Activated!

Well, it's been about two years, I haven't written anything in this blog. What makes me start writing this entry? Hurm.... well,basically now it's the mid-sem break for the school. You can say that I'm already bored to death, doing nothing at home and had enough with fb-ing which make the perfect reasons for me to start blogging again.

These wonderful two years have taught me well, obviously to be a REAL teacher as well as to be a patient unmarried 26-years OLD woman. Haha... sounds dramatic,isn't it. The year of 2011 does have affected me a bit, although now it's just March. The year started terribly bad with a huge fight or should I say, quarrel. Then, to add to my misery, the school changed my teaching classes from Form 4 and 5 TO Form 3 and 5. All are exam classes for me to teach. Felt the heaviest burden are put on my shoulders.

However, Allah is the AlMighty. All of the students whom I'm teaching are an angel. It is like the kids are helping me,indirectly to lighten my burden. They did their works, they came to see me,if they have doubt, they even requested for paid extra class. I'm blessed. Well, the year does not start as bad as I thought it would be. Hopefully, good news will arrive. InsyaAllah. ^_^

The Average

envy the good English they speak

envy the great shape they have

envy the stunning features they own

envy the brilliant brain they have

envy the huge fortune they inherit

envy the opportunities offered to them

envy the endless attention they received

but

I’m just the average

normal

ordinary

unlucky

where’s no one recognise nor remember

where’s nobody can differentiate

even my name is common,

nothing about me is unique to be fossilised

everything is just average

being blessed and glad

That is who I am.

Two Things in Life

TWO THINGS IN LIFE

two things in life

which to have

which to choose

which to lose

education determines the job

the job determines the huge fortune

fortune determines happiness

while

marriage determines commitment as well as responsible

it brings pure love and happiness

sometimes it also brings sadness and depression; regret

each choice determines your journey in life

better education doesn’t mean you have better marriage

good marriage doesn’t mean you have great job

if you choose education, marriage will be ages away, perhaps never

if you choose marriage, education will be remains

life is what you decide

life is what you prepared to face

any road that you choose to take,

make sure that

finally you're the winner

Working World!~~

Elow...lama sudah kami tak online...rindu bangat sih! hehe....
Finally..I am a real TEACHER.... hehe...felt like I was dreaming at first..but it is a reality...13 July 2009 I report duty at SMK Datuk Syed Ahmad, Kuala Nerang.....it was 3.30 pm if im not mistaken...even the PKHEM nak balik dah...hehe tapi sempat jugak kami tangkap dia and accept my repot duty.hehhe ganas tue di hari pertama...

Baru days working...I was not given any class or schedule yet....so I just lepak around the school la..make friends....miggle around with senior teachers.. Then on Wed and Thurs I was given to relief some classes. That was when I had the chance to get to know the students.
Well, basically the students in my school are coming rural areas but not all are poor or come form unfortunate families. Some are rich and in middle class people. But the surrounding and the environment is still rural la for me..hehe... Dont worry the school has Wi-fi and internet,computer labs, LCD eveything...The school also has a group of excellent English teachers. Im very proud of that though.

I was so welcomed by the members of the school. Everybody is friendly, warm, welcoming, helpful..in short i have no problem at all. The administration is also cool. I need to have god relationshp with the clerks coz they are the one who handle my salary....that is extremely IMPORTANT! ehhee....top priorty!..hehe.... The principal is a serious man but ok kot rasanya... apapon dont mess with him!!

The school is actually situated 35 km from Alor Star (my hometown)....so it takes about 45minutes of driving to reach there. So i need to wake up at 5am everyday to arrive there 7.30am sharp. The road is not too smooth, lots of lorries,trailers, vehicles, very busy road....quite difficult sometimes to drive fast. However I really hope I can cope with it. I planned to berulang not staying there..

Above all,...I want to annouce that I am officially own a car. At last 'my car'..i have a car.. Proton Wira aeroback -BGJ 4963, 1.5- auto. Bolehla untuk kereta pertama...permulaan la katakan.... eventhough 2nd hand car...but at least i have a car to send me to school everyday. nanti lama sket, tukarla yg canggeh sket...ehehe bagi stable dulu...drive pon bg cekap sket,bleh driff semua..boleh la beli Accord. hehehe..beranganla..

