English everyone?

Assalamualaikumwarahmatullahiwabarakatuh

Well, first of all I want to say 'tata' to my S3.
Yes, I lost it. actually, I left it in the taxi. Screw you dishonest taxi driver. Urgh!
Now I'm in a major dilemma on wanting to buy a new gadget or bear using a torchlight Nokia phone.

*Sigh*

Well, actually, the purpose of writing this entry is to share my experience sitting for the MUET Speaking Exam the other day on 30 October 2013, 11a.m.

Well, I woke up early that morning after two hours of sleeping *last minute preparation, had to sleep late
I drove to UM and arrived at about 9.30 *well, I don't have a watch since my phone went missing
and.... I bumped onto Puan Masdida my Chemistry lecturer and asked me on my chemistry paper the other day. Relevant answer, "Owh, boleh jawab, but tak cukup masa lah. hehe" and she actually wished me luck, well I don't care whether she remember me or not, a wish from her is enough to prove that she really cares about her students.

Well, as expected, I was the first to come for the 11am session and few dudes on the 7.30 session are still waiting for their turn in the waiting room. The KBTs. Well, I heard that the topic given to them had something to do with the road, accident and stuff. Who give a damn what they get.

After the two longest hours of waiting in my life, finally we were called to enter the waiting room. I was placed at KBT 14, my tutorial class. Hikhok, well... I'm kinda superstitious boy that I won't do well on my test because I hate that room and I often get lower marks on my tutorial whenever I have a class held in that room. I was the last person to enter.

Assalamualaikum...

I thought I was in a theme park because there was water spill everywhere on the floor
'Oh god please not the ceiling again' Actually it was the ceiling. The leakage that lead to the great bath.
There were four groups of four and all of them are boys. First, I didn't realize that our code actually according to our group and since I was the last to enter so my group knows I should be one of them.
"Hoi kau, sini, kau group ni. and kau candidate A"
Bad words flew on my head. Lots and lots of them.
'Why candidate A? URGHHH!!!

Well, let me tell you what are the 'advantages' that candidate A could ever have.

-they have to do the introduction more that any other candidate and waste lots of time
  'well dude, 2 minutes is not enough to give away and elaborate your points, bear that in your mind'
-well, it's never a good thing to be the first one to talk. It is nerve wrecking okay
-you don't have the time to write your points because you are only given 2 minutes to prepare your points      and when the time finished, you have to start talking while the others can still write their points when you are  presenting your ideas. That is just not fair. Not fair!

After a few minutes of waiting, finally came in this Chinese-Muslim woman wearing all red from head to toe even her spectacles. She's wearing a hijab too, don't worry guys. She explained to us on how this thing works *like we never knew* and brought along this package. The question paper, Tightly sealed in a plastic bag. Heart pumped fast. Chooyyy it felt like I was taking my SPM with this sealed question paper and stuff.

My group members. Well, there was four of us.
One of them from the Q group *dak2 hebat English, aku group R je as candidate C*
The other one is Hilman's friend as candidate D *yeah, because I saw him on Hilman's twitter*
The last one... well, I don't even know his name and the other two but I've seen him before...somewhere?
And there was me. Sweating like a pig.

The heat from the window, the smell of the puddles of water from the ceiling, the smell of sweat.
God! I need to go to the gents.
Right after I came back from the toilet, it was finally our turn.

Everybody took their seats, ID cards out, Smile....

Then this examiner explained to us again the procedures

We were give two tasks: Task A and Task B

Task A;

the candidates are given a topic to discuss on and four points need to be elaborated are also given to them
two minutes are given to each of them to jot down their points before the first candidate starts presenting
each candidate will have to present their points in 2 minutes of talking

Task B;

a group discussion based on the topic given and you can agree on each other's  points or the other way around
10 minutes are given for them to discuss
at the end of the discussion there should be a conclusion and which point is the best choice

Well, my topic was

"If there is a case of emergency, which of these is the first to be called?

-Family
-Hotline number
-Friends
-Neighbor "

hikhok my point was Family...
yadda yadda yadda

"time's up"

well, I didn't expect her to say that because I usually talk too fast during my rehearsal with my tutor and I always get this comment "Slow down, u're talking too fast".
For the first time I didn't have enough time to elaborate. Well, at least I had pointed my views on that topic and elaborate enough. More than enough actually.

