15-Year-Old Hates Singapore
Can someone help him?
And im 15. I hate the way people operate around here. I hate the system. I want to get out of the system. But how?
Lets just say, school here is a waste of time in my honest opinion. I mean, they teach you stuff that you dont need to know, like trigometry, algebra, which dont help at life at all. Chem, physics, do you need those at all? Plus, school takes up like 7 hours at least here. Don’t we teens need time to engage at other sports or activities? Normally after school i’d be drained and too tired to do anything at all! But i do agree that languages are important, perhaps literature(it really lets u think deep, matures kids faster, well at least, to me). The basic maths and sciences all that are needed mostly, as we dont measure buildings or create new chemicals in our free time! Perhaps people could opt for better subjects when they want, like a “upgrade” or a stepping stone to a career path they wish for. School is too much for kiddies and teenies already. Want us to be fit but also want us to study so damn much. Its like asking a beggar for money.
NS, one more god-damn stuff all males gotta go through. And its a must. Wasting 2 years and subsequent weeks years after isnt what i opt for. I rather work my ass off and get proper money. Fitness isnt an issue, anyone can get themselves fit if they want to! Defending Singapore, reasonable, but 2 ****ing years is too much, how long do u need to learn how to kill(Or whatever they do inside). They say they want to bond men in NS, yeah, for **** sake, what happens after NS, they forget each other! I studied in S.S that NS also plays apart for our multi-racial society, bull****, from what i learn, I even find adults being more immature then me.
And foreign workers, aint there too much of them? I mean, i dont mind some, but, i see them everywhere!
Sorry, ive got this wall of text, but i gotta let em all out. I’m closing in depression already, thinking of how to get out of this damn country after poly. Singapore makes me blame my parents for not wearing a condom. What are your views?
EDIT: Ok, sorry for not stating this, but i only welcome sincere discussion, not dissin. I just want to see what are your views. Really.
i used to think this way, but all those subs actually really do help.
you need algebra to show others you are capable of learning. and other stuff too.
that kid gotta expand his world view.
and the foreigner thing…..yeah i do agree
I think most people would have similar thought when we were young, but not to that extreme.
Hi Bro, you are not alone. This is the growing sentiment in Sinagporeans.
This sentiment is easily backed up by the dropping number of child births in Singapore.
I am glad for you that you are still young and that you see beyond your years. Just follow Maslow’s heirachy of needs and follow your heart(you wun go wrong)
i dont know about you kid, but everything i have learn in school the A-maths, E-maths , science and all those other crap. Did really help me in poly. Being in the merchant navy has allowed me to see the world but in my job everyday its about maths that thanks god you wont have to see and science that tells you every god dam shit that you do can kill you. And for the NS, Just see it as a place where you can do every crazy god dam shit for FREEEE… We had paint ball fights, till our balls were red!
Jason and Edwin,
Probably you guys want to tell what you said here to the 15 years old kid in EDMW forum.
Get an education that will enable you to stay abroad, I’ve left singapore after serving my N.S and after working there for afew years to save enough to pay for my own education overseas. I’ve lived in Toronto, N.Y , Germany, Italy, Australia and N.Z. And I’m still living over the wall and living my dream. In Singapore I was consider not smart enough by the government, or a late starter. So I had to get my degree abroad. If you want to get out of there, make something of a professional that the country you intend to go to values.. I hope you can do it.
he is just too young.
quite ironic that he says that adults are more immature than him when it’s so obvious from what he’s saying that he’s really really really immature
Yes, sounds like that.
I agree with him. NS is a waste of time.
NS for Singaporeans, Jobs for foreigners.
Cmon, this country is going to the dogs.
i TOTALLY AGREED with the 15 years old boy there he got a point.
the only way out of this mess is migrate to other better country.
as for me going to soon another maybe 6 month time.
here no hope already that the fact
This person thinks the same way as i do.
I guess you are those children who’s parents are working and have not spent time with you. I pity you actually, Only when you have grown up from being a complain-it-all boy, then you would understand what it means to have an education…
Also, NS is a way to incite a sense of responsibility, a sense of independence, ITS NOT ABOUT ALL THESHIT you said just now
GROW UP FAG…
You guys need to grow up and be responsible and grow some balls
ey i agree with you kid, half of this worlds shit is a waste of time, but instead of complaining the whole time just do it, shit thats what every country is doing, strikes and shit don’t work no more your voice won’t be heard by any1 this is the shity life we have to live in just do what we all do, CONTINUE YOUR SHITY LIFE till you turn 18 or 21 then make a change
