Entry: it's pretty late. whatever. had such bad fried chicken, i'll never eat it again. my stomach agrees. Thursday, April 12, 2007



pft. i hate it how when government school kids try to write essays on some supposed-important issue online, ie thecicak. yeah, i'm being elitist. but i can't help it. they spend so much time worrying about the structure, the grammar, the wording, the blah, the blah that it just ends up being pointless. what about the damn content? what about just focusing on your main point(s) and building your argument around that? "thesis you say? wtf does that mean?" psh. i just read this kid's essay on spm results and how it doesn't really mean anything. or something like that. i reall have no idea what his main point was. of course i didn't tell him that - other people did already. it would be impolite and redundant to say it again. (but i did leave a comment because he wrote a quote which was valuable to note, but rather obvious nonetheless.)

but hey. i was guilty of writing stupid things too. still am when i'm rushing exams and writing 'blog'posts. but you know, if you're going to spend so much time on your grammar, structure, wording etc. etc. - you might as well spend that time on actually shaping a proper thesis. that way i won't have to dig through your bullshit and try to get what you're trying to say.

i have an idea for a little novella. it's sad that this novella will never come to life because it's such an awesome idea.

Hahhaha, some government kids spend too much time worrying about their grammer that in the end, their whole essay doesn't make sense and it is a mixture of malay/chinese and try-too-hard superior English words.
