it's friday!!! (",)feeling quite happy today.... coz it's
FRIDAY!!!! wahahaha..... had another short class today....
my 2nd class of
2007,
technology and world change aka
twc.... i am so blessed to have
fraemone in my class.... she is the
only 1 i know in the class.... all the other people i never see before one.... maybe got 1 or 2 i find them familiar but still dunno their names or anything about them.....
we had quite a hard time looking for someone else to join our group..... coz each group is only allowed 3 members.... she also did not really know the people in the class.... so we had to find someone who did not have a group at the moment.... luckily we did managed to find someone.....
alvin.... thank goodness we
"found" him.... otherwise we would have to take a much longer time to find another member....
1 thing i find interesting about twc is the textbook that we are expected to buy..... it is not like the usual textbooks we buy, it is like a storybook like that.... it is entitled
Guns, Germs and Steel: A short history of everybody for the last 13,000 years by
Jared Diamond.... i find the book quite interesting.... especially
Yali's question to
Jared Diamond....
"Why is it that you white people developed so much cargo and brought it over to New Guinea, but we black people had little cargo of our own"
it is like no one has ever questioned why the whites are always the superior power, the high and mighty ones, the ones who are deemed to be smarter than the rest, the ones who so called have
"the right to rule",
"the right to control others" etc... some people argue that it is because of genes and stuff... but is it really true?? i am quite skeptical about this so called argument of theirs..... well, enough of this
cheem stuff..... i still have to read 4 chapters of the book before lesson next week.... a whopping 90 over pages to read and digest......
aiya.... i really miss my
R85 pals..... so long never see them le.... over a month already.... even though school started, i have yet to meet anyone of them other than
ck for like what, 5 seconds, to pass him my
AS and
BGS text.... haven't seen
cindy for a while.... wonder how is she coping now..... also haven't been able to see
cherie,
friska,
daniel and
andrew at all..... so used to seeing them almost everyday last sem with all the projects, but now, don't even have a chance to catch a glimpse of them....
tml will be a very very long day for me..... i got
calculus make up lesson from 8.30 to 11.45, then
work from 12 to 3.30, after that i have to go to
jieting's 21st birthday party.... i confirm knock out tomorrow one lor..... thank goodness my sunday is free, no longer my
"biz law day" wahahaha..... can sleep longer before i decide what to do.....
