realisation... ..

Been doing some research on ADTP, law bachelor degrees, types of law degrees and qualifications etc for the past hour. One thing to say, don't find ADTP that appealing anymore after reading all the fine prints! Instead find myself set on doing A Levels and head to the UK or US for my degree. I have my mind so set on getting out of this shit hole country and get a whole new life somewhere else. I don't know why, i just feel that i need a whole new environment to change my view on things. Especially on studies. Over here, and in singapore, studying is treated as a chore and a burden. But not at other places. There they actually practise EDUCATION. Wanna know the big difference between studying and education? Read this.. link.

Somehow after reading that speech, i have my mind so set on my future paths.. It kinda just help piece together all my thoughts. But, i can't say i won't consider any other options. After all, have to consider many other factors too. Speaking about the difference between studying and real education, i feel that when we are actually enjoy the course we are doing in pre-U, college or University, we will experience real education. NOT from std one till SPM level. That is pure studying. And people who get straight A's there probably won't even be able to survive in the real world. Cause they just know to answer what the examiner wants.

So, i really hope i start my tertiary education with a different attitude towards my work! i WILL treat it differently for sure :) Regarding the article/speech.. i feel so bummed that i would probably have to start my A levels in Jan next year! Life is not all about getting good grades and burying yourself in books, all the more reason i should try and experience something else first. I'm adamant about this but my dad doesn't seem too enthusiastic about it.

Gtg, its 1am and i have school tmrw! oops. nite !
