My First presentation in INTI

This Monday I have my first presentation in Inti. It is our moral presentation. My group members including chin chau and stephanie. We just finish the slide in the previous night. Steph have made a lot of designs.

There are 4 groups present that day. We are the last group to present. Mr Ng start the presentation from 12.30pm. The first 2 groups just used 50 minutes to present. However, the third group used about 40 minutes. Therefore, when it is our turn, it already 2pm. Steph and my friend have classes at two, but we had to finish the presentation first.

Finally, we finished our presentation. However, I am not happy about that. Firstly, we wait too long for other groups. It shouldn't be such a long time for them to present. Secondly, I think that they only read what in the slide. My friend told me it is usual in INTI, but is it good? It is just like reading an article on the presentation. My teacher told me that presentation is try to attract the people to understanding the topic, by telling them in your words and also your opinions. The slide also shouldn't be too long and fullfilled with words.

In the future, I still have many presentations. I look it as the chance to train myself to speak infront of the people.

My Poor Exam result

I think this weak is a black week for me. I have get 3 test results. however, none of it is good for me. These 3 test are moral test 1, ECO151 mid-term, ENL101 mid-term.

For the moral test 1, my lecturer didnt pass back the exam paper for us. He just write our marks beside the attendance. Everyone can see others' result. I just get 11 marks. I think the full mark is 20 cause many people get it and it is the highest mark also. This is just the start.

Next day, my Eco lecturer pass back the exam paper. Although my mark is slightly higher than average mark, but I still cant satisfied about it. My aim is more than 80%. But I only get 48/70, less than 70%. I have ruin my second essay question. Thats why I cant get high marks. I think the problems I have in the test is I dont know how to illustrate the point, dont have enough time, and the organization about the point. Even I understand what he teached in the class, but I think these are the problems I face when I write the essay question.

The worst is Enl paper. Since my second part was very terrible, I only get 28 marks on it. Now I worried about my CGPA. I afraid that my enl cant get a well result and low my CGPA. I think I only hope that I can do better, no, do the best in my final exam.

Gratz to my friend

Last Thursday, Chun Sheng told us that he was informed that he get the scholarship from Bank Nagera. He will be studying in UK for the accuonting. All of that day, he felt excited and happy.

This is the first time I saw him so glad abot something. He got 11 A1 and 1 B3(moral, too bad) in SPM. However, he cant get the JPA scholarship. Since I first time recognize him, he keep nagging about he cant get the scholarship, blamed about the moral. Even Matrix, he also cant get it.

He had to study for A-levels first before he start his degree. Until now, he havent received the offer letter to A-levels. However, he confirmed that he wont continue study at Inti. After A-levels, he will go to UK about 3 years.

I think the scholarship is good for him. However, there are a conditions that I not very like. This scholarship have bond about 10 years. It means that after he back from UK, he had to work for BankNegara for 10 years. Although it make sure he will have jobs after graduate from uni, but I think that the duration is too long. Another things I worried is whether he interested in Accounting.

However, since he make the decisions. I only hope that he will have a nice life at there.

Gathering at Subang Jaya


Although we have graduated from our high school for about half year, we still always keep contact. Seldom, my ex-classmate will have a gathering. It is a good way to maintain our relationship and get the latest news about others. Therefore, they have a gathering trip last week at Subang Jaya.


Why at Subang Jaya? It is because that many of our classmate start their further study already and most of it are stay at KL and Nilai. So, my friend decide to come to Subang Jaya and stayed at those who study at SJ house.


I and another 6 friends went to their after our class. The first night we reached at there, we just go around the subang jaya. I think my classmate are crazy already. Their favourite is playing Dota together. Even they at SJ, they also go to play Dota together. Isnt it crazy? Then we went for bed about 3am.


At the next day, we had to wake up early. Erm....I think not everyone wake up early, because Ii had to wait them for a long time. At 11am, we reached Genting Highland. The ticket for the outdoor theme park is really expensive. It is about RM44. We also reached at the wrong day, cause there are raining twice that day. We had to wait for the rain stop. However, I think it is the most excited part for us. It is really nice go out to play with a group of people. We wont have nothing to talk. We laugh make fun with each other. We take the bus leaving Genting at 8pm. When I reached Pudu, I only felt hungry cause I havent eat from one. My pity stomach.


Sunday, we went to Sunway Pyramid after we having our brunch. Some of us went for ice-skating and others went for shopping. This is the third time I went to skating. It really fun, but the I have to suffer for the pain in my leg for a few days. I think it is worth. That day we just laugh at each other when they fall down.


