isn’t it ironic that doing something right like being hardworking in studies have to be hidden from the rest of the world??

it’s as if it’s a crime or something, that it can’t be seen done in public, or you’ll get some silent criticism from ppl around…

somehow, the comment "wa….so rajin(hardworking)….." always sound sarcastic everytime it’s uttered by someone….

why tell those kiasu fella that you haven started your revision when in fact you’ve done it all?? why fear them for not preparing enough like you did?? why are u ashamed of being good and right??

why do we give luck all the credit when we know that every bit of our success is contains sweat and tears??

why should we be embarrassed for doing something right??

and why let those ppl who do otherwise brag about how slack they are while we are embarrassed of being the hardworking one??

why is it not "cool" to nag the ppl around you who break the rules, slack in studies, ponteng lecture, smoke, drink when you know it is bad for them….while you have to act "cool" to pretend that everything is fine, as if everything is going where it should be, when it is obviously not….

why do we have to feel sorry for being punctual and let those who are late off scott free without any guilt??

why do we need to keep quiet when we see some injustice happening around us, fearing that we might get affected in one way or the other….

why do we feel bad about being too good, too kind, too "guai" that we have the thought that we should be bad?? somehow, the word "good", "kind", "hardworking" doesn’t go well when put together with the word "cool" eh….and the word "bad", "naughty" etc….seems perfect with it,as if they are of the same group, no??

why does the superhero in every movies have to hide their identity from the public for protecting the city/country, while the villains can come out proud and bold and destroy it like nobody’s business

how can doing something so right seems so wrong??

is how we behave now be influenced by the way we were brought up??

you know what you are doing is right. live it, be proud of it, embrace it….

Finally someone has addressed this issue. молодец!

as a matter of fact, my eyes were first opened to the fact that people “pretend not to have studied” after coming here to russia.

if you ask me, it’s very silly.but then again, you aren’t asking me, are you ;)
keep up the good work. study hard!
