I think I'm experiencing the onset of chinese O level fatigue, where I start to shut down at the thought of all the chinese lessons stretched out in front of me. And the piles of gong1 han2 and bao4 zhang1 bao4 dao4 are starting to appear as key characters in my dreams, god forbid.
And like, hello? What's with the whole suffer now and feel happy later philosophy? Won't we all suffer anyway? And what if we are still suffering later? Huh? Huh?
I guess in Chinese, even the most illogical things can sound logical when you phrase it in a su2 yu3, complete with a ear-candy cadence and a pleasing rhythm. And once you get students to memorise and regurgitate them it becomes Reason.
Sulk. :(
