today, due to our darlingdearest pw, i had a sudden outburst when vivien told us about this VS boy who passed away after he got knocked by a car. what gets me is how people always seem to think smarter people are more valuable. mr joogal calls those who do well in tests "good students" and treats them nice. when thaddeus passed away, jianwei said, "His parents must be so sad. He had such a bright future in front of him. Plus, he must have been a smart kid!" and when nat said in her blog that she wanted kids next time, she had to add that she wanted "smart kids". and today, viv said,"I heard he was smart you know! Such a waste!" and i couldnt take it anymore ): i had been nursing this thought in my mind for a long, long time now and pw really makes me so strung up... so when stupid people die, it's not a waste la, right? So if your kid is stupid and he/she dies, you won't be as sad as if your smart kid died? so stupid students aren't good students? rarr ): i cant help it that i can sympathise with them. after all, i AM one of their kind, if you would have it that way...
AND i also cannot understand how people can actually think about aborting their babies with down syndrome. i mean, i totally understand the stresses and every other thing like financial problems etc etc, but i really dont think we should play God in this situation. it's ending your child's life, for goodness' sake ): im sorry, im just very pro-life and all but. ya. it's just my opinion la, no offence. and maybe it's easier for me cause i have my faith. and my faith tells me that if God takes me to it, He will take me through it, no matter what comes my way cos God is bigger than anything (: haha i remembered this song i used to sing with my 2 younger siblings when we were still in kindergarten (: pity i cant remember the words well but it goes sth like this: Who is the king of the jungle? who is the king of the sea ? who is the king of the universe? the (something) you and me? and the answer was God la, duh haha. yeah (: oh well.
being in this college has kept me close to God. being in this college has made me stronger in my faith and even defensive of it (: i proudly do the sign of the cross while some may stare weirdly haha. i guess i have taken it for granted, being in catholic schools all my life, that i can sit comfortably through mass and know what's giong on. sometimes, though, i find myself being quite guarded against things that are being taught here. i dont knw why. pride? fear? i dont knw. but what i do know is that we're talking about this same God here. though i personally focus a lot on God the Father and they focus on Jesus. though basically there isnt rly a difference since Theyre God anyways (: but it's just different. alright. tmr will end really really early for me ;D but i need slp now. pw sapped the energy out of me. like oompf. haha yup. ttfn!
