本该1月1日发布上来比较应景,但是望着荧幕半天却不知道该如何下手。
又一年了,回想起来自己的确做了不少的东西,也学了不少的东西。又一年了,电影看了无数部,音乐也听了无数首(专辑嘛,数数去年大概买了有6张之多。又一年了,破天荒地换了部还算多功能的电话,连带用了一年多的号码也换了。又一年了,网志的程序也换了两三个。又一年了,讨人厌的仍然那么讨人厌,好久不见的朋友也仍然是那么久还不见。又一年了,思想幼稚的仍然是那么的一出口就令人想丢垃圾过去。又一年了,年头所订下的目标也还未曾实现。又一年了,还好也认识了不少志同道合的博客(Blogger?)。又一年了,我房间的摆设换了又换。又一年了,去年年头染的发色也慢慢变回原色。又一年了,功课的负担却未见减轻,尤其是学期末。
又是一年的过去,希望明年的元旦,我不会发布这样无聊的post。
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.
昨天掉了東西,故心情很糟,所以想寫點什麼來發泄一下情緒,卻苦無對象。一直到剛剛才發現,好像可以寫給你。老丟東西的習慣說真的似乎沒有改善過,唯一不同的可能是說,人長越大,掉的東西引起的後果就越嚴重。說到這裡,還倒是很懷念你不見眼鏡的那次,記得當時一整天心情都很忐忑,甚至到如果可以很不想回家面對。還有那次掉錢,然後在學校書店前哭到呼天搶地結果老師不得不幫忙墊錢。
本來也沒有很想去看這部電影的,只是這些日子看到的都是對此片的回應頗為正面,就去看了。一看之後驚為天人,是說好看的科幻片已經買少見少。其實本片故事結構極其簡單,可是拉長到兩小時填補了細節部份卻不覺單薄。相較同是科幻包裝的The Host(譯名《宿主》或《天煞奇緣》),此片拍得更富詩意。雖然兩部片都有情愛的描述,但是手段的高低完全不再同一個檔次上。
因为不知道巴别塔有着什么样的意义,所以上网去找了一下资料。对的,今天看的第二部电影,就是这部巴别塔。这是一部有点淡的电影,虽然前半部看得我有点紧绷,谁叫他们好播不播在电影正要开始之前,播一个恐怖片的片断,而且好死不死紧接着下来的就是看到抢的出现(好啦,我不经吓……)。说有点淡,是因为这部电影就是从头到尾都铺排的很慢,感觉就是有点紊乱,但是紊乱中还是有次序,仿佛就是一个人在你面前说着一个很复杂的故事。只是条理有一点点脱序,不过算是还好的了,因为人总不能像部电脑什么都要实现安排到很完美再来present的吧。这部电影就是一个临时间在一个咖啡厅,坐你对面的一个朋友一时被鬼撞倒决定说个故事给你听,但是股市又不是简单的童话故事,于是一直都有补充一些细节的状况。说了这么多你是有影没有?
我在想,我们下次的blogger聚会会不会是最后一次?再下一次就要改名了,原因是大家都不敢再写blog了?今天赶路上课的时候恰巧听到数字电台的早晨时事节目听到一段让我想当不开心的新闻。本来这个不开心在学院呆了大半天就不记得了,回到家竟然偶然看到很多人对这则新闻的评论,才又想了起来。请原谅我用这么悲哀的开场来祝福我们的国家国庆日快乐。
