Hi everyone I am Liu Yu Xuan and this is my first post on this blog. Let me talk about my life and how I feel about school.
I don't think Hwa Chong is a world class institution, as I think it is not fit to be called that way. I found out that the students there are quite 'bad', though not all people are like that. However, cannot deny that the school's facilities are great. Also this school thinks it is very high tech and always make us use computers to do our work. I think we should just do our work on worksheets, while teachers can tell us verbally if there is anything important, and not leave things there in the SMB and let us check ourselves. One example is about the date of our history test. Mr Ho made us check the SMB instead of telling us verbally about the date. I think it is much more efficient if he just told us verbally. If he did that, it would take about half a minute, with one person talking while all 34 of us listening. How simple it is! And what happened was that 34 people turned on the computer, wasting time to on the computer and son on and contributing to global warming. Why are we so involved in computer? Isn't it simple to do things straightaway instead of using a computer? Just like the incident about the ethic agreement about that project- since it is compulsory, why still sign the ethics agreement? Why are there so many portals- smb, ivle,isp and so on? And why are the pupils seperated into consortiums? It's just so complicated! That's not all! We still got ACE points, OP points,and some kind of research studies. They just make things more confusing, just like adding oil to fire. However after saying so much, I think I still have to cope with it. sigh...
