I just reached home an hour a-g-o. haiz sianz. i open my school my mail and this is what i saw on blogging...
"Dear students,
You may know by now that Blogging is a very popular internet past time and may have your own personal Blog site or participated in some.Whatever your blogging experience, here are some very important info to protect you.Recently 2 bloggers were charged under the Sedition Act for posting insulting and reckless racial comments on the internet. One of the blogger was jailed for a month while another was given a one-day jail term and a maximum fine of $5,000. (ST, Oct 8).In another case of 5 junior college students punished for criticising 2 teachers and a vice-principal on the Net. These students were suspended for 3 days and their parents were also informed. (ST, Sep 27)While you Blog, please stay on the right side of the Law and stay sensitive to other people around you. Do not blog on things that promote feelings of ill-will and hostility between different races or classes of the population of Singapore (Section 4 of the Sedition Act).Students should use the blog appropriately and not to misuse it to arouse social disorder or 'flame' a person online. In a multi-racial society like in Singapore, every citizen or resident should respect other races and religions. As all Bloggers are personally responsible for what they blog, please be careful.

Haiz the part about criticising the teacher and getting suspended is very darn LAME. i mean everybody have their own personal rights to say what they want to say. Arent we supposedly a democratic country? like... sometimes just dun understand. spore u tink still quite conservative about this kind of thing lor. that's why kids nowadays are not trained to think out of the box. As firstly they not even allowed to. Even if there are there is a limit. sad siah. Now watever i want to say online i also scared might as well write in diary ahz. then nobody see. isnt it lame if you say tat ur teacher or whoever is stupid or never think and you get expelled or even imprisoned for it. damn stupid i feeL. like no brain or mind to think like tat. Nth to say. i watching super funkies. so ciaoz.
I'll quit my ramblings XD {Tuesday, November 15, 2005 }
