Apathy? Laziness?

February 14, 2008

I’ve read through the blog posts of almost everyone in my two classes and I must say that I am rather impressed by the standard of writing. What I am more surprised, however, is the lack of interest of many of you, my dear students, in reading, or more precisely, commenting on your classmates’ wonderful journal entries.

Is it that students do not bother about what their friends have to say? Or is it that students cannot be bothered to leave an encouraging or critical comment after reading? Is it apathy or is it laziness? Or is there another explanation to this phenomenon? Perhaps someone would like to enlighten me.

Anyway, I’ve embedded a video in this post. I found the video rather hilarious initially. My baby girl enjoyed it too. However, after several more viewings, I felt a little sad.

What is it in the video that is making me sad? Anyone would like to guess?
