(A) It was mentioned that "the mark of puberty between the ages of 13 and 17 signalled emotional maturity – a sign of readiness for a relationship". Do you agree that between 13 and 17 is a good time to go steady? And why?
(B) Interestingly, the article also mentions that sex was not a major factor when dating but rather companionship and conversation. Based on your own experience or interaction with your peers, how accurate or true is that opinion of our youths in Singapore?
A) i half-agree and half disagree. i think that it really depends on each person and his/her preferences as some may feel more emotionally ready than others. others may require some time to get used to commitment and caring for someone other than themselves. :D ♥
B) yes i agree as i feel that more people are looking for someone to be more than friends with them but not exactly get physical together :P most people just want someone there for them to turn to and be close to instead of just doing aimless stuff. :) so in the end i think that most youths just want a good friend and at the same feel loved by someone of the opposite sex. XD

Post-Lesson Reflection
a) I do not agree.
At this age, we might not be mature enough and might not be aware of the consequences of going steady. If we happen to start quarreling, we would not be able to handle our problems and feelings. Going steady also means a great responsibility that we have to hold. We might think that we are too young for the big responsibility.
b) I think that their opinion is true.

reflections on revealing information
reflections on ASTUTENESS IN REVEALING INFORMATION. i learnt what information to reveal and what not to. i also learnt what type of online nicknames are safe. any information i reveal is public and not private. once you post any info online anyone and everyone can view it. :( so its actually very very very very very very very dangerous as the strangers/pervies/rapists/dangerous ppl are able to know more about you and learn how to get close to you. :O byebye~

Cyber Crap
John was checking his email one day, and he saw this particular one, which was sent to him from someone he did not know. The subject of the email sounded urgent, so instead of deleting it, John clicked on it to read it.
Subject: 81 feared dead from swine flu in Mexico
I sent this email to you with a very heavy heart. I’m sure you have heard of the recent swine flu outbreak. Novel influenza A (H1N1) is a new flu virus of swine origin that was first detected in April, 2009. The virus is infecting people and is spreading from person-to-person, and has sparked a growing outbreak of illness in the United States with an increasing number of cases being reported internationally as well.
To date, A/H1N1 flu has killed 337 people in 121 nations and regions and the number of the total infected exceeded 80,000, a top official of the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Thursday. There are already 1003 cases in Singapore, a country known for its stringent health measures.
Just FYI, in 1918, there was flu pandemic -commonly known as the Spanish flu- which was caused by an unusually severe and deadly Influenza A virus strain of subtype H1N1, claimed the lives of 50-100 million people. Researchers are speculating if the one that is ongoing will have that high number of death tolls, that is, if the pandemic persists.
I’ve attached a file on how to protect yourself during this period of outbreak. I sincerely urged you to take a look at it, so that you can take the said preventive measures. You are not only protecting yourself, but also the people around you.
My cousin, who lives in Mexico, introduced me to a type of medicine that is said to work effectively. I’ve also given you the link in the file attachment. I strongly encourage you to purchase the medicine, as I have also purchased it myself.
Yours sincerely,
Max Wilkertin
Now, what should John do? Should he open the file attachment? Should he buy the medicine?
no he should not, for a number of reasons. firstly, he does not know the sender of the email and though the statistics in the email about the death toll may be correct it still isn't safe. if the drug really works, everyone would already know about it and not just through all these chain mails. the government would have also provided the drug for consumption as the toll in singapore is also very high. this mail could just be a way to instill fear in people's hearts and to get money of them.

session 5G- online relationships
Question:
Session 5G-Online Relationships
article
In this article,“The girl said she thought that after having sex with the boy, the relationship would last. Do girls her age normally think like this?” My question to you is:
Do girls her age normally think like this? Also, do you think its appropriate to go into a relationship at your age?
Pearlyn's response: I think that not all girls of her age would think that way. I think that it is inappropriate to do such a thing at her age. She should have the correct and mature thinking instead.
Ashley's response: No I do not think that many girls would not think that way as i for 1 did not think that way when i was 11 years old, the age at which the girl in the article lost her virginity. i also do not think that it is appropriate for a girl her age to have a relationship both on friendster or in real life. even if it is she should have been smarter than to give up her virginity to a guy that does not really care for her, because if he did, he would not have made her do what she did.
