A JPA scholar should be able to handle her personal life or college life without involving her parent, to show her capability to handle problem evolve around her. What is the point for JPA to provide Scholarship to someone who do not even know how to handle friend's comments. Merely good in academic is not good enough.<BR/><BR/>No doubt, character and attitude is important, if CK has attitude problem [to criticise on her blog], in other words, YK also has her attitude/character problem [do not know how to handle her personal life-too dependence and immature].Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-79864723992122233252008-04-07T22:57:00.000+08:002008-04-07T22:57:00.000+08:00i think we all wanna know who is this CK.i think we all wanna know who is this CK.zewthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05825991430180369393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-25574130216233283292008-04-06T20:36:00.000+08:002008-04-06T20:36:00.000+08:00to all high achievers out there:it doesn't matter ...to all high achievers out there:<BR/><BR/>it doesn't matter how many A's u can get in your exams, what really matters is your CHARACTER & ATTITUDE!!! <BR/><BR/>i believe 4 some reason CK might have done something wrong AGAIN which led 2 her scholarship termination after her incident with YKAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-17553095356959113272008-04-05T23:25:00.000+08:002008-04-05T23:25:00.000+08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-57408326845376584762008-04-03T19:25:00.000+08:002008-04-03T19:25:00.000+08:00dear all,this is not the first time, and shall not...dear all,<BR/><BR/>this is not the first time, and shall not be the last time.<BR/><BR/>*someone whom scholarship was terminated for blogging*WYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16149881615500824835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-56186884405766179102008-04-03T13:05:00.000+08:002008-04-03T13:05:00.000+08:00i totally believe she brought all the troubles to ...i totally believe she brought all the troubles to herself and her attitude is really a disgrace for all JPA scholars.<BR/><BR/>As a JPA scholar myself, I must say a responsible and sensible scholar must display at least certain level of maturity.
