Just went to the Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Office to deliver Prof Krishna's card. Many thanks to those who took the effort to come back to school for the card signing session :)

Guess what! it's XMAS! haha as if you guys do not already know.

Rainy Xmas eve added a tinge of melancholy to the festives.

and the RESULTS...
results were out yesterday. You know, the funny thing about getting a degree is not so much of a proof that you have mastered an essential set of knowledge which would stay with you for life. The truth (which we all know) is we're only going to remember, perhaps, 1% of the things we're taught. Nonetheless, university education, to me at least, is broadening my horizon (cliche 1) and engineering, in particular, is the training of the mind (cliche 2). I'm a cliched person.

On that note, we are inevitably faced with the stress of doing well and that seems to defeat the purpose of education. We are all so familiar with the complaints on the education system being too factory-like (and we're luncheon meats waiting to be packed into cans), too elitist, too pragmatic etc. Changes are visibly taking place in the education scene but yes there will still be concerns over when the education utopia can be achieved in Singapore.

PERHAPS, education is the responsibility of oneself. Whoever says one can only be educated within the premises of a school ought to be put to death by getting buried under textbooks. Anyway Just 4 Laughs :)
