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?
