title : Times have changed...
![]() copped this from my cousin's blog. times really have changed. We don't look th same, although meiyi in this photo looks like meixian haha. She'll deny it vehemently though. HAHA. so fast. all 3 of us have taken our Os, and have gone on to our respective tertiary educations. however, i'm th only one of th 3 of us that has gone on to a polytechnic. sigh, sometimes i really feel damn dumb. everyone in my whole extended family (& that's quite alot) has gone on to a jc. only i didn't. cos i dropped AM. i'm really not a math person. so i'd die in JC. even my 12 JAE choices, 11 of them are media or design. (these don't involve math) the last one was... engineering. Clean Energy @ SP. 17 pts was th cutoff point, so I put that as my last one. cos even w/out minus-ing cca, i had 16. so i felt safe. but i really really didn't wanna go in CE. Luckily, I didn't. Or I'd suffer for 3 years. I'm debating, to take French or not in poly. But I'm not even sure if SP does offer French. One of the few reasons I wanted to go NP at first was that they offered Double Diplomas. I could graduate with a Dip in Mass Comm & a Dip in French. Oh well. No use crying over spilt milk. Or shutting th gate aft the horse has bolted. But I do feel dumb, when people ask where I'm headed. which JC? The relatives directly ask. I'm a staunch believer that you should not succumb to peer pressure. But despite that, i folded. So, now what? Sigh. Enough crap about me. Think of the world. Sometimes, i do stop and think, and reflect. Why was I given the gift of the gab? Why was I given the love of reading? God must have given these gifts to me for a reason. But, why, as to that I still don't have the answers. I believe that everyone has a greater purpose in life. But what, we don't know. The recent calamities have had me reflecting. what if 2012 did happen? (I haven't watched the show yet ><) So many are suffering. What can we do? I think we really need to take massive action. Our little efforts aren't helping enough. We need to find alternative resources for fuel. Countries need to limit their pollutions by at least 70% for the world to be a much better place. But will they do it? No. Why, you may ask. Well, that's cos, Cutting down=Loss of revenue=Loss of power. Power's a damn strong incentive to keep polluting the Earth. But, Let's ask ourselves. Is it worth it? Think about it. xoxo, Kayleen. |