Yadda yadda yadda

Candidate B-C-D

The group discussion went well, actually we had a blast. We laughed all the way through and the examiner too can't stop bursting when we pointed our views. It was mostly ridiculous but the end of the day is how well you speak in English is all that matters. We agreed on  choosing the neighbour as the best person to be called when there is a case of emergency.
I don't blame you if you are quite weird with our conclusion but you have to hear what we have to say on choosing the neighbour as the person to be called. *That's why we burst into laughter*

Well, what I learnt from this experience I had is that I should never hesitate or feel ashamed on talking in English and it is not that bad at all speaking in English to your friends, teacher, lecturers or even your family members. Stop being judgemental and start figure out on how to improve your pronunciation and don't you ever be shy. Let them laugh because at least you try.

Happy talking!

Welcome... To PASUM

Assalamualaikumwarahmatullahiwabarakatuh....

*fuhh fuh... lapp habuk*

Mak ai lamo bebeno eden tak post kat sini... well, sibuk sangat maybe, sbb tu lah x sempat nak post apa2 kot.

Ehem2... seperti diketahui umum, I'm officially a PASUM student!! And finally I've made it to college!!
*tipu klau x rindu sekolah doh*

Well, most of you might be wondering what happened to my dreams on pursuing my studies abroad. Let's just say, its not the time yet. Masa dapat tau yang MARA punya scholarship tu aku dpt dlm negara, tanyalah Maisarah betapa teruknya aku menangis sampai terbabas maghrib n Isya' aku mlm tu sbb tau je terus tido. Well, I have to thank to those who gave me advises to stay strong n convinced me how universities here in Malaysia is quite good too.Bangun esoknya, terus aku ckp...

'Mak I'm going to UM'

And here I am, in KK12 (Kolej Kediaman Raja Dr Nazrin Shah) kicking my ass out to get 4.00. Baru aku tau yg sebenarnya PASUM punya syllabus is quite different from other Centre of Foundation punya syllabus and our timetables is quite packed! Perghh...

*Tarik nafas.... Hembuss....*

Ok , mcm ni, kitorg punya kelas akan start dari pagi iaitu jam 8.00 pagi sampailah jam 5.00 ptg. kami rehat selama sejam dri pukul 1.00 sampai pukul 2.00 ptg for solat n lunch. Our learning session including :

-Lectures (an hour for each of the subject)
-Tutorials (an hour for each subject except for MUET Writing and Reading class where we have to glue                       ourselves to the chair for two hours *migrain*)
-Lab (three hours per subject)

It looks easy but let me tell you, it's way harder than SPM and way exhausting than boarding school routine.

Kat dalam lecture macam biasalah, duduk ramai2 (300++ student) kat Auditorium tu mcm duduk kat kutub utara sejuknya n sgt selesa utk dibuai mimpi. Kalau tak faham redha sajalah (ayat Encik Ismail) insyaAllah dpt lah tu nnti cos we are not allowed to raise our hands since it will interupt the lectures.

And that is why we have tutorial classes (yay!) so we can ask anything we didn't understand during the lectures. Function kelas ni jugak adalah untuk menghantar dan berbincang semua kertas2 soalan tutorial yang diberikan seminggu sebelum. Part tu okay lagi, yang penatnya, setiap minggu they will hold a quiz for each of the subjects!! ( say what??!!). Memang x mati pun lah aku kan and each of the quiz will carry ur mark for the final exam, whether you are ikhlas or not, make sure pahamkan right away for every topic that you've learn.

Next, we proceed to the most intense class of all - The Laboratory. Well, I have to admit that I kinda like the lab cos its fully functional and the equipment are so updated sampai kadang2 tu takut nak guna. haha. Before you enter the lab, make sure that you have ur lab coat and wear it. Kalau tak, kirim salam je lah.
The Biology lab is the best lab of all bcos u don't have to prepare a report ( actually, before masuk lab,kene siapkan report base on the manual given to you since you have to finish your experiment and report within three hours and pass it up to ur Demonstrator at the end of the class). Kat dalam lab, you are all on your own. Nobody will help you while you are handling all the apparatus (kalau lab chemy, satu pecah, kene bayar) and aku dah pernah pecahkan small test tube and kene bayar RM 3.90!! ( boleh beli mcm2 kat cafe tau tak). While you are conducting your experiment, your demonstrator will observe you and give marks based on ur skills.(marks ni jugak masuk dlm markah keseluruhan final nnti) Satu yang aku suka kat kelas ni ialah, klau kau punya data tu teruk mana or salah or lagi menyimpang, you are not allowed to change it. Let it be. Aku rasa bnde ni cool sbb bnde ni mengajar kita utk jadi jujur n be a better scientist in the future cos you can't lie in ur report just to have a good result. Bear that in your mind!

