Well, at least the school shows some much-needed grace for us students at the timely moments - I'm now at home studying for the rest of the prelims during the school holidays. I will do well for the rest of the papers, because there's no excuse to do badly when you are given time to study.
The piece of junk paper is valuable - it gets you anywhere and a basic qualification for higher education, which I was aiming for anyway. I hope to get a qualification in medicine, which poses certain benefits and prestige:
1. Medicine is cheaper when bought from the suppliers directly, so a doctor can give medicine and treat his own family members or other people for free, at his discretion provided that he is qualified to do so.
2. 'Love thy neighbour as thyself.' Best job that is in line with God's word, I reckon.
3. Good pay. In the UK it is said that the doctors are well-paid by the government hospitals, so, why not?
That being said, I still recognise Singapore as the place that I truly belong to, and when my services are called on, I'll be there. But for now, it's the piece of filthy O-level paper that I have to get past.
