My Class, No Hope
I got back my accounts paper. 70, not bad for a first try… But i must maintain this mark or else teacher will make me jalan itik.
I chatted with my chemistry teacher 2 days ago, when the “centipede incident” occurs. She punished all those who failed chemistry with her “stand under the sun” punishment, that makes only 3 was in the class, that’s me, the smart girl, and my teacher.
Well, since the girl is not a talker, so i sat alone, reading what’s teacher going to teach. Just all of a sudden, my teacher is asking about my brother. She taught him too, since she is the only chemistry teacher in our school and my bro and me are in the same school.
Teacher: So how’s your bro? He is suppose to be graduate now rite?
Me: He failed. Only 1 paper to clear, his maths.
Teacher: Owh… bad…. so how?
Me: Well, im not really sure, but as i know, he must take the paper again. If he passed, he will need to wait till next year before he can wear the “hat”.
Teacher: What course is he taking again?
Me: QS
Teacher: Hmmm…… with that, its easy to get job.
Me: Yea..
Teacher: That reminds me of the olden days. My husband fails his elektif (not sure what’s in english) subject. He needs to repeat and waited a year before he can graduated.
She goes on and on about careers and studies. Talk about the good and the bad, racism and stuff. You know, chinese like us is very hard to get into local uni while malay like herself gets into local uni easily. I can’t believe she also didnt like that too. She’s a malay, she should be happy, rite? We chat chat and chat, and she suddenly talked about how hopeless is my class:
“You know what, 4s3 have no hope. I was hoping a big change when you come to this class (I was from 4s1), but it’s still the same. Only 2 of you (me and the smart girl) have the potential of a science student. The rest? They have potential, only that they are lazy. Well, i know you did try to help them, but you can’t help them much if they dont help themself.”
“You can’t help them much if they don’t help themself”. Nice saying. I will always keep that in my mind.

Yikes!! Centipede!!
My friend frighten me with a fake centipede. Twice!! Twice!! Arrggh…. I will revenge!!!
It was my moral lesson. I was sitting with him. Well, i was concentrating to teacher, she’s giving a guide on how to write a report on the charity work that we have done. That’s when my friend put a fake centipede, which look quite real into my desk. I didnt realise it.
He touched me and say, “Hey, look at your desk.” So i look into my desk and i was like “WAH!!”. Its not that loud, but the whole class can hear, that time my class wasn’t that noisy. Then my moral teacher look at me, “Something wrong?” And i answer, “Ohh nothing, i was excited just now”. Lol~ i can’t believe i answer that.
Ok, that’s first. After a while, when teacher finished talking, she told us to do out own work. That’s when he, again fool me with the centipede. He call me, “Chan!!” then he threw the centipede to me, and i was like “WAH!!”, again. That’s when “@#$*@#$%#$%#$!!!!!” came out from my mouth. Lucky teacher didnt hear me.

Why Mahathir Insist Math & Science in English
This is what i got from the bulletin board of my Friendster.
Why Mahathir insist on using English for math and science. Because the world uses the english language as the main language for information technology. How dangerous would it be if we’re still going to use Bahasa, especially in school. See example below.
*hardware = barangkeras
*software = baranglembut
*joystick = batang gembira
*plug and play = cucuk dan main
*port = lubang
*server = pelayan
*client = pelangganTry translate this:
ENGLISH :
That server gives a plug and play service to the client using either hardware or software joystick. The joystick goes into the port of the client.”BAHASA :
Pelayan itu memberi pelanggannya layanan cucuk dan main dengan menggunakan batang gembira jenis keras atau lembut.Batang gembira itu dimasukkan ke dalam lubang pelanggan.”Now You Know………
Funny eeh? Hehehehe

Another Ordinary Day
Another ordinary day. Today my History class starts, new topic, on Islam. I was so sleepy during the lesson. I dont know why… History never attracts my attention. It is such a boring subject. I still credit my History though… hehehe..
I got my AddMath paper back today. 54, another big drop. Last sem was 66!! Anyway, addmath have the same fate like chemistry, only 2 pass, me and the smart girl, again… She always beat me!! Why is she so smart? Maybe she study hard, unlike me, do web-developing during the exams… hahahaha…
As for my moral lesson, i got “brushed” by the teacher for not handing in the report on the charity work and some other stuff. Well, she gave another week time for us (im not the only who got “brushed“) to finish all those things. Looks like a busy weekend for me. This weekend is my b-day and I have to do my work? *Sigh…~~* Oh, how i wish i did all this thing on my holiday, which i was suppose to.
After my moral lesson, recess!!! I took some picture of myself with my friend’s digital camera. I really need it because my moral teacher wants 4 pieces of passport size picture. She says its for some kerja kursus stuff… Ahh, what the heck..
Then after that, I have my Physics lesson. Teacher discuss the exam paper with us. There’s a question talking about car safey, and one of my friends write something like this:
“Salah satu ciri keselamatan yang penting dalam kereta ialah tali pinggang. Apabila memakai tali pinggang, kita dapat mengurangkan inersia yang akan membuatkan kita terhumban ke hadapan apabila kereta kita dilanggar”
And here’s the english translation:
“One important safety feature in a car is the belt. When we wear belt, we can reduce the inertia that will make us thrown to the front when there’s an accident”
Hehehe, belt helps to reduce inertia? Actually my friend meant tali pinggang keledar, not tali pinggang. My teacher didnt give mark for that statement.
