Disappointed..............

The date today was on the 26 May 2010.Anyway, It did not start of very well for me as I vomited that morning and trust me, It is a bad feeling.I mean, I only reached the school for a simple ten minutes and then I vomited.
I quickly ran to the toilet as fast as i could and apparently Mdm Siti assigned Zhen Jie from 6A to help me.After the dreadful moment of vomiting and coughing out flam in the toilet, I went back to the hall and by then the hall was packed with students.
That morning, Mr Phua was giving a talk on Michael Phelps, I felt that it was very meaningful as I learned that just like Michael Phelps, we have to go through some struggles to achieve or even smell success.
Now this was the moment I was disappointed about. There was no P.E.I was soooooooooooooooo sad as it was one of my favourite periods just to see that it was cancelled.
At this point of time, I really wish that that whenver we are able to have P.E. It would not be cancelled.

Zero tolerance for cyber-bullies

1)State News Type: Cyber wellness

2)Write a few sentences about what the article is about

This article is about the number of cyber bullies that was increasing and that now the tolerance has gone down to zero. The article shows some of the people that was victims and apparently they could not identify any of the cyber bullies. Even with the police`s help, nothing could be done.The article is also talking about the ways or solution that could make this offence be put on hold.

3)My opinion

I feel that the cyber bullies can be really cruel. I could not believe that there were be such a person that would spam their victims on Friendster with sexually offensive messages. Apparently, there are and that they are very inconsiderate.

I feel that when any person is online, we should be careful with what we do. Whenever we do such bad or gruesome things to a person, we should spare a thought to the person. What might the people feel ? Will he or she would feel embarrassed? Would he or she feel any discomfort ?All this questions must pop up in our minds when we are on the net.

Tan Wei Zhen said that to be effective, laws should be less about wait-and -see, and more about being pre-emptive. We cannot just sit back and watch all the cyber bullies 'prey' on their victims.
I totally agree , I feel that if the authorities do not take charge, the number of cyber bullying can occur more often, that would be very awful.

4)If you have the power to influence or control the situation, describe what you will do.

If I was the goverment, I would create a software that would apply to any computer when on the web. This software would allow me to identify whoever that is typing or saying bad things on the internet.