Anyway, I pray that All my cohort 2 frens have a great school, colleagues and students for their first posting....InsyaAllah..semuanya selamat, berjalan lancar,berjaya....and most of all, all of us will be the BESTES English teacher of all times...

Opss! I forget to mention that my school is a cluster school. Just get the award this year... A cluster school for Daerah Padang Terap. dalam daerah ni, kira sekolah nie la yg paling elite sekali.chewah. Kami pon baru dapat tau masa lapor diri. tu pon pengetua bg bgtau. terkezut jugak, kami tak kenal pon sekolah syed ahmad nie...n burden will be more towards the teachers in order to maintain the results since it is a cluster school. ..Alahai....ingat sekolah kampung je..skali skolah cluster..matila aku kena keja kuat....

Wutever it is...the journey must go on.... bak kata the principal " Jadilah seorang guru ,jangan bekerja saja sebagai guru".... Lu pikirla seniri...hehehe....

Welcome to Kedah! hehe

Huhu....
Welcome to Kedah kepada my frenz yang dari Perak and Penang......

Selamat bertugas di Negeri Kedah which is also known as "The Rice Bowl of Malaysia".. yeke rice bowl....?? skrg mcm kekurangan padi jer..siap kena import beras Siam n Taiwan lagik.... Apapon kurangkan makanan berkarbohidrat tinggi which is harmful to your health if you take more than the amount that u should have.....

Rumours that I heard (which exactly brought up by my mom..hehe) that those new fresh teachers will be posted to Langkawi and Baling. The JPN Kedah wants us to serve the rural areas first and they will bring the senior teachers from the rurals to town areas.... just like a cycle.... Well guys be prepared.... hurry up search on google about Kedah's map or Langkawi Island.... For those who never been to Langkawi.... seriously HOTT! and full of tourists......so guys especially men can easily 'cuci mata' la...hehe....well take that as a challenge for us. Those who is a little bit lucky will get Baling....(I dont know why I said lucky) but maybe because Baling is definitely not an island..so its secure, no need to wait for a boat to come to the mainland....cooler hehe....and rural....I think you guys better ask Che We coz she lives near Baling....n Baling town is her only playground...hehe... but remember Baling is quite a huge area....there are still rural areas but not TOO rural as ulu-ulu...NOT TO WORRY! hehe

Apart from that, if u guys get posted to Langkawi...it probably will be much more fun.... just like Q said to me " If we are all being posted to Langkawi, we can open a TESL CHALET for our frens!" hehe.....huge dreams rite...but just look at the positive side.....

Anyway..I just wanna inform u guys WHO wanna come to Kedah and DONT have place to stay...Plz contact me,because my aunt has opened a budget motel in Jln Pegawai Alor Star.. the price range is between RM60 -RM90 per room..so if u are interested plz give me a call.Thanks guys! C ya soon!

Tak Mungkin Kerna Sayang...

Buat kengkawan ku cikgu cikgi TESL....rasanya lagu ni ditujukan utk semua.....

sebenarnya, Fariha Yahya yang mencadangkan lagu ni..katanya "lagu ni melambangkan friendship kita semua"...marilah kita menghayati lagu ni " Alyah -Tidak Mungkin Kerana Sayang"

Setiba di persimpangan,
Langkah kita tak lagi sehaluan
Bermula di saat itu
Tidak senada irama dan lagu

Begitu hidup ini
Tiada yang abadi
Yang patah tumbuh
Yang hilang berganti

Kau telah jauh, jauh dariku
Tiada ruang di hati buatmu
Namun harusku akui
Ada ketika di minda kau menjelma kembali

Sekali segala ada
Ada rindu yang datang tiba2
Tak mungkin kerana sayang
Cuma terganggu oleh perasaan

Begitu hidup ini
Tiada yang abadi
Yang patah tumbuh
Yang hilang berganti
