Its over.
Finally able to heave a sigh of relief. What's next? Having the sun scorching your ass on a lazy weekday afternoon, thats what's next. Can try frying an egg on it.
Been really tired these few days. Heading out till late. The night study program back at my alma mater isn't that bad but I see people like me working their asses off late into the night just for that grades. Is it worth it? I guess so. Today they first look at your papers, then your capability.
Money don't fall from the sky just like that. We gotta work hard and bite the dust sometimes. Education, is really money. It's an important value-adder. Without education, what are we? Unable to read, recognize, communicate? I don't know about that. But I know what we have now we should really cherish and give our best shot.
The main focus of schooling is studying, obviously. However, there are other things to do. Other activities, looking at people go by, chasing girls and guys, being in the 'cool' crowd, bashing someone up and what not. That tends to make us shift our focus and we start to whine like little brats.
Being in the 'cool' crowd, doing what they do, don't make you any better. We don't have to change ourselves just to get along with someone. I believe, we change because there is a need, and that need will do us good. Of course, your thoughts cannot be too superficial. Why try so hard? Just sit back, enjoy life, and do what each and everyone of us do best.
Ugly Singaporean, how many times have you heard it? Being a Singaporean myself, sometimes I really think if I have done something I seen. I woke up late today. I tried to hail a cab. I saw that there was no one so it was still all right. Who knew, as I peered into my phone to check the time, a whole queue of people almost evenly spaced out seemed to appear from nowhere. That was fine. I saw a cab approaching. I flagged it, but it stopped for someone before me. It was some auntie who overtook me 'secretly'. Oh man. I gave up, and the bus came. What an encounter. It may sound simple, but it's familiar, isn't it.
We need to spare a thought for others through our actions and words. We don't yak and yak and yak all the time, we don't do stupid things, we don't do and say all these without consideration.
We should try putting ourselves into someone else's shoes.
But please, take off your own shoes first?
