I am beginning to be disgusted by the ugly side of this realistic society.....
I can be very frank........
but i'm pretty certain this is e recipe n equation to survive in this working circus...
money + HIGH education = success
and e definition of high education not only depends on e no. of certs u have...
but also how prestigous ur alma maters are............
now comes another qns......
are students from local unis better then students from private unis???
well based on e admission criterias... spontaneously it differentiates local uni undergrads n private uni undergrads......
but does it give a reason to discriminate private uni students???
bringing u back to several yrs ago where streaming in pri schs still operates.........
e differentiation between EM1 n Em3 students...........
Discrimination based on education levels is so prevailing in this country......
resulting in senseless comparison between parents........
concurrently asserting tremendous pressure on students..........
It may be due to e fact that we're a meritocratic country.......
however i feels that e greater part of it boils down to e mentality of S'poreans...
S'poreans are so practical.........
sometimes do u wonder wad are u working so hard for?
to meet ur parent's expectation??
for ur own future?
wad future are u planning n working towards to?
bcos of e practicalism in this society...
its hard to strike a balance between ur interests n work.........
looking at e popularity of uni courses such as biz n accountancy.......
it is pretty obvious many prefer the 'safer' path......
whereby there will be plenty of job opportunities..........
i have another qns...........
do u wan a job where u have great interests in but low pay or a high-salary job but u're not happy with it at all.........?
many ppl... including me will jump into a decision n conclusion..... which is to seek for our ambition.... regardless of money.........
however........ when u tot a job of ur interest will make u happy n satisfied wif....... u're wrong...
bcos by then........ ur interests n passion will die off as u will be getting sick wif e job.......
e job will slowly diminish ur initial passion n drive to do wad u like
dats wad my colleagues told me...........
cruel it may sounds...........
but it is pretty true...........
there is no such a thing called e 'ideal job' cos working is def not e ideal way of living....
Money is definitely not everything.......
but it is definitely something that u cant forgo........
do not hesitate to do wad u wan...
we only live once in this world...
even though our life may be in a mess aft soughting for wad we wan...
but at least...... we've done wad we wanted to do......
i believe life is all abt achieving, attaining... n sharing.........
putting material well-being aside...
rmb there's always a thing called Love in this world..........
its e impt element which keeps me gg strong to survive in dodgy n unpredictable circumstances...
I can live w/o money...
but i cant live w/o love...
i cant live w/o my loved ones... friends n family
no matter how tough e future may seem......
il faced it...... il handle it......... il show wad im made of.........
