Well, today has been a great great day. I was feeling really great because of some news and everything, but my dad came today from south portugal (where he has been working, and he comes every 15 days). My mum told him, tuesday I think, by the phone, that I was going to repeat the 12th year, so I can raise my grades, develope my skills WITH DECENT PROFESSORS, and have DECENT GRADES as I did two years ago... I knew my dad thought I was going to Uni this year, even though I had told him I wasn't but he didn't understand and kept thinking I would pass the year. I told my mum and granny that my dad thought I was going to pass when I wasn't; and ya, my dad asked my mum how the exams went and she just said "they didn't. she's going to repeat the year didn't you know?"...and he didn't like it.
He arrived today and he's kinda down about it. :/ I think I disapointed my dad. I already am one year late because I changed course in my 10th year, to arts, so I repeated the year, in another course, and it was a great year. I had high grades and it was, also, because I was repeating some subjects that every course has (such as portuguese, english, maths...). So, I'm not really concerning. I'm 19. I'm not old! I'll get in Uni (if everything goes well, and I pray that it will) when I get 20, and get off Uni by the age of 24. Is it that bad? I was supposed to be in Uni by the age of 18...but to tell you the truth, I don't think I would be able to. I was too young really...now I'm more mature, and Uni is another "world". I'm happy I'm getting into Uni older than I was supposed...but I hate disapointing people. :(
*sobs* There goes my "happy-great-moment" for some moments. :/ I just hope he gets to understand I couldn't go to uni with this...grades.
