UPSR - Is it really not a big deal ?

Salam -

Nov 23, 2017 hari keramat untuk parents yang 1st time ada anak ambik UPSR. It was a usual day, hubby sent them to school ; Nafiz and Nawfal. Lepas tu kami hantar Nasuha ke sekolah we got to know Nasuha pun ada report card day on the same day. Hubby told teachers may not be attending sebab nak ambik result UPSR abang kat sekolah. After that, we went breakfast out; dengan Nayla sekali rasanya. Makan pun tawar je rasa. Balik rumah, solat dhuha, hajat baca surah yasin rasanya and then cari selawat tafrijiyyah. Itu la perasan seorang ibu. Always keep high standards for anything she does.

Hubby datang menjengah kat bilik suruh siap, omaknya tak sanggup lagi nak bertindak..nak baca lagi ayat apa2 yang boleh..siap imagine the slip result tu fading tukar huruf jadi "A" semua. Macam citer drama omputeh. Anything goes...hoping for miracles. Hubby dah sakat nak check kat phone. SMS the number, tapi tak dapat info..hish laki teman memang kaki kacau..potong steam. I said I dont want to know. And post result on social media, knowing him. Kalau result anak bagus, dia yg paling kuat mencanangkan kegembiraan. Tapi yang tungkus lumus nak bagi anak ni lepas kita la. Tapi itulah aturan Allah, gigih dia tempat lain which I'll tell you after this.

Around 10 am, pegi la ambik result Nasuha. Tengok result dia pun okla..tak zaman abg long dia. Kalau tak dapat 100% macam naik singa satu badan. Buat careless mistake dah macam criminal. Itula bezanya, dengan Nasuha kitorang (ME esp) cool je. No worries ..long way to go.

Lepas tu terus gerak ke sekolah, parents dah ramai tunggu . Masa jalan, bunyi phone suami, incoming message. Laki ku pandang phone, dengan tekak gulp pastu senyum. I dah agak dah, mesti dia dapat result UPSR tu. Dia senyum so ok la tu, but how ok is the ok...crazy makkk....

Bila sampai dewan masa tu speech CEO, he tell all the system peperiksaan and repeat his speech we listen at majlis graduasi, majlis penyampaian Nawfal , and this event again. Ok la I understood. Mana sempat nak buat version macam2.

Habis je, itula masa dinantikan.. Name called up by the angka giliran. One after another, bila sampai "M" nama Muhammad Nafiz tak dipanggil2. Husband dah bagi muka question mark? Me Ok je nama tak panggil because I can't imagine getting the result. Bila dah habis , cari guru HEM. Sib baik nama dia ada dalam paper yg dia pegang.

And treng teng teng, rupanya anak bertuah ni dapat good result. Suruh ke depan jumpa reporter. Gila kaw..dah dalam awangan suruh cakap impromptu. Memang tak jalan la Nafiz and mak dia. Dua2 kaki introvert. We dont express our opinions spontanouesly OK ! Merapu la kmi depan camera tu.

Well, anyway it was unusual feeling. Dalam sekolah tu 6 orang je dapat 6A, and he's the only one in the class. Although Nafiz ni memang la selalu dapat hadiah kat as sofa, but for me dia dapat sebab competition tak tinggi. You dont compete with other races and number of people is so small. What surprised us, he didn't pass his entering assessment to this school. Ingat lagi dapat msg tu masa tgh tea time kat rest haji tapah. Rasa luruh jantung anak tak lepas masuk sek. Nak hantar dia ke mana? Nak masuk sekolah biasa kena turun naik pejabat.

Masa ni la I learn lifetime values from my husband. He learned the values of parenting from of his parents. Parents dia tak pernah putus asa nak bagi anak dema belajar walaupun budak tu mmg tak lepas mana2 institusi tinggi. Cuba sedaya upaya masuk giat mara la, kadet school anything asalkan depa grab skills untuk masa depan. This is when I see my husband willing to do anything to get the best education for his kids. Dia cakap kita buat surat rayuan, pegi jumpa guru besar apa sahaja. And for me, I had to tebal my muka call cikgu sebelah rumah tanya mcm mana nak masuk sekolah kebangsaan. Dah la buat last minit, sebab kejar kerja kat office. Bila January, baru nak buat semua ni. Ingat lagi cikgu tu cakap, masa mesyuarat hari tu deme terima sorang budak SRI masuk S2A tapi dia dah buat awal2 lagi. So I got the point...

Which finally we passed through the hardship and now the victory.

Good Job dear son, this is just beginning to open up the opportunities for you to choose your next phase.

Another happiness smile from him..

"Mak ..apizz sekolah mana ?" That was a week after school open. Dia dah gelisah tak masuk kelas lagi. Masa ni rasa nak nangis tak sampai hati tengok anak sedih. 

Nawfal dah pakai baju sebab dia tahu dia dapat masuk , tunggu bagi tahu nama kelas sahaja.

And this is Nafiz. Once we know he was accepted, cepat2 pegi kedai cari baju sekolah. Nampak tak muka happiness, tadi muka gelabah.
