I don't know if I will take it as a joke or just KB is a joker or has too much sense of humor injected in her diabetic veins. That woman is a writer (rye-ter) it could be a wheat with wit? Nah, that's my blog. Hehe.
Can you just imagine a fellow blogger would have the nerve to point directly about many politicians having to borrow many passages and verses from known authors, philantrophist, philosopher and God knows who are the real authors of those wise sayings and beautiful wonderful highly acclaimed words of wisdom. You probably will never know who will inherit the many blogs here in the internet after 20 years, 50 years or hundred years. Some of the most popular verses were taken from the Holy Bible and were then memorized by other individuals and made them into their own. I wonder what God Almighty will think or say about that anomaly.
Also is it not ridiculous that when an asian person writes a poem, essays, and has provided views and article that is overwhelming like it's over the top and what is the first reaction? Oh, it was copied from the book. Or it was not that asian person who made it. They cannot do something good. That was plagiarized and taken without permisssion.
That's why when you want to quote somebody for your written article you have to ask permisssion or you can quote the person who made it or at least mentioned the name of the author thereby leads you to not punish yourself of guilt.
In my elementary years, memorization or the rote system is required. It should be. Mandatory! Only then you can learn you know. Bilinguals or those having multi-lingual languages need to apply the rote system too. You really have to sleep with Webster on top of your head. Learning the many vocabularies. For if you don't know the words you would have problem with grammar and spelling. While me I construct my sentences, statements in a manner that I'm speaking with you. My tone and pitch is not that perfect but I made a point to learn (again). Asians have accent when they speak. That's normal unless if you are born and schooled in a foreign schools in the US, Canada or UK.
I was used to memorization using the textbook that we used in school. rote system. we are trained to that kind of system and I don't know if they have the same implementation. Many of the students in my class including me have perfect score when it comes to test (ing). It is probably because of the result that our class was subjected to routine inspection or introspection by memorizing details after details of poems and verses and article for declamation from the book. Some of them are longer than 5 to 10 pages. We all have to face the whole class and recite them in front of the class without looking at the textbook or from the source. Why that kind of obvious ceremony every week or twice a week? We had a president who can deliver a long message to his countrymen that lasted for mor ethan 3 hours non-stop. The speech was written in various newspapers and the speech is longgggggggggggg that it occupied the whole newspaper. What happened to the ADvertisement? Read the label.
Right on! It was like Village of the Damned. Damned if you know. Damned if you don't.
When I was in college, my professor called me while she was staring at my test paper in Taxation and Agrarian Reform. It was my first time that she called me in front of the class. "Come here Miss V------! While I was walking towards her I heard the class murmuring like busy bees. Yeah I know they love to hear my name. Only to find out that my professor who already on her retirement age wants to scold me for changing the many definitions in the vocabulary words she'd given us based from the textbook under Martial Law. "Why are you changing the definition from the book?" she was mad at me. I only replied that, " I have to use my own words based on my kind of understanding of those laws." She quipped also in almost philosophical way, "Next time used the exact words from the book. Your definitions are longer!"
