I love being an attention whore. *points to custom status*

Anyways, crying even though you did well is just pathetic. People already feel shit enough with a shit mark without someone else crying because they've just missed full marks. Grow the fuck up.

"2. you really did cry even though you got an excellent mark."


excellent is relative, if it wasn't an excellent mark for her she had every right to cry, also if the test was 'relatively' easy 42/48 or watever may have been a bad mark..if she got 5/48 and still came 6th/16 would it have been ok for her to cry?

 

[Loz#1]

The point is, even if you're so overwhelmed with a good mark, why cry? Don't rub it in when there may be people around who got a shit mark.

 

[nike33]

good mark for who? a good mark for you for example, could be a shit mark for someone else with higher expectations

 

[Loz#1]

You have no idea what's going on.

If someone gets a good mark and someone else gets a shit mark, someone else may be very upset. If someone starts crying because of their good mark, it may make someone else feel as though they are rubbing it in, in a weird sort of way.

^^^ so why not cry if u want to because of someone else? you shouldnt have to hold back your true feelings just on the case that "someone" might feel bad. anway crying comes naturally u dont just decide hmmm im gonna cry .. like hello

 

[Loz#1]

Like hello, I'm going to admit you have a point. But not everyone is like that. I went to school with a few people who loved to make others feel shit when they got good marks.

umm do you mean someone gets a mark they are happy with ie a good mark for them

or do you mean a good mark as relative to the someone else and they are dissapointed with the good mark as relative to the someone else

Yes, people like that. And that's the point that someone in this thread was trying to make (I can't remember the poster). Good on you if you get a good mark, but at least try and contain yourself around those who didn't. It's just polite.

Why cry over tests for? ...its a waste of tears ^___^

 

[skypryn]

agreed merforga. but this issue is really a personal vendetta with me. everyone who cries when they get a good mark always just needs an excuse for someone to ask what they got. my whole f*ing year does this every single test. like loz said, grow the fuck up. anyway, regardless of expectations, i made the point that 42/48 even if 5 others got 48/48 will only be like tiny % behind. and then what about the other 10 people below you. therfore, it is a good mark.

if you cry for not coming first, your expectations are too high. not that high expectations are a bad thing, but you've let them take control of you. until next time, take care of yourselves....and each other.

if someone that did usually get 48/48 and came first was the one that got 42/48 it wouldnt be a good mark for THEM and hence have every right to be disapointed

 

[skypryn]

to be dissapointed - yes. to cry - no

 

[*girl04*]

^^^ if i stuff up majorly i would cry at home n stuff, but never have i known anyone ( that i can think of) that would cry at school coz of an exam mark. get upset yes, cry no

 

[Ragerunner]

I laughed when I failed all my half-yearlies -_______-;;

Probably because I expected it...

 

[nike33]

"to be dissapointed - yes. to cry - no"

personally i would never cry over an exam but i possibly may be dissapointed via an outcome, different people may express their dissapointment in different ways, some cry, some get angry, others bottle it up...why should you tell someone how to / not to react in certain situations

Never enter an exam room without a cyanide pill.

^^^ wtf?
