Had just a brief talk with Xinyi after tutorial today. She told me that sometimes she wonders what is she doing in this course? Does it even suit her? Such questions seems familiar, because i have pondered on them too. So happen that our reasons are exactly the same. We choose to take up this course because it offers a better future (not that the other course are not good), just that Sinagapore is now currently into life science and research, therefore, has the market for it. yada yada. So to speak, for practical reasons, in hope that it offers a good career prospect. But have we ever considered studying something based on interest? Never, well at least not for me. And it's near to impossible to excel in something that you have no interest on. I wouldn't say that i have no interest in science because i use to like it back in secondary school, but my perspective towards it has changed completely. The depth of information fed to you, the concepts learn, seems overpowering. It makes you lose interest, makes you feeling like giving up totally. Like why the hell are you learning all the metabolic pathways for the biochemical reactions in the body? Have i really graps all the concepts learnt in Year 1? Do you get it??? We're studying all this all because of EXAMS!!!!!!!!! And everything gets emptied out once the paper is over. Pointless. But yet, you can't live without a proper educational in Singapore. That PAPER is just so important.
My future suddenly seems so bleak.
To all the friends who comforted me, who showed their concern, and gave encouragement and to those who bought me chocolates, thank you.
