Limit

There is a limit to everything, even when the sky is your limit.

It is a good news indeed that our dear Deputy PM spoke of a 10-subject limit for SPM from next year. I do hope that they will go through with this noble idea. It is about time they do something about it.

I have firmly believed that it is not about the quantity, but the wholesomeness of an individual that SPM should reflect. I am not surprised if those who got 14 or 15 A’s and failed to get a scholarship, is a dork who can’t speak fluently during an interview. I’ve met people like this and trust me, you don’t want them to be your doctor if they managed to book-wormed themselves through medical school.

And may the government stick with their PPMSI policy, for the betterment of our Malaysian society.

1 Hour

The value of 1 hour in my working life.

1 hour of lunch break every day, and it was enough to munch all the lovely foods into that hungry stomach. Plus a walk-in-the-freaking-hot-sun for lunch at Wisma Central, or a musical-chair game at level 2 or level 4, or a hole-in-one-in-the-pocket at any of the fancy restaurants.

1 hour of the fastest travel return from my slum home to the workplace. One trip in the early morning, and one in the evening (or night, depending on luck). Cost effective with the use of monthly pass, but a bit troublesome when that fancy touch as you go gard is used. Using cash is a receipt for insanity.

Today, I learned a new 1 hour value: a 1 hour flight trip from Subang to Kerteh at 6.30 am, and another 1 hour return at 6.20 pm. It is now possible to live in the glory of KL and yet attend some meeting at the other side of the peninsula. And be back for a good night sleep.
