I Knew This Was My Best Moment
I knew this is my moment.
The day to take the PMR result, I was already know that I will not get straight A’s because I already check the PMR exam paper before, I can only got 6A’s. So that day, I came without expecting any miracle will happen. I came early that day. 9 o'clock in the morning I was up but the PMR results come out at 11 am. At 11 am, Datin Aslindawati make an announcement on the stage. She asked everyone come in the hall and line up according to their classes.

After that, Puan Mystrical gave a speech. She said this year, batch of 97 make a new records because this year there was 9O students that got straight A's in PMR. I know I'm not included in the 90 person. Lying if I said I did not want 8A's, but I realize that I was not smart enough to get straight A's. So when the teacher want to announce that straight A's student, I just pretend that I am not there. Suddenly, my name was called. I was stunned a moment there. That time I felt like time had stopped, my heart is dislodged and all of these was like a dream.

After coming out of the hall, I directly call my mom and my mom was shocked. She did not expect it but when I heard her voice, I know she was very happy because her efforts for all these day was not in vain. Not in vain she and my dad work day and night, just because want to send me to the tuition class. After that, I went to the car, to meet my father, he did not come out from the car because he was tired and sleepy. He just came back from work and directly send me to school to take the PMR result. I do not blame him because of not come out from the car. I know he's tired.

When he knew I got straight A's, his face changed. Not even sleepy. Since that time, my father was busy talking that he was proud of me. One verse touched me most of all was the day, he said "Just now I was very sleepy, but when I found out that you get 8A's, I don't feeling sleepy anymore". At that time, I feel like going to cry. My heart is truly touched. Since

Shakily I finish getting dressed for the day, I am adorned in a pair of navy pants and a grey button up with the number 84 on the cuff. Each year the society gives a number to every child born. I was the 84th child of the year so that is the number I was assigned, many of my other classmates have number ranging from 20 to over 200.

    In an instant, I was wide-awake. An asphyxiating, crushing pressure and dark, dank air felt like my only company. I was dying, or so every part of my being was telling me. The immense, clutching pains radiating from my chest to my jaw could be only one thing… a heart attack. I lay there silently, overwhelmed with crippling fear and panic; frozen, immobile, waiting for what my mind had deemed inevitable. Wait…the pain was beginning to ease. The powerful clutch of dread freezing me was beginning to weaken. My mind flooded with hope. I’m going to be okay.…

Going into my first year of high school in Ateneo, I was filled with excitement and pride. I was one of top students in my batch back in my old school, there was nothing standing in my way on my road to excellence in this new school. Alas I was wrong. I tried being laid back in studying to the point that I don’t study at all and just listened to the teacher. The day of my first long test came and the moment I looked at the paper, I knew I was going to fail. I was not prepared and the least I could do was to brace myself for the worst. When I got the paper back, even though I knew I was going to fail, I was shocked. Out of fifty I got a fourteen. This score translated to an F1 in my mid-term marks. My parents, grandmother and even my previous teachers were shocked. My world changed…

    The students in the classroom were all listening to the teacher attentively. So the classroom is so quiet except the teacher’s voice. Suddenly, I felt my chair was shaking, I thought first the shaking was my classmate who sat behind me kicking my chair , so I turned around and asked him to stop kicking my chair and gave him a hard look angrily, but he looked at me with innocent eyes. I ignored him, turned back, and tried to listen to the lecture, and then my desk was still shaking. In the meantime, other classmates said loudly that their desks were shaking. My teacher asked us to calm down and he went out to see what was happening. At same time, the light dropped down from the ceiling and water machine fell down suddenly. We were very scared by what happened. So we ran out the classroom even though our teacher was not back yet. When we ran out from the classroom, I saw many students were running to safety exits, and our school president told us to run out the building as soon as possible. I did not know what happened, but I felt the building would fall down, maybe because the subway and the construction machine touched the foundation of the building. We ran down the stairs from twenty eight floors, during the time we ran off, I just miss my family very much and I realized how important my family to me. It is not easy for anyone to run down from 28th…

    It was our final day for the submission of the assignment our professor had given to us. I worked hard to complete the assignment in time and had to put in extra efforts at night so as to complete it. Next morning my mom came to wake me up for the university and found out that I had a fever. I felt weak and there was no way I could go to the university, but I was worried about the assignment I had to submit, as I could lose a year because of that. My mom suggested that I could give my assignment to Lily and she could give it to the professor. Lily was right in time like everyday. She was a bit worried seeing me in such a bad state. I handed my assignment to her. I had to stay home for 2 days before I was strong enough to go back to university. I was waiting for Lily to come. It was getting late and she didn't appear, so I called her to find out where she was. Her mom told me that she had already left. I was a little disappointed; however my dad drove me to the university. As soon as I arrived, I saw Lily giggling and chatting with some girls, and to my surprise she was chatting with the girls whom we used to avoid talking to because of their bad nature. I took my seat quietly and we did not speak a word. The lesson began and the professor came in with already checked assignments. Everyone was tense and I was confident that, as usual, I got a high grade.…
