Okay, as you all know, last week was exam week. Everyone (almost) running around with books in their hands, sacrificing their rehat time to study...
This week, teachers start to give back the exam papers, (which I am very pissed cos I could've got 5/6 As by now but only got TWO) people start to become very unsatisfied with their results.
Some got Cs or Dc or even Bs cried.

This post is to those people who come to my blog and actually read the post:

First,
remember:
"At First if You Don't Succeed, Try Try AGAIN".

Second,
Just to comfort you guys, here's a list of famous people with learning disabilities:

I'm sure you guys know who's Abraham Lincoln (also called "Abe" Lincoln) right?
He's the 16th president of the United States (you know, USA),
He only went to EIGHTEEN MONTHS of schooling, and yet, he became the president of USA.

Albert Einstein,
He didn't speak until he was THREE YEARS OLD. He found all those Maths questions hard (like my friend, Sin lols). What happened to him? He is now known for his umm, well, brain juice? lol

Now, this one is surprising, TOM CRUISE.
He suffered dyslexia, so he can't really read. He memorizes the lines and performs on stage.
