longest week

This has been a very long week for me. I was supervised by two supervisors, Dr. Edwin and Pn. Suntari. Slept quite late most of the nights and finally today I all come to and end.
Could have done better, capable of better work. Dame it, you only have one shot at doing it and it’s do or die and was I ever de-motivated by what Edwin Said and I quote “ I am very disappointed with you, I fear for you and your students. =(
i am teaching the the future genaration better teach the right stuff or you destroy the future of these students man thats heavy...try to better myself and improve my teaching skills.

Yesterday, today and tomorrow



If someone asks you haw many days do we have in our life time? Well there are actually just 3 days in our life. Yesterday, today and tomorrow. The problem we face today is due to yesterday and what we can’t solve today will be tomorrow’s problem.

It used to be that the more you earn yesterday the more you can spend today or tomorrow, but with the birth of credit card and loan, we now actually can spend tomorrow’s money today! Spending future money today and paying it back tomorrow.

I am now spending my future money. I will be paying back Rm200 a month when I start working in the future. I pray and hope that the economy will be good, because if the prices of goods skyrocket I am going to have a hard time paying back my present Education loan from PTPTN.

Together forever



When we decided to be together
A bad habit was beginning to form,
I began to lean on you
My weight shifted towards you
And your stability started
Depending on my support

Our posture look awkward
Like our cripple love
No one will fall down, yet
No one can stand right
No one can leave one another.

Time and friendships


Time will age the youth
And fade the memories
Friendship die
With distance and time

People change in the course of time
What is left of yesterday
Is but a bitter, sweet
Memories
The past is for reminiscent.

Flower


When there is spring breeze
I will brilliant brightly bloom
No matter if anyone passes by

Stress

Stress
There is no good or bad stress just big or small stress. In a way it is a type of motivation or a reason for suicide. Its your expectation of your self or past experience that make stress big or small.

Say what you mean, mean what you say

There was once a host who organize a party. Some of his guest did not show-up so he said “Why hasn’t the one that should come, haven’t arrive yet?” when the guest that has showed up for his party heard what he had said walk out of the party feeling insulted and that they should not have come to his party. To make matter worst the host seeing his gust leaving said without thinking “oh! Now the one that should have stayed have left!” the remaining gust left the party thinking that they should not have stayed.
From this story it is clear that it is important to think what your listener may feel from your comment. You may not meant what you said but people may interpret differently from what you mean.

Education is not filling a bucket but lighting a fire’

Education is not filling a bucket but lighting a fire’ said W.B. Yeats and most English teachers would agree with him in principle, if not always in practice.The reason for this practical qualification, of course, is that education legislators over recent years seem to have more concerned with emphasising “bucket filling” in schools and telling teachers what should and should not go into the bucket than with safe-guarding and developing the inspirational. Perhaps this is inevitable, in that it is far easier to legislate for the tangible, but it sometimes seems as if counting and measuring the components of the curriculum have endangered our sight of the whole process and its purposes. The ‘Standards’ may themselves be regarded as one more example of this preoccupation. It is likely to be in the broad field of ‘literature’ teaching that the inspirational aspects of English teaching are likely to be most keenly felt and it is here that the philosophical distinction alluded to by Yeats often may be transformed into a struggle of supremacy.
DAVID STEVENS(TTA,1998,p96)
Teaching
Teaching is without a doubt the most important profession; without teacher there would be no other professions. It is also the most rewarding. What role in society can be more crucial than that which shapes children’s lives and prepares them for adulthood?Teaching: A Guide to Becoming a Teacher(TTA, 1998,p.1)
I think this is very true and in a way make a lot of sense. I guess I should go into the field of teaching with that kind of positive attitude and hopefully that strong positive attitude will remain until the day I resign, not becoming bitter and unmotivated with the uphill task of teaching student who most of them don’t really like to go to class and therefore uninterested in learning.“ You can send your child to school but you can’t make them learn if they don’t want to” for those teacher teaching in secondary schools they have to face with a bunch of student who are going through their puberty and it is said to be the most difficult years where their own parents face problem communicating with them.
