hmmz....in singapore, if you are a geek, you'll be kinda worshipped~really, good grades=pratically everything, everythings soooo competitive in singapore...*stress* whether you get into the best primary school (the way parents "fight" their way to get a reservation for their children, the community works they do for the school, but thats only for the famous schools like nanyang's or raffles', for the neighbourhood schools 2 years ago, some have only barely 10 children in a class), and thats not the end of troubs yet, theres still the best secondary school, and yet after that the best junior colleges (this yr's hell, the person enroling for the top JC needs to get at least ALL A1s for his/her cambridge 'O' level examination combination....that'll mean the top of tops go to THOSE JCs)and theres still university &/further studies overseas....*sigh*~i did not make it to a JC of course but i can enrol in 1 of the mid-last range if i wanted...it juz reminds me too much of secondary school life (which i dont like--i hate taking chinese*shudder*)so i enrolled into a polytechnic--a school where you learn work skills like engineering, business studies or medical sciences....ahhhh~~the trials of life~~
and i got sick while doing the "tea break" sig juz now, barfed out everything that went into me since lunch--the curry puff, dinner of rice & salmon & veges, it was awful (that neednt be said~:P)
