Buck Up!!!!

I felt better after Puan Foziah explained and clarified all about the assignments that we need to complete for this course. At the beginning, things were quite messed up when there were additional task that we need to do for example the e-book. Some of my friends were asking me whether the e-book is an assignment or not. Then, came a few more asking me what to do, how to do and so on. All this question been bugging me and I myself want to know what is exactly should be done. So, with courage, I went and approached Puan and asked her. Glad that by approaching her, most of the things, that have been creating enquiries to these people, have been cleared an clarified to them as well as I. Now that I've know what to do, i need to buck up..Time is important and time waits for no one..so why should i wait anymore..I should get started with my draft for assignment 2. Need to collect things bit by bit. I never want to do things last minute because I will get panic as my job is not done when it's almost due. This is one of my characteristics that i'm very clear of myself and I'm glad that i know that.


I've been in a boarding school and i've been trained to follow time tightly. This has taught me to manage my time very well in doing my things so that's why, whatever i do i must do it in an organized way if not i will be lost. Thus, i always need to start collecting materials or plan for the assignment set so that i will not be left behind or get lost..

Flashback.....



Eventually, my pair and I have done our task.At first, we planned to do a video related to love. Since that many of our friends are doing that, so we decided to change. It's good that both of us agreed easily in discussion. We brainstormed on ideas. This is good for students like us because we need to always develop our thinking skill through brainstorming and discussing as we learn or gain better understanding in whatever topic being discussed. We did about what happiness means to kids...somehow, doing this task did give us a thought that being a kid is so wonderful.It also provides us with information about what kids like to do to make them happy. As we are going to be teacher of primary education, we indeed need to understand kids very well. Learners characteristics are important to be considered when planning a lesson plan or selecting resources to be used for the lesson. They seems to look carefree and not like we are right now in which there are lots of things to be thought about or decide on..Somehow, this task made me ponder back when I was a kid..
I really miss that moment!

Problem....

it is the semester break..
i'm back at my hometown..but luckily my group have divided the task accordingly and all of us played our part..
At first i was having trouble converting the videos..i tried so many programs but i could not complete any conversion..it was a mess for me..and i almost gave up..if it was not for my group members i would have break down...i managed to convert and got the tutorial done...sent to my group members who are in kl through email as i was unable to to be there before the due date..
I really hope that this will not happen again..to me of course!
This made me realized the benefit of having internet at home and also email. Just a click and within the next minute your friend will receive what you sent. I am thankful to my mother who has spent so much for buying desktop for home fixed with internet. Wonderful! Problem solved and no worries. Probably that is the reason why the society is encouraging the use of internet at home. Nonetheless, I hope I will not get into such situation anymore because I'm so overly worried and sad. Lesson learnt, no last minute work!!!

audio editing


hmmm.....
what i've known of is to cut some part of and convert audio..but i never try any editing on the audio yet..should give myself a chance...It would be nice if i can edit the songs of my own choice. But still i need to acquire the skill first. Song is so close to my life. I listen to song everyday. I would say that music is almost part of my life. Sometimes it is the cure to my boredom. What is more interesting is that songs can be used to teach. This is because most of the songs have underlining meaning. They convey message that sometimes evoke feelings in you. How interesting yea! So, music is fun. I hope i can do something good for this task.
