High School

I was going through the remarks made by my form teachers during secondary schools, and thought them pretty amusing. Let me reproduce them here verbatim:

Secondary 1:

Sem 1: Disappointing Results. Has performed poorly. Good work attitude but failed to achieve good grades. needs to work very hard to pass the final exam. (is she implying im hardworking but dumb?!)

Sem 2: A capable pupil. Has potential (that's more like it.)

Secondary 2:

Sem 1: Shaun is capable of better performance (yawn)

Sem 2: Shaun is capable of better performance if he is not so complacent. He must put in more effort in his Maths and Chinese. More time should be spent on his studies rather than the internet.

Secondary 3:

Sem 1: Does not respond well to advice and corrections by teachers and needs to show more interest in class (Note: she was boring as hell.)

Sem 2: Disappointing results probably due to irregular attendeance. Hei s (sic) at times is late for school. Shaun needs self-discipline to pass his "O" levels next year. Essay Competition (3rd prize)

Secondary 4:

Sem 1: Shaun is under performing. He needs to be more focused and disciplined in his work attitude.

Sem 2: An intelligent student who has the potential to do well if he puts his mind to it.

And that, folks, sums up my secondary school years. Haha.
