Haven't updated my journal for a while as I was busy and I don't want to post anything 'too similar'... Trials is over, but I am not relieved... While most only look forward to just finishing school, I couldn't care less about formal, graduation etc... All I care about is marks.... Moderations and current rank has horrified me for a long time, and now I have to see a psychologist about once a fortnight due to concerns over my safety....
Got my 3U trials back, only 42/70 and cannot recover my rank because I lost to someone just by one mark, most of the marks lost are from silly mistakes.. Terribly disheartened and angry, trials definitely don't satisfy it and did not make up for my overall internals... I know from experience how not being able to bounce back (half yearlies) have caused detriment to my marks (at least I did approach trials differently)... Now I know that in two months I could potentially make up for it which is really hard, I experience a lot of pain after trials just to bump my marks up, and the fact that I hardly see any good results... I abhor the very thoughts of getting 80s ... I cannot accept 89 even, just cannot... I am not ready to get hit again.... The school have been highly supportive and really tried to keep me healthy mentally, even allows me to repeat yr 12 there if I want next year... I don't think I am ready to face terrible results at this point and not mentally prepared to leave school yet (I am afraid I won't survive uni either, what are my chances of getting HD average? I haven't build a solid study habit)...
My effort to bounce back has been really difficult, bouncing back from half yearlies took me like over 3 months then trials comes in by that time, so it did impact me a great deal... Some remaining 2% hope still keeps me going somehow, hoping that NESA may take me out of the moderation system if I did really well and take into consideration all the bullcrap that happened, but what are the odds of that happening? Sure I am under special provisions but?
