hehe. i'm sniggering away while i'm typing this coz i'm not at my Teaching Convocation. In a way, i'm glad that i've got a flue bug that makes me sleepy and tired. This means that i really look sick when i visited the doctor and thus obtained one MC for the day.

I am in a desperate need to find time away from these activities because i've got a stack of essay papers to mark! Marking them is so hilarious. I was assigned the topic on zoos and whether animals belong to them. Some of my student's entries make me smile through the drudgery.

Student A: "Allowing wildlife can also be dangerous for humans. For example lions are unable to find food, they would naturally pounce on the next best alternative around. This would disrupt the natural food cycle and the effects can be very damaging. Imagine if lions were to roam free in the nature reserves in Singapore and are unable to find food, would they not just pounce on any passing joggers?"

hehe. really hilarious. back to my marking..
