驚嘆化妝朮的雲端雜話
Tom Hanks，Hugo Weaving，Halle Berry，周迅，再加Wachowski Brothers（好吧，忘了一個前字，哥哥前陣子施了變性手術），這部片子，還未上映就已經想進場看了。誰知道後來因為種種因素，片子進來馬來西亞的時候已經是快半年之後的事情，再等到我入場就是快下畫的前幾天這樣。預告片中一直看到有亞裔的臉孔，本來還以為那是周迅（因為看到的文宣都是她的名字），還以為說化妝技術已臻如此境界。可是看完電影才知道，雖然周小姐名字打很大，但卻只是個小配角，那個片中頻頻出現的，是韓國人裴斗娜Doona Bae。

E-learning part 2
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.

不再把表舅父叫錯成姑婆的通勝攻略
正面點來說，華人遺傳的稱呼系統是很可愛的。可是反面，相較與很多其他民族文化，這稱呼的系統真的有點太累贅了一點。結果，每年尤其是新年期間，就是驗收一個人記憶力的時候。如果不想死背稱呼，那麼首先要記得的是這個人到底是誰誰誰的孩子。想起來後，就要根據族譜的排行調出這個人應當要稱呼什麼。如果一時想不到，而長輩又不在身邊，然後又剛好對方也摸不着頭腦的時候，那麼應該每戶一本的通勝就派上用場了。

睡眠周杂记
这个星期可以说超过一半的时间都用在睡眠上，如果和上个星期相比，productivity可以说是严重下挫。很大的原因，是因为自己真的太累了，所以累坏了。累坏了也导致自己开始病了，庆幸的是，只是小病，并不足一提。暂时可以说是接近痊愈的状态，也是应该开始继续我的工作了。目前手头上，累计的是清理房间（进度50%）+洗澡间，明天要交的质量控管的小作业，准备数据库系统的功课报告，以及继续物件导向编程的作业。今天道德教育的报告的呈现出了点小状况，很大的原因是在我这里没有太早给他们准备啦，希望下次可以更好。

悟不太道的衛塞節
昨天是紀念佛陀悟道之日，可我國卻屢次淪陷與各種人爲災禍的水深火熱之中。前面傲慢失言風波未平，後面疫苗註冊網站再出問題，再來傍晚又一記重錘——單日確診人數再創新高。連本來想趁熱鬧看個血月蝕，天空還不作美下了場雨，用灰濛濛的天似乎在嘲弄凡人如我等的作繭自縛。

我们是不是太过kiasi？
上了advanced diploma后，和diploma的学习生活相比，最大的分别是我们的参与感加重了。可是很有趣的现象时，每当我们的lecturer在课堂上发出问题寻求学生的答复的时候，她/他能等到的却只是沉默的空气。有一次，我们的psychology讲师甚至一针见血地说出：“你们根本不是humble（谦虚），而是kiasi（怕死）”。回想我以前的学习日子，从小学到中学，印象中我根本没有很多的机会在很多人面前表达自己的机会。我甚至还记得我在中学的第一次presentation甚至是一个failure……
