Then we met a relief science teacher, very "fierce" la, actually teachers don't seem that fierce now that we've seen instructors angry. The teacher made everyone introduce ourselves to him, sort of like an ice breaker. Then we went off at 10 to prepare for syf, ate a quick meal then we took the bus there.
Singapore Youth Festival parade, first time i've been to the national stadium as a participant, and the place seems huge, larger than indoor stadium i think. Quite fun to rehearse there, gives you a satisfaction that you are in the parade. O yar i got another free tee shirt, =P I could have gotten free tickets too(but i decided not to)
Today in class, jemaine started telling me and tze jie that she and marie once had blogs. But they deleted them, why? Because blogs are the cause of problems in class. That's quite true you know? Maybe not the root cause, but blogs intensify the problem. It's sorta like back stabbing really, people blog as a means of venting their anger and cursing someone, if someone makes you angry, you would blog about him/her in your blog wouldn't you? And you'd do it with the fact that he/she has easy access to what you blog about, or at least friends who'd "sympathise" with you. Think about it: Almost every single problem in our class has someone blogging about it, even if it's over, blogging about someone you hate is much easier than going straight up to that person and saying it in his/her face.
If I read everyone's blog starting from the beginning, i would be sure to find at least one hate post right? Since enemies and hatred are part and parcel of life. But after that post? What do we have to say about the references and obvious facts that you dislike that person.(For eg. This post is so childish, like something minghui would write.) Wouldn't your blog turn slowly from a public diary/journal to a blog filled with thoughts of hatred and anger?
What is the point of a blog? Record events in your life? Publish your thoughts about certain matters? Showcase your work? Or is it to tell everyone you hate him/her because him/her is so...? Is it to let that person stumble upon your blog and see all your hate words? Is a blog just a method for you to show the world that you are "dead" your depressed, you hate your parents?
I think i'm pretty guilty of blogging about people too, probably more than once, if you really hate someone, go up to him or her and say why. Why do you have to tell the whole world you hate him/her? Would he/she change if you don't state your reasons?
Blogs are the main cause of the problem in class. I wouldn't blog about what specific people say but go take a look at my class member's blogs, including mine, hateful comments are just added in like jokes.
