interesting isn't it? when everyone starts to do what they know they must....and that seems to somehow conflict with the school ideas...like i give a damn for the politics.
like nat said, we're suffering thanks to the politics of the school. and like what beryl said, "they can kneel down and apologize that their programme had failed but then who will return our a'levels?"
after sacrificing so much, there's a time and place to return back to your roots, the beginning of what you started out to do. that is to score for a's.we can have all the activities to distract us once in a while but ultimately the main aim here in a college is to study.
and as a school....it plays many roles. i know yj's not perfect....but sometimes, we just don't aim for perfection and the results and attitude shows.
sometimes i wonder if the teachers are working so hard to make-up for something else....i'm not saying ALL teachers are doing the same thing but it just clicked you know?like do they know that the system's already rubbish and so that's why they are working harder to make up for it.
this morning when i heard over the radio that man bosses of SMEs are going for management classes, i thought, "well, it's about time?!"and wondered if the MOE are going to give these hods and stuffy principles some management classes too....world class education? please, just take a look at your work first then we'll say?one thing about singaporeans is their reluctance to change....and when they are confronted by it, they become afraid.....sometimes deep inside i wish some sort of trouble will break out in school. so as to wake the lot about this generation.
do you know why we skipped class?
because we had bloody well enough of your stupid warped ideas that spending 3 freakin' hours is going to help any....let me list you what i can do with that 3 hours
3:30pm - reached home and bathed (doing question 1- differentiation)
4:30pm - finished transition elements tutorial (completiting question 3 on functions)
4:30pm-6pm - finished thermochem revision exercise (thinking about question 10-n.distri)
6pm-6:30pm - dinner (aiyah, can't finish paper, go home do)
how about that?
in the span of 3 hrs i have completed my chem revision for the day......i feel more statisfied than anyother thing to be proven wrong. that i'm going to miss out during class.
but there are no lectures, no explainations. so what?
like what mr lim said, "are they wrong to skip the leadership course?"
yes....but their reasons are justified....i'm not in the mood to explain why because your ears won't open to other reasons.
have you seen horse racing and ever wondered why they use the flaps to blind the horses? because the jockeys want the horses to trust them and be focused on nothing but running. but ultimately, the glory goes to the one who made the right bet on the right horse.
in simple words....we're just horses on a race track with our teachers(jockeys) and the system (the tract) to lead us...nevermind if some of us lose as long as someone wins. reality is so cruel....
that's why mustangs are valued for their freedom, for centuries they are a symbol of freedom and rebellion because we longed to be like them.
we envy and treasure people who believe in their own ways of thought and actions and scorn at those who suck up to the system that everyone hates.
i'm willing to pay for the consequences of my actions for today....because i believe that these actions are justified....although it is not, in the eyes of the school. but ultimately i'm going to win this bet in my own way....我会活的比赛马还快乐。。。下了赌注,就要赢!
