Blog extract:

just heard some irritating news. apparently, some teacher read a student's blog in which she was called a bitch and a whole fuss was kicked up with said student getting a big scolding. the teacher came from a school which is the singaporean equivalent of a us high school, located somewhere in northeast singapore, where the students' uniforms have a distinct faecal resemblance.

my take on this? shoot the f**king teacher. doesnt she have any concept of blogging at all? doesnt she have any concept of privacy at all? firstly, how did she get to access the blog? if she wasnt asked there, she probably found it on her own, and that doesnt give her the right to comment on what students have to say on it. isnt a blog like an online diary, how could she access it and then chew out a student for what is essentially a private opinion?

secondly, with all our emphasis on students' opinions, initiative and independent learning, why are we penalising students when they do exactly just that?

finally, isnt it ironic that by doing what she did, the teacher is just proving that she really is what she s been called.


I picked this up from a friendz blog who picked it up from a JC teacher's blog (not TJ.. god forbid they would write something like this..)



My god.there is a digital god.sometimes it is so easy to forget that your teacher is just not a teacher but a person too and she or he is capable of having a blog too and probably might be reading ours. and knowing about our lives. My god, are we truly never free from them? For all i know, the next anonymous tag i receive would be from a teacher.. but I guess, there is always a flip side in the digital world.You know that when you publish a blog, that anyone could read it and since, teachers are actually not prehsitoric beings who live in caves, but are in fact avid users of the internet, could possibly be reading this. for all i know, YOU ARE A TEACHER! *gasp*


.creepy.


can you imagine a teacher reading your blog and then commenting on it,whether it be on his/her blog or on your tagboard and when you finally find out (god forbid! If you are a teacher *shudder* don't tell me!!!), you will have to censor your opinions and what you truly believe is yours, is no longer private but has free access. Its so suffocating! everything is an infringement of something else in this damn place! Is there no true freeedom? (well for all those who are about to say duh, let me stop u at the 'd' part and inject that it is a rhetoric question)


I feel extremely violated.


(and if you are a teacher,please do not even think about telling me!!! and no, I don't want counselling)


For all those who haven't watched Spiderman 2...


WHAT ARE YOU DOING READING THIS! GO GET TIX NOW!!!! (even if you are a teacher..)
It is absolutely brilliant. The emotional intensity and the anguish reflected cannot be surpassed. It truly reflects the torment of a hero who is torn between public service and his own life, knowing that when he can make a difference, he should but is unable to reconcile to the toll it takes upon him. And the beginning is sooo sad when he is misunderstood. But now that the ending is how it is, I wonder how well would they able to sustain the story. Would it just be a case of the usual struggle between good and evil? I hope not.

And denise is SUCH A PIG! haha.. jolyn too! they kept complaining how i spoilt the movie for them because firstly, when MJ tells Peter kiss me and doc octavious smooshes (made up word) through the window, I said He's coming! or some crap equivelent of that. I would actually acknowledge the allegation if not for the fact , THAT IT HAS BEEN PLASTERED IN THE TRAILER!!! AND NORMAL PEOPLE WHO WATCH TV WOULD KNOW THAT!!!


so


HA!


and secondly when MJ's boyfriend is announced, I whisper I bet that's MJ's boyfriend and I refuse to be blamed because it is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo obvious that duuuuuuhhhhhhhhhh it's her boyfriend. But because, they're deducuction skills is severely lacking, I am the hapless scapegoat.


I'm always wrongly accused and grossly misunderstood


(No thanks to the crap sms-s that are constantly sent to various people in my address book, curiously only limited to guys and more often than not with great professions of love)


If you're a teacher who is reading this who happens to know me and might be marking my JCT papers, please be nice.
