e-learning?
Recently our English for Science unit’s lecturer posted an issue about e-learning at the college’s “e-learning” system (which is actually a blackBoard Learning System that is also used by many other colleges) and we are required to write a response to that issue. She also provided a link to a page that clearly explains about “e-learning”. Until now, I have really no idea on this issue since I am still reading that webpage while I am posting this.
If only looking at my college’s so called “e-learning” system, I really don’t like it much because it is not as useful as I expected. Blackboard Learning System is no doubt a good system handling “e-learning” things but it is not being well used at my college. I myself prefer looking for information at another websites rather than the e-learning system because there are almost nothing provided by our lecturer through the system except for some lecture notes / tutorial questions / assignment questions etc. I have a friend studying at another college and I heard from him that he can get a lot more things through their college BlackBoard System besides notes / assignments etc. And the participation of his lecturer is much better compared to my college. I found that sometimes it is very rare to see any lecturer to join in our discussion in the discussion board and probably this is why Blackboard System is not popular in my college.
But these are only some problems that only occur in my college, and this doesn’t mean that they will happen in other colleges as well. Therefore these cannot be the only points in my response to the issue, *sigh*. Now I would need to start thinking what to write and post them this Friday since I do not have much spare time because the units I took in this semester are quite tough (at least 4 credit hours) and I am definitely don’t wish the same thing happened as the “Introductory to Discrete Mathematics” unit last semester.

迟了两个月才围城
因为一开始并没有很期待这部电影，所以并没有太留意，所以对这部电影的拍摄动机，背景什么的统统一概不知。不过我知道的是今年的双十其实是辛亥革命的一百周年，至于辛亥革命到底为的是什么，出了推翻满清皇朝之外，基本上我也所知不多。其实家里并不是没有中国近代史的东西，可是感觉上我家里的近代史关于辛亥革命、或更早一些的什么公车上书、什么变法的篇幅好像并不多，倒是国共内战的篇幅好像比较多的样子。或许就是这样吧，就催生了这部《十月围城》的诞生。

n日不blog，面目可憎
感觉上上面那段文字很适合形容我自己，屈指一数，距离我上次最后一个post到今天，也已经是好一段时间了。大家过得可好？相比也不会很差，至少大家blog的frequency还保持着一贯的频率。我的工作依然让我感到很麻木，很无趣，很大压力，很无聊，很这个，恨那个，总之不会是很大的惊喜。办公室工作都是如此的吗？或许孤身一个人的工作不适合我？我不得而知，但是我可以肯定我对办公室工作产生了相当的恐惧感。看来我也是时候去思考毕业后的我到底要做什么了。

贰零零八部落年之我见
这是我第二次打这一篇文章，第一篇文章随着browser crash然后wordpress没有帮我save到的关系完蛋了。好了，我要重新写这篇东西。基本上在凌晨时分他们在电台讨论的同时，我们几个比较相熟的bloggers也在大气电波外的网络同步谈论着，而引起最大回响的，要算是康仔说的08部落年。部落这个词事实上不是我会用的词，不过为了配合大馬部落的征文活动，我在这里可能会不自觉用上这个词儿来代替我一向惯用的网志。

生命的价值？
有时候，翻开报章看到那么多自杀的新闻真的让人很感慨、惋惜一个生命就这样陨落了。当然间中会有很大的一部分人士会抱持着一个看法——“啊，真傻，怎么不看开点”。曾几何时，我也是其中一员。没错，从我们第三者的角度，很多自杀者的情形在我们看来是那么的不值一提，但是不要忘记，我们不是当事人，我们根本没有资格去评论他们的决定。有时候，我真的觉得我们是不是被“近局者迷，旁观者清”这句话影响太深了。当然，我不是否定这句名言，我也没资格去否定，只是我们漏了一点，他们的心理健康是不是真的可以承受所受到的打击呢？而且最重要的是，我发觉很多“仙家”很喜欢说“如果他怎样怎样，就不会搞到如斯下场。好了，那么为什么仙家们不在事前伸出你们的援手呢？

女佣的悲哀
相比前几天看的动画所要带给观众的感动，我刚刚无意中从电视上看到的一部电影更加感人肺腑，虽然他们操的语言对我来说是绝对的陌生。我在说的，是菲律宾在2000年的制作——“Anak”，我不清楚这个词是不是和我们的国语（马来文）的Anak意思相同，但是这部电影在西方国家是以“The Child”作为片名，所以应该是可以译为“孩子”。我不是从开头开始看的，但是从中间开始看也未必不明白之前说些什么，因为在那一刻故事才算开始进入高潮。看完回来后从Google那边搜到一些关于这部电影的Plot Summary还有一些相关资料，虽然不能够完全了解我开始看之前发生什么事，但是也聊胜于无啦。
