okay, im totally feeling very bored rigt now. and, so, im like doing my homework.
and, i think im the only one who is starting the fourth question. unbelivable of me right?
haha. so, let me do the fourth question.
and, we're suppose to create our own issues on the fourth post.
so, let me think, what i can write about.
well, i guess i'll be writing about this.
and please, comment on it.

4. what does hard rock means to you?

okay, first of all, i like listening to hard rock. i find it very nice to listen to.
:D
so, i'll tell you my point of views on hard rock.

the stylistic origins are from, rock and roll, blues rock and psychedelic rock. cultural origins are from united kingdom, during the 1960s. the typical instruments for hard rock is electric guitar, bass guitar and drums.
The term "hard rock" is often used as an umbrella term for genres such as punk, grunge, and heavy metal in order to distinguish them from the more radio-friendly pop rock genre.

there's three era in hard rock.
let me list the different kinds of bands in this three era.
:D

first era (1970s)
Led Zeppelin's third album, Led Zeppelin III was more pogressive rock-oriented than their second, but the heavy aspects of their music remained. In 1970, Black Sabbath released what is considered the first heavy metal album, Black Sabbath. Black Sabbath's music was revolutionary even in hard rock; it was typified by dark lyrics, hard riffs and a heavy atmosphere, transforming the current hard rock into to an early form of heavy metal.


second era(1980s)
In 1983, Mötley Crüe released the album, Shout At The Devil, which became a huge hit. Van Halen's album MCMLXXXIV became a huge success, hitting #2 on the Billboard album charts. In particular, the song "Jump" reached #1 on the single chart and is considered one of the most popular rock songs ever written. However, 1984 was also their first to include the use of keyboards and synthesizers, marking a shift away from their original guitar-orientated style.


third era(1990s)
The early 1990s were at first dominated by guns 'n' roses and metallica. The multi-platinum releases of Metallica's "black album" and Guns N' Roses' use your illusion I and use your illusion II in 1991 showcased this popularity. But the popularity of such bands waned, as their music and attitudes became more decadent and self-indulgent. In 1991 a new form of hard rock broke into the mainstream.

by the time it enters 2000s, hard rock starts to decrease.
i know that lots of people dont listen to songs which are older then them. but, i really recommend you guys to listen to some of those bands that are being bold. thanks.

& i feel like everything i say is being swept away


well, im feeling very bored right now. so, i've decided to be ahead of others.
:D

3. if i were a teacher, i would like my students to (be) ....

so, if i were a teacher, i would like my students to be what they are. just keep it original. and, if they did a mistake, i expect them to apologise. be truthful and honest. that is what i want from a student.
an example,
if a student is late for class, the best way to apologise is...
-respect honesty from my students and will not tolerate anything less. Be honest and sincere, tell me you want to do the responsible thing and take the heat for missing the class, and tell me you won't do it again. I can usually tell when a student is trying to BS their way out of a problem, and that usually makes it worse.The only real way to get respect is to also give it.

and you guys read the last sentence? which is the only real way to get respect is to also give it. that's the most important thing for a teacher. you must always respect your students. if you respect them, they will respect you back. i must not be unreasonable. if i am, none of the students will listen to me and respect me.
that is not a teacher wants their students to be.

teachers want their students to be enthusiastic, full of curiousity and many more. this makes a teacher to teach easier. if their students are naughty or rude, it's very difficult for the srudents to pay attention.
and, most important is that, a teacher lesson must never be boring. if not, none of the students want to pay attention to a teacher's class.



well, that's the end of my answer. i hope it's useful or something. so, good-bye.

HELLO(:
well, i guess im sort of ahead from others somehow.
:D
it seems that i'm already starting to post the second issues.
while some are still hogging around at their first selected issues.

2. Discuss, "A platonic friendship is possible even between a guy and a girl(close bonding between a boy and a girl does not necessarily mean they like each other)".

well, first of all, i shall explain to you guys the meaning of a platonic friendship.
a platonic relationship is a close friendship between a man and women.

The reason platonic friendships can be difficult is genetics. For a good portion of us, attraction to the opposite sex is genetically “hardwired” into our psyche. There’s no way to avoid it. We find the physical form of the opposite sex attractive, the opposite sex exudes pheromones that we find attractive, even something as simple of the timbre of the voice of a member of the opposite can trigger a romantic response in us.

Add to that the fact that nothing makes a romantic relationship more successful then when the people involved are “friends first”, and it’s easy to see why platonic relationships can be difficult to keep strictly platonic.

But many platonic relationships do not work well. When romantic feelings spring up in both parties, then the friendship turns into a romantic relationship and everyone is happy. But a good portion of the time only one of the friends becomes attracted to the other, and then the platonic relationship is in trouble.

So, can platonic relationships work? Yes they can. Romantic feelings between the sexes don't always exist, leaving room for a very fulfilling and lasting friendship.


oh well, that's the end of my post.
i guess it's quite long actually.
and, im proud of myself.
:D

well, im suppose to post comments about selected issues.
this is a some kind of english blog.
though im an anti-blogger, this is some kind of no choice situation.
this is a blog where my classmates read it and my teacher grades it.
so, let me start to write the comment about selected issues.

1. "how can we ensure that we can be responsible and unkeep moral values when in a relationship with the member of opposite sex. do you agree?"

first of all, when we are in relationship, we must be ready towards the society. Though im not in a relationship, and i dont really know much about it, but, i'll try my best on this issue.
:D

so, when we're in a relationship, we must be honest towards each other. we must no lie or backstab our patner. we must also not betray them. and, most important of all, we must not be a timer.

we must also respect each other. when your patner is talking, listen to him attentively. dont budge in or something. you must also respect your patner thoughts and likes. you must never critise you patner of offended him.

and, the most important thing in relationship is, we need understanding between us. it is not possible to have a relationship without understanding. with understanding, we will know our patner better. and, when we have a problem, try to settle it nicely.

so, if you want to have a relationship, you must have all this characters which i've just listed it just now.
