essentialisms of a peer review
never mind if the title i proposed sounds weird. never mind if u dont agree with me that having peer review is essential. never mind because i got MY 'revenge'. sounds rather bad la. but i dont realli care.
finished presentation todae! for contemp. and i finally saw the faces of those so called omni-present group members of mine. r n sw took up a tad too much time at the front so i had to zoom thru my slides at the end. but im fine. cos we did fine. =) thankew girls. altho as usual u wont get to see this. haha. i do enjoy talking to myself more and more and MORE. and peer review was rather simple. juz rate ur grp members on a scale of 1-10. one special creative writer got a high score of 2, one had 5, 2 had 7 and 2 had 9. very good. anyway the more u get the more contribution you did. simple and short n sweet. and stil have the cheek to upload YOUR edited version of the essay at near 3 am in the morning when ben xiao jie has areadi uploaded it at 1am and having my precious slumber. and stil drop me an email saying u did ur own research and added in but din put in biblio until last nite? apparentli u don bother to add the 2ndary articles that i helped to find. didnt bother to explain what interesting findings u had. onli piled on ur creative work and flowery language which was irritating to the max. weekend u juz don bother la. until i post this
dear all,then u noe how to respond la! now i tell u ah. I DONT CARE!
final report is up. special thanks for ur contributions. finalli made it in time. you know who u all r! =)
and as more things are no more tangled in my hair. i still have 3 more deadlines to go. stop hunting ppl down AGAIN for gods sake. how irritating can it get man.
B for the eco B star assignment thing. okae la. judging on how quickly it was actualli done. HA.

new skin
i have a new skin agn!
still in the midst of editing buden all the images are my own! so i shall edit them nicely so can use...like the header alot! pretty venice loh...
so now i can have titles, comments, labels...and the archive is organised in a v pretty wae too! don realli noe why they disappear when i use the blogskins from blogger..heh...
hardworking okie...i went ivle to forum...haaa...
contemp soc on maids:
I think the main reason why maids are being treated as sub-human is that most Singaporean households that do hire maids see them as being different. They differ in nationality, level of skills and most importantly, level of education. These differences are substantial as we see them as being unable to achieve PR status (even if they want to), unable to work in higher skilled and higher paying jobs due to their family background and learning capabilities. We often label them as stupid when they cannot do their household chores well because (as many replies mentioned) we employ them simply for that purpose, and thus have a certain expectation. We believe that maid agencies are able to do their best in 'quality-checks' on their abilities before maids are being sent to work in homes. Similarly, we see an abundance of cases whereby maids are being abused simply because we see stereotype them as meek and weak women, and in worst cases, see them as products that are being exported for our own 'use'.new prod devt just to start a new post (dont even noe if it makes sense) on intellectual property for tags:
I feel that Singapore women are faced with a dilemma when they employ maids. On one hand, they hope that the maid can cope with all the household chores and keep up to her expectations. When relatives praise the maid when they visit the house, the employer will also feel proud because it seems as if she is the one who has 'taught' the maid to be so efficient, when in some cases it is actually not true. Conversely, employers do not want to pale in comparison with the maid where household chores are concerned. Some relatives might comment that maids are employed because the employer cannot cope with the household chores well. On the same note, women who employ maids also fear that their own children become too attached to their maids. I have seen cases where children refuse to be carried by their mothers and prefer to be taken care of by the maid.
Although my family does not employ a maid, my friends around me have always managed to make their maids a part of the family. They are treated just like an additional family member. When maids have to leave to return home, it feels just like sending a relative overseas.
Just some random thoughts. =)
As I use the websites for blogger flickr and youtube, I was just wondering who first 'invented' the tag? I feel that it really does make organising more convenient. Information in the form of photos, blog posts and videos can be easily retrieved simply by typing the keyword (provided users don't use funky spelling for ordinary words).world's most unproductive dae. blah~
