law school

the university fair on wednesday was pretty enlightening, mainly because at least 1 member of the acjc alumni studying and working in nus as professors in most of the popular courses came down to share their experiences with us. i discovered a few things that day:

1. its not going to be easy to get into law school
2. neither is it going to be hard if i posses the qualities they are looking for
3. i dont really know if i have the qualities they seem to value
4. if you graduate with third class honours from nus law fac you cant practice law in singapore
5. theres always business school

today when i told en hua that i wanted to go to law school the first thing he told me was that i was going to hell, "all lawyers go to hell" he said. at that moment guanyi was passing by and overheard our conversation, so he said something like "you know you need 3A's to get in right?" as if i couldnt get it. sigh, everyone thinks im not serious about my studies cause im goofing around all the time, but i really am, i just dont want to turn it into a dreadful, boring activity.

i dont think its hard to get 3A's, seeing that i have tuition for every subject now. furthermore, all kinds of random people get 3A's, its not really all that as exclusive and glorious as getting 7A's or something. but still, i realize i have to mug, very very hard.

so today i was walking with my classmates from the NL to the EL because our chem tutor told us that our class was at NL5 when it was actually at EL5. well, i havent been to the NL like this entire year, so i was telling dx, the NL is like some rural village, cut off from society, but then again there lies the allure of living in it. At that moment we saw wayzee using the grass patch next to the NL to go to the EL, so in the context of what i just told dx, it was pretty funny. he was like jungle bashing through from one rural village to the next. and i dont even think dx heard me, because all this while he was like lost in his thoughts or something. ah well, i realize that the entire paragraph doesnt even sound as vaguely funny as i make it out to be, you have to be in that situation to appreciate it.
