First of all, I'd like to start off by saying, Congratulations to everyone who was able to endure such a long and hellish journey. I'm glad we were able to reach the finish line, and I'm sure most of you got the grades you desired. To those who didn't, it's alright. Not everything goes as planned. This was Allah's plan, after all, so have faith in him because I know he has something good waiting for all of us, which is why we should be patient.
Now, the real reason I'm writing this is because when I joined this community, I thought it was a safe place to let out our vulnerabilities and not feel embarrassed by them in the slightest.
But from yesterday, all I've seen that most people were very ungrateful. I thought that when the results were out, everyone would stay humble and comfort those who needed it.
Instead, what surprised me was that those who got C's and D's and needed the reassurance were the ones reassuring the people who got A*'s and A's.
For example, I have a friend group of four people, including me. Friend A and I got the same results (average results, where we both got D and were pretty sad about it), but instead of us being comforted, we had to comfort our other two friends (One of them got 4 A*, 1 A and 2 B. The other got 6 A and 1B) who genuinely did well, and both Friend A and I were really happy. But they heavily disappointed me by saying they did very bad and were angry with their results.
And they were saying things like "imagine having a B.". "I'm so dissapointed,"
It's okay to have expectations and be sad because they weren't fulfilled. But it doesn't excuse the fact that you can rub your results in front of people who got worse than you. They were mocking about getting a B, where I got 3 B, and I was genuinely happy with it until they said that
Before you begin defending yourself by saying we come from poor backgrounds and our parents worked hard for the olvl registration money, buddy, I'm also in the same situation. You don't see me whining now, do you? I know I disappointed my parents, and that's my cross to bear. And my friends aren't poor, there are like hella rich people
Trust me, I cried for two hours after seeing the D and don't come here saying I didn't work for it because I fricking worked my butt off for it.
It's genuinely sad to see the toppers not having the basic humbleness installed in them and were arrogant about it underneath. We get it. You guys got A's and A*'s, and congrats to you , but if you had posted your results by saying something like "Alhamdulillah got my desired results" and then gave comforting reassurance to people who got less, maybe I wouldn't have been this mad but no, yall posted your results saying "Should I get a retake?" Yea mate, go for it, waste your money. "My results are really bad." they're so bad that harvard University has blacklisted your name
But to those who were just happy sharing their A's and A*'s and weren't arrogant about it underneath. CONGRATULATIONS TO YALL, YALL DESERVE IT.
I'd like to end this by saying. I'm sorry if I was rude and harsh. But I'm not in the slightest bit sorry if you got offended, because if you were offended, you're one of those people.
