:: Transformer 2 - Revenge of the Fallen ::

YEAH!!!! WATCHED TRANSFORMER YESTERDAY!!! IT was SOOOO DAMN GREAT!!! 6.35 pound is really worth it. Ok for those who's wondering how come I have watched it, here is the explanation... UK was the world second premier (just a day later after NZ). All the thumbs-up for Michael Bay for such a great masterpiece. For me this movie have everything.. action, sadness, humor, conflict, love, lust, war, torn you name it!!! The story line was not that fast but still it keep you on your seat, making you want to ask for more and when it end you wouldn't realise that you have spent a full 2 and a half hour of your life marvelling at it. The fued between the Autobots and Decepticons were raised to the next level. New Autobots and Decepticons add lots of flovour to the story. For those who love military stuff you will get a few glimpses of the army thingy (sorry guys I'm not really an expert on military toys). 5 stars I would say for a such great movie; an epic in filem industry. No more rambling and no more things to be said. Because I don't want to be a spoiler. For those who wanted to go to the cinema... I would like to give you an advice, ditch all the other movies out there and buy yourself a ticket to TRANSFORMER 2: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN. It's worth all the money that you spend on it.


p/s: I AM totally going to watch this movie again and again just like I did with the first Transformer movie. So anyone wants to go and watch it. Just give me a ring. Ja~Naa. ay

:: HOI! ::

Hoi ko nyer assigment dah siap belom? Ada plak g update dan tukar2 blog nyer template? hisk dah2 g wat assignment tue!!!!

Dear reader,

What do you think about this?

Patutkah bahasa Inggeris dijadikan mata pelajaran wajib?

KUALA LUMPUR: Sasterawan ulung Inggeris, William Shakespeare pernah berkata: 'to be or not to be, that is the question'.

Petikan pujangga itu bermain di fikiran apabila merujuk kepada sama ada bahasa Inggeris patut dijadikan mata pelajaran wajib untuk lulus peperiksaan Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM).

Timbalan Perdana Menteri yang juga Menteri Pelajaran, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin melontarkan persoalan itu untuk dibincangkan oleh orang ramai dan bagi kerajaan mendapatkan maklum balas.

Katanya beliau dimaklumkan bahawa ramai pelajar di luar bandar akan gagal SPM jika bahasa Inggeris dijadikan mata pelajaran wajib untuk lulus.

"Dengan itu, saya tidak fikir ia (tidak menjadikan mata pelajaran bahasa Inggeris sebagai mata pelajaran wajib untuk lulus) memenuhi tujuan kerana bahasa Inggeris adalah bahasa yang amat penting yang kita gunakan dalam kehidupan seharian kita," katanya semasa merasmikan penubuhan Persatuan Alumni Maktab Kirby yang baru di sini hari ini.

Beliau berkata untuk meningkatkan kualiti kemahiran dan penguasaan bahasa Inggeris di kalangan pelajar, pengajaran mata pelajaran bahasa Inggeris perlu dilakukan oleh guru berkelayakan.

"Mungkin idea yang baik ialah mencontohi konsep Maktab Kirby, (iaitu) menghantar guru belajar bahasa Inggeris di persekitaran yang bertutur dalam bahasa Inggeris," katanya.

Sementara itu, Muhyiddin berkata sumbangan guru lepasan Maktab Kirby adalah amat besar dan mereka telah berkhidmat dengan penuh dedikasi pada tahun 1950-an dan 1960-an iaitu ketika sekolah-sekolah masih daif dan kemudahan pelajaran masih kurang.

"Walaupun negara kita masih mundur dan tahap keselamatan agak membimbangkan pada ketika itu, kehadiran guru-guru Maktab Kirby yang terlatih dalam bilik-bilik darjah telah membawa pembaharuan kepada sistem pelajaran negara.

"Saya juga dimaklumkan bahawa Maktab Kirby yang (melahirkan guru) berbilang bangsa dan agama ini merupakan ''miniature Malaysia'' di mana semangat ''1Malaya'' dan ''Malaya Boleh'' mula disemai," katanya.

Beliau berkata guru lepasan Maktab Kirby juga menjadi kayu ukur kepada kecemerlangan profesion perguruan di negara ini, dan ini terbukti dengan pemilihan empat bekas pelajar Maktab Kirby sebagai Tokoh Guru Kebangsaan dari tahun 1988 hingga 1998 iaitu Harith Laiki, Idris Tain, Lau Hut Yee dan Dr Yahya Ibrahim.

Muhyiddin turut melancarkan buku "Kirby College-A Heritage" hasil tulisan Dr Shaari Isa serta merasmikan Pameran Maktab Kirby anjuran Muzium Pendidikan Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris.

Maktab Kirby merupakan satu eksperimen pendidikan yang unik dengan sebuah negara asing iaitu Malaya (kini Malaysia) dibenarkan membuka sebuah Maktab Latihan Guru di England pada 1951.

Maktab itu beroperasi selama sepuluh tahun iaitu dari 1952 hingga 1962 dan telah berjaya melahirkan lebih 1,500 guru pelatih dan 405 pelatih guru, dengan bantuan pakar daripada Institute of Education, University of Liverpool. - Bernama

:: Last Day as Student IT Support in i-Village in Marjon ::

:: I will be hanging this t-shirt after this ::

Today is the last day I will be working as a Student IT Support (SITS) in the iVillage Marjon. Yup.. my contract now has ended. I will be missing all the time I spend over here. It has been a great experience for me. Handling computer and ICT stuff, learning new things, meeting new people, helping people who are having problem with ICT stuff... It has been a great pleasure for me.

:: My working station ::

Working as SITS is not hard at all. Most of the time I will just sit at my station and wait for people to ask for my help when they need it. Occasionally I have to refill the paper in the printers and that's all. I even have the time to do my assignments while working..which is great heheh That's why I love working over here. A part from the nature of the work itself which is very convenient for me, the prospect of the payment that I receive is also very appealing to me hehehe. For the demand of the work in compare with the payment, I would have to say it is easy money for me.

:: With my supervisor, Alison, she has been great and helpful ::

But I didn't work for the sake of the money [It is only part of it heheheeh]. Well for a foreign students, when you work in UK you will gain valuable experience that you will not trade with anything else. Meeting new people, making new friends and learn how people work in UK is just a part of it.

Herm totally going to miss working over here, but hey.. it is good timing also as I'll be busy focusing on my dissertation after this.
