One of the differences between S'pore students and Chinese
students is that S'pore students have more passion in life whilst
most of Chinese students feel desperate about their campus
lives.
One observation in NTU campus is almost every day you can see a
team of students gathering and playing. They laugh, shout and act
together. And I also hear that the majority of activities are held
by themselves.
However, in Mainland China, activities are mainly held by
school, students merely have the rights to have their own
activities. Besides, most of them don't like to participate in
those activities, since they think those activities as boring and
meaningless. One of the reasons that gathers Chinese together is
there is a free meal, so that they sit together to eat and drink
with laughs or silence. In my opinion, they may treat the games
that the students play here as the ones for children, but, in fact,
they have few passions towards their lives.
