Someone say, "do you prefer to be seen as a class with 2% pass or 98% fail". I was quite disturbed by this. Not by the results (because nearly 75% of the cohort fail if not for moderation, even so, i think 50% of them failed, including myself), but by what the person want us to think.

Then again, i saw a quote by another person, "Why do some people always insist on looking at their results as 1/4 empty rather than 3/4 full?".

Ok, this time i really got to write something, if not i cant sleep.

First of all, is there a real difference. Yes, there is a COMPARATIVE difference, but not a ABSOLUTE difference. So what? Is not like we are trying to trade the failures or what right? So why go on and live in self denial?

Try saying to your parents, "hey mum i've got a 30% pass in my test. isnt that fantastic? i pass ok?" and your mum will go like, "what the..." with her blood boiling or something. And you roll your eyes and talk in extreme frustration,"listen up bitch, its like a perception kind of thing here. this is the way we should think in the new era. not for old people. get it...doubt so...". Next moment you might be in paris or maybe pasir ris. Whatever the case, perception is not important here. The important thing is know where you stand and work from it.

Living in self denial sure helps right? NO IT DOESNT! wake up idiots (relax, its not you, or is it?), its like Newton saying i ALMOST found out why the apple drop on my head. -.-. ALMOST? What do you mean by almost, P.S. it means you havent!

But perception does help one sometimes. Maybe you are very ugly BUT your perception is like i am just not beautiful. Maybe it will boost your confidence. Helps right?

Conclusion, dont live in self denial unless it helps.

Secondly, what people want to see things as, is really none of my business. Seriously. But when you try to enforce your own individual perceptive on others, thats WRONG! P.S. try spreading Nazism in germany and racial tension in singapore. Ok, i know these are the extremes, but seriously, why do you want people to think your way. Does it lead to the betterment of the human race? Obviously not. Can you grow one more piece of meat and sell it for money. No you cant.

SO... looking results as 1/4 empty rather than 3/4 full? Is that a question? or is that a disguised order for a change. I seriously cant tell, can i? Anyway if that person really had that results, there's really not point arguing with such a freak, because that person results already 'A' liao, look somemore can get 'A*"? NO! But thats beside the point. What you want others to see may not be what they want to see, LEAVE THEM ALONE.

Conclusion, leave people alone unless they are a threat to your safety or could potentially lead to the destruction of civilisation .

OPEN YOUR EYES BIG BIG AND LOOK. P.S. i did not call for a debate and this post is not plan to target any individual.
