A GREAT START FOR SMAS BLOGGERS

Dear students,

thank you very much for those participating in this blog. What a great start for better writing! keep on blogging either by posting or giving comments. Over time, realising it or not, your writing skills will be far far better than that you have at present! Are you afraid of doing mistakes especially in grammar or usage of right words? Don't worry! we are not English native speakers whose mother tongue is English language. Therefore, to stumble upon mistakes here and there is not something that should be taken seriously as we are always in a learning process.

The most important thing is not to have made no mistakes at all, what matters most is the learning process that takes place along the way. The more you make mistakes , the more your chance to absorb more learning inputs. You will definitely stop learning the moment you feel you are already competent enough. Such a thought will rob you your very desire and curiosity to dive deeper into the fascinating and mesmerising realms of knowledge.

Keep on asking and quizzing yourself while your ever young magical brain works best!We are now living in the world where brain laced with sound knowledge besides having indomitable spirit and faith rules the game. Join the game with full of knowledge, skills and confidence or simply become laggards who do nothing and earn nothing.

WHAT DO WE THINK OF THE SONG 'YESTERDAY'

Assalamualaikum w.b.t

Did you ever heard about the Yesterday's Song which was sung by 'The Beatles' in 1970 and now, we'll tell you all what do we think of the song.

Syamil's

Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe
In yesterday

Suddenly
I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday
Came suddenly

Why she
Had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said
Something wrong now I long
For yesterday

Did you know this song? I think you all know. The title of the song is 'Yesterday'. This song was written by 'The Beatles' band. The Beatles band who is a legendary band wrote this song in 1970. Oh I think you all know more about The Beatles band than me.

At my school, there are two teachers who are interested with this song. I do not know why they are so interested with this song. Sir Yusri, who is one of them, also played this song when EPL was in progress. I've tried to ask him why he is so interested with this song but he answered, 'no comment'. huhuhu... It's so weird.


Sir SY,s Most Favourite Song
- Saiful

Ha2, Before I start to write this post, I want to remind you that this isn't about a gossip or anything about 'him'. It's also not related with anyone who live or dead.

Ok, let's start. Have you ever heard about 'Yesterday'. It's a song that is sung by 'The Beatles' in early 1970s and it's a song that is admired by many. Even until now, it is sung by many people all over the world.

For your information, this song also have some fans in our school. One of them is Sir Y. When we talk about this, I remember about a story that happened in the top ten's room in a peaceful evening.

Do you know what had happened there? We were talking about this song and do you know what we know from Miss F in that day? She said that it's Sir Y's favourite song and then, we laughed together because we know that anyone who loves the song might have experienced frustration in their lives. Do you know what thing was in our mind at that time? We think that Sir Y's proposal was rejected by his ex-gf, so he felt so frustrated and started to sing the song. Ha3.

Ok, that's all for now. Hope you're fine.

Ps: According to Sir Joe's son, his father also loves this song.

1A'S MASTERPIECES

THE DAY I DIE
by Zilmajdi
It was late to come to my friends' birthday party. I can't imagine how it look if I don't come to her birthday party. I wear my jacket and took the key. I started my car engine. I drove very fast.
Suddenly, my car was loose control. The road was very slippery. After that, BANG!! My head feels hurt. My nose was bleeding. I hear an ambulance siren come near me.
I look there was someone in my car. I feel I was alone in the car while an excident. I was confuse. Everyone don't saw me. I realise that I was die. I'm not here anymore.

DISSAPOINTED
by Umar Mokhtar
One morning, a student from SMK Puterajaya walking around his school. Suddenly, he saw a woman standing at field and looking around. He went to the woman. He asked the woman, "Hello, what is your name?" and the woman start talking "My name is Sarah.". "How old are you?". "14 years old", said Sarah. "What is your name?", asked Sarah. "My name is Syakir". "What class you are?" asked Syakir. "I'm in the 4A class." "Oh, it's the same just like me, maybe I didn't notice you in the class."
Starting from that day, their relationship became more good, and their hearts fell something. It was love.
One day, in the school, Syakir get an offer to go to Sarawak. Sarah didn't allow him, but Syakir still want to go there.
After the incident their relationship broke down. When Syakir go to Sarawak, he know that the camp is useless and actually he had been lied by someone.
The moral in this story is:
"Even when a friend does something you do not like, he continues to be your friend.
Any action commited in anger is an action doomed to failure."

JUST DO IT


Dear students,

The logo or emblem for Nike company looks simple, just a right sign. Imagine, billions of profits the company could rake out of that simple sign.They don't need experts to draw the simple right sign. It also carries a simple motto that helps countless of athletes through to win titles or trophies in almost every tournament they take part. Take any games or sports..and the brand will be synonymous. Tennis greats like Federer and Nadal, both are sponsored by Nike, Golf number one player in the world also wears shirts with Nike logos. Great football teams like Manchester and Barca are also no exception in helping Nike to be a super power in branding war.

Some say, Jews have been key players behind the success stories of the brand since its inception. Profits from the brand is said to be channelled to Israel armies fighting against Palestines.So,buying their goods is equal to slaughtering lives of innocent Palestinians. How true the fact or not is not a subject of discussion now as you may ask Ust Rushdan or for details Ust Rosman and Ust Abd Rahman Mat or even Ust Alias. What i want to highlight now is the philosophy behind the brand. The spirit of JUST DO IT. This does not mean you blindly follow without following what is in store between your ears! The motto means, however difficult or tough your situation is now, just do it and go ahead.

