Studies

"last time, i didnt want to go overseas to study, but my cousin told me that if u went to US to study, it would be a totally different experience from here. he said, "if u want a challenge, you should go to the us". and that has made me reconsider where i want to study"

seriously overseas is a totally different experience. being on your own. problems cropping up everywhere. u really learn independence..

and i think you'll get forced to grow up faster. either that or you totally degenerate. i've seen really immature people in my school. i might actually just call them like the dregs of the upper class society. not good enough for a meritocratic system, but rich enough to come to this school. and then u learn a lot about the world and people.

it has just been 1 month but it feels like forever to me.

i've been made to grow up superfast here. learn to make decisions. choose wisely. decide your path. course selections is a ruthless process. uni placement makes u really fear the future.

and then when the principal spoke to us, esp us singaporeans, she feared that we are all too young to be able to handle the temptations and the pressures of uni life. since like we will be at least 2 yrs younger than everyone else.

the true test of maturity. whee~

frankly, i don't regret coming to study here. i just wished that i had all of you guys around still.
