I think my Chinese tuition teacher is trying to counsel me....
Piano did not go well. Grade 7 aural is horrid. Sing the lower part..... okay, I can't even hear it because the upper part is the more important part and is much louder. Listen and identify the cadence...... choose from perfect, imperfect, plagal, interrupted, and any V7 or 1c - 5 variations..... they all sound the same....
Exam in about 20 weeks.
Okay..... I went blog reading again.....
Don't feel so desolate..... you didn't get into Moot Parliament, but never once was it because your proposal wasn't good enough. You know that. You guys had the best and most well researched proposal. My team's was terrible in comparison.
The whole thing was the fault of the cretin MPP people at GEP branch. You can't blame yourself for what happened. It was completely out of the control of any one of us.
You worked so hard, it was so obvious in your proposal. The failures are those idiots at GEP branch.
As for NCC, that wasn't your fault either. You can't blame yourself for the consequences of what other people did.
You did all you can and tried your best and you can't call that failure and you know it.
Anyway this whole all rounded education thing is stupid. Its the work of kia su idiots who want students to be good at everything. Its stupidity and greed. A bad combination which will have dire consequences.....
The problem is really that because they want us to be good at everything, we don't have time to do the stuff that we really do best. And that is sad. I want to do design work, but that has to be put on hold because of so many other things that I've really got no passion for but have no choice to do... Its also the reason why the world is in a mess. Because people don't get the chance to make a difference in the way they do it best.

Sometimes its so difficult to understand why they can't accept us for who we are.
I guess its up to our generation to fix the world and all the stuff where the previous generation screwed up.
All of us..... we are good at different things..... that's the stuff that make us who we are..... Yeah, maybe I can do all the sciency stuff or photoshop/presentation things..... but I'll never be able to lead a cheering team..... handle a crisis situation like you do..... or score a soccer goal...... or hit a tennis ball.....
If everyone was good at everything and everyone was the same, I guess we would all keep to ourself and not bother communicating with other people cos we already know what they are like. The same.
That's why we can be friends. Because we are different.

well said? only thing I can say about MPP is that me and daryl were the only ones that did any research/concrete work.
staying up until 1 waiting for PPT slides that never get sent SUCKS.
sorry i'm so shallow.
you're right.
I think I didn't realise that.
(referring to last few lines)
You make so much sense.
I hope we get onto the NSC team together. :) It'll be very fun to work with you and hopefully no Kumars or Khuranas.
They haven't found their place in ACSI yet. They're not ACSIans yet, how can we send them in for competition, not to mention may embarass us with their style of speaking.See. Can't believe that went thru my mind.
I'm so selfish. Yet. In this world, how can we not be in some ways? Sigh...
I disagree. You are not shallow. That isn't being shallow. Its just people sometimes lose perspective of things. It happens to everyone sometime, me included..... :)
I don't think the Kumar and Khurana thing is selfish either..... I am of the same opinion as you.... and well the reasons seem justified.....
The MPP thing sound terrible.... maybe you should go talk to Mr Ang about it.... he'll be happy to help...
And yeah, I hope so too :)
