New media

ACJC girls having an illicit encounter in the toilet, Clementi Tyler jumped to his death after his sex video got exposed, schizophrenic woman hurling abuses at commuters.


Such news are increasing making themselves onto the headlines, blame it on the new media, or web 2.0, whatever they call it.


I feel exposed with the existence of such platforms. Who knows someday a stranger might just upload a video of me devouring 3 plates of chicken rice at one go, and i will be known as the chicken rice girl the next moment.


I always feel funny whenever i bump into the person whose blog i've been secretly reading. It's like, i know everything  about her, from the brand of her eyeliner to the brand of pad she uses,  yet she doesn't have a slightest clue i knew so much.


Isnt it creepy??


I'm having second thoughts about having facebook, blogs, etc. But i need to stay connected with my friends in the cyberspace!


Stupid JJC should have awarded me an A for my Project Work, because my topic was on "The liberalization of Singapore's media"


So relevant to our current society can.
