Go read Eunice's latest post before reading this.
because simple as it is, its a reply to her question.
Life is meaningless because people everytime say sth like.
live life the way you want to because its too short to live it another way
and Confucius says
if you son den act like son. you police act police you father act father.
and your parents say
MUST get good marks den can get good job den can earn money $$$$$.
which brings me to my next point.
working hard in school is just for that SHITTY PSLE cert, O level cert, A level cert, Masters, PhD and etc. and for them to print out a nice piece of that, you need to waste 6 years, 4 years, 2-3 years, and i dunno already. so basically you work and work and work until you finally get good results so you get good job.
get good job already? you are now 20+++. Now you must slog as hell because.
bossman say
work hard i give you pay
parents say
get pay must give back money.
if you dont give back money? Confucius come haunt you because.
Confucius say.
FILIAL PIIIEEEEEETIEEEEEEE... FILIAAAAL PIEETIIEEEEEEEEE...*ghost voice*
Earn alot money already right?
So now you retire already, your parents spent your hard earned money and passed away, 20-40% of your money become CPF, MediSave wadever Save.
Den government say must work until 65. So you 65 already? Must be LifeLong Learner.
Go pick up new skills and use up the rest of your money. Go on your last trip abroad and then you si kiao kiao.
So now you die already?
ITS NOT GAME OVER.
Life after death you know?
But now because Youngster don't believe Confucius, they no filial pieetieee. they dont burn thing for you. Now you reborn into the world, REPLAY. *IR qiao lao yao teach the rewind*
My reply ends here. Thank you. I am risking my life writing this at 11 at night on 1st of August so appreciate it Eunice.
