Maybe it wasn't enough...

I really tried my best this year, for 11 months. I did everything I can and what I can't do. Even in my lowest point I kept trying. I just wanted to make my parents proud of me and I didn't want to feel the shame of failing, maybe if I didn't actually try this hard I wouldn't feel this bad after failing but the fact that I did my best and still failed is just bad. Sometimes I think what is the thing I could do that would prevent me from failing this bad In achieving my goal, I can't find any answer. Everything I did was almost perfect.....
