Lesson learnt today, life is not fair.
How many times have you felt that way?
I feel that RP had taught me a very valuable lesson, that life is indeed unfair.
I’ve learnt to accept such is the reality existent in the world I reside in. Unfair it may be, but you got to say that’s life ain’t it?
The grading system in RP sucks big time but I got to admit, theoretically the PBL approach to learning is a good idea. However, the keyword in that sentence would still be THEORETICALLY! The flaws of the system have led to feel dejected and lose hope in my work. Lose the fervor in learning and all the zest I used to embrace at the beginning of the day. Is the work worth my effort? I know learning is beyond grades but these are just ideals! Reality shoves that theory away; in its place it is just a meritocratic basis on which we attain our life goals.
I really ponder on the goals in my life, are they really for me or for the surreal society I dwell in.
It is a food for thought. Are all our lives for ourselves or for the milieu we inhabit. Think for once in our life, really cogitate and examine our lives.
Pitiful they may be.
