I hate it when someone does that.

Just because we're not taking the glamorous courses, doesn't mean we're stupid.

I especially hate it when Sir Mahathir said it's okay that our class didn't do well in the previous biology mid-semester exam. He said it's because we're Allied Health Science and Nursing students, so our CPU is slower.

What the F, excuse me, do repeat that again, please thank you?

Way to discourage your students, sir. I find it very insulting. I really do. I could so take Pharmacy or Dentistry if I wanted to, and I'm sure plenty of other students could do that, too. Just because I prefer to become an optometrist over a doctor and take the less glamorous course, it doesn't mean you get to call my CPU slow.

I just bet my ass that there are Medic/Pharmacy/Dentistry students who screwed their mid-semester exam. I bloody hell got 94% for my biology mid-semester exam, okay. And there are those who got 92% and 88% in my class -- do NOT call us slow.

Sir Azrul also said something similar. He was surprised that a nursing student got 100% in my class for the maths mid-semester exam. He said that as if it was some sort of a miracle or something. Well, so what if a nursing student can do maths better than medic students can? Why are you surprised? Glamorous courses =/= smart students. Get that through your heads.

Yang amek medic tu pon blom gerenti ada talent nak jadik doctor. Tengok2 sampai tahun 3, fail, terus bukak kedai makan aje. Harap glamour course je, khaaaakk-ttuii!

I honestly don't understand why so many people want to become doctors. Even in high school, a classmate of mine wanted to become a doctor -- I'm sorry to say this, but his/her biology marks weren't even good. I think it's because it's a glamorous job to have. Like, your kids can go,

"My dad/mum's a doctor~" *proud*

Whatever la wei. Jangan ikut glamour je. Kang kalau tak dapat bawak, diri tu jugak susah.
