So the ironic thing here, is that I remember her being the one firm and robust about her choice never to enter a university, and take the lead in the working industry with a business diploma.

You see, the thing here really isn't about which school she enrols herself into. It's about us humans, how predictable we really are, and how much of trend-followers we are.

How many times have you felt frustrated about school? How many times do you remember yourself saying you wish you didn't have to study anymore? How many times do you remember yourself wishing you could just stop doing anything and everything all at one time? How many times?

But have you?

Guess not. At least, not if you belong to the standard-routiners.

We grew up in the standard routine, proceeding on from one level of education to another, and it seemed like a safe and easy way out.

Apparently, what happened to my friend, was that her determination and ego lost to social norms. And her claim that a diploma will take her faster and a higher position compared to fellow friends studying for a degree, fell weak.

So is it true that all of us are just slaves of the long educational chain, and do not have guts to break free from conventions?

I was on board the bus with Bish today and I was eavesdropping on this group of students' conversations.

GuyA asked Girl : do you think you're hot, or is your friend hotter?

GuyB answered before Girl could even say anything : this question is useless. it's like comparing one football.. with another football. Completely useless!

hahahaha. zomg they're the bomb man. LOL.

Yeap anyway, today, we're finally liberated from Paula v Car Covers Pty Ltd and Sue v Julie. Therefore... Bish and I decided to take ourselves down town for a short while before catching up on our sleep. hahaha. She got her dad's present (omg 65$!!), and I got my *ahem* BAG! LOL. yeyyyy. =)
