注意:此乃无病呻吟之文章,不喜勿入。
生活,就像是个小孩,拿着一手满满的糖果,无时无刻,都在面对着一大堆更好吃的糖果。面对着一大堆更好吃的糖果,想要,手中却再也没有空间可以容纳。当篮子不是一个选项的时候,小孩无论如何都要首先把双手空掉,才能够再捧更多的糖果在手上。当然,小孩可以选择看不见,可以选择忽略,但是不要忘记,新口味的糖果天天都会出现,而手中的糖果也会有吃完的一天。总有一天,小孩还是得再次面对这种奇怪的状况。
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。
自从小妹因为课业需要开始霸着家里仅有的单眼后,我剩下的相机就只有刚刚在前阵子借温暖牌高利贷入手的N9(白色的刚刚发布,亮面就算了,还要是64GB……)。其实这手机的相机配备不错,至少跟其它这阵子出的几只备受瞩目的手机(4S/Galaxy Nexus)等级差不多一样,只是因为一些设计上的限制,所以虽然配备了f/2.2的大光圈,可是在低光拍摄表现还是有点差强人意就是。可是这次外拍是大白天,所以其实出来的画面还是不错的,只是这阵子并没有太多时间可以去耍玩这部手机,更不用说拍照,所以这次外拍可以说是我第一次用这部机拍那么多照片。
人之初,是不是一定性本善?
人的意念,究竟是本性驅使,抑或是後天環境使然?
人說一念天堂,一念地獄那人間又是什麼形式的存在?
這是個晴朗的一天,傾灑在這座城市的陽光在這午後顯得異常的溫柔。一股微風輕輕地撫過,彷彿是想要吹走街上行人心中的煩躁。一部又一部的車輛,此刻還在紅綠燈前蓄勢待發,等著各自前往車子內司機早已訂好的目的地。同樣急著前往目的地的,還有路上永遠熙來攘往的人群。小明趕著下一個約會,小華抱怨著又要多走一趟,同樣的故事,但永遠由不同的人上演著。
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.