We left from SJ about 4pm and reached here about 6pm. Although it only 20 of us, but I really like this gathering.

Home

Last week, I back home after the ENL mid-term test. When I reached home, I felt very happy. It is different stay at hostel and stay at home.

During the weekend, it is very if I stay in the campus. However, it is different if I stayed at home. With the accompany of the family member, it is really good. They give you a good mood to stay in the home. I like the time when i quarrel with my sister, the time a whole family have the dinner and the time we chat with each other.

Beside of the member of the family, I can play the piano. Inti here dont have a piano. This let me feel very upset. Even though I can lend the music room. Inside there only a electronic piano. The touch and the feeling is totally different with the piano. So, when I back home, I will play the piano. The only thing i not satisfied is it's quality.

Last Saturday, there also a performance in Foon Yew Kulai. It was organised by the string club of Foon Yew Kulai. This also the first time they have a concert. I felt that they have done their best about it. They have a well perform that night. However, maybe of the nervous, some song are not perform well. I hope they will be better in the next year.

Blog for week 7th

Now already week 8th. However I forget to blog for the week 7th. I hope that now isnt too late for me to finish the assignment.

One of the reasons I didnt renew the blog last week is I felt very tired. I have no mood to do any assignments or revision. This wasnt a good news for me, especially I have 3 tests from last thursday to this monday.

Even until now, I also dont know what the reasons cause me to have this feeling. When i felt tired, I usually sleep earlier. However, it didnt work on me. When I wake up at the next day, I still feel very tired.

It had spoiled my test, especially my ECO151 mid-term test. I felt that I will get the worst results since I study at INTI. The test including 3 parts, 5 miscellaneous questions, 2 structure questions and 2 long essays. I think that i have spoiled all three parts of it. Especially for the long essay, I choose the question that I dont have confidence to do it. What have i done? If I want to reach my target, I should try all my best and cant even make a mistake in the final exam.

Fortunely, I have became better at this week. I hope that it wont happen again.

English pass a need in SPM?

I think this is a serious question. From the past, we only be informed that a compulsory pass in Malay to get the certificate. However, since the english people found that english is more and more important and be popularly used, this idea was be given out in the Monday(8/6) by our Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

Except Malay, English is the most popular used language. English also used as international language. It is important for those who willing to have further study, trip or business at overseas. However, still have some people dont consider it is important. They think that they dont need to study because they wont use it. With such thinking, they didnt study hard in English. Even in some rural area, English is not a compulsory subject in SPM.

Muhyiddin wish to ask for the willing and hope for the feedback of the people. From the survey, we can found that most of the people support the compulsary pass in English. Only little people reject the idea. Now, the problem is when will he make the decisions and announcement? I hope that it wont be too long for people to wait. Also, I think that it wont force the candidates to pass the English this year. Maybe it will start from 2010 or 2011.

No Mood

I have a bad week since from last week. I dont have mood to do anything. When I look at the time schedule, I found that I have 5 tests within 2 weeks. All my subject will held test. On the other hand, I have lots of assignment. Everyday, i shout to myself that I need to do revision or finish assignment. However, I failed. I do nothing but sleep everyday.

I dont know why I falled into such a bad situation. I feel that there are something inside my mind keep disturbing me. It lets me cant concentrate on the study or assignment. Or else, I easily feel asleep. I sleep a average 7 hours during night. However, when I heard the ringtone in the morning, I wished to have another more hour to sleep. I feel very tired so that i need to take a rest in the afternoon. In addition, I feel that I am unhappy. The only way I can do was chat with people to make me more cheerful.

Yesterday, I also cant let myself joyful when I playing piano. I also shock by it because the last time I have this feeling was long time ago. There are little things that can lead me out of stress, piano is one of it. However, this time it failed. I now wondering what had happened on me.

The test will be coming soon. If i still dont like to study, I cant imagine wat results I will get. God bless me.

USM

Few days before, I read a shock news from the newspaper. I felt ashamed on it. Why will this simple careless mistake will occur? Do they know their mistake had let so many people break the heart? What the reactions will they take? Until here, I think many people can simply guess what news is that. Yes, it is about the system error by the University of Science Malaysia.

This is the first time they use the internet to reply the application of the uni. It seems that more efficient, more convient and more high-class. However, maybe they didnt make a check, or the software problem, they send the offering letters to every applicant's mail box. At the next day, they realise the mistakes. Then, they some rejection letter to those who had been rejected.

How if you are the one who received different letters? I will felt shock and unbelievable. The next motion is go to check the calendar, confirm today not the april fool day. It seeems like a drop from the heaven to the hell. Some maybe told the whole world about the succession. However, now what news should they tell to others? About the rejection, or just wait whether have the third letter.

