Hi guys welcome back to another episode of #LifeAtTSL.
Today we are reunited once again!
Bye Brenda.
And today we will be kaypoh-ing our colleagues' results.
'O' Levels that is.
So we're going to see if they were smart,
because in my eyes, they're quite stupid.
Let's see how well they did. Let's go.
I didn't say that.
- Hello, hello what's happening. Hi. hi. - Hello Leah.
You know what's happening.
Yeah I know. Talk so loud some more.
So welcome back to another episode of #LifeAtTSL.
I hate these episodes by the way.
Why? We get to know more about you.
So in this episode we are kaypoh-ing your 'O' Level results
- Okay, okay. - Yup.
So you know that your 'O' Level results is available for view in the
- Oh is Singpass right? - In the Singpass app.
I know I got the Singpass app, by the way I'm a very responsible adult.
I know your education route.
- Okay so what's my education route? - Right so after CHIJ, you were an IJ girl,
You went to... Wait wait wait wait.
It's a Catholic school. It's a JC (Junior College).
Ah, Catholic Junior College.
Ya it's a Catholic school, it's a JC What school could it be?
What school could it possibly be?
JC cut off, um...
2? Everything at least a 2 is it? On average.
Around there.
If it's L1R5 right.
Multiply by 2, is 12.
Then Catholic school, affiliation minus 2.
- Correct, correct. - So 10 points.
Oh wait, CCA minus 2.
- Correct, correct, correct. - So 8.
- Wow, wow. - Wait you got 8?
Is minus 2, (then) minus 2.
I only got one A1.
For all my subjects, I only got one A1.
I don't even know if I have one A1.
Oh it's because in my school, not that it is normal,
but I think my expecations for myself of my parents is at least get a few A1s.
But I only got one A1 so I was like it's fine it's fine, Combined Humanities?
- Okay but the thing is that I procrastinated a lot. - Wait ah, wait ah.
Can you don't skip the Chinese please?
- Why you purposely (skip). - But it's not counted in my L1R5.
Still, can you please don't skip.
Okay I would like to say that I'm very proud that my Chinese got C5
and not C6 okay.
It's one (grade) above the expected grade for passing so I think that is good enough.
To be honest my secondary school is like
it's like no matter what school you go to or whatever it doesn't really matter one.
Like when you enter.
Our next target is the one of the smartest person in the company.
I think he's the smartest because he is always correcting me, correcting you,
- Correcting every body - Every body else. That's right.
You already know who it is. The golden boy of TSL
What.
Let's try and guess.
Oh no.
- Okay literature. - I'm a very average (student).
- Oh, you're guessing my subject combination is it? - Yes.
- Oh okay okay okay.
- You took literature. -Uh huh.
- You confirm aced it because you love it. - Okay.
- And your command of English is god. - God-like.
Yes, god-like.
So your English confirm also
- A1. - If can A0, it's A0.
I mean, you correct us all the time, like almost everyday.
- Okay, sure sure sure. - You also correct our viewers many times.
Where got?
"And that Fauzi forehead is still huge as ever!"
Winson Low, I mean your eyesight is great,
but maybe improve on your grammatical skills.
No actually I think you all might be damn disappointed.
You think I'm damn smart but I'm actually not then how?
- Okay let's just get right down to it. - Serious, I'm very average oh my god.
English is B3?
Nooo.
- Wait so list (them) down. - What happened to A0?
- So English you got B3. - Yup.
- Literature you got A2. - Yup.
Additional Mathematics you got C6 wait-
I got C6, which means that I passed.
I'm super proud of that because I have never passed math until 'O' Levels.
It just shows that you came from humble beginnings.
And then from a chicken nugget you become a golden nugget.
I know a lot of people put a lot of pressure on different things,
but I feel like if you're passionate about certain things you need to find time to pursue that.
I think my parents put pressure on me to go to JC only because-
I say back in my time right, (JC was) the more assured route to university.
You know what I mean? But I don't feel like that is the truth now.
- That's true. - Right?
Don't put too much pressure into (going to) the 'right' route because there isn't a right route.
Yes.
- Just follow your own path. - Whatever path you choose is your right route.
What's this?
What's going on guys.
So this is your first time on an episode of #LifeAtTSL right?
- Yes. - We are here to kaypoh...
Your 'O' Level results.
Okay wait before you show us your 'O' Level results we're going to guess what are the subjects you took.
- You're in the tech department right? - Yes.
Damn good at coding.
I feel like coding got a lot of numbers also right.
- I feel like IT need math, need a bit of science. - Science?
I took Combined Sciences, (which) means I also had an elective.
- F&N (Food & Nutrition). - D&T (Design & Technology).
- I took D&T. - Yes!
Oh because design and technology.
I joined for the design, not the technology.
But then you ended up in technology.
I used to make blogskins.
- She is- - She made!
Everyone else take the blogskin from somewhere but she is the place that makes the blogskins.
- No now blogskin is nothing (to her) already.
- She creating a whole new website on her own - TSL OS (Operating System)
So my English I got B3,
my Combined Humanities got A2,
- My Mathematics and Additional Mathematics got A2. - Wow.
- My combined Physics and Chemistry got A2. - Oh my god.
- My English wasn't supposed to be B3. - Then?
So actually right, I have been getting F9 for my English for 2 years straight.
So my teacher told me the reason why your English is not that good is because you don't have a good command of English,
you don't know what is a good command of English.
So she encouraged me to read Harry Potter books because last time I have never read them.
- It helps? - It helped.
Through magic, she got B3 from F9.
