we start of in kindergarten where we are pushed to stop playing and learn to read and write.then we are shoved into primary school when we have to mug our childhood away to get a good grade fer the PSLE. then the folks say that you have to get into a good sec school cuz it will mould the future.ugh- i missed out on that part-went to nieghbourhood school. 'the hood'. went through alot there. then they tell you the ball is now in your court and you have to kick it towards the goal. they only think you dod well if you qualify for a JC. when i did- my teacher said that i scored the goal-cheesy but thats the way it is in s'pore. then some go to poly or some like me go to JC. the biggest and rattiest rat race of my life! bleagh. we are rushed through an arduous 2 year course so that you can fulfill your aim of coming to the JC in the first place : to get yo ass to a uni asap! but then what? the education in s'pore continues like this: you get to a uni and try to get a place in the course that is the most marketable and the couse that is in demand so that you will be able to find a job. a good one at that. a job that pays well, and the hell with the satisfaction. so then you mug your ass in the uni SOMEMORE and you graduate with hopefully an honours cuz anythin less aint worth that much see? then you most prob look for a job. the endin in s'pore is simple and is stupid.check this out:
THEY WORK SO HARD TO EARN THE MOST POSSIBLE AMOUNT OF MONEY TO BUY THINGS THEY CANNOT AFFORD (and live in debt) SO THAT THEY CAN IMPRESS PEOPLE THEY DON'T EVEN LIKE.
