Kem Membaca 1 Malaysia

So last week my school held something called Kem Membaca 1 Malaysia, or in English, Reading Camp 1 Malaysia.  Organized by the school library team, it was designed to encourage the students to read more.

During the duration of the event, we had word-search and a quiz consisting of randomize questions, even though it was from last year... But, the most interesting event happened on the third day, where our English teacher, Pn Monica, told us to get into groups of two and talk about our story books to other classes.

When the time came, the entire class scattered and went to their respective classes. I was paired up with Chung Wei and together we went to the Form 1 classes to introduce and talk about our books, titled Wonder and what would Google do ?respectively. Overall, the students responds were quite interesting ,with most asking where to get the books, to the odd questions like why would I read a boring book.

Anyways, it was kinda fun to introduce a book to Form 1 students as the book we're reading could help them one way or another. Besides, their English language can be improved by reading or listening from the right sources !

I would like to thank Pn Monica for the opportunity, since this activity is actually kind of fun to be executed.

Cheers,
Chua

Optimism / Pessimism Bias

Welcome back, friends. Exam weeks was long and harsh, but now it's over. Hooray! As for the blog posts, they're starting again and this time, oh boy, free topic for days (at least I hope so). So fasten your seat belts as we explore more random topics for no apparent reason. Today's Topic : Optimism/Pessimism Bias "Great, another bias. What's next? K-Drama bias? Anime bias? Jeez, at least talk about something positive." Well, positive things aren't always fun to write. So... cliche and boring. I rather dig into negative stuff just to find out what causes them and how we can solve them. Doesn't  that sound positive to you? Either way, let's jump into today's topic. I'm going to cover both Optimism bias and Pessimism bias in the same blog post, because they usually are found together in a statement. But before that, let's ask ourselves this common question that is used to test optimism and pessimism. Is the cup half full or h...

Story starting with a sentence given by Pn Monica

L. ------ Ping.. My mobile phone lit up with a message from Pn. Monica.... It was a late Friday night, and after a long week people are surely tired and wanted to take a break. The message started a lot of distraught, since people wanted to take a break on a Saturday. "Please go to the library tomorrow. I have an important task for you." Sure enough, the request sparked a lot of questions in the group chat, varying from asking why do we have to go to school on a Saturday, or how important this task is, to mindless puns and jokes about said task. Following morning, we gathered in the library, chattering about what a hassle it is to get out of bed on a warm, cozy, Saturday morning. Just when the crowd began to get heated on discussing what they're going to do, Pn Monica emerges from her office, and carrying a thick book inscribed in an language that none of us has seen before. She place the thick book down on the table with a loud thump. "That's one h...

What I Learned About How My Effort Will Contribute To My Exam Marks

Well. after getting my terrible exam results, I decided to break down what went wrong in my preparations for the exams. To get down to the root of the problem, it's studying and the time spent doing it. I either do it too much, or too less. I need to organize my time even better than before, so I don't constantly burn the midnight oil, or sit around doing nothing. The worst result I got was Additional Maths. The only way I could get better in this was to do more practice. Time to start hitting more books then ! I need to put in more effort on my studies to get at least decent results for my mid-term, which is usually going to be even harder. Let's hope I actually stick to the plan this time. Cheers, Chua.
