Do not be discouraged by the obstacles that are standing in your way. Different countries have different education systems. Singapore's education system, is so much tougher than in Aus, they push you so hard, you don't even get a chance to breathe for a moment. But that pushing, in someway actually helps you to be more focused on your schoolwork. In Aus, uni is more about independant learning. Not many rules. My eyes and brain lit up, when the lecturer says it's not compulsory to attend lectures and tutes. Is that a good thing, I don't think so. It's just the start of the year and i'm already looking for excuses to be lazy.

Either by hecs or bank loan..at the end of the day, Uni fees have to be repaid. Singapore can't afford a hecs system because it is a small dotty country, small population = small amount of tax payer's cash unlike Australia. It is a huge country, big population = loads of tax payer money and the government is rich enough to offer a hecs system to students.

There are always pros and cons of studying in different countries. You'll be unhappy when comparing the system in singapore to the one your heart desires for because more then often, it never gets fulfilled.But when you try to look through the eyes of a child in Africa who is thirsting for knowledge but havent got the resources to learn or a child in China who wants to go to school, but no school is available, you'll realised that you've gotten everything they long for. Being able to get your basic education from kindergarden, then to primary, on to secondary, then to poly, finished poly. Don't you think that, even though you might not be able to do the course you want now or able to afford uni fees in sg..for now, you are still a lucky person?

Even though,..fees might be too expensive now or you can't get into the course for now..your education resources are always there.

So cHeeR up gurLs...dON'T frown..look at the wrinkles..showing..Lol

P.S I'm not having so much fun in Uni..Over here, it feels like, "You do, you'll pass,You don't, you fail, no one gives a damn! No idea what my assignment is talking about and itz due on Mon 19march......There's so much freedom over here, too much freedom to be lazy to get lazy..And then the next thing u noe,,ur slacking behind and soon you're just another Uni drop out.

i dunnnnnn wan to be a drop out.
