I repeated my third year in campus.Coz I wasn reading.Coz I had no motivation.
You see,when I was in primary school(since our systems are different,primary school here is the one you attend for 8 years,before high school.Maybe in your country it's 7 years or thereabouts.But you get my point)I wprked hard to make it to a good high school(in Kenya,you fight through every step of formal education.It's not free,limited space,etc,etc,basically f***ed up).And I did.In my end of primary school exams,I scored 594 marks out of a possible 700(100 for every subject).In high school,the motivation was to qualify for campus.The pass marks are made high,coz space is limited,so while the basic requirement is an average of a C+,you find that the actual grade needed is at least a B or something.I got a B+ in high school.My granny thinks that I'd have done better if my mom hadn't passed away at the end of my 3rd high school year.I dunno.Anyway,I made it to campus.
Where the bull began.
First off,things are so vague.Theories.Crap.
And people read to pass exams.
Which doesn't move me,coz reading just to pass exams,without learning,is to me a waste of time and money.
I think I'll say this stuff,and more of it,in another thread when I get the time to start it.
