take the essence and joy out of learning

my rant was against it being part of the must have examination subjects to move on to the next stage.Originally posted by ShrodingersCat:err mebbe ur history teacher failed to do that, but that is definitely an essential part of learning history.
However, learning history doesn't need to be limited to classroom or curriculum, or what the teacher teaches.
at the very least, armed with the basic knowledge of who did what when and how, its really up to the individual to conjecture on why and what else could have been done. It will still be useful to the person even if this is not examinable, and not part of the curriculum.
I have nothing against learning history/humanities and i think it might even be a good idea to know how pple react and thus how to handle them. -
arh yes.....i now understand why the credit company is hounding me.....
From their website......their role model says:
"Here's why he recommends the strategy:
It's unique. 'If you make your company stand out as the one that won't go away, a lot of deadbeats will pay their bills to get you off their backs.' "
I am deadbeat.
And I like what bankruptcy has to offer. I rather be a bankrupt. -
for all you know hell might be better; maybe all the good sentiments and positive impressions of heaven are due to a massive and successful marketing and advertising campaignOriginally posted by Fatum:you want to go to hell ? ..

the sad reality is that most people would not bother to learn about any humans subject, unless they are forced to.Originally posted by hisoka:my rant was against it being part of the must have examination subjects to move on to the next stage.

So there, bobian loh. be comforted that being forced to take humans probably made you slightly more knowledgeable about fellow beings that if you didn't need to at all. -
Sorry boss was talking to me and I missed 2 pages
Anyway Hisk, the whole point about work is to earn money
That is granted
I mean why the hell are we at work now if not because of $$?
You said you wish you are rich so that you can do something interesting and learn something new, but that can also be achieved by doing a job.
Any kind of job gives you money
Heck, be a dishwasher and you get money too
You need to start somewhere.
If you think the pay is alright and you can learn something, by all means try out the job in the field be it marketing, sales or engineering but don't go into something that require a certain resolve and passion like teaching or nursing for example.
Maybe you should start off on what are you interested in?? That way it is easier to narrow down on the industry
Like me, I like food
and I choice the F&B industry because I feel that this is an industry that will not go bust no matter how the economy is like. People will still need to buy food. Sure the pay is not as high as other industries but if I think it's interesting enough for me, why not? And yes I learnt alot of things especially to things that I will normally not pay attention too la biodiesel for example and other horrific things like clearing the Amazon to plant soybeans

just something completely Out of Topic cos I've been so grossed out and can't get it off my mind:
last night i made idiot proof roast duck porridge - which means i dumped leftover roast duck into rice and water and boil them all together.
I also added some braised peanuts.
so was eating it and watching tv at the same time when I chewed on this peanut thing and was grossed out by its taste. It was that horrible 'smelly' taste of duck when not cleaned properly so I spat it out. Strangely, it looked like a peanut.
I ran to the kitchen gargled my mouth and glugged down orange juice and came back to continue eating my dinner.
then I realised I had the big fat ass of the duck sitting in my bowl.. and when I poked the ass... another little peanut slipped out....
-gag- that's when i realised I may have eaten one of the bloody duck's balls!!!! ughhhhhhbleah bleah... -
you mean you hope its the balls and not some coagulated waste product?Originally posted by ShrodingersCat:just something completely Out of Topic cos I've been so grossed out and can't get it off my mind:
