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.

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.

B咖包装的A咖剧本
最近很流行说“咖”这个字，无论是ABCD咖、咖啡、网咖、咖佬、咖妹、咖（念ga1）喱、大小咖还是别的什么咖，甚至电台也开了一个专说B咖应该怎么过生活的节目。所以为了证明我是追赶上潮流的宅男（一个会突然去爬树玩flying fox的宅男？），我也要用标题的那句话来形容这友人说完全是B咖级（B-grade）电影的District 9。基本上我还是很大胆的没有被这句话下到的主要原因是冲着Peter Jackson的关系，虽然在这之前他的Kong很令人惊吓（那是相反的——A咖包装的B咖剧本）。

製作特輯之心灵导师與男主角（一）
都說是筆記，所以小典老師一開始的設定頗老套。不過到了成品，老師的感覺應該沒有那麼「靈修」了就是。其實對這個角色也沒什麼好說的，大部份的戲份都是放在小月的成長期。如果沒有這個人，小月在過度關愛自己的母親的籠罩下可能會窒息而死。這角色對他來說有點像是彌補了父親這角色的空缺，所以到後期那親密的交流埋下了終究還是得離開的伏筆。也由於這樣，所以老師說的話始終還是會影響到小月。這樣的影響力，也造成了最後安排的結局。（從這期開始我不再標上後記的批次，也就是說沒有注一注二等）

食大茶飯啫，駛唔駛咁呀？
說起來也真的頗久沒有看過很引人入勝的打槍片，不是打打殺殺你炸我我炸你，就是情情塔塔你愛我我愛你。如果拍得好，一部講述打槍的片子其實可以很有型有格的。可是同時間，要拍得跟其他同類型的電影相比有差也不容易。前些日子跟小妹吃飯的時候，看到電視重播The Italian Job（中譯：偷天換日／天羅盜網／意大利任務）。裡面最令人拍案叫絕的，就是那場製造塞車以及那三部萬能的Mini Cooper。

意念致殲 第十五章 （下）
才剛回到住處，小月的門前就站著兩個警察，說是要再詳細瞭解狀況。本來小刀還以為跟警察坦白說這不過是個惡作劇，下場最多應該只是罰個款什麼的就算了。可是萬萬沒想到卻警方提控說是恐嚇，加上人證跟銀行戶頭正好曾經多了一筆錢而陷入了百口莫辯的境界。看著眼前滿桌的證據，他才知道「義氣」這兩字只是所謂的一廂情願。從一開始這新鄰居根本就已經設計好，自己就只是個受人利用的角色。

好，我不友善，那又如何？
这一篇不是给普通人看得，你不喜欢我的话其实不必看，这么辛苦，你不如选择离开会让你更舒服一点。我没有必要让你透过我的blog更喜欢我。其实我没告诉你们
女孩A正在和男孩愉快的对话，可是突然间女孩B当着男孩的面前和女孩A说悄悄话。还时不时防备着男孩来偷听，用着她那鄙夷的眼神防范着。
这个故事其实还有一个很重要的背景
事情发生在lecture hall里
不过也没关系，第一印象出来已经不是偏向好的一面，那么我又何必在意在陌生人面前建立良好的形象？或许我真的应该在我朋友每次说悄悄话的时候离开lecture hall，无论lecture是不是在进行中。或许我应该表现得更加gentlemen让人家没有嫌我的余地。或许我不该多心，不应该怀疑人家突然在我面前鄙夷的眼神防范这我偷听的时候是在悄悄地说我的坏话。或许这些东西我不应该放在心上，而是应该直接对她说，而不是在这里无病呻吟。或许我对我朋友表示的所谓尊重其实并不够。或许我应该坚信朋友是三世修来的缘分，应该好好呵护。或许下次我冲动的时候如果想一巴掌赏人的时候好像dobby the house-elf一样惩罚自己才表示我EQ够高。或许我不应该这么八卦，让人家有机会说我坏话。或许我不应该在我自己的blog写关于我朋友的事情，不然会令到她很不开心。
