GP. paradox of happiness.

spent the whole day in sch reading gp...
for the first time in my 3 yrs i'm kinda worried for gp. hence explaining my actions haha
btw hci notes compared to ours is way superior in terms of argument and concepts.

went to consult mr ng about how to improve my summary aq and compo...

and i realised that for my gp to move up by just one grade, there is like so much things that need to be done.
coherence.language. reasoning framework. arguments based on in depth concepts and not merely superficial facts and reasoning...

haiz last time taking a sch based gp exam... this prelims i think would be used as the last chance to test certain newly learnt exam skills before the A's.

while going through the common test aq just now, mr ng provoked me into thoughts on what i really wanted out of my future career. at first he asked what uni course i want. so i said prob BA or geog.

however geog is not that likely as it limits me to being a teacher (as mentioned in the prev post...) then i said though i dun mind being a teacher, i would also like to earn enough to support my family and parents to live a comfortable life and being a teacher doesn't seem like one of the means to do so.

then mr ng asked " then what do u consider as a comfortable life for ur family. if u work for say 10h a day and dun spend time with ur family as u are too engrossed in ur promotions and work, does it make ur family happy? or would u do something that u like, earn less, but be there physically and emotionally for ur family." " there is a fine line between being trapped in a hedonistic treadmill or in the endless rat race chasing after wealth and earning enough money to lead a comfortable happy life with ur family."

made me spend the whole bus trip home thinking bout it. and i still dun have the ans yet.
luckily i got 6 mths to think of the ans... (aft A level results come out)