This is her grades then she "Wingardium Leviosa!"
Maybe I should start reading Harry Potter books.
I read Twilight but it only made me fantasize more.
- Hello John John!
- Oh no my shoe. - Yes nice to see you.
- We're going to guess the subjects that you took. - Yes.
I give you all a very simple clue.
I am an Arts student with double sciences.
So it's confirm Physics because he always flexes his Physics
When did I flex?
- Okay moments about the pivot is... - There might be electricity, but there's not enough voltage.
(Editor gave up subbing this)
But okay (moving) on to my results.
So English I got A2!
Wait did you have A Math also?
- Yeah I did. - Okay this one A1.
- And my A Math is... A2! - Oh my god you damn smart!
- Okay Physics? - A1.
- A1? - A1.
- A2! - Still.
- Chemistry? - A1.
A2? A1?
- A1! - Oh my god!
So I ended with a gross L1R5 of 10.
- Oh nice. - So after cutting off everything it's 6.
Oh my god John John you damn smart!
No it's okay, I was hardworking.
So for my very for preliminary exams, do you want to guess my L1R5?
- I think 20+. - It was 39.
- Are you serious? - That's almost F9.
- It's like F9 for everything. - Yeah exactly.
I think I was quite lucky because in Catholic High, the teachers were really good.
So for like the rabak rabak (cannot make it) classes right, the school is the kind that will send teachers to rescue you.
Then we just work hard because we make them cry then we feel bad and become hardworking.
Like we will make her cry but if other people make her cry...
Cannot. Only we can.
Okay so now that we have kaypoh-ed many others' 'O' Level results, it's our own one now.
Oh no!
I feel like I have to take back my words from the first time when I said that they are not smart.
- Because we are the stupiaks. - I confirm am the stupidest.
Okay we see yours first.
- English! - Your English is going to be A2.
Then Physics for sure-
Yeah some more he is from Engineering then he's also like another John John.
So your pure Physics is going to be like A2.
I am like the $2 John John.
- Did you take A Math? - I did.
A2.
A2. For A Math.
- Mother Tongue fail. And is Chinese Basic. - This one confirm.
You are actually wrong for most of it.
- Oh really? - Except English.
English A2.
- Math I got... - A2. At least.
- A2. Yes. - That's right.
- And then my Additional Math... - B3?
D7!
I did one question, and then I left.
Huh? Are you serious?
I'm serious.
Actually because I studied Chemical Engineering after that right,
so a lot of engineering, a lot of A Math.
I realised it's so easy.
I got D7 for 'O' Levels, but when I was in polytechnic every year I had Engineering Math, Engineering Math 2, Engineering Math 3
I got B3, A2, A1.
So I realised that it's just about practice.
And then you know, my Chinese is...
It's not even a pass, it's not even like D7 or what. It's ungraded.
It's so low.
I cannot even read Chinese!
Then they ask me to do the 作文 (composition).
- Is it 作文? Yeah right 作文. - Yeah.
Then I was like "有一个风和日丽的早 (one fine morning)"
then I just wrote in English. The whole thing.
So that is the only Chinese (words) I wrote.
- How about you? - Okay mine.
I feel like English B3.
- Okay... - Why why why.
I would drop it lower but sure.
Okay B3.
Then I think you took POA (Principles of Accounting).
- That's right! How did you know? - Yes.
Is it I got the POA face?
Like people say I got the supply chain face I don't know what that means.
I was offended you know?
- So POA, A2. - Okay.
For Chinese, I know your Chinese is not very good.
In the whole (YouTube) team, the only person that can do Chinese content is Amanda.
- That's right. - I'm the worse.
So Amanda is here
I am here. Right?
You are somewhere in the C5 range.
OKay I will raise myself a little higher.
Please don't put me so close to yours.
I remember after I did my English 'O' Level papers, I felt confident.
I tell you, I got a shock when I got my results you know.
- Oh so it's not B3? - I was so upset I got C6.
I got C6 for English!
Because you know they always say you can kind of gauge the results based on how you feel after taking the paper?
- It is, i-it no. - Maybe it's the bell curve.
Then my Combined Humanities, I got a B3.
My Math I got B3 as well, I'm quite proud of it.
Because I was damn bad in math in primary school.
But in secondary school, it's like my favourite subject.
My POA, I got B4.
My Combined Sciences, Physics and Chemistry, I got-
Oh I don't remember this I got a C6.
Oh you don't remember? Maybe you blocked it out.
I thought it was a B something.
I got a C6 for science?
I think I got about 19 points, everything in total. Before subtracting my CCA (points).
Oh my god. See, we say (other) people stupid.
In the end the worse one is me.
- No we are all still in the same company.
- That's true. - So what can you say about grades?
What matters is not really the grades at that point.
It's just one part of your life that you think might be a "make it or break it" (situation) right,
but look at us, we are doing similar things.
Basically our passions drove us to this place and it's not really about the grades.
- I mean, obviously, if you have good grades then that's good. - That's good.
There are more avenues for you to go and explore.
- But afterwards it's really your hardwork and determination. - Yeah.
Not saying that grades are not important,
- It's still important because it determines what happens right after that. - Yes.
But not the rest of your life.
Thank you for watching this episode of #LifeAtTSL! Hope you guys enjoyed this.
And for those of you who are taking their 'O' Level results,
know that results aren't everything and if you feel like you could have done better,
you know what Fauzi always says is: "Don't Be Sorry, Be Better"
So take the next step in your life to improve on yourself you know.
But for now, go and enjoy!
- Yay! School is out! - You finally graduated!
School is out.
