Studies part or soul of students' life?
"Studies used to be our body, soul and life when we are young; it used to be the only thing in our life. However, now studies is only part of the students' life."
Do you have any thoughts after reading the above statement?
This statement came from a colleague of mine when we are having a chat. Personally, I agree with this statement to a certain extend. Thinking aloud, you might already begin to wonder why do I only agree to a certain extend. The main factor that attribute to that will be the fact that some students do have to worry about putting bread and butter on the table though they are not the majority. To this group of students, can we blame them that studies is not their body, soul and life?
To those whom do not have to do that (putting food on the table), studies still might not be their highest priority and biggest concern. Having fun and freedom could be their main agent for them to move their body and mind. Studying can almost never be associated with an element of fun and freedom. Shopping, catching a movie, playing computer games, or just hanging out with their friends could also be fun.
To me, yes! Studying can be boring but I am quite sure that there are ways to make it interesting. Although I really do not know how at this moment, I am almost 100% sure that it can be. So to this, I just have to keep searching and seeking for one or two or even more.
