新年期間在陳氏書院參觀之時,其實還發生了一點小插曲。是說當天儘管人不是很多,但是現場還是設了幾個小攤子,其中一個就是新生書局售賣的舊書。據說這些書,是在他們清理雜物的時候翻出來的老寶貝。不過無論如何,秉著過年必敗書的傳統(有嗎?),我硬是挑了一本。今天想說沒哏了要擠篇文章出來的時候,才發現時日已久我都忘了買多少錢。這樣就沒辦法算算這些年通膨了多少好可惜(是說也太誇張)。
因为电讯公司促销的关系,所以本来已经没sub-line的老豆有机会开一个给我了。同样是因为懒惰的关系,所以选了一个颇多重复号的号码。只是当时有个号码是有连续五条六的,但我目前的号码只有三个七已经给老妈子取笑所以决定不要很多“碌”的号码。不是迷信还是什么的,而粤语那么多六很难听啦。
到了我预付过期前一天,我通知了全部朋友我的新号码。有趣的是可能因为好久没联系吧,有些已经换号码了,也有些因为不见电话把我的号码也连带弄丢了。看来大家也是时候约个时间聚聚。不然有一天大家可能真的变陌路。
呵呵,这次是第一次用电话GPRS写Blog,手好酸!
虽然在网络上,看到Avatar这个字眼我们都会下意识link到所谓的大头照或头像,不过同一个字在这部电影应该叫个什么替身或是什么的比较贴切吧?不过老实说,看完了,一整个会觉得之前Bruce Willis打到要死的Surrogates完全是超级小成本制作。不过特效人人都能做,这在现今这个时代已经是有钱就能办到的东西还是说说就算了,回到最重要的点,自然是故事本身。简单来说,这是一部大体上来看类似《无间道》的电影。不过如果这样说,这部电影……或者应该说很多电影都是集天下之大全(难听点叫天下文章一大抄,不过抄袭这个issue最近很敏感,我选择另一个说法),基本上这部电影就是The Matrix、Pocahontas、Surrogates、无间道、Harry Potter、The Lord of the Rings等等电影的综合体。
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.
用惊骇来形容当天的感觉……我希望没有整个给人很惊悚的感觉,不过当天的感觉用这两个字在我个人看来是相当贴切的。长了二十二个年头,身为什么多元民族的大马公民,说是第一次去见识大宝森真的是说出来会被人笑到臭头,嘿嘿。今天放工前趁着空档问了问同事关于大宝森的神话,不过她只是说一匹布这么长然后说这是什么许愿还愿之类的节日,然后丢给我这一个link就完事了……
今天终于能够抽空赶去看这部动画(Over The Hedge)了,太爽了,有多久没有在戏院大笑了,爽到不得了。还好今天赶得去看,不然恐怕要抱憾了,因为似乎快要下画了。这部动画和dreamworks的其他动画作品一样,都是找来一大堆大牌来配音,比如说The Shark’s Tale的Will Smith,The Shrek的Tom Hanks等,这部有大只佬Bruce Willis坐镇(不过我很少看他的电影,不能够recognize他的声音,你知啦,我这个年代的小朋友是看The Matrix长大的,所以不认识也不全然是我的错)。很喜欢看卡通动画类的作品,因为不会看到演员的搏命演出因为喜欢自己很kidult的一面(所以给人嫌酱大个人还看卡通咯)
