hullo duck. anyways so the mudder irritatingly crap summative (test, to the uninitiated) was yesterday and in my school, they don't return test papers. so there is this feedback session after the paper for students to find out where they went wrong. i usually don't attend those sessions cuz its just, irrelevant, y'know? but i attended yesterdays's session as i know in my bones i am gg to fail this one. but anyways, so when the lecturer was gg thru MCQ section, it was somewhat annoying. i mean, he would say smth like the answer to qeustion 34 is A and the people around me who got it right heaved very audible sighs of relief. i mean, people, its only ONE mark. its not a life and death thing. its just so secondary school i find. no its more primary schoolish. watever. and then today we had our first lectures on the cardiovascualr system. there is this indian lecturer who doesn't give notes during the lect but usually does so after a few days. so after the lect we were packing to go home and boris noticed a bunch of pple runnning up to the comp to save the powerpoint presentations on their perrenial neck accessory. its like they really RUNN up to the comp. and then boris says 'well that's what differentiates the As from the A minuses and so on'. but the point i am trying to make here is simple: and they call me the kiasu singaporean.the level of kiasuism in my school is sometimes, amusing? but sometimes its just annoying. i mean, honestly i don't have an issue with these pple. its like, if that's the way u want to lead your life, its fine. i simply don't have a say as much as u don't have a say in the way i lead mine. but sometimes they encroach on alot of things and it is at that point where i really think someone should just... i dunno do what. tell them to get a grip on things or smth like that. seriously, and they call ME the kiasu singaporean. sheesh. sometimes i feel like i fled singapore only to find myself in mini singapore.
