Hey guys its Monday!!! Yes and tomorrow is APPG test 1 so fast !!!! OMG!!! Haha So this morning we had APPG test revision where Mr.Chua went through with us on one of the past year exam papers. The exam paper that we went through wasn't that difficult but very tricky which tells me that even though you are confident you will still make mistakes so it is better to check your answers atleast once. We were released for lunch at 11.30am and was to be back at 1.30pm for our IS lesson which the topic is about Chinese philosophies.
The afternoon IS class started by the teacher introducing about a very famous Chinese philosopher called Confucius aka 孔子。 He will be the main topic which we will be discussing about today.One of the few philosophies we learnt was do not compare you life with others because most people only compare the bad things in their life with the good things of other peoples life and not the good things in their life.This actually is trying to teach us that in life there’s good and bad things in life.
Confucius also said that all man are born with selfish nature and if the world doesn't have selfishness the world would be a better world also he once said when a man if full of his own opinion he wont be able to take in more other peoples opinion its like a tea cup that is full and no one will be able to pour new tea in.
Reflection
Today I realized that Chinese philosophy is not a boring subject as the meanings is actually derived from stories , after this lesson I also realized why Confucius is such a famous person and it is because he takes things that happened in everyday life and used them to tell people educate people on how to change themselves to improve on themsleves
