Best english lesson ever.

Just a foreword, this post is just for light entertainment. It is not meant as an insult or assault or whatsoever that acts as a potential heart-breaker.

We were having our English on Monday and our dearest English teacher, whose-name-shall-not-be-mentioned, kindly asked us to take out an English material that he gave us before the holidays.

'Ok everyone, have you done that exercise in that paper?'

*total silence*

'Has anybody tried it??'

*pregnant silence*

'Ok, can you do it now??'

Thus, teacher started discussing with the whole class. But from the way he explained and talked its like he was trying to force us to vomit out the answer but at the same time, he did not try to teach us how to find the answer.

Let me show you the question.

Yup that is the question that made our heads (almost) explode.

I read through the text again and again and again and I and my friends were scratching our heads, wondering how to get those pie chart done.

And then, I found a glitch in the text.

I got so frustrated and annoyed and I told the teacher: 'Sir! How can we even come up with 2 pie charts if they didn't even give us a detailed answer? How are we supposed to know the original value before it decreases 4%?? This question is totally preposterous!!!'

To my surprise, he said:

'That's the thing that I've wanted to hear. The person that answered this question was not giving a complete answer. That is why when I give you a question similar to this on our next lesson, i don't want you to come up with this kind of answers.'

O______________________________O

*Jaw dropped*

For 55 minutes we were cracking our heads, looking for the answer and in the end, THERE WAS NO ANSWER.

Ahh~ See how much I love English?? Yup I definitely love it.

The before and after phenomena

Its holidays!!!! Finally after 2 months of waiting, we get to go back to our home sweet home.

Not to mention that I AM already lying on the couch with the familiar smell of home.

What more to say about UPS? (Mid Semester Examination)

ITS OVER!!!
**fireworks**

Before exam, we slogged hard.
During exam, we slogged double as hard.
After exam, we relaxed triple as hard!!!

So you really really wanna know what happened??

This is what happened during UPS:



After that? This is what happened:

A tornado landed in my room!!!

Kindly excuse the messiness cause I was busy packing my bag. (That includes everyone)

The saddest thing that happened was, everyone was so excited that they can finally go back on Friday after 12 noon. Of course I was very happy cause I left before anyone else. I left on Friday morning itself. The only difference was, I was not going home, I was on my way to Perlis. Where KAKOM 2009 was held.

Since this is not a KAKOM post, I shall not mention too much about it here. Just that the good news is, KMM actually did quite well compared to last year. Our college was Number 5. Of all the 10 colleges. Thanks to the 2 gold medal that came from Men's singles tennis, and also from the singing competition.

The long journey from south all the way to the north of Malaysia was no fun. It was plain tiring and exhausting.

I almost cried when the bus passed by the huge signboard that says 'IPOH'. Almost wanted to jump out from the bus and run all the way home. ='(

Pathetic I know, luckily I didn't commit suicide back then cause who knows, I might not even have the chance to lay down on my oh-so-comfy sofa right now.

That's all for the UPS post I think. More juicy UPS results awaits in less then a week's time.

Total holiday mood-spoiler whenever I think of that. =/

Stop and stare

For 2 years I've been studying Biology, never have I really seen a real sample of cells through the microscope.

And for the first time in 2 years, my dream came true!!! (yeah right)

Biology practical classes have never been this fun before. Even though its only a prepared slide, looking at a real cell with your own eyes can be pretty exciting.

Our Biology practical lesson is not as boring as you think it is. Or come to think of it, maybe its just my class. =) We had lots of interactions during lessons. What kind of interactions you might ask. See, we walk, we talk, and we yell.

We walk- to check out other group's observations.

We talk- to ask our partners 'Hey, its drawn like this right???'

We yell- to express ourselves when we first observed the cell under the microscope. 'Wah!!! So beautiful!!!'

Red Blood Cells

Skeletal Muscles


Various plant cells whose-name-I-have-forgotten. =P I think its the paranchyma and collenchyma

The prettiest among them- The nerve!

'Serves you right!' to those Physics student that are reading this and looking at the pictures in awe. HAHAHA!!! XD There are more to come I'm telling ya'!

The only thing that is not-so-fun about observing cells is that you need to stare, stare, and stare at the microscope until your translated diagram is complete.

By the end of the lesson, I've been staring, NO! GLARING at the microscope so hard for the past 2 hours until my eyeballs felt like they're coming out of their sockets. XD

Thank goodness that the next Biology Practical is about answering questions.

Explore KMM

After being a part of KMM (Kolej Matrikulasi Melaka) for 2 weeks, I finally had the initiative to explore the college's surroundings.

Since 2 of my roommates went back to their home sweet home and left me and my other roommate here, we decided to have dinner together with our neighbors, living just across our room. =)

We went all the way to Cafeteria B, which is like 3 km away from our hostel block cause we had the whole Friday evening time to kill. After having a scrumptious dinner, we decided to take an evening walk around the campus--actually, half of the campus. =))

Let the pictures do the talking then!



Candid shot! My neighbors =)



Random pose nearby a little cliff XD

I seriously have no idea why puffs of smoke are coming out from the houses. o.O Me and my friends thought that it was on fire or something but I think its normal cause its not the only house that smokes.

There were actually lambs there! Me and my friends were saying :'Jom naik kambing balik hostel!!!' XDD

I live in Block A1, so you don't get the nice nice panorama views like the other blocks. We were so shocked to see that the view of the kampung at the back of the college is actually so amazing!!!

Just my luck for staying at the not-so-feng shui block. =_________=

Actually truth to say, its actually my first time enjoying the sunset in the college! o.O
