Mid Autumn Festival

After so many years, i still cannot understand how Mid-Autumn Festival justify the littering of public areas with used sparklers and the amount of vandalism caused by the candle waxes.

Anyway next week is e-learning week, and this is what my lecturer said: "For e-learning week, study chapter 7 on your own. You may want to refer to the textbook so that it is easier to understand."

A question came into my mind. What is the point of having lecture in the first place, if we can understand the materials just by studying the notes and reading the textbook.

In fact, most of my lecturers are not really well-prepared for this e-learning week. Most of them just upload the notes and that is it. I cant help but think that the school is carrying out this trial too soon, without giving adequate time for the prof to prepare. Either that, or the prof cant be bothered. Perfect example of good cause, bad execution, bad results.