*minum kejap*

Masa habis je MHS (Minggu Haluan Siswa) , senarai kumpulan untuk sepanjang kau melepap kat PASUM pun keluar. (Grouping ni dibuat based on ur english test where they will sort you according to ur grade on that test) and......... aku masuk Group R3. (dalam Hayat 1, Group dia ada N,P,Q,R,S and T. and each of the group is divided into three small groups that consist of 20-25 members). sape yang dak2 speaking tu mmg duduk group N lah kan. Untuk dak2 noobies mcm aku ni, duk group R lah. However, I am so glad bcos my group members semua masuk air n gila2! Mula2 ade 22 org but then dua org keluar. So yang tinggal ni semua ting tong n sangat pandai. (Seriuos talk, dorg mmg pandai gila !!).

Mula2 awkward lah jugak n bila dah start ada group whatsapp and wechat mmg semua masuk air memekak. Ok lah, meh aku knalkan sorg2 dakk2 group aku.

Group R3

Perempuan: Athiff, Syakirah, Amalina, Amira, Aliya, Adilah, Aasiyah, Khairin, and Nina
Lelaki: Adli, Haniff, Kamarul, Arief, Hafiq, Ambok, Luqman, Asyraff, Nazif and Syafa.

Dlam ramai2 ni paling aku rapat is these minah JB dua org ni, si Khai (muka sumpah sebijik Liyana Jssmay) and Nina sbb dorg sgt awesome n paham aku (serta lawak2 hambar aku yg sangat tak ade batas perkataan). Kitorg jugak suka membahan sorg mamat dlm group ni. (Nama cool, kitorg apa lagi, seronoklah hahahaha)

Sekarang ni susah senang semua kitorg kene tanggung sama2. Nak menangis ke nak mengeluh ke, nak marah ke. Apa2lah, semua sama2. Satu je aku geram sbb dlam beribu2 budak kat PASUM ni, group kitorg je tak ada gambar kelas. Tak apa korg, nnti aku bawak Camera kita buat gambar kelas sendiri ok? Tu janji aku. Nanti kita edit puas2 pastu publish kat FB PASUM kasi terbeliak skit dorg tu. hahaa

OK lah semua, nak kene kemas rumah (maklumlah dah nak raya). Sehingga kita bertemu lagi di masa akan dtg.

Wassalam.

P/s: Aku redha dengan ketentuan Allah.

CINCIN OH CINCIN ! (Part 2)

Assalamualaikumwarahmatullahiwabarakatuh...

Baiklah...seperti yang anda maklum...cerita cincin dan jari saya masih belum lagi berakhir kerana...

Inilah kesinambungannya.......

Starring...

Pidot                : which is me.. the moron who had a ring stuck on his finger
Teacher Faz    :The coolest teacher ever !! Kami dan Teacher Mimah mmg x suka diam
Syazen             : Kawan kelas sebelah yang sama2 nak tuang diseludup keluar asrama
Pak Cik Savior: Berbangsa Kelantan dan pemilik kedai emas Adamas...
Pekerja Wanita: Tiga orang, dua berbangsa India dan seorang Melayu
*lagi dua org dak perempuan aku tak kenal sape. Katanya nak teman Kak Syazen pergi buat baju dorm...

ehem...

Setting:Parking site just behind Kalang Buruk a.k.a. Kalang Wira
Time    : Selepas solat Jumaat


Me: Wahh... teacher pergi mana?? penat tunggu tau.. igt dh gelap masa depan x de jari dah...
TF: teacher tunggu kat ataslah.. mne jari kau yg tersekat tu?

