I went for the SPH scholarship writing test today. Think its ok, though I did get shocked when I saw I had to do summary for a pretty tough passage. The vocabulary was SUPER difficult too. Can u think of a word to replace unsanguinely? like hello....

The essay questions were also quite nostalgic, reminds me of the GP days. They have questions like comment on the arts in singapore lah.. the education system lah.. such stuff lah. haha~ I did the question "What are the major challenges that journalists in Singapore face today?" Difficult? I think quite ok lah=) Luckily I took the module on Mass media and society last semester. I just made some points lah.. but think I didn't elaborate enough. I can't publish my whole essay here.. though they asked me to delete but stupidly enough they dun remember the Edison Chen scandal. I CAN easily retrieve it form my trashbiN!! tsktsk.. pple just don't learn. AHAHHA so I retrieved it so as to show my dad... well this is my first and last paragraph!

The Straits Times is one of the mainstream newspapers in Singapore, boasting of awards and prestige conferred upon it by international recognition. Journalists are the people who help create this success and they are responsible for shaping this lynchpin in society. As the saying goes that the pen is mightier than a sword, it is very apt when expounding on the main challenges faced by journalists today.

Surviving in Singapore’s media landscape is no easy feat and journalists receive the brunt of controversies and criticisms. With the huge responsibilities and challenges they face everyday, journalists can be considered to be the soldiers of the nation, defending the people and leading the ‘little red dot’ to greater heights. It is a difficult role to partake, but immeasurable satisfaction included.
