"Yes The Effort Was Worth It After All"


      It was three weeks before our Common Entrance Examination and we had been working hard. I had no time to fool around like I used to, things got serious. I was banned from the television, computer and also my phone. My teacher kept on telling us about the importance of education and about how we need to study a lot more harder. I had a goal in mind that I wanted to pass for Castries Comprehensive Secondary School. Yes, there were some times that I did not feel like studying but I did.
       The big day was here. I sat in my seat amd prayed then began my exam. I kept on believing that I would pass. Common Entrance was over and it was time to play. As Time passed by, it was now the day for our results. I prayed that morning and went to school for my results. " Yes the effort was worth it after all" I had passed for the school on my dreams! Castries Comprehensive Secondary School! I was so elated I started to cry with tears of joy as I could not believe what I had been seeing on my slip. All the studying and sacrifices were all worth it. Not many of my class mates made it to their first choices.
      I decided to call my mom in England and everyone else the great news. Now I was able to get back at my old lifestyle -carefree . The entire day I was blabbing about my results it could not get out of my mind. My mom and dad were so proud of me and I also thanked my aunt for all the effort she had put into me so that I could reach to this point. After all that, I am now at my new school excelling in my school work.
