"The dead cannot cry out for justice; it is a duty of the living to do so for them."
Still, everything is about perception.
I have yet to find my motivation.
Is it normal to see one's own flaws and yet do nothing about it?
Some people can plead ignorance.
I plead guilty to laziness.
When I get back my mediocre results I will look back and wonder why I didn't study.
As I have for the past 16 years. Or rather the past 2 years.
I have never been able to study unless I happen to have a personal interest in the subject.
But school has killed that interest. I confess, I still had that interest maybe up to four years ago. And teachers like Kevin Cheng helped revive that interest.
Do we learn to learn? Or learn to score?
It is so much of the latter. Take GP and Econs for an example. Is it not enough that we grasp the concept sufficiently for application to real-life scenarios? What we are spending more than half our time on is not about General Knowledge or facts, but how to present them to SCORE. And what, may I inquire, is the point of school?
In my opinion learning should be for learning sake. Books like Adam Smith's I am Gifted, so are You, what are they about in a nutshell? Sieve out the bullshit from our syllabus. Learn what we need to learn, dont be confounded by the useless information clouding the gems of knowledge. Learn to beat the system. In the end, to succeed in today's society, you have to adjust to its flaws.
And its flaws are glaring. GLARING.
And after typing all these, I realise this is just another mean to procrastinate. The inevitable approaches; you can remain painfully impervious to your fate but you cannot deny it. And soon my life will be full of regret. And the cycle renews itself...
To you reading this: go and mug. Don't be like me. My life is but a negative demonstration. Imagine all those retarded things you wanted to do but didn't because of dangers and risks? That's my life. Don't be like me.
