taking pictures. Some of them were crying at the other side and some of them were talking to their friends. On that day, I realized that you will just get for what you have paid. I was really thankful and grateful to Him because of this success. I promised to myself that I would study hard and smart in order to increase the momentum of success.
