last wk, i went to popular to kill time cos i was waiting for my fotos to finish developing..
so obviously, after all the pen and paper browsing, i went over to the "A"lvls section..guess what i saw?

actually, it was more of something i didn't see that's making me mad..
there was a whole bookshelf of Alvl stuff and there wasn't a single book on History, Geography, or literature..
it was filled with bio,chem,physics,econs,gp..blah blah blah..
see the pattern?
The whole bookshelf is practically customized to suit the needs of the science stream!
What are educators trying to imply?
1. The arts minority is so insignificant they are negligible
2. They disregard Arts subject as a subject

yaya..some pple are going to argue that the arts subject are pretty much non-reliant on the TYS and assessment books..
but hey, it's called the TYS whereby past year exam papers are being published for the students to practice..
so doesnt that mean that by not printing a TYS for history, you are treating the History Alvl paper as non-existant?

Also, why isn't the arts subjects like econs,Hist,Geog or Lit a prerequisite to any university courses?
i mean, even the course economics does not specify an Alvl pass in econs to qualify for it..! all you need is maths, and who doesn't take maths?!
and i don't see subjects like Hist or geog being a prerequisite anyway..
which means that any science student with no prior econs knowledge could end up in courses like econs cos they took maths,while the rest of us slog our life away to take econs and to actually do well in it, and get ousted by such people!
it's infuriating!

Since the Science stream could cross over to the Art faculties in uni, why cant Arts students do the same?
and if the subjects we are taking aren't even a prerequisite to anything, why include it in the Alvls?
The education system might as well just make JC a monostream- the Science stream..

And what angers me the most is the perception that the Arts students have lousy grades, which pretty much explains why they're in arts..
Alot of people think that the arts subj are so easy to do well in, the arts students do not need to put in much effort, unlike the science students who always seem so hardworking..blah blah..
The MOE is taking away the EM1-EM3 divide in primary school, but neglecting the one in JC..these people with these warped misconceptions about the arts students are making it seem that we're the EM3 and the science students are from the EM1..
don't believe me?
just go tell anyone on the streets you're fr the Arts stream and look at their faces..then u'll know what im talking about..

i shall not go into the details cos im sure i'll nt fail to make it seem too politically incorrect, and i do not want anyone to think that im directing this to anyone in particular..esp since most of my close friends are fr the science..

im having sudden outbursts these days..
i dunno why..
i just feel angry at alot of issues..
just take the Minister's visit to PJ for example..(shall not go there..jaish knows what im talking about..)
urgh..watever..anyway most people alrd know i do not like the SC in general..
and i shall not go there too..
wait till im outta pj..i'll vent everything once and for all..!!!!!
see wat i mean? im having an outburst again..
if i lose my temper to anyone these days,pls tell me and i'll try to curb it..
and i apologize in advance..
must go see doctor alrd..might be hormonal imbalance..wahahaha..
early menopause...
