Mad with Add Math!!!

I was so mad, furious, frustrated today, and the entire feeling blends so well till I almost down with a heart break. The feeling was so intense that I have to pour it out in an open space. I was so damned furious with my students, and it’s so because of Additional Mathematics!

picture taken before my outburst

Additional Mathematics or in a short form known as an Add Math always send shivers to most of the Malaysian students. By statistics based on my school, Add Math is ranked amongst the bottom list for the previous exam result, follows by Physic, Biology and Chemistry. Some of the students even have AddMathphobia, a nick named by one of my fellow teachers.

one of my student trying out the question given on the whiteboard

As an engineering student and an ex engineer, I have found that Math and Calculus is not that hard. It seems hard to solve the problem, but in fact, when one’s look closer and read the question thoroughly, actually it is a straight to the point, one by one solving steps.

Looking back to the AddMathphobia, one’s created fears due to the difficulties in Add Math problem solving.The real question here, are we really read the question given and make use of whatever hints@formula provided for the question? Then, how do we know which formula should be use?These questions only can be answered by doing tons and tons examples and Addmath exercises.

Well, no pain no gain…one’s must strive harder for success. We have to remember; to be on top of the ladder of success begins with a step at the bottom step of the ladder.

Bethroned in Kingdom of Boredom

When after 5pm are no longer exciting, when weekend is no longer be awaited, it tells something is wrong...somewhere...somehow..

Im in the kingdom of boredom!!!!

I have no appetite to crave on food, no interest to go out and shop, no intention to do beautification of my garden..

i rather be thrown rather than bethroned in this kingdom of boredom..

Exam PTD

I was bored to death waiting for my confinement due to H1N1 quarantine procedure to be over end of this week...(and i was sick n tired telling makcik sebelah umah yang aku sik kenak lah!adohh..)

And...

I saw letters in my post box..i picked it up and saw;

1. Telephone bill from TmNet. (wey, i picked the internet combo basis and not supposed to have a phone bill.what and why you are charging me for?internet services again?)
2. A sealed letter from SPA (dup..dap..dup..dap..what's inside?i'm curious;p)

At last, a letter instructed me to go for exam..But wait, for the post of Pegawai Tadbir Diplomatik M41?Huh?Errr?

I'm not a type of people who always barged at the door without asking (tok perumpamaan x prepare terus g exam ler).So, as per date today, it has been two days and two nights im poking my nose to find out what it takes to be a PTD...(refers to my previous blog)

My findings?Wahhhhhhh!!!!!!!

i've been to the forums, blogs wrote by PTDs....and my conclusion, not only it is very hard to pass the table exam, PAC,DPA...but the candidates also have to serve and put the country first before themselves...(huhahuha...erk?!)

Okay, here's a tip or twos for those really want to become PTD and pass the exam;

• Read newspaper from page 1 to the end.
• Read Malaysia Kita book.
• Read all the Dasar-Dasar Kerajaan, the latest achievement received by Malaysia, who won recently,who got nominated and awarded something...e.g Hadiah Nobel ka..
• Flip back your math book.
• Read dictionary or journal about current issues in Malaysia-for essay preparation.
• Last but not least, find out more about this exam from internet.Don't depend on this as im also like you guy, sitting for the first time!

Well, good luck guys and happy reading!:)

p/s : Isham, ko nang terer la sebab 1st time exam, interbiu terus dapat..tapi ko nang terer lamak la..sik mampu ku mauk jadi macam kau..bila gik mauk cia aku tok?bday dh dekat dh..

What does it takes to be.....

A superstar?An engineer?A teacher?A prime minister?

Remember when we were in primary school, our teacher always asked us what we are going to be when we're grow up?I remember telling my teacher that i want to be a scientist...eventhough i dont know and i even dont have any single ideas what scientist do...But i know it is a cool job...inventing and making cool things such as smoke screen (i always want to do this because my father was a smoker and i cant stand his smoke!).

But now, im far away of being a scientist. The closest job that i ever have to fit the scientist job was to become an engineer. But, nah...not so much of inventing things...what was i supposed to do was checking the drawing, checking the tender...site checking and supervision and a bit payment claim.

Then, i ever worked as a lecturer for diploma student. The job was great..and i like the environment. However i have to come back to my hometown to work as an engineer again..

Actually i was a bit regretful of my homecoming...When i became part of the company, all the qualified engineers resigned. Then, i have to report directly to the General Manager which the background is not an engineering.....This is the beginning of all the headaches. Undecisive, decision making based on hearsay and what he wants us to do..and the most stupid thing, he always think that engineer can do others cant do.(macam penyapu jak kmk org dipolah urang tua ya) and my new engineering friends keep on coming and they will resigned after servicing less than 1 year...2 years working without direction, finally, i quited.

Then, now, i am back at teaching profession. And i always wonder, what does it takes to be....somebody...

H1N1

This week my school have to be closed due to H1N1 virus which have spreaded and infected some of my students. What is H1N1 actually?is it a flu followed by high fever?Then i google thru the net n i found this ;

"Influenza A virus strains are categorized according to two proteins found on the surface of the virus: hemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N). All influenza A viruses contain hemagglutinin and neuraminidase, but the structures of these proteins differ from strain to strain, due to rapid genetic mutation in the viral genome.

Influenza A virus strains are assigned an H number and an N number based on which forms of these two proteins the strain contains. There are 16 H and 9 N subtypes known in birds, but only H 1, 2 and 3, and N 1 and 2 are commonly found in humans"

Got it?Understand it?

Well, i'm not quit sure about this either but i can conclude that the flu is always in our system....but if we are infected by this virus, it will mutated in our system n becomes another flu virus...n if our body immune is not able to protect our body system to this virus, then it may kills the home human.

Love me?Love me not...

A friend just came to my house and asked me the "Question" again....i have been thinking in and out the box for any possibility if i say yes or not to that "Question". Im afraid if i say yes, i will regret my answer for the rest of my life..anyway, some how it already affected my life for the past few months thinking bout it...vice versa, if i'd say no, would i let the great opportunity to slip out of hands?
