Just got back from the S14 barbecue, which was only attended by 10 people - as usual though. The usual barbecue stuffs, nothing really special happened. The company was pretty good I guess - joy, laughter and fun.
Ere I forget, I have to make some "noise" about missing the award for the top 10% in school, which was seriously infuriating. Sigh, guess I just underestimated the number of people above me. I got the top 25% merit bursary instead, but sadly, my family income is more than $3000. One thing intriguing, is that why did they make the $3000 a prerequisite condition? Is $3000 really a lot? Why don't they make the award a $150 for people $3000 and more, and $300 for those less than $3000? Why did they deprive us of the reward? For me, even a mere $50 reward motivates me. People might say I'm "yao gui", but shouldn't this serve as a motivation AND reward rather than only A reward? I know I'm complaining, and I should have worked harder, or you might say I'm just not smart enough, BUT, I strongly believe rewarding those students, whose families have income more than $3000, is a good idea. MOE has to fork out more money, but I'm sure they can afford to, or just like what I suggested, cut down on the reward. What's more, shouldn't they have a record of all the family incomes? Sending the letter informing that I got the into the top 25% is just a waste of paper, ink and manpower(even though it'll create more jobs, but these people can be put to better use, I'm sure).
Hmmm, I think that's enough of complaining. Anyway, I'm kind of hooked onto songs by My Chemical Romance(MCR). Though their lyrics may be a little too much for some songs, but their songs are not bad.
All right, it's 0040, and the sounds, the keyboard give out as I type this, are a little soporifc, and I'm getting drowsy and sleepy. Not forgetting about tomorrow's training which is in the morning. So, I think I'd better go to bed. 'Till next time.
We'll dance alone to the tune of your death...
