World never will be as fair as you think

Recently SPM result is just out and I get only 6 A’s. Sometimes I just don’t understand why other people can get so many A’s while I get only 6? In normal examinations, I normally get much better results than them but in the government examination, they will suddenly get more A’s than what I have expected. To make this clear, I am not unhappy with my result but envy about other people’s result. No offence but most of the people that get A in their SPM normally don’t get it in their normal examination or even the trial examination.

Why they are so lucky and can get such good result in the main examination while I can not? This is really unfair. I have a better brain, I am smarter than them, but why they have a result which is much better than mine? This is not fair! I am always better in science and math but my language is not very good. Therefore, I always overtake them in sciences subjects. My average is normally more than theirs, but I still can not get a good result but they can. Not just that, all my friends who are now studying in college that score good in SPM are now facing problems with science and math subjects but I am not. So is this strange??

After all these, I have been thinking, is this means that science grade for getting an A in SPM is as low as 60 while the standard of language is as high as 80? This is not fair because everyone is master at a particular subject we can’t compete with each other. Since the SPM is graded by ABC, then credits are not given to those who score very high in science. This does not reflect the intelligent of the students but trying to cover their eyes from the truth.

If this continues, those who are good in science eventually will not get a good scholarship and all the new generation of scientists will extinct. This will cause the specialist in Malaysia to decrease. Malaysia will not progress in this way. My suggestion is that the government examination must be graded by average and not by ABC. I guess this will be better since it is the fairest of all. ABC is just unrealistic and unfair. Ultimately, I am not upset because of my result but the education system of Malaysia.

"Friend"

“Friends”, what is it represents to you? Sometimes, it is hard for me not to wonder. Is our friendship are as shallow as that? Is only 2 months of time will make us apart? Is work more important than friend? Is the time we have left to spend time with some old friends are unlimited? Is there always be tomorrow for all of us? Works are always there waiting for you to do (until you are dead) but friends are not. The times we have left to be together with a particular person are limited and we could not know when is the time we are going to meet again. God always gives us a chance but it is us who make the choices. A wrong choice would probably bring regret to the rest of our life. You might feel that our lives are still long and we have a lot of opportunity but we can not look through the future.
Humans are always rushing for something which is meaningless. The society now days always wanted to be fast, sleep we must be fast, taking a bath should be fast, eat must also be fast, and walk must be fast also. But do you all ever stop and sit quietly in a city and look at the surrounding on how much others have missed? Do you feel earning some money at this age are very meaning full to you all? Especially now you all are only earning about RM1500 per month (max), which is not a big value, and there is nothing much you can do using that money. A few hand phone maybe, or even a laptop, but is that important?
It is just only about 3 or 2 months but, I have not heard any regard from any of my friend since then. They seems like they had forgotten about everything in the pass, all the things we had been through, all the fun we had, and all the problems we have solved together. Even if I start a conversation with them, the conversation will also be very short. The only answer they will give is just yes or no. More over if you are expecting them to ask you any questions, you could just forget it. They just will not even spend some time for any of our gathering. So what is the point of make that gathering if no one is coming?
I know that it is hard to put our responsibility down but I guess that is something we must sacrifice for friendship. It is so because in every gathering, every one of you is very important. If there is anyone of you who did not turn out, the whole gathering would loss its meaning. Every one of you will make a different, trust me!
Hope that they will understand what I am trying to say.
