This morning when my dad put all the post on the table, something caught my eye. Underneath the letters there was an envelope with "University of..." stamped onto it.
"OMG Results!" I screamed (by accident of course..). I had completely forgotten about them. Typical, when the day comes I forget!
Anyway...I picked up the envelope and carried on munching my toast (I wanted to finish my breakfast, cos if I had failed I wouldn't eat all day...and I was hungry o.k!?). Dad couldn't wait any longer, so he snatched the envelope....I snatched it back and carried on slurping my tea (we love each other really :D ).
You'd probably think I was used to this kinda thing by now, especially after A-levels. But getting A-level results wasn't as bad.... you could re-take and nobody would know (not that I ever did re-take)..... but at uni if you failed everbody would know...I mean EVERYBODY!... At uni they pin up the failiures names on the main notice board, and at home, because you're Pakistani, all your relatives find out...... which is total baistee!
Oh so when I did finally finish my breakfast, I opened the envelope.....*Drum roll* ..... I PASSED! Woooooh!
I was surprised cos for 6 out of 7 modules I only revised the night before..... and they were good passes!
Comment from dad- "hmmm..... all around 70%....hmmm....not bad for the first year, I suppose."
Honestly!.... My parents expectations are so high I need a ladder to reach them...... Anyone got a spare ladder? heh!

Mashallah! Great job on passing, speshly since you got 70%'s!
Alhamdulillah, our results are only online, and give a grade instead of a percentage, so my dad can't say what happened to the other 45% or whatever :)

Thanx!
Mcpagal- ur soo lucky!...our's come online a few days after they've posted them....my dad always examines my results from top to bottom...and he neva misses a bad mark! :(
Anyone got a spare ladder? heh!
