Beep.

Just found out my friend was my enemy today. The world's a small place, and a school's a minature one. I'm stuck with this guy for another 2 years. Let's see who dies first. hehe

Anyway, I was thinking about competitition mugging. I am in Geog RA (yes, I'm not stupid) and I joined this competition and the first round is a pen and paper round. Obviously, you mug and mug and mug for it. Is that rote learning? My friend is mugging for a test and he's cramming for it. Isn't that rote learning? Teachers teach us concepts, true, but when the test comes, we still have to have the basic knowledge, not just concepts. Students are busy people (or lazy like me :P) and in the end, we memorise the knowledge in order to do well for the test.


Ah well, that's my 2 cents worth.

Till later
