I Thought I Found A Friend- Chapter 1

GETTING TO KNOW AMELIA

Dear Diary,

215.

4Cs and 1B.

Looking back, all my life, I have just been studying. Do I have a large group of friends I can call up when I'm feeling down or to fangirl together? Do I have a social life?

No.

All day and all night, I study. On top of an endless pile of homework, I still have to make time for revision

Is this the life that I want? I want to be able to go out with my friends and have fun. I want to be able to text someone all day. I want to have a relationship with a friend so close that i can send so many messages to them yet not have to worry about looking like a clingy little kid who needs attention all the time.

I sometimes even want a relationship. A guy who would treat me well. :)

All i ever had was my studies; my academic achievements.

And now, even that is no longer existent. It went up in smoke when my PSLE results came out. I should have at least gotten a 250. Why was it that I did so badly in comparison?

I will never forget the disappointed look on Dad and Mom's faces when they heard about my results. I am an only child, my parents' pride and joy. They spent so much money on my tuition fees, all in hope that I can do well, go to a reputable secondary school, then junior collage and finally enter a good university. only then will I be able to find a job that pays well and has reasonable welfare. I would be the cream of the crop.

And now i let them down. :(

What's gonna happen now?

I don't know. I'm confused. I'm scared.

Oh diary, help me, please.

Amelia
