Missed Graduation By The Smallest Of Margins

Its like missing the World Cup after losing out on goal difference. Only this time, the wait is 8 months long, not 4 years.

Its like being suspended for a Champions League final for a stupid red card. Only this time, I'm appealing to TARC, not UEFA.

Its like Zidane in the 2006 World Cup. Put in a fantastic performance, and during his last match as a pro in the final, got himself sent off and France lost. Only this time, my dreams are still alive.

Its like Ah Beh playing futsal. Ran through the whole defense, with the keeper away from goal, the target wide open, pulls the trigger and . . . HITS THE POST !!! As a result, we had a "half-time" break, because everybody laughed their butt off. Only this time, its not funny.

If you have no idea of what I'm talking about, no worries.I have it all summed up.

To sum up my feelings after getting a C- out of 4, One simple word-disappointed. It was that close, having passed the rest of my nightmare papers and now, this one, one grade below passing grade. So close,yet so far.

I've submitted my appeal. Not sure if it will do any good. Either way I'll go consult the college counselor soon.
