sometimes, i just think that singaporean culture really sucks. i mean, don't get me wrong,
i love singapore and everything, but sometimes when you trawl the internet and travel and stuff you see the difference in priorities.
like how in other countries, education isn't everything.
or how people are alot more liberal in some cases.
granted, education's one of the things that's made singapore into what it is today, but at what cost?
even though singapore's such a safe, clean, green etc etc place i'm not sure if i'd want to bring up a child in an environment as stressful as this.
if he/she succeeds, then good, but what if he doesn't do well academically?
in singapore, that'd be taken as "oh, GG liao. dunnid to go uni = fail at life." (which is quite true given our local context. how to find job siallll.)
our crazy cost of living, materialistic pressures and kiasu attitude really does suck sometimes.
