Continued from previous post

Thurs was a rather routine day cept for an unfortunate incident during Econs. A fruastrated educator was triggered by the students' inability to meet deadlines and pay attention in class to lash out at the students. The educator's repeated and almost hysterical lament of "what's wrong with u guys?" seems to be screaming "what's wrong with me?" Well.... it takes 2 hands to clap....similarly, it takes two ppl to create a problem. Perhaps it is time for the educator to learn how to accept not just tolerate students. And perhaps it is time for the students to learn how to understand and cooperate with the educator. Handing in work promptly the next day would be a peace offering, but it WILL NOT solve the problem.

Fri marks the end to the hectic week schedule as I proceeded after sch to unwind with perc sectionals, followed by bridge training and dinner. Bridge training was extended as usual to 7.30+pm and so I reached home around 10, tired but glad for the long weekend.

Sat was scholarship day and I came to sch with my parents. Listened to DSTA, ASTAR and EDB's talk. Bleah...think i need to work on my grades first b4 considering any of them. At night was the percusssion concert by SPH, entitled "Energy". It was totally cool and impossible to fall asleep. The guest performers, Shanxi Drum Ensemble and the Western Percussion group Cincinnati, were extremely zai and inspirational. For those who missed the concert, too bad...

Onto some totally random stuff, i actually found time to look through the student handbook. There are indeed lots of redundant stuff in it and I just wish to put the spotlight on this particular one: "Recording in any form (audio or video) is only allowed after the explicit consent of the College adminstration and the persons involved have been given." I got this gut feeling that this rule is new and added only this yr...
*thinks really hard to try to recall what happened last year that involved RJC and videos

Under the internet/intranet Acceptable Use Policy, I found: "Inappropiate activites include accessing and posting distasteful, obscene, defamatory, derogatory or politically motivated articles on the Internet..... .. . ." Hmm... The only word I have a problem with is "distasteful". How do you classify an article as distasteful? Perhaps they meant not to the College's liking? Well...then would you consider wat I'm wrting now distasteful? Lol...

Uploaded a new song. Omens of love by TKWO. Note their precision in rhythm... and the melody is so catchy and nice....
