An English Blog

U. Welp, I'm back with another blog post when I should be studying. Oh well, there goes my Biology marks :P Anyways, welcome back to another blog post folks. I have zero ideas why you are reading this, but hey, it's your life, do what you want, I'm not going to stop you. So today, we're going to be talking about something we all do often in our lives. Procrastination. Also, keep in mind I'm no psychology major. Just wanted to share some stuff. Now, have you ever asked yourself why do you procrastinate all the time? Maybe it's your homework, stacking up endlessly as time goes by while you just sit there, telling yourself: "I'm going to start at 1 pm." But, when 1 pm comes around, you go: "Oh, it's already 1.01 pm. I think I should start at 2 pm instead." Then the cycle goes on and you'll do the homework on the last minute.  Why do we procrastinate? As it turns out, like everything else in nature, there's no easy answe...

Look at me, while everyone is studying to get good grades, I'm over here writing blogs that no one will bother to read. Hurray! I need a better hobby... The Dark Forest Theory. It's possible one of the more plausible and interesting theory as to why we don't have alien visitors yet, other than the Zoo Hypothesis. And because I'm bored, let's talk about it. Through this well-made video by Lemmino, titled  The Great Silence ,  it provoked a few thoughts about why our lovely little planet Earth hasn't gotten any known visitors from other worlds yet. Why? Perhaps because, in the eyes of the extra-terrestrials, we are too primitive. To them, we might be just cavemen playing with our self-driving cars, while they stroll around from galaxies to galaxies with Faster-Than-Light travel.  Here's a good analogy. You were walking in the park and you saw a few ants. You could either a) avoid stepping on them or b) step on them. This summarizes any alien if and when ...

I'm bored, so here's another random blogpost. You'll be fine. No matter what you're going through right now, you'll be fine. Now, this blog post might already start to sound weird, but I'm directing it to everyone that's currently stuck between a rock in a hard place, be it in a terrible work situation, a shit ton of homework to cope with, a bad relationship, no relationship, or an assignment or a test due next week. This is the blog post, for you. Yes, yes. It's already sounding like some cliche bullshit. "Always a silver lining between the clouds." And well, you're not entirely wrong, but when our minds are tangled up like the Gordian knot, nothing will ever seem to make sense. Problems in life will start to look like weird mathematics equations, complicated, long, and hard to solve. The more you look at it, the more frustrated, the more angry and desperate you'll get. Trust me, I know the feels too well. It is not my plac...

T. Oh no. Sound the alarms! Someone is trying to rebel against the Malaysian Government!  FBI OPEN UP. Calm down... I'm not trying to rebel or anything. Seriously, I'm not. Welcome back to another blog post folks, it's been a long while. Today, we're going to talk about a very niche topic, one that most of us won't even consider in our daily lives. And well, given what most of us go through on a daily basis, I don't blame you. So, let's get started. Recently, Voyager 1, the farthest probe from Earth currently, piqued my interests. The story of Voyager 1 is a sad one, destined to roam the void endlessly until an alien being intercepts it or it runs out of power. Now, that scenario if an alien being intercepts it is the much more interesting part. On the Voyager Probe, there's a golden disc, which contains a wide array about things about humanity. Our history, our culture, our languages. To think that one day, when humanity eventually ends...

R. Welcome back to another blog post folks. Listening. It's something we do every day, without really acknowledging it or appreciating it. It's something we are so used to that when we lose it, instant regret flushes through our systems. Hence, since Pn Monica gave us this topic this week, let's talk about the importance of listening. Listening is a mean to understand what a person or an object is trying to convey with audio signals. Just like how an animal has mating calls and roars, humans have languages, which, without doubt, makes thing easier to understand. For humans, at least. So, when do we listen? Just like everything else, this depends on the situation of course. Most of the time, in class, you should  be listening to whatever your teachers are teaching, be it English, Malay, Chinese or Physics, Chemistry or Biology. Listening is key when learning as teachers will provide an insight to said topics, allowing a better understanding of the topics, and thus ...

S. Welcome back to another blog post folks, to preface this, this blog is going to be a long one, so um leave now if you don't like that. Also, if anyone is here just to see what topic it is for this week... uhm, don't. Because I chose to do a free topic here and did my literature essay in my literature book. So yeah, let's begin. Homo Sapiens . The only species from the genus Homo still exists. Of course, we have half-Neanderthals living around the world, but for the sake of this blog post, let's just say that we only have Homo Sapiens  around, okay? Once upon a time on Earth, there are several species from the genus Homo , 15, in fact, so far. Yet, as of today, 2019, we only know of one that successfully persisted through several wars and famine, disasters and conflicts, the Homo Sapiens . We built civilization from the ground up, stemming from rivers of the world, then conquering the world itself.  As much as I would like to talk about Homo Sapiens an...
