haha, ok, i admit that was quite a dumb post, and i assure you, this one won't be much better off. but anyways, since we're getting back all our CTs and everything...

aiya ah meng and mel ho, don't be so dejected and disconsolate.

after all, it's ONLY a test!! c'mon man, there are so many other things in life that deserve your attention. not some stupid, pointlesss numbers written in red ink on the front page of some answer script! so your results in a school aren't good, life still goes on right? so many other aspects of your life to face, your health, your wealth, your family, your recreational pastimes, your favourite band, your aim in life, what to eat for breakfast tomorrow etc.

what about global warming, nuclear warfare, poverty?! see, look at in from a more AERIAL point of view. you just received a common test paper, in one of the 17 JCs in some small little country called Singapore, a tiny part of this continent named Asia, one of 7 huge continents of the planet Earth, which is but a solid mass that is present in our Universe, one of the thousands, maybe millions of galaxies existent. and we haven't even considered the fact that there are billions and billions of people all around you, bustling about in their own lives, unknowing of your existence, much less your school grades.

well if that doesn't persuade you, this might provide a lil comfort. famous names, people who made a huge impact on Mankind, Michael Jackson, Nelson Mandela, Mother Theresa, all these people didn't score straight-As on THEIR tests!

and that, my friends, concludes my case for the motion "Should people like Li Meng Yuan and Melissa Ho be disappointed about their common test grades? ". Thank you for your attention.
