firstly, for some few year older seniors, you might not know what PSK really means. it’s a “NEW” subject which was taken out from our syllables like.. 20 years ago? because of its stupidity and uselessity (I made up that word ><). and NOW, it is BACK in our syllables for students born in year 92 onwards. PSK, Pendidikan Sivik dan Kewargaan MIGHT be one of the subjects in our SPM. WE students are studying without relaxing much for the WHOLE BLOODY YEAR. and YET, they still wanted to include this useless subject. it is a subject that “teaches” us of what responsibilities we carry and what we should do in life. isn’t moral enough for these questions? even agama teaches these. it is just a FREAKING STUPID SUBJECT! all the answers can be easily answered using our common sense but they only wanted the “keywords” which if your answer is rasional but without these keywords you won’t score any marks for it. I’m not sure it’s because of my schools marking skim or what, but nobody got good results for this in my class. firstly, I would like everybody to ask themselves, WHY GO TO SCHOOL? it’s because we want to LEARN right? and I don’t think forcing us to memorize these useless “keywords” which we know using our common sense is useful. like for example, the question asks how are the parents supposed to react when they have another new child other than you. logic answers tells us that the parent should treat both children equally and fair. so yes, we all wrote that. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT IS THE ANSWER? it’s just so freaking stupid. they said that, the parents should earn more money. I wrote, the parents should try to work harder to earn more money, AND I GOT A BIG CROSS TOO! for gods sake, if they wanted us to answer like their answer and there is NOTHING at all regarding to questions like these in the textbook they should have made it objective. NOT subjective. FYI, the textbooks have tonnes of questions and a short 1 to 2 page articles about something that doesn’t show the “keywords” at all. and still they want to include this useless subject in our syllables? are they crazy??

like in other countries, they can choose what to study and doesn’t need to cramp every single thing that benefits or not into their busy brains. in our country, they think that young adults like us are robots and expects us to study every single day for at least 3 hours (minimum for somebody to actually get an A). YET, the teachers that they give to TEACH us are teachers that teaches us so badly that we couldn’t answer anything without tuition, or studying at home the whole day. failing is quite common in our batch. and the ones that fail are so called “FAILURES” by the honourable teacher that used to study stuff so easy back then. everybody knows right? that subjects are getting more and more difficult down the generation. we are all studying like our heads will explode in any second, like it hurts so much that we want to just break everything we can see. what are the governments doing? what is the ministry of education for? aren’t they supposed to give us what we can handle but not trying to fill 10litres of water in a normal cup? education is for KNOWLEDGE, not just to force us to memorize useless stuffs that everyone knows we’re going to forget. especially for history, knowing a bit is okay, but whats with the years memorizing or what are their age is when they get married or what they plant in each state or what are the artifacts called and where it is found, WE DON’T NEED THAT, and we won’t remember that. defination of why we should learn history : we learn it so that we won’t repeat their wrongs. WRONGS? YOU asking us to memorize at what age they got married and what year they are born WRONGS? HECK! do YOU think that we can memorize everything? teachers might be able to do it but not us, and not everybody wants to become an archaeologist. the headmistress and government expects us all to score straight A’s, and companies or colleges only gives students with many A’s scholarship, instead of the poor. try learning how to swim, dance, tennis, hokey, basketball, baseball, football, volleyball, badminton, arts, piano, guitar and violin and be good at EVERY SINGLE ONE OF IT. we are really just ordinary humans, living happily is our main point. shouldn’t we just focus on what we want to be in future and master that particular things?

and I really can’t stand how racist some teachers or headmasters/headmistress’ are. always praising the race that they like, treating them better, giving them tips on exams, and hinting (sometimes even saying it directly out loud which is damn evil) how bad other races is. and especially ones that care for themselves and the image of the school but not the students. I don’t get why using coloured hairbands (although I don’t) affects them or keeping long nails bother them and even some students whom dye their hair into dark brown make them so angry or having fringe that are not poking our eyes POKE theirs. sigh. all for the image, all these school rules are stupid, and not obeying it will get you expelled. EVEN wearing our chinese religious jade Buddha or Kuan Yin inside our clothes just showing a tiny little bit of the plain necklace on our necks make us get demerit points! (getting more points means getting closer to being expelled). if a Malay guy who wants turban, they can, but why not us?! it’s just PURE RACISM!

and if you’re a teacher, teaching some quite not bad classes and still they can’t score, you might need to reconsider on whose fault is it. don’t always blame the students for not listening, because you might need to blame yourself for speaking too soft, know that they’re not listening and yet still leave it (which makes the class noisy and difficult for other students to concentrate), not teaching them how to score and what we need to use to score. especially if you’re not really interested in teaching, please don’t ruin our future leaders.

PS to the unreasonable people : don’t always think that kids/young adults are wrong. want to try being in our shoes? bet you don’t.

okay, I’m finished flaming. toodles.
