good. outstanding.

The conductor of FYSB(Fei Young Symphonic Band) asked us, "Who do you want to be? A good student or an outstanding student?" I pondered for a few seconds -- Ideally we want to be an outstanding student, it sounds better than just a good student, but I don't know why.

Q:
"Do you know what is the difference?"
A:
"A good student get 10 A's, very good, because he/she spent 10 hours on studies"
"An outstanding student get 10 A's, very good, but he/she spent 5 hours on studies, spending another 5 hours for creating some valuable history/activities."

Interesting? That is why we should talk to people, share with people about things that we can never learned from school or text book.
