to 买 or not to 买
要不要买Textbook，这个问题，和“今天去那里吃午餐？”这种问题都有一个共同点——就是很deep。因为越读越多，就发觉很多书是越来越不需要买，因为可以搜到的资源太多，而且如我之前所说的，课程一只都在重复，所以这个学期，我还在犹豫是不是要买数据库这一科的课本。因为相关的资料真的是随处可得，再不然如果真的有急用图书馆也有copy。可是我就是不喜欢到图书馆借书，因为需要被时间绑着，我怕自己读到欲罢不能不舍得还。 -
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.

她的付出，应该写进历史课本里大肆赞扬
但在之前，我不得不先为在前两天和平情愿而丧失性命的这位仁兄默哀，同时间也为自己的自私选择不出席而感到无比的羞愧。老实说，在当天尽管并没有出席，但是在社交网络上看到的消息是有点让人一方面为同胞们的勇气而感到光荣，另一方面也为本该领着纳税人支付出来的薪水的执法人员，用着纳税人有份支付的公费买回来的镇暴工具，来对付仅仅要求公平选举而不是推翻政权的纳税人。有什么比这个更可悲的，你来告诉我？

意念致殲 第八章 （上）
本來喜悲參半的心情，在一踏進老師的家門卻毫無準備地震攝住了。眼前所見的是滿牆大小不一，五顏六色且擺得整整齊齊的書籍。在得到老師透過眼神的允許後，小男孩奔了向前仔細端倪書架上的書本。這也難怪，玩具他多的是可是課外書卻不見多一本。這本來就是處心積慮為了自己兒子不在課業上有過人之處，所以媽媽才不曾買書回家。是以除了圖書館外，眼前這面書牆自然叫他看了振奮不已。

大众书局YES
前几天在电台听到一个目前很应景的潮流语言-那就是所谓的Y.E.S = Year End Sales。是的不错，上星期我是去了大众书局的年终大倾销。不要怀疑，经过了上次吉隆坡书展的呕血经验后，不怕死的我还是踏上了这条不归路……开玩笑啦，本来是不打算去书展的啦，因为……不知者不罪咯。哈哈哈。
不过这个书展如果拿来和那个吉隆坡书展来相比，我的感觉是，吉隆坡那个也算书展的话，那么也未免太贬低书展这个词儿了。哈哈哈……在这里，书本的价廉物美不在话下，也造成很多人来争相采购（当然啦，正版书籍和音乐专辑相比的话，我宁愿把钱花在音乐专辑，因为书本的价格实在高得离谱……）。中文部的部分一眼望去，都是三四十巴仙以上的折扣……当然要找到你想要的书是要费一点时间……
好了，我看到这样的价钱当然行动的不得了，本来是打算买Dan Brown让他一鸣惊人的The Da Vinci Code的，但是看到中译本和英文原著价钱相差一倍有多，让我决定买下中译本，因为还是价钱比较便宜的关系。
走到CD部门更加劲爆，虽然展出的专辑都是比较有点年份的专辑，但是最便宜的价钱竟然跌到5令吉一片……哇，既然大众要这么亏本，我也不好意思拒绝，成全他们吧，咔咔咔！本来是想找陈奕迅早期，在不然张智成名字专辑的CD版，可是翻了一遍后还是找不到，而我又没这样的好眼力再翻一遍（展出的专辑以至少百量计），正打算放弃的时候……竟然给我无意间看到陶吉吉的首张专辑，哇，拾到宝，再看标价，才9.90啊！！！不卖就真的走宝了！
这个星期，因为上次意犹未尽，所以再去到书展看看会不会那么幸运找到我要的专辑……这次我的目标放更广泛一些，要找的除了陈奕迅张智成，还有CraigDavid，陶吉吉第二和第三张，结果还是杠龟……不过，意外给我找到Tension的第二和第三张专辑……合计10令吉……哇，又拾到宝，算是这次失利中小小的惊喜吧……哈哈哈。
两次疯狂购物的战利品……
1。Digital Fortress中译本-Dan Brown （如果很精彩考虑买原著）
2。The Da Vinci Code中译本-Dan Brown（如果很精彩考虑买原著）
3。Google成功的七堂课-AndrewLo
4。陶吉吉-I’m OK
5。Tension – Gotta Be Your Man
6。Tension – 爱。星球还有因为得到10令吉折价券，我还买了哈里波特第一本-神秘的魔法石（Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone – JK Rowling）。其他已出版的五本，还是等我消化完手上所有的书本后再打算吧。
