Brought my eldest nephew to the library to borrow some books.He's quite a nerd.He's really very bright.
sheryl,
i overheard a grp of sec students in sch uniforms talking abt their peers & BGR at the library today.They seem to be quite mature & knowledgable.
I think they r only mimicking wat they watch on tv.
Subject: Bill Gates Views On Life
Love him or hate him, he sure hits the nail on the head with
this! To anyone with kids of any age, here's some advice.
Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about 11
things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about
how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation
of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them
up for failure in the real world.
Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!
Rule 2: The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world
will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good
about yourself.
Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high
school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you
earn both.
Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a
boss.
Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your
Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they
called it opportunity.
Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't
whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as
they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning
your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought
you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites
of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own
room.
Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers,
but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing
grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the
right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to
ANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers
off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND
YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.
Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people
actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for
one.