The moment you decide to reach your goal, never look back until you truly arrive at your destination. They say, it is so easy to cry and die, but to fight and fight when hope is out of sight. So, keep on fighting and just do it!

Assalamualaikum wbt and a very good morning to the chairperson, honourable guests, teachers and all my dear friends. Today I would like to deliver a speech and title swimming.
Often in our every day's live we dream of a healthy body, free from disease. So, swimming is the best activity that we can do to get healthy body. I am sure most of you have heard of this famous name, Michael Phelps. He is the fastest swimmer in the world during Olympic 2008 last year. Do you have any idea of how he can keep his body healthy? He keeps his body healthy with swimming.
My dear friends,
With swimming, we can add our energy, and we can exercise our body, including our hand, leg and breath. We could maintain it when we swim. If you do not know how to swim, there's many ways to you if you want to learn it. You may go to fitness centre or swimming centre. There, they will teach you how to swim.
My dear friends,
Eventually, I would like to urge each and everyone here to swim because to be a healthy person, you must exercise. One of the exercise is by swimming. With that, I end my speech. Thank you.

A SEMINAR FOR ENGLISH PMR

Dear students,

There will be a seminar for English PMR to be held on Sunday, 28th Jun 2009 (8:30 am - 12:30pm). The speaker hails from SMA Khairiah. She has vast experience in marking PMR examination papers. Do grab this opportunity! ask her any questions on how to get good grades in English. Moses once said 'ask and you will be answered! knock and the door shall be opened! if you just remain passive and quiet throughout the seminar. what a waste to invite her!

SHOT FOR THE MOON, EVEN IF YOU MISS YOU WILL STILL LAND AMONG THE STARS!


People often underestimate the power of their minds. These people, they are afraid to dream high thinking that the best is to aim for something that every ordinary people does. This type of thinking is common among us, the Malays. We tend to stick to our famous proverb 'Ukur baju di badan sendiri'. When other people aim to conquer Mars, we are still stucked here in Pak Kancil aiming for only a pass in English.

I know this does not apply to all, but it worries me that some of you have stopped dreaming of something high such as getting an A's in English. I tell you this is not impossible because English is not as difficult as you think it is. I know this because as a child I also started learning English from scratch. My parents, just like all of you did not speak English at home and the same goes to my childhood friends. All of them spoke Terengganu dialect just like all of you. But still I could develop such a liking to English which indeed helped me in the mastery of the language. And I am still learning the language until today.

While studying abroad about one and a half years ago, I've came across many foreign students from countries like China, Korea, Russia, Turkey etc. who came to study at my university with zero English. For them, English was no more a second language, but an alien one. Some of them couldn't even utter a grammatically correct English sentence during the first few weeks of their arrival in Australia. But within a few months they managed to get through the difficulties with the language through an English course specially designated for students like them. They need to master English because it was English that they had to use to learn Economics, Biology, Philosophy, Accounting and so on. Finally they've made it despite the fact that it was the first time ever in their life to learn English.

Dear students,
Just compare yourself with these foreign students. How many years have you learned English? As opposed to you, these foreign students only learned English for few months but still they could master the language and with pride they speak English as if they were born to be English speakers. You might be tempted to say that they had high IQs which made them able to be proficient in the language but the real truth is, it is not IQ but it is the determination. You need to have such a high will-power to achieve whatever you want. It is your mind that decides where you will go, not your IQ, your wealth, your background or anything else.

So, I agree with Einstein that imagination is more important than knowledge.
Dream high for every great inventions and achievements enjoyed by many people worldwide today began with an imagination.

Stop aiming for a pass, it is time to have an A mind and then work hard for it and the rest, leave it to God.

All the best

Miss F

p/s: and oh! i took the above pic in Langkawi 2 weeks ago..what a lovely place

100 DAYS TO GO

Dear students,

Realising or not, the most auspicious date is fastly approaching! it waits no one..it keeps approaching faster and faster. Those mentally unprepared they call it a looming danger. Prepared minds can't wait to test their mettle after months of preparation. We, teachers, hope you all my dear students can unleash your best shot. If not as fast as federer's or Nadal's, at least yours can match Alif's, whose thunderous shot never fail to scare any goal keepers, but more often than not, they smiled the moment the found Alif's thunderous shots went wide over the goal post. what a waste! haha...but Alif still deserves a praise for his efforts from both friends and foes.

here, i would like to share wise words quoted from a noted motivator, Zig Ziglar. He said ' You were born to win, but to be a winner, you must plan to win, prepare to win and expect to win' . so, have we planned enough to win the so called battle come October?

Ask yourself that question from now on, only then you will realise that you are almost running out of time.

WRITE ANYWAY

Dear students,

Are you reading now? yes! definitely! why? because someone asked you to read, right? why did the someone ask you to read? because he or she wants you to be knowledgeable. why knowledgeable? because through knowledge you will be free. why free? you will be free to make choices.why so many knowledgeable men being cowed by their inferior? because they quit reading. why they quit reading? because they are no longer knowledgeable.so..to be knowledgeable you have to keep on reading.is that enough? no! so..you have to think as well. Reading and thinking run side by side. Einstein once said. imagination is more powerful than knowledge!

Then, if everyone reads..who will write?there must be someone who WRITES.the someone must be you my dear students..but we have no ideas! WRITE ANYWAY! why? they say to be a writer you have to write, write and write!

so, happy blogging

sir
