This photo was taken two years and a half ago already, when I passed my High School final exams. I remember the day fairly well, it was my Spanish oral and with my friend we were so worried to be late that we arrived two hours early…
I was nervous, but not as much as I thought I would be. In January, I had my thrid year January exams, and it was a lot worse. I suppose that now, I understand better the importance of those exams. In France everything is graded, and judged. I was never a hard-worker. I used to think “I have time” and wait the last minute to do things. This year for the first time I truly care about my studies. It is somewhat new to me and the more I care the more I feel nervous. I had my results yesterday, and they were not as good as I hoped. Two years ago, I would not have cared. I would have said “it’s fine, I didn’t study hard anyway”. But now that I actually did, those grades hurt me. I wonder “What did I mess up?” “Why can’t I do better when I studied so hard?”. Those are questions I ask myself, but I cannot answer. Next time, I will make sure to study even harder so my grades will be better, I hope.
I suppose I am not the only one here struggling with exams and results, so I wish you all to be successful!
