I missed my exam =(

The enthusiasms and optimisms I had for today came crashing down the moment I first opened my eyes in the morning. It was a bright and sunny morning. Suddenly, I was jolted from my bed. I quickly grabbed my handphone and stared at its blank screen. "KAO! HP no batt!" I rushed to the living room and saw 10am displayed on the wall! I was late for the Analog Systems MST test! It had began just one and a half hours before and it just ended. Before I went to bed last night, I had presetted the handphone alarm to 7am. Apparently, its died on me sometime in the morning! Without hesitation, I changed into a fresh set of clothes, sprayed on some Ferrari and grabbed a cab to school.

.

In school, I told the reason to the admin staff located at the School of EEE office. She told me that I should have been smarter by bluffing my way out for a retest. i.e to get a MC as a valid reason for approval. She added that that is a confirm 100% retest for that. Inside I was struggling for my next course of action. Should I just fake and MC or should I just write a letter to explain my absence?

.

I hence sought my A.S. tutor, Mdm Safura for advice. Personally, she was willing to give me a retest on the same day as she feels that I can be trusted for not "smuggling" the answers from my other classmates. However, it's against the school rules and both of us can be in trouble if I somehow managed to coerce her into giving me a on-the-spot test. So, She just accompanied me to the office and I wrote a letter of explaination to the Vice-Director (VD) of SP to explain my predicament. I hope that the VD can see through the apparently simple reason for my absence, and also hope that he can understand the fact that I was brutally honest with my explaination and I do not wish to deceive anyone in order to get my grades back.

Right now, I'm having this shitty feeling inside me. Just got no mood to do anything, not even thinking of studying for tommorow's Logic Design test; I am still contemplating the aftermaths of my actions. Is honesty really that important? Or grades are that all-deciding? Next Monday, I'll get to know the answer...
