Just so you guys know

If you're the kind of person who wants to read a cool log, well, don't read this one.
The main purpose of me making this blog was for the competition in 2013. So yeah, if you read this blog, I think you'll snooze off. It's mainly about what I learned in class when I was in year six. Two years ago.

Clear the Dust!

Good Morning everyone!

Firstly, before saying anything, I would like to say SORRY for not updating anything on this blog. It seems so boring now. I have an excuse for this, though.

With a happy smile, I'm glad to tell you I got straight A's in UPSR last year. Yeah, it's been a year since the examination, and I've just told you my results. Such a bad blogger, aren't I?

More great news, I got an offer to one of the best boarding schools in Malaysia! (At least, I think it is). Woohooo! *clap clap*
Uh, yeah. So, how was boarding school?

To be honest, I HATED it at first. But after a long time, I finally realize-Hey, it's not so bad at all. And when it's the end of the year, I find myself loving my school. Yup, from hate to love. Say 'yes' to boarding school! YES!

Since I'm at boarding school, learning, attending Prep classes, doing this, doing that..
It's kinda obvious why I don't blog that much these days.
If only I could bring my laptop to school. That, would be awesome.

Good Luck to all UPSR candidates next year!
Do the best. Effort is the key to success. Always be positive!

One more thing-
I've just realized that I'm in high school, so, it doesn't really make sense to me to write in this blog anymore.   ~_~

But that doesn't mean I will leave this blog to die. No!
I'll probably say a few things each year, but I'm not promising you!

If you feel free and if you're getting sick of this boring and lame blog, check out my other blog --> My Story

I'm here!

I'm here, in the E-learning building, for the prize-giving ceremony for the 'Educational Blogging' Competition. 

Feeling nervous and scared as surrounded by many adults..

Maths Tips

• Always read maths problems completely before making any calculations.  If you "look" too quickly at a problem, you may misunderstand what really needs to be done to complete the problem. 

• Whenever possible, draw a diagram.  Even though you may be able to visualize the situation, a hand drawn diagram will allow you to label the picture and to view the situation from different perspectives.  

• If you know that your answer to a question is incorrect, and you somehow cannot find your mistake, start over on a clean piece of paper. Sometimes when you try to correct a problem, you continually overlook the mistake.  Starting over on a clean piece of paper will let you focus on the question, not on trying to find the error. 

• If you simply cannot determine the answer to a question, make a guess.  Think about the problem and the information you know to be true.  Make a guess that will be logical based upon the conditions of the problem.

•   Make sure that your answer "makes sense" (logic).  For example, if a question asks you to find the number of feet in a drawing and your answer comes out to be a negative number, know that this answer is incorrect.  (We cannot measure negative feet.)  

And the most important thing of all, remain confident! Focus on what you do know, not what you do not know.

I hope these tips become handy when you're in an exam! 
Till then,

Good News!

My beloved mother got a call from UPSI (Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris) saying that I won 3rd place in the 'Educational Blogging' competition!
All of my hard work has paid off. Thanks to this blog, I won third place. I never expected this.

Until now, it is still hard for me to believe!

I would like to thank my mother who introduced me to the competition .. and also for her support! Thank you!

Creating wonderful memories..

Yes, UPSR has ended. So, what do we do at school? Here's the answer: HAVE FUN. We have this 'After UPSR Program' which is fun for me. We get splitted up into 8 groups and do the weekly tasks we are given. Last week, we had to compete in making breakfast and also 'Bicara Berirama'. Although some of my teammates messed up by not remembering their lines, it was totally worth practicing everyday. 

Today, we received a new task. We had to make a 'Pentomin'. At first, my whole team was very confused-What is a Pentomin? We discovered that it was acting, and there was a narrator who reads the story/play. The actors can't speak. Only the narrator can. I have put all of my efforts into making a creative, but also funny 'pentomin'.

Oh, look at the time! Well, it won't wait for me for sure! Bye!
