Tbh Singapore has quite a shit education system. So many of us are being sucked into this filter funnel causing so much limitations in creativity and so many drop outs thinking that they are not smart enough. The syllabus is way too dead and the stress put on those poor minds are way too high. Also, why can't the kids do what they like and not drag their future success into every decision you make. There has got to be a reason why Singaporeans are so unhappy and it has got something to do with the way we were brought up in the first place. Money is such an important factor in Singaporeans' minds that they are willing to put aside other factors for the sake of money. Happiness, freedom etc. yes money is rather important in the society where cost of living is high and rising. But we only get one life so shouldn't we factor in our interest as well? Worse still, shouldn't we let our kids decide on what they want to do? 

I'm almost 19 and yes that's still rather young and childish but I have developed a mindset now and I may not know exactly what I want to do in the future but I damn assure you it has got nothing to do with what I'm studying in uni now. And yes my parents are the reason why I am in this situation. Anyways I guess I just have to suck it up and make a change only in the next generation. But it really sucks to know that all my big dreams ambitions and interest would not or might not be fulfilled in my lifetime. So I really hope this would help explain why I haven't really been myself this few weeks/months. Because this girl you're looking at ain't living life the way she want to and will/might never live life the way she want to. Knowing you're dying with regrets sucks. 

Also to my dear Singapore, how can you reject an applicant soley based on her results? This is seriously too much. We're not talking about medicine course or those law and dentisitry type that focuses more on one's academic performance in school. We're talking about bachelor of teaching. Shouldn't teachers be selected based on their passion, interest and capabilities? You rejected a girl who appealed but you called the other for interview when the grades only differ by one grade? That's too much. And I believe I have a better popfolio than the other. This is seriously too much.
