Reminder

5 February 2009

This afternoon Abi will face the final examination for Kanji, both reading and writing. It's about 250 characters with 2-4 combination each, approximately more than 500 words I must recognize. It feels so distressing knowing that I just started it like 3 months ago. On the other hand, I feel proud because compared to other university students, I have run faster. However, there's nothing to proud of the things that I don't really grab.

Some of my friends undergo this exam just to kill the time, others don't even bother so that they do nothing but cheating. I usually say, "I don't want to cheat, but someone (as I pointed at the ones) forces me to allow them cheating on me." Only those who are really serious will get both the good grade and the knowledge.

Remember this, my children, seek knowledge all over the world, as far as your dream can take you. While keeping honesty and sincerity.
