I Don’t Know Why Your Head Is So Big

BGM: [Silvertoes] by Parokya ni Edgar


Today my grades shot me down. Period.

As you have witnessed in my tagboard, I was in UST by 3:00 in the afternoon after having a helluva time downloading more mp3s for my listening pleasure.

My Physics subject really made me nearly cry unabashedly in the canteen (if not for the nutty kid named Ellison). Look, I’m not your above-average student who lives in a book-eat-book-sleep world. I’m a student who rarely reviews and nearly passes subjects. How’s that for a son.

Now, I already have a 3 in both my ICSLec and ICSLab subjects, and I’m pretty sure it’s gonna be an eyesore to my high-expectant parents. I’m really screwed to have such parents who puts too much pressure on their only male child in the family.

My Physics subject transmutation nearly made me cry. I only got 56.65 in my Laboratory, 3.35 points short of passing the subject. And in my Lecture subject I fared no better. I only got 50. Damn. Dejected, pissed and almost on the verge of hysteria of thinking “How I’m gonna tell this to my parents?”.

Luckily, I later knew that the passing grade for the Lab is 55 and our class have a +10 for a perfect attendance in Lecture. So, I passed both. I have 60 in Lecture, and 56 in Laboratory. The LAB RAT got out of the maze. If not for the many headbumps.

But how the hell I am going to tell my parents I have FOUR 3’s in my scorecard??
