Some thoughts

Actually to me, I don't really like Singapore's primary school education system. It's like you can just score by memorizing and memorizing. Just after the exams you can forget all that you've learn. For schools that force pupils to memorize compositions, I think that it's even more pointless. Writing, to me, is a kind of enjoyment, not a chore. But if someone made me memorize compositions when I was young, I'll think that writing compositions is a chore. I don't have my own style, I'm just rewriting something that someone else has written. You might say that you get high marks and things like that, but is going to school just about scoring in exams? Is writing just about scoring in exams? I don't enjoy writing Chinese compositions, particularly because it has little room for imagination. It is a chore to me. Totally meaning less since I can't really express myself in those compositions. In my school, writing Chinese compositions is just memorizing good phrases, not actually enjoying it. What, I always ask myself, is the point in doing that?
