PMR Results 2008

2

The PMR results was announced today, and my students did amazingly despite the adversity that faces them. 2 of them got 8As another 2 got 7As. Consider the fact that they study at a school that is 45km into the jungle from Gua Musang. Also that they had little if not none at all tuition outside of school.
I’m both happy and proud. Taught them English from Form 1 till Form 3, and the seed have blossomed into trees, now its time to pass them on to other teachers while I myself will now go back and teach a new batch of Form 1s. Smile
The school overall result was also quite good. Went up from No 7(last) in the district to No. 2 in the district. Good enough for me I say, u can’t expect miracles to happen do u Razz Our last minute effort was actually to do floating/streaming classes for English and did some very intensive exercises designed for their level. All the other English teacher pitched in even those that didn’t teach Form 3s at first. One teacher even agreed to teach more periods so that she can teach the form 3 students.
Overall pass for English went up from 30% to 52% this year, and I can definitely see some smiling faces. I hope that we can keep it up next year.

New Year, new expectation, new resolutions?
Mine? Simple, be a better person Smile
The day was spent mostly at home, holiday isn’t it Razz Though did go out with the wife to the wet market to get some groceries. Initially I planned to go to KL, to do some shopping, alas no tickets were to be found, no bus no train even Frown I guess a lot of ppl are going back to KL after the long hol. So better I just resort to internet shopping hehe Smile
So what did you do today?

A Year Younger A Day Older

Alhamdulillah, it’s my birthday again Smile Thank you for all the wishes, either thru FB, YM, SMS and definitely IRL wishes Smile
This year has definitely been something, from being a husband to a dad in mere months Smile I accept the responsibility gladly, if not gracefully Razz Also had to juggle between work and home, having to teach PMR (English) and SPM (Biology) in the same year have been a challenge. Made more friends, met new people, and also was given more responsibility both at work and at home.
Tiring? Yes. Worth it? Definitely! Grin Hopes that in this year to come I have more to show for my age Wink I do have something cooking, but it will not realize itself this year, next year… perhaps Grin
Thanks to everyone who have made this year of my life most enjoyable.

Eidul Adha 1429

0

As per the years before, when we talk about Eidul Adha, then it means that we are going to eat a lot of meat. Take for instance this year, from the first day I have been eating meat and meat and more meat. From Sate’s to Roti Jala with Chicken & Beef Kuzi. Today I went to my wife’s aunt we had some more meat! She made some Meccan Rice cuisine, and as per the norm for arabic food it contained a lot of meat! She lived there with her husband for a number of year so understandably it was good. Smile
What does eating all these meat mean to me. It means that my blood pressure will surely rise, in fact I can feel the beginning of a headache. It also mean that I will not be able to eat meat for a month or two just to get my blood pressure back under control. The price you have to pay for eating delicious foods. What is done is done Smile
Alya also had her share of the fun, she behaved very well when we went visiting family and friends. Even got her self some Duit Raya too. If only they would give it to her papa as well Grin Hope you guys had as much fun during your eid celebration as I did (Alya did!).
