这几天不知怎么搞的,我们仿如置身在童话故事的境界里。四周围包围着我们的除了烟雾(其实,这个词好像不太恰当,好像有人提议烟霾,不过烟雾还是比较多人明白,所以继续使用烟雾),还有一阵阵烧焦的味道。到了今天下午,烟雾的状况简直恶化到了令人厌恶的境界。虽然画面依然很梦幻,差一点点就伸手不见五指,可是扫兴的是我闻到一阵阵烧焦的味道,还越来越浓。
于是我就上网尝试找找相关的新闻,谁知怎么找也找不到。还好,到了一个论坛碰碰运气,结果给我看到了相关的消息。原来是我国的高科技城(赛柏城)发生森林大火。这场森林大火也真的很厉害,烟雾弥漫的情况蔓延到了KL,Subang Jaya,大城堡,Bukit Jalil等等地区。
為了讓各個主角的關係比較立體化,所以這次寫這部小說有刻意在角色的刻畫下苦功。雖然效果還是有進步的空間,但我還是覺得跟之前幾部中篇相比算是有改善各個角色相對蒼白的部分。可惜的是,由於中間低估了女生上司的佔戲,所以造成故事寫到最後這個角色變成了影子般的存在。不過無論如何,這是個有趣的嘗試,或許下一部還是會繼續沿用這個方式。首先故事要介紹的,是男女主角的戲份。
Few days ago, I posted up my response on the e-learning issue as requested by my lecturer. I was quite shocked after found out that not more than 5 people posted their response. Is this a sign showing that even though we are studying computer science, but we still do not appreciate and utilize the internet connection wisely? Or this shows that our e-learning system has some problem because it doesn’t help attracting students to login (in other word, it sucks)?
But then, I am quite impressed that there are people who rely on the internet resources in studying in my course. This is because in my college, we are rely on the lecturer for notes. If a lecturer does not provide notes for photocopying, then he/she will be in trouble when students evaluate him/her during the end of semester. Not many who are really interested finding out more on the subject somewhere else and this is probably why not many logged into the BlackBoard and post their response.
In my response, I pointed out that constant electrical supply is a main factor in order to make e-learning a success. It is quite insulting when we are already used to electricity black-outs even in this so-called “Advanced State”. Besides that, decent broadband coverage is also another important factor because not many residents in Malaysia are able to surf online with the help of broadband. Even one can surf using broadband, if he/she is using Streamyx’s service, then he/she will probably suffer from the constantly service down. Even though there are other ISPs providing broadband connection but they cant provide low cost connection. This is because wired connection that is generally cheaper is already monopolized by Telekom. In order to use other ISPs’ services, we will need to pay more for the hardware because they use wireless technology to deliver broadband connection.
If these problems are left unbothered, then I do not expect E-learning will become a trend in Malaysia.
拟标题的时候突然觉得这几个词如果随便调一下会产生非常戏剧化的效果,比如说“扎扎跳的左眼皮人生”、“左眼皮人生的扎扎跳”、“人生的扎扎跳左眼皮”、“人生的左眼皮扎扎跳”等等。不过和最后选定的一样,都是很不makes sense的几组词汇串起来的废话。左眼皮其实扎扎跳了好几个星期,尤其是在夜深人静(宅男的悲哀就是在这种时候没有人可以抱只能拥着扎扎跳的左眼皮入眠)的时候分外踊跃。
自從我的macbook暴斃後,我就寄用我爸的電腦辦公。本來嘛這也沒什麼,誰叫自己這段日子仙都不仙下咩。前陣子再度入手的toptop,甚至是那部已經快有十歲的老機不要說是拿來寫程序,就算用來跑個Ubuntu也有力不從心之感。特別是那部筆記本,十年前運行Windows XP是可以跑得飛快,十年後裝了個最efficient的gentoo開Google Chrome瀏覽多兩個頁面分分鐘會系統崩潰。
有时候一些人很爱装大气,我承认我也是其中一个,因为这种人很爱翻旧账,然后用我其实不介意这句话来总结。这时候,有个可以跟你说真话的朋友是个很重要的事情,因为这个朋友会告诉你,当你把事情还挂在嘴边,根本就表示你还在意。其实我的情绪管理并没有很好(EQ低),所以心情的起伏可以很大,但是我都尽量让自己不要把愤怒的情绪带到第二天,因为很无谓。这件事情虽然事后再说已经没有了情绪,但是我不能否认疙瘩还在。于是,这里写出来,是希望自己说了这最后一次后,不再到处乱讲(讨厌的事情,每repeat一次,就会往夸张的方面更elaborate多一些)。
