Studies

I have a few not-so-random thoughts, as in, there're certain thoughts I have, which I have thought of since I was a child, & I can't help thinking about it occasionally, probably because these thoughts are related to life.

& because I just had an exam, I couldn't help thinking about it. I was grumbling, whining & complaining (in my mind & out loud) about exams as usual, & for the 10638th time I was thinking that I hate exams, & why can't there be such a thing as no exams in the world (such were my thoughts as a kid, I wished a lot of things didn't exist. Another thing I wish didn't exist was Monday lol).

Well, I knew why there was the existence of exams in this world since young. Do you? It's pretty simple (especially if you have enough time to think about it rather than study for the exam). But this is just assuming majority people are like me, even though I know that it may not be true.

If exams didn't exist, would you bother to study? I wouldn't, that's how lazy I am. Ok, maybe when I just started school, I didn't think about such things. I loved to learn new things, & I didn't think of exams as exams because I was very blur at the time, & I just answered questions to the best of my ability.

But when I started thinking more, about life & everything else, I couldn't help wondering, what was the point of all this? & it started getting all meaningless, & entertainment & games seemed more interesting.

Still, I'd defend myself by saying that I'd study hard even if there weren't such a thing as exams (an outright lie). But I did try last time, & even now I still believe (occasionally) that it is possible to excel in what you do even without having to go through exams. & yes, I know that exams are to test how good you are in something, & there shouldn't be a problem if you are good in it anyway. My dad says he loves exams *rolls eyes* & he said the reason why, but I'm not sure whether I should expose it lol

Anyway, wouldn't it be really nice if everyone were so good (morally & ethically) that they'd all study & work as hard as possible, so much that the need for exams will be extinguished one day? That'd be in my utopia one day ;-D
