Just thought I’d post real quick about whats been going on lately. Yesterday, I registered to retake my A Levels again. I dont know why it took me so long to have the initiative to do it again. I guess, when I started working, my entire perspective changed and wasnt able to give my whole attention to it.
But the stigma of living in a country where the paper is more revered compared to experiences, really makes one feel the sting. I hated the fact that the paperless were labelled as having of a lower intelligence and such. But anyways, I asked around for recommendations about for flexible and affordable part time courses (having had bad experiences at private schools)
Hizam, my cousin recommended that I register at the ITE since he has taken the course there for some months. Coincidentally, he’s a proud father of a baby girl now. So congratulations to you Zam! :)
Anyhow, I chose the following subjects
- Economics
- Geography
- General Paper
- Literature
- Malay
I studied sciences back in Jurong Institute, which was probably a mistake since I was not very good at these subjects but was just too strong willed at that time to consider taking the subjects that I was good at. I reasoned that I could have more choices when I was done with it. Little did I know that I would do so badly in them that I couldnt proceed anymore.
But thats the past. I’m really looking forward to starting the classes again – Wish me all the luck :)
Nice :) It’s fun to be back in school , i assure you! :P
Good luck and have fun!
CK : Just a few weeks to go now, I cant wait to go! My only qualms would be the timing though. I went though it before, a full time job coupled with night time classes. It was tiring to say the least.
DJ : Thank DJ! I’ll try to have fun. I hope ..*crosses fingers*
