"The TEM8 result should be arrived tomorrow.” as some students predicted yesterday. Oddly enough, this sentence haunted me all through last night.    The qualm of the result caught me and thus stimulated me to have an early rising. I connected to the internet in an attempt to get timely news from my classmates about TEM8 on the chat tool. All of a sudden, my friend called me and exclaimed loudly” I passed in the TEM8!" then I asked her gingerly” How about me? Could you take a look at the list?"     Then my friend responded me via text-message"Congratulations!You Passed!"     Even though the result of TEM8 does not live up to my expectation, yet I still showed my gratitude to my language ability. Looking back this year, I was wavering on the dilemma-go abroad for further study or commit myself to career? What is my objective in life before marriage? What kind of qualities do I take pride in and excel others? I kept asking myself and even backed myself to corner-In the end,I have to forsake something, like a two-year standing relationship-which greatly disgruntled me on account of my abrupt choice.      Up till today, I still hold a vague notion whether the time spent on future deliberation deserves that much. Though I was old enough to know that the mark itself did not bear a reliable testimony in one’s ability, I could sense the aching void of my English study and felt repentant enough to compensate for the waste of time in the past one year.      Hopefully, the Tem8 result marks another turning point in my life which heralds a new stage life in intellectual and career pursuit in my life! Go for it, work for it and embark on it tomorrow!

Congratulations! Gaining what we struggled for is an extraordinary feeling, called cherishing.