*muka sedih jari biru

TF:HAHAHAHAHA... kau memang tak de kerje kan?? Bosan sangat ke kelas BM tu sampai      
      kau sarung cincin ni?
Me: Teacher janganlah gelak, saya dah tak nampak dah saya masuk dewan SPM tau..
TF: kau dah guna sabun dah? 
Me:Dah.
TF:Minyak?
Me: dah. habis kene bebel ngan kak Mis tu.. urghh..
TF: Ni nak teacher bawak mana ni? hospital?
Me: Mak ai.. mcm teruk je... Bomba lah..
TF: HAHAHAHAHA Bomba buat apa, teacher bawak pergi Klinik je lah...
Me:OK. Suka hati teacher lah... asal cincin ni boleh tanggal
TF:Tunggu Syazen lah.. dia nak buat baju dorm skali...
Me: OK, *woi cepatlah doh, ni kes hidup mati tau tak??

Lalu, kelihatanlah Abang Akmal Afif membawa kereta BMW nya ke dalam perkarangan sekolah sambil menekan nekan hon.

TF: Ni sape plak main hon2 ni?
Me: Abang Akmal Afif lah teacher, yg ketua BUDI tahun lepas tu...
TF:Hoi, aku pun naik Myvi, asal die naik BMW plak?

*korang nmpk tak knp aku sayang teacher Faz? hahahahah....

Kami memulakan perjalanan ke arah OTK (Ong Tai Kim) iaitu syurga warga Integomb untuk mencari barangan perkakas dorm...
Kami berhenti di Klinik Idzham

TF: Pergi masuk dalam tanya nurse tu, mcm mne nak potong jari
Me: teacher!
TF:Haha teacher gurau lah... pergi masuk tanya mcm mne nak tanggalkan cincin tu, buat  
      muka tebal je,tu lah sape suruh pkai cincin. Teacher tunggu luar nak cari parking.

Breathe in, breathe out...
Brace yourself for the worst nightmare 
I stepped into the clinic and approached the counter...

ehem...

Me    :Assalamualaikum... 
nurse:Waalaikumussalam.. ye dik, sakit apa? pernah datang sini tak sebelum ni? I.C?
           *sabar cik, satu2 boleh?
Me    :Owh, nak tanya, klau nak tanggalkan cincin ni, boleh tak? *muka aku waktu tuh x yah ckp 
           ah, mmg blushing gila dan soalan aku tanya tu memang tak boleh lagi pelik.Sampai mak
           cik yang datang duduk kat belakang tu pandang pelik je.Sorry Integomb malukan anda
           kerana waktu tu saya masih bersampin dan bersongkok.
Nurse: Jap ye dik, 

Nurse tu masuk bilik doctor dan keluar dalam masa beberapa purnama kemudian *ini bukan hiperbola kerana sekiranya anda berada dalam situasi ini, walau sesaat pun mampu mengubah masa hadapan anda.

Nurse: Tak boleh lah dik, Kenapa tak guna sabun?
Me     : Dah, tapi x boleh jugak. So, sekarang ni mcm mana?
Nurse:Adik cuba pergi kedai emas, klau x boleh jugak, memang kene potonglah jari tu. 
            *disambut dengan hilai tawa rakan sekerja yang 'perlahan'

*seriously, aku benci ayat potong jari tu... tau x tak lawak!  TAK LAWAK!

Me:OK, terima kasih.

GAGAL

Dengan setiap langkah ku derap menuju keluar klinik, air mataku mula menitis,tidakku lihat lagi senyuman ibu bapaku tatkala mengambil keputusan SPM kerana anaknya ini tidak mengambil peperiksaan tersebut disebabkan malu ketiadaan jari.Namun, tangkas ku mengelapnya takut Teacher Faz terlihat air mataku itu. Aku mula menghampiri kereta.

Me         :Teacher, tak bolehlah, die suruh pergi kedai emas. Mana nak cari kedai emas?
Teacher:Owh , dah dekat dah, jom masuk Plaza Idaman, kat dalam ada kedai emas,
                lagipun Syazen memang nak cari baju...
Me         :OK.

*nampak tak kenapa aku sayang teacher Faz

Waktu tu, aku nampak Plaza Idaman tu macam satu pasar raya yang sangat maju *walaupun...
sebab tempat tu ada kedai emas. Masuk lah kami berlima ke dalam plaza tu, mencari kedai emas. Masuk je, selang beberapa kedai, tadaa.........

KEDAI EMAS ADAMAS
