Mathematicians Have No Sense Of Humor???

Assalamualaikum,

I just came back from a 3 day meeting with some mathematicians. And one of my friends came up with these:-
1. when we write maths questions, we always use the phrase '... such as...' and we tried to find similar phrase in Malay. We came up with '...oleh yang sedemikian...'. The Malay version is so mouthful.
2. I even learn some Malay words with him such as when to use 'adalah' and 'ialah' in the sentence. When use 'ialah' it must follow by nouns, and 'adalah' follows by others like adjectives and so on.
3. Greatest height='tinggi yang terbesar?'
4. If 'tambah=campur' then 'nasi tambah=nasi campur'. But 'nasi tambah' is different from 'tambah nasi', macam 'pisang goreng' and 'goreng pisang'.Now I feel a bit hungry when I mention pisang goreng. hahahaha..........

So read and think about these.
Wassalam.

R&D

Salam,
Today is the new session of R&D. I met with all my students who will be under my supervision, 6 of them(from lower six Budi class). I will try to memorize their names later. Our session today was only on getting to know each other since I don't teach any of them.
Good luck all.
And, I am still waiting for the full report of their research from my upper six students since the dead line is this week.

3D

Haven't been to the movies for a while.
Nadia persuaded me to go with her today. So 5 of us went too Sunway Pyramid since she wanted to see Shrek in 3D.

The funny thing is I got 'motion sick' with the animation. I had to take some panadols while watching. All the time I had to put my head on the head rest. But the movie was nice. A good lesson is learnt from that. You don't appreciate what you have until you loose it. I think it is worth it to pay RM20 for the movie.

Then after the movies, we went out and waited for Nadia from rest room. Naqib accidentally dropped his slipper 2 flights down. Luckily the slipper didn't get lost. Mayah went down to get it and off we went for lunch.

Our menu for today is Nasi Ayam at Chicken Rice Shop.

Then we headed home. I didn't feel like shopping around since My head was still spinning.

Hello Again (April-May 2010)

I am still alive. Hahaha. Have been busy farming in FB than to write anything here.

All my kids are home now. At least for this weekend.

Just got home after picked up Mayah from SESERI.

I will have everybody home again next week for two weeks since school holidays will be here on the 5th of June.
4th Mac, Nazrin's birthday, followed by Along on 28th April, then my hubby on 2nd May and last but not least Nazmi's on 23rd May. Our wedding anniversary was on the 13th of April. I still remember got married during spring break on my 3rd year in university in New York. This time is our 26th anniversary. Can't believe we have been married that long. We went through many obstacles to get through here. Now bless with 5 kids, I consider my life is good. Naqib and Mayah's b/days will be the end of the year. But Naqib took the opportunity to blow the candles on almost other people's b/day.


Bought one cake only for Ayah and Along since their b/day so close.

School?Quite a lot of things happened in school. My upper six students just finished sitting for their mid year examination. I haven't finished marking my classes yet since there were so few of them. I will do it soon. The other forms are still sitting for the exam.
Lower six is finally here. At least the number of them increased compared to last year. Hopefully they will stay since I hate teaching small classes. I am teaching 2 classes lower six, Cergas and Azam. And this year I teach both paper 1 and paper 2. I have to prepare a bit for paper 2 since the last time I thought was in 2002. The syllabus doesn't change, but now everything must be thought in English.Sports day was fun. I considered it was one of the best in the last 14 years I am in ACS. I guess the house teachers went all the way with the march pass. Congrates to all teachers and students who took part in the sports day.Look at me taking picture with the queen of green houseTeachers taking part in teacher's event. Very funny scene.

Teacher's day?
We are celebrating it after the school Holiday. Why so late? Well I guess we can't slot in because of the exam.
Cupcakes made by my daughter for my friends for teacher's day. (thanks a lot Along)

These are some of the things happened in my life in the last 2 months. I will try to update my blog more often.

Thanks Alexis, Ren and the rest for visiting my blog. Thanks for your support.

