you see, it doesn't occur to you if you own that something that everyone else has.
cos, it only occurs to you if you don't own something that everyone else has.
someone (he's a foreigner without a handphone) has mentioned in my nm forum, why is it that we need a mobile phone for everything in singapore? this is what he says:
"1. International Student Services (ISS) invited me to join the Conversation Exchange Corner, a program helping students to improve speaking skill. The application form online is indeed very detailed in the way that it required a handphone number.
2. CORS feedback form online does also required a handphone number.
3. When I applied for NUS Debit Card issued by DBS Bank, the bankteller insisted that I must have a handphone to continue."
have we moved on into a new age without my knowledge?
and then we look into the education system and i wonder, what happens to graduates from ITE?
what happens to students who couldn't make it into university?
those who are able to afford overseas tertiary education, that's fine. but what about those who can't? do they have a way out?

sorry i had to delete my comment almost as soon as i posted it. in case you suddenly get strange phonecalls from government officials asking you for my identity hah. big brother is watching, indeed.
what, u think papa will feature u in the next rally?? :)
i would love to read your post but oh well.
tks for bringing the ue thing up for the cors issue too. it makes good sense as to why programme is protected. but i still don't see the light for the general account.
no, i think i'll be visited and led away in a straitjacket to an undisclosed location where i'll have hot pokers stuck up where the sun doesn't shine.
i suppose for the general account they don't want to be giving the year ones that much protection. i think the protection for the programme account had gotten enough comments and complaints. and seeing as we don't really need to do so many modules to be gotten from the programme account, they probably figured we'll hold back our selections till we have enough points in our latter semesters.
