So the most memorable moment of my life occurred two years ago when I got to hear news regarding the result of my grade 10. Interestingly, I was in a remote village for having a sabbatical from my studies and I hadn’t given my symbol number to anyone and my results, you know, surprised me. I was surprisingly surprised when I was cropping some plants on the field and my brother called me online to tell me that I had got a good score. So he was actually having a prank with me because he didn’t know my symbol number and my registration number. So I couldn’t believe that I achieved a 3.92 GPA. So I checked by myself, I checked my result by myself and I saw that I achieved a 3.85 GPA on grade 10. And I was like, amazing, I was literally on the cloud 9 when I checked the result and actually all the family members apart from my elder brother were around me and they were like, what’s going on here? Why is he celebrating and I informed all of them that I achieved a 3.85 on my grade 10 and later at the night we had a great fun and party.

So the most memorable moment of my life occurred two years ago when I heard the news regarding the result of my grade 10. Interestingly, I was in a remote village taking a sabbatical from my studies, and I hadn't given my symbol number to anyone. My results surprised me. I was shocked when I was cropping some plants in the field, and my brother called me online to tell me that I had received a good score. He was actually playing a prank on me because he didn't know my symbol number or my registration number. I couldn't believe that I achieved a 3.92 GPA. So I checked my result myself, and I saw that I achieved a 3.85 GPA in grade 10. I was amazed; I was literally on cloud nine when I checked the result. All my family members, apart from my elder brother, were around me, and they were like, what's going on here? Why is he celebrating? I informed them that I achieved a 3.85 in my grade 10, and later that night, we had a great time and party.
