The PSLE results have just been released! Usually, every year I don't take note of it because I don't have a child and my own PSLE is kind of over since I was P6. Anyway, there is NO escaping it. Singapore is like, a broken record played over and over again during the PSLE results period.
98.7FM : And the top scorer this year comes from...
98.0FM : ... Nanyang girls school...
95.0FM : ...Top malay scholar and indian scholar are...
Me : MUSIC! Rar. (switches to chinese channel)
93.3 : zui gao zhuang yuan...
Me : -.-"
And then I reach my destination. Which was chinese swimming club, by the way. I wanted to go for a swim. So I went into the changing room and I heard these two ladies.
Lady A : You know, my son's PSLE results not very good, cannot enter this secondary school.
Lady B : Huh.... then you got try DSA or not?
A : The school say must at least 240 then can appeal so I appeal lor... lucky can at least get 240.
B : wa... you good lor... your son not bad ah.
A : Thank you... hahaha. Also not say very good lah...
Ok. By now I think I sort of get the point. PSLE results, Singapore, out. Ok to whoever the one is that is trying to pass me this subconscious message. Don't get the point but, thanks. Now I know that results are out. So I wanted to keep my stuff, and then my phone rang.
Me : Hello Mum?
Mum: Hey! You know PSLE results are just out?
Me : (bangs head against locker)
The story here has no intention of making fun of any sort of race, culture, religion, age, relationship, skin colour, weight, height, eye colour, hair type, country clubs, or any other thing that you can think of. This is for the sake of pure entertainment and information that PSLE RESULTS ARE OUT. And the author feels that an array of experiences that keeps telling her that PSLE RESULTS ARE OUT should be shared with the mugalomaniac world or the unexplained coincidences will be for nil. So, if you don't get that PSLE RESULTS ARE OUT, well, PSLE RESULTS ARE OUT. SO there.
