Hello how do you type pinyin using word? I'm not sure it's just me being a dodo (i wanted to type NOOB but i kinda dislike that term) or whether it's just wordformac. 

Speaking of NOOB, lemme share something with you- something which i've been wanting to talk about actually. 

Whenever i hop onto 74 from school on fridays, i would notice the sudden influx of ACS(I) kids on the upper deck. The bus i take would go past a couple of schools namely SIM and Ngee Ann Polytechnic. I swear to God that there was this once where i almost slapped the kid seated in front of me. He talked with such ego and was boasting to his friends about some online game, where he claimed that he has all sorts of weapons and antidotes and what-have-yous. What made me even more furious was the condescending remark that he passed when the bus stopped in front of NP. "This school's for noobs." And guess what? His friend just went "oh i see..." without even thinking. That annoying kid added on by saying that "polytechnics are for noobs" and that "jc is good". Boy, please get your facts right.

I wouldn't exactly blame him but i would start questioning how he came to such a conclusion. I suppose it could be whatever his parents or teachers have told him. I really feel that Singaporeans should just do away with all these stereotyping, discriminating and marginalizing of all sorts. It's really disheartening to be judged according to the schools we go to. Just take a look at this and tell me how you would feel being marginalized by society.



SR may be ranked as one of the bottom few JCs, but we are not stupid; neither are we losers or guaranteed no future. Like what i told sylvia upon seeing the above, i am proud of SR- always have, always will <3

HAPPY SWEET TWENTYFIRST ABAJA

I'm also DAMN proud of SR. Don't give a damn about those who have these biased opinions in their minds. All that matters is that we know it for ourselves :)

Anyway Mai, I just started this LJ community that I feel is quite meaningful so I was hoping you could join it :) It's about what we think is beautiful to us. The idea struck me when I was talking to my friend and I realised that everyone's idea of beauty is very much different. I hope the community can grow bigger, so we can all see and realize how much we take for granted. Do spread this around for me k? :D

And I don't see you around school anymore :( :( :(
