For the last time, if you didn’t manage to go overseas and got “stuck” here and have to go to a local university, you’re really not going to die or lose out. Suck it up. It’s not the end of the world nor are the people in NUS stupid. Yes, some are, but not all. But if you come in determined to mope, you’ll never get anywhere then I’ll just say, “Serves you right”.

It all turns out for good anyway. I just hate it when people go on about how it’s better overseas: less stressful, smarter people, less spoonfed. You choose what you want to make of it.

I have brilliant profs and have found myself stretched. Yes, it’s stressful, but if you can’t deal with it now, when will you ever be able to? I’ve found good friends but you’ve got to look (as you would in any university).

So yes, so if you would stop looking down upon us who are staying in Singapore, it would be great.

This fellow's wise enough to play the fool,
And to do that well craves a kind of wit.
He must observe their mood on whom he jests,
The quality of persons, and the time,
And, like the haggard, check at every feather
That comes before his eyes. This is a practice
As full of labour as a wise man's art.
For folly that he wisely shows is fit;
But wise men, folly-fall'n, quite taint their wit.
