Countdown: 3 days

3 more days to JCTs! And I haven't covered everything. Great. Sometimes I really want to curse and swear (except that I dun) at the education system. The realisation struck me that day that all we do is understand and memorise the 'standard' answer..we dun really put what we learn into application (or maybe it's just me). It's only during one of those rare chances that I do smth and then 'Ooh this is what I learn in class!' that I truly understand wadever we're studying. Do you know Finnish kids are the smartest so far in the world? They start schooling only at 7-years-old..and they're still enjoying teenager life and stuff.

Compare this with S'pore. There's this girl who's only 6-years-old and is probably even busier than me during school hols. http://www.straitstimes.com/STI/STIMEDIA/pdf/20080601/victoria.pdf

This is plain scary..I'm lucky my parents didn't believe in so many classes at such a young age for me and my bro. I was still running around the playground playing 'Blind mice' when I was Pri 6 haha. Ok enough about education. What's more important is learning and getting to use the knowledge isn't it?

Time to go study soon again..lucky ytd had trng which did help in destressing haha. But I guess I wun be trng next week ba..most probably will see you guys again only on Saturday. JCTs..Prelims..A levels. Argh..it's almost like O levels once again. Only much much more to study.

Btw, I've changed the song now, to the request of someone who said the previous songs made one sian. Haha..okok it's nice to have a change too. Enjoy!
