Final Examination~

3 downs and 3 more to go!

2am-ish and i'm still awake despite that i need to sit for my Introduction to Critical Thinking paper tomorrow at friggin 9am!!!

Need to wake up at 7.30am but i couldn't sleep. Feeling one kind. What if whatever i had studied will not be asked in the paper tomorrow? It's kinda paranoia when i had sat for major exams and disappointed everyone including myself by not preparing well for the examinations.

The subjects, in my point of view are quite easy especially when you are 21 years old and doing diploma in language-related field.

These few days i have been revising together with my coursemate's housemates who happens to be studying Forensic Science. my once-upon-a-time ambition. it really heartbreaking to see people who managed somehow to take upon that course and be a forensic scientist for real in the future meanwhile me, who wished so hard to be one, end up with a future as an English teacher. i knew being teacher is not a bad thing but the regret for not giving my best to achieve my dream will be in me always...

So as a future English teacher, who aspires me? of course, it's Sir Shamsul Fadzali. He's the one who made me realize that English lessons can be fun as long as you know how to conduct them. I miss being his bilingual dictionary and listening to him reading literature components as my bedtime stories

this is just a random entry as i'm quite stressed up but now, i guess that i have to face my notes back.

Anime Review - Another

I'm back and now, it's to review an anime!!!

I'm currently watching an anime entitled "Another" and i'm not gonna crack my already-tired-brain for making my own version of synopsis. So thanks to Wikipedia, here is the anime's synopsis.

Another (アナザー Anazā^?) is a Japanese fictional mystery horror novel by Yukito Ayatsuji, published on October 29, 2009 by Kadokawa Shoten.

In 1972, a very popular honor student named Misaki died partway through the school year in Yomiyama Middle School’s class 3-3. The rest of the students, devastated by the unexpected loss, decided to carry on as if their classmate were still alive, going so far as to keep the desk in place and bringing it to the graduation ceremony. Yet no one could explain why the dead and buried classmate was present on the graduation photo.

In spring 1998, 15-year-old student Kōichi Sakakibara arrives from Tokyo in Yomiyama, to stay with his grandparents while his father works in India. He transfers into Class 3-3 but misses the first few weeks as a pneumothorax keeps him hospitalised. While in the hospital, he receives a visit from his classmates and meets a mysterious girl wearing his school’s uniform called Mei Misaki, who seems to be visiting the morgue.

Once recovered, Kōichi goes to school and tries to adapt. His aunt, a teacher at Yomiyama North, gives him a few pointers but, like his peers, remains evasive when it comes to their behavior towards Mei, who is treated by all as if she did not exist. Kōichi is further confounded by the air of mystery around class 3-3 and the fact that it is isolated from other classes, even practicing P.E. separately.

Things go from bad to worse when a classmate, Yukari Sakuragi, slips while running down the stairs and dies, impaled on the sharp end of her umbrella.This is one of many deaths related to Class 3-3 which have Kōichi and his friends Mei, Naoya Teshigawara, Tomohiko Kazami, and Yūya Mochizuki, trying to unravel the mystery of 1972’s Misaki and the "calamity" that has struck Class 3-3 ever since.

*****

My personal review is this anime ROCKS! It have the normal Japanese horror elements such as mysterious girl, high school and curses. The calamity (I learnt this word through this anime. What ya know anime really taught me new words in English ) is really unique and never fails to intrigues you~ Since it's an ongoing anime, I would love to advise whoever interested to watch this anime to WAIT UNTIL IT FINISH AIRING~ Simply because you may feel it's way tooooooooooooooooo long to wait a week for an episode to be uploaded on the site. MONDAY, Y U SO FAR AWAY??

The Four-Lettered Sin Word

If your presence in my life was just to create extremely good memories and left me with short notice, why do the GOD even let you appear in my life?

I was alone...perfectly alone but h.a.p.p.y

I didn't ask for you but you came...devil in disguise~

You changed my life in an overnight, literally...

from 8 in the morning till 3 or 4 a.m. in the NEXT morning...sending text messages and talk to you on phone...

never knew it was the beginning of the greatest mistake in my life so far~

you made me A.D.D.I.C.T.E.D to you like no one...

your text messages are so cute so i saved it...

your voice is my anti-depressant drug...

finally, i fell in love with a guy that i never met in person... just to be hurt by his later actions!

you were cold towards me and after few months, you were back to normal...

teasing me and make me to feel as though i'm your "the special girl for you"

things changed so fast...

one second, you asked me to call because you wanted to hear my problem...

next thing i know is to receive a message saying "don't call or text me after this.bye"

Maybe i screwed up things...

mistaken your care on me as the four-lettered sin word~

thought i might have made you fall for me~

has been so stubborn in wanting only YOU and no one else~

and for that, i'm facing more dilemmas...

there weren't a single day that has passed without thinking about you...

you meant and still, mean a lot to me...

moving on seems more painful so i have decided to be like this...

Implementation of Five Classic Creative Methods in Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Rendah (KSSR)

Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Rendah (KSSR) is an evolution of the prior syllabus, Kurikulum Bersepadu Sekolah Rendah (KBSR). The syllabus of KBSR has been improved incrementally with new ideas branched out from the previous ideas into KSSR. It was made in that way to improve teaching would be conducted in a proper and structured manner. The example for this is weakness in KLSR leads to KBSR and now to KSSR. This whole evolutionary process involved refining the syllabus for a better one. The synthesis method can be noticed when the new syllabus combined the ideas of studying and having fun together in classroom. Since KSSR is more modular, subjects will be taught based on themes and more activity based and therefore, it will help the students to understand a particular subject better. Revolution in KSSR is when one completely different idea is implemented in order to increase student’s academic performance and at the same time to be a holistic student. For example KSSR is more emphasized on 4M (Membaca, Menulis, Mengira dan Menaakul) instead of 3M (Membaca, Menulis dan Mengira) in KBSR. The menaakul (reflect) is the revolutionary component that will help the student to reflect on himself and understand his capability even better. Reapplication is indeed the word for this curriculum. This brand new improvised syllabus is meant to look at something old as in the teaching methods in Malaysia in a new way. Parents and teachers came to an understanding that with ICT used as a component in classroom, it will help the students to understand better and also assessing a student’s performance just based on the examination will not produce a holistic individual. KSSR also removes the prejudices that exam-oriented education and textbook based learning are the only way to educate student. For example, from times where students have to depend solely on the textbooks and exercises based on the syllabus, students now can experience the new syllabus that is more modular and interactive to be less dependent on textbooks. Finally, the changing direction method was used when KSSR is aimed to solve the problems that are faced by students and not implement a particular solution. Students are facing problems in academic such as slow learning, complicated syllabus and inexperienced teachers. In order to solve this problem, KSSR intended to apply a few solutions such as changing teaching methods from textbooks to modular based education system. This will reduce the problems overall from students playing truancy and ineffective lessons.
