a reply to the first step
This certainly does add to drama on our very lively class blog. I feel almost certain the previous post had with it much controversy and ruffled a few feathers. As a good friend I would like to say a few words that, hopefully, would serve to elucidate and moderate some vague or rather, esoteric, points of contention.
First and foremost, I would be the last to say that our class was bereft of academic competition and pressure. And certainly, there is absolutely nothing wrong with doing well simply because you can. And without doubt, our class certainly had its fair share of achievements. Unfortunately, this may have led some pressure on everyone in class to do well simply because they were part of 78.
But I'd like to say, looking back. Indeed, its very much your own life you have to manage. JC life was pretty much like a peaceful bubble compared to what we'll get in the real world I guess: cut-throat competition. It's just something we have to get used to and grow up to face. Comparisons are tempting but its all about perspective.
I quote sam, "but a person's worth is not judged based on his scholarship potentials, grades, but for who he/she really is."
And the reason why I'm thankful to have met you all is not because I'm going to have many capable friends in influential positions so I can bribe my way to power or, for that matter, get free flights on SIA for the rest of my life :) Its simply because you all have indeed coloured my life with many crazy yet touching moments and made it the best 2 year experience I could have gotten.
And as we walk on to the new exciting phase of life, i guess its only natural that with different experiences and all it'll be harder to keep in contact. And even when we do meet up, we'll might feel a little 尷尬 given the differing interests and hardly any common topic that has 親切感 save talking about old times.
But though I guess what makes a friendship fun is that we can relate and talk to one another. What really makes a friendship lasting is knowing that the other guy or gal is trustworthy and is genuinely concerned about me. I believe we've made many friends here who really do 講義氣. I sincerely do wish you all well.
My, this blog really is getting rather mushy. We need some crappy witty entry soon!
