Okay, Mr Poon came into class today and gave the "You girls don't think for yourselves" speech. Well, what I want to say is, so what? It's not like not thinking for ourselves will affect our grades or anything. And, according to what the school has fed us so far, grades are the most important right? Besides moral values and all that, but no one really cares about those. Also, we don't have any cause to think for ourselves.What if one day during lesson the teacher is explaining about osmosis and you go "Wait, what happens when we go into water? Do all our cells explode because they can't become turgid? then if we stay in water too long we'll explode? Why do fingers go pruny if cells explode? Do exploded cells become dead skin? Are there half-alive cells between the dead and live cells? What happens when you tear your dead skin off, do the cells split halfway or do the cells just separate at one point?" and so on. All that will get you is a scolding for distracting others with unnecessary questions, right? So students will be led to believe that thinking for ourselves is a complete waste of time. Also, if we think for ourselves we won't be paying attention to the lesson, so all we end up with is a headful of questions and no idea whatsoever of what is going on. Lastly, if you'll give us a little less homework and a little less lecturing about grades and our so-called future, we'll think for ourselves. |
