咖啡店的人們突然間都靜了下來,聽著老闆從收銀台前電視放出的新聞。權威博士遭殺害已經是萬眾矚目的事件,而加害的嫌犯也隨即落網。才沒幾天,司法程序還沒來得及啓動,竟然又爆出了這人在扣留所內自殺身亡。這一切戲劇化的起承轉合,整個就大大的出乎了公眾的意料之外。是以這起本來就已經很轟動的謀殺案,也在此事發生後引發更多的注意和反應。
行街故事本来已经告一段落,但是这几天话题仍然很热,出席者依然热血继续分享所见所闻自然不在话下,但没出席的仍然没闲着。没出席的,有些在得知(或事先已经知情我就不知道了)街头上的同胞被催泪弹攻击被水炮车追击,甚至手机讯号受干扰时,就大肆马后炮说自己早有预料早已经警告不要上街游行这不值得云云。另一些,则是在事后不断冷嘲热讽,甚至到最后一票人在网民的舆论压力下出面下跪什么的。
聚会完毕到现在,我还没有时间写这几天发生的事情。也感谢老天,这几天还是无惊无险过了。不过说实在,说是无惊也不尽然,不过应该算是船到桥头自然直的吧,有机会整理了出来再叙述。好啦,这几天除了工作吃饭睡觉,另外的时间都是花在blogosphere的交际。原因是上个星期六认识了一些新blog友咯,看来接下来的weekend我要去更新我的subscription list了,嘿嘿。到时候我的list越来越长,也就表示我花在阅读blog的时间越长,这有点恐怖……不过换个角度,这何尝不是一个认识更多人的管道之一?这几天,从不同人的blog看到了很多不同的出席笔记,也看了相当多的照片(可是还是不很多的感觉),感觉到处处都充满着喜悦。
如果你和我一样两年多前买了一部laptop,价值4千多元,然后不小心在近期撞烂,现在的情况是开机完全没反应几秒钟后突然关机。除此之外,已知lcd已经报销,要修理大概需要花上千多两千块,你会选择修还是不修?如果是我,我会选择放弃修理,不是说我趁机去追求新科技还是什么的,而是真的怎么算也不划算,用脚趾头来想也知道的道理。如果你持有不同的意见,而且认为只有我这样的人才会这么想的话,那么我可能要为自己辩护一下,这样想的不止是我一个人。
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.
终于有点时间写写这部电影的观后感了,如果不是我朋友硬拉我去,我想我大概不会想要看这样的电影吧,毕竟这类电影我一年大概只看一部这样。这部电影名字很直接,就叫做《Bridesmaids》,就一群伴娘的故事,其实说到底故事主要都围绕在Maid of Honor,也就是Annie(Kristen Wiig)的身上。先说说Kristen Wiig这个人吧,从资料看起来他是美国的一个叫Saturday Night Live这似乎是很胡闹的喜剧类综艺节目的其中一个班底,演过的角色似乎很多,其中一个还让一个男生因为模仿她而大红。
