red for danger
Hmmm, reports are piling up once again. School is still the same besides some lecturer I hate very much. So idiotic, maligned me saying I talked. Bloody toot, when did I talk? Never mind, I shan't be mad and spoil my day. Are the kids now getting from bad to worse? For the first time since my mum started teaching, batch after batch I see those kids getting worse and worse. Just now, a student make my mum soooo mad that she exploded. LOL. Because mid-year exam is arriving soon for primary school kids, so they need to practice those exam papers. Then, exam papers got answer sheet right, so my mum just used that to tell them the answers. She did says if there is any wrong answer she will go through it together later on. But 1 ' eat bao zhi dan' shouted vulgarities at my mum, saying she doesn't know how to teach, all those bad stuffs. So idiotic. You don't dare to do that to your parents at home, why do that to a outsider? You are just throwing you own face. So clever, you won't be attending tuition. People reason out why the answer is that still keep arguing. I must really salute these people. So nonsensical.I was thinking, our time we don't even retort back to teachers. Time have changed. Is it due to parents working and not making time for their children? Or is it friends influence? But if parents don't work I don't think they will be living in such comfort. As for friends influence, you can choose to learn from them a not. You yourself must differentiate between good and bad. So don't blame friends when you have changed. I think the kids now are too pampered. At a young age they have handphones, those high-tech stuffs. They are richer than me man! Hahaha.. So generations have changed. Wondering what will the children in the future be? I think teachers will go mad sooner or later if these children become worse and worse. But back to topic, among those bad children, there will always be good ones. So not all are bad =)Hmmm, after studying of 2 years in my course, in the 3rd year then I really realized the real danger and the importance of working in a plant.Recent news:Two dead, two injured in ExxonMobil refinery blaze in SingaporeBy Hasnita A Majid, Channel NewsAsia Posted: 03 May 2007 0941 hrs
SINGAPORE: An early morning fire at ExxonMobil's refinery at Pulau Ayer Chawan on Jurong Island has left two workers dead and two others injured. The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said the incident occurred at about 1.15am on Thursday. When firemen arrived at the scene, the blaze was raging at an overhead exchanger of a distillation unit that processes crude oil. It affected an area measuring approximately 1.5 metres by 4 metres. The fire was brought under control in half an hour. Both the dead are Singaporeans. Tan Kong Lam was in his mid-50s and Ng Swee Min was in his late 40s. The two injured workers were sent to the Singapore General Hospital. One of them, a Bangladeshi national suffered more than 70 per cent burns. A Singapore General Hospital spokeperson described his condition as dangerously ill. The other, an Indian national, had about 15 per cent burns. He is said to be conscious and alert but has been placed in the High Dependency Ward. ExxonMobil Singapore Refinery Manager, Steve Blume, said the company is sorry about the accident and is greatly saddened by the tragic event. SCDF is investigating the cause of the fire. ExxonMobil says it has shut down one of the two crude distillation units (CDUs) at the refinery, following the fire. The unit will not be started up until it is safe to do so. A spokesperson says the affected CDU has a capacity of 115,000 barrels per day. The other CDU, with a capacity of 185,000 barrels per day, continues to operate. She also says the refinery at the Jurong site is not affected. - CNA/ir/yy We just studied industrial safety and the importance and this happens. It's so dangerous. So safety first.
