These days, mukhang mas importante pa ang mataas na grade instead of actual learning.
Hindi ko talaga gets iyang sistema na 'yan. Punyemas na bagong curriculum, dagdag requirements dito, dagdag gastos doon. Hello, hindi lahat ng tao sa mundo ay mayaman (para makabili ng sandamakmak na requirements) at may oras (liwanagin lang po namin: MAY SARI-SARILI KAMING BUHAY... hindi naman siguro dapat lahat ng oras mo ay nauubos sa studies).
Nauuwi na lang 'yung mga estudyante sa pandaraya. All in the name of pride and good grades.
Meron akong nabasang quote na "Genius is 1% talent and 99% hardwork". Totoo ba? Hindi ko alam. Pero ang alam ko ay dapat magsipag kayo dahil wala kayong mapapala kung magpapakabatugan lang kayo at maglalasing dun sa harap ng sari-sari store ni Aling Bebang. Unless mayaman kayo. If that's the case, bahala kayo sa buhay niyo.
