Quit school

21 03 2006
Here I am, at bloody 5.22 a.m., writing my marketing case analysis assignment which was due on 17th Feb. Yes, that was a month ago. And I’m not ashamed to say that I had no intention of doing it, much less handing it up. The reason being that this assignment is non-assessed and thus, carries no marks. And me, being of very practical nature, decided that this assignment was rather worthless and would have been a waste of precious time. Especially since it came during a busy period.

Why am I sacrificing my sleep to do the assignment now, you might be asking. Well. My tutor singled me out after class last week to question me about the assignment and, like most other teachers I’ve known, was calculative, pushy and lacked tolerance & understanding. Moral of the story is: give equal respect to all assignments, even if they don’t contribute a freaking 0.01% to the semester’s grades because teachers are gei gao and the smallest things in life matter to them. Enough said.

Shudders run down my spine when I consider the thought of having six more semesters to go before I actually graduate. It’s only been a little less than two semesters and I have entertained the thought of quitting school. I’m sure every undergrad feels the same way.

Can’t believe I’ll say this Daph but, I miss your wit. I’ll even look pass the fact that it comes delivered with a voice very much like Nanny Fine’s.

Hang in there, Gladys. And Ting, how are the interviews going? Kel, stay out of trouble.