Many parents brought their children to the university campus to confirm the news. However, they only receive apologize from the announcement. Those other they want, how the uni settle the problems or the acuse of uni, cant get from the uni. If this happened in other countries,I sure that the person incharge will be scolded or fired. However, this is Malaysia, the person who wrong will only be offered a warning letter, or wont.

University of Science Malaysia is the third best university in our country, according to the world ranking. In addition, it was declared the Apex(Accelerated Programme for Excellence) University by the Ministry of Higher Education of Malaysia on 3 Sept 2008. This let me suspected about the quality of the university in our country. Should this mistake can be avoided, I think the answer is possibly can. However, why will it occur? Is this the improvement of the university?

Government said that those have been rejected by the USM will be selected by other 19 universities in Malaysia. However, I dont think it is good. First, there still have 60 thousand of students apply for the universities, and there only left 40 thousand place. The students rejected by USM is about 4 thousand, that means reduce the available acception until 36thousand. Is it fair for other students? Secondly, can they make sure that the university and the course choosen for them is their favour?

Every year, there are differnt problems between the university and the scholarship. However, this year, the things happen in USM is so dramastically. 2020, still left only 11 years.

My Life Today

Today, I wake up at 6.30 in the morning. I also dont know why I wake up so early in the morning. My class started from 8 am today. It means that I still have time to sleep back. However, I fail. I just sit on the bed until the time reached. Before I went out, I didnt realise that this was the start of my bad morning.

My first class is calculus I. As usually, Mr. Nathan start his class with some story. Today, he told us that everyone have the chance to score A in this subject, grade that some JPA students cant get. I dont know what the feeling of those JPA students heard about this, I think not very happy.

During the bread, I went to the sidewalk cafe to buy a sandwich as breakfast. This is the first time I bought sandwich from there, it really nice. Now I understand why so many people like to buy sandwich from there, even it is quite expensive.

After the breakfast, I start feeling not well. During the lessons, I felt very asleep. Just like I havent had a enough slept. Moreover, I have headache. I cant think what had taught by lecturer.

After that, I have another lesson, Microeconomics. I really feel apologise to the lecturer, cause I keep fallen sleep when he was teaching. I have tried my best to awake. However, I still not feeling well. He also gives us some surprise, a suddenly quiz. Fortunely, I awake by the shock and the syllabus I have done the revisions before. Therefore, I think it isnt too bad for my results.

After the four hours lesson, i back to my room. The first things I did was having a nice sleep. Now,I feeling much more better. I still wondering that am i sick?

Another boring weekend

Before today, I though yesterday's life is enough already. However, I wrong again. Today is worst than yesterday. I can't even surf internet from morning until evening. I cant imagine it will happen before I some to Inti. What a good connection.

I think that our school should have some improvement at this area. Nowadays, the internet is important for the people. We always need to online to get the latest news, or find some articles and information for the study. Beside that, some may usually online to chat with friends or family who are not beside them. So, the internet is really important in our life.

However, when the speed is slow, people will face many problems.Even we only use the internet to search informations, it also bring some inconvenient and inefficient. Moreover, how if people sometimes need to download things or view video from YouTube? If really suffer waiting infront the computer.

If we look at other countries, especially the western countries, they seldom face this problems. At there, students were encouraged to have a notebook. They can online to get latest informations, wherever anywhere and anytime. This has become part of their life. So, they focus at this area and always try to improve it, let all the students closely to the social.

I hope that the connection at here can be improved and make it stable.

Boring~~~

The life I stay in Inti actually not boring. In the morning, there are lessons. My lessons begin from 8am every weekday except Monday. In the afternoon, I usually sleep in home or study, if have exam soon. In the evening, especially after 6pm, my schedule is full. Then why I said boring?

How if there are only yourself stay in a room? Yes, that is my situation. My roommate have back home in Thursday evening and he will back in Monday morning. It means that i will stay alone in the room for about half week.

Many of my friend back home this week. That means that i hardly to find somebody accompany me. When I stay in room, I feel so alone. The only things I can do is open the music. Let me feel that the room not so quiet, at least have some music accompany me. I really hate a place that too quiet, that let me feel so uncomfortable.

Other than music, i usually surf the internet. I sometimes will find articles from internet. I crazy, right? haha. I am interested with biology and Relativity. Sometimes i will go to find the latest technology news. Or else, I will go to find some latest news. I think that i need to read much, because my microeconomic's lecturer want us to use many real life example during the test.

I still have to sleep alone 2 nights, so alone.
