要說本世紀最可怕的東西是什麼,我首推社交網站。最近接二連三發生在自己身上的失言風波,整個讓我有點意興闌珊。我必須得承認,我有點太低估各個大大小小的電子網絡社交平臺帶來的影響。之前也不止一次說過(注:一、二和三),社交網站有點像是魔鬼契約,是需要不斷傾入靈魂的點滴才能生效的鬼東西。這鬼東西最後,會回饋的是很多假象。一種你隨時都有朋友在「關注」你的假象,一種世界都在圍着你打轉的假象,一種世界上只有你是主角的假象。
知道你够坚强,够硬净,够大块。知道你不会轻易被任何事情打倒,所以我相信你会继续走下去。有些事情不在控制范围之内,就不要为它终日烦恼啦。要知道,你关心他的同时,他会比你关心他更加关心你。所以,为了你自己,为了他,你要继续振作!(背景音乐:起来,起来,起来起来……)从同学大块饭知道你打算休学的决定的时候,我还记得那个时候晴天霹雳,然后一个孩子呱呱落地,啊没有,我是说我有一点震惊。我没有想到你会为了这么一件小事(其实不算小,但是和休学这个决定相比真得很小事)而打算放弃。无论如何,既然你已经付了这个学期的学费,就至少读完这个学期再走吧!
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.
不知道是不是最近这部电影在我认识的blogger群中很红的关系,所以我先撇开电台大力推荐的生日快乐,先看了这部自己原本并没有很想看的Blood Diamond。看这部电影可以说是只有一个字——等,然后再另一个字——等。因为时间的关系,我只好一直等,等了接近两个小时多才等到入座。等,对于一个睡眠不足,然后刚被考试摧残的考生,实在是一种很奢侈的活动。不过等待是值得的,虽然是已经是意料之内知道自己看了这样煽情的电影会有点心酸,但是惊喜还是排在后头。
不想用世贸大厦作为这次电影观后感标题的原因,是因为故事的主线和WTC没有很大的关系。所以就直接放一个更为切题的标题。没有很大的关系的原因,是因为这样的故事,如果放在别的大楼坍塌也是同样的。原因是因为故事的主角,不在那两栋大楼,而是在那两位生还者。所以,我个人认为电影取名为世贸大厦是为了噱头,就只是这样。唯一那几幕算是切题的,大概就是事发后目击者的那种惊讶的表情。
有些事情不是杀到埋身,是无法逼使我去想想之前的信念是不是值得修订的。这阵子其实过得极其荒谬,加上好多事情似乎像是约好的一样,一件一件完全不按牌理(虽然本身也不打牌这样)堆到眼前,还没来得及整理就得全部塞到寸土尺金的心脏这样。其实年龄也老大不小了,被催婚似乎在我们的社会已经变成是一种常态,甚至有时候尽管自己知道这样问人很没有礼貌,但是有时候也是不小心会问了出来,就好像是吃生菜那么自然(虽然也不晓得自然在那里)。
