This blog post is dedicated to Mr Benjamin McKay
In loving memory,
Benjamin McKay was my lecturer for FTV1050 in Monash Sunway
He is the most lively, funniest, fun, motivated lecturer in Monash..
i enjoyed his classes very much.. and he gave me my first Distinction in uni
not to mention, boosted my interest for film studies
i am so saddened by this sudden news and can't get over it
he wrote me my recommendation letter to come here to study in Melbourne and made it sound so nice as if i was a real "star" student.. hehe
He also helped me and my cousin, Cheryl a lot with my bitchy lecturer who we had a fight with.. he was very comforting.. and sigh!
anyway.. he was always very sporting, like the time when Mr Wong Chin Huat (my journalism lecturer) got arrested for sedition.. there was a protest going on outside uni and Dr Ben took us to the protest to watch (and we skipped like half the class).. he was being so supportive haha..
Anyway.. news travel fast.. its all over facebook and twitter now..
and i found out that he hit his head and had internal bleeding in his apartment this morning..
seriously, bad things happen to good people
Rest In Peace Mr Benjamin
You will always be remembered.
XOXO