During school holidays in Mac, I went to Beijing with my daughter Mayah and my friend NSO(she brought her 2 kids along)

We had a good time sight seeing and shopping.

Visiting Great Wall of Cina

Visiting Forbidden City(We were suprised with the snow fall on our first day there)


I don't now why people hanged so many pet locks on the chain on the great Wall.

2ND EVENT(7-8APRIL2010)
In the earlier program, the MSSD handball supposed to be held in Jun. But I got a called saying that they got fund for MSSS game. I was suppose to send some students for selection. Then 3 of my school students got selected to represent distric team. And I was appointed to be the manager for the girls' team.

Briefing before the game started.

Prize giving ceremony(We got 3rd place)



3RD EVENT(17 APR 2010)

The third event is ACS Hari Kecemerlangan 2009. This year I was given a new task. I am in the invitation comittee. But at the same time I was busy with attending central training for Handball district team. When the game ended and I came back to school, I started doing the follow up to verify if they are coming for the prize giving ceremony.

During the cermony, I managed to take the picture of Zureen Sophia(JJ's daughter)


4TH EVENT(19 APR 2010)

Nothing special happen today. This picture was taken on our back from the canteen. I guess this is considered one of the event since we hardly eat in the cateen anymore. Most of the time, I brought food from home. The fod in the canteen is still need much improvemant. We are are still waiting for that to happen.

Look at the dress of Pn Jesse and Poh Lay.

STPM RESULT IS OUT

I want to congratulate those who got good result. May u all get good course in the local U.

For those who are not that happy with the result, remember that this is not the end of the world.
There are so much opportunity waiting for u out there. Maybe academic is not your thing, try on different field.

Best of luck.

STPM RESULT

Well, I am sure everyone is so nervous already waiting for the result to be out. Davin had tried to access his result by using SMS since Monday but to no avail. Wen Yun said the result coming out so fast and she didn't want it. As for e, I am pretty nervous myself, but the bad news is I won't be here tomorrow since I will be going for the Malacca trip with Bowling Club.

I will miss you all tomorrow. But please keep me posted how you did. For those who won't get good result please don't tr to avoid me. I won't think bad of you if u don't pass my maths. And for all of you, I wish all the best and good luck in your future undertaking.

Jumble

The fourth week almost comes to its end. It is Thursday already. Tomorrow is Friday. ACS is having cross country event. My duty is to be the the 'pencatat', since I wanted to be outside the school compound, I exchanged with Ustazah Norsiah to be at the check point E.



It has been a week since I continue writing this post. A lot of things happened in the week.



It started on Friday, while I was standing by the road side guiding the students crossing the street in the cross country event, I got a phone call from my nephew telling me that my big brother is in the hospital in Terengganu. He was admitted for chest pain and he was being treated in the CCU(Coronary Care Unit). It seemed he was having trouble breathing and the doctor diagonised that he has one cloak and he has to go for further treatment.



Then on Saturday morning, I took the flight back to Trg. Since I couldn't visit him until 1 pm and I arrived about 10 am, my high school classmate (her name is Shakimah) fetched me from the airport. We had a small reunion at one of the 'warung' in KT. I purposely asked them to meet me since we haven't seen each other for quite sometime. I had 'nasi dagang' (Trg specialty) and really enjoyed myself. (Felt a bit guilty for enjoying myself too much since my bro is in the hospital).



About 12.30, another friend (Khatijah) sent me to the hospital(actually the hospital is about 5 minutes drive from the place we met). My sister in law was at the hospital and when I called her, she came down to take me to my brother's room. Since my bro is in CCU, 2 people only can visit him at a time. My mistake was, I stayed with my brother too long. When I left, the doctor told my sister in law that his heart beat was very fast. I was suppose to visit him a short while only. He was suppose to be transfer to a normal room, but because of me he was detained in CCU for one more day.



On Sunday, before I took the flight back to KL, I went to visit my bro one more time. He looked very sad since he was still in CCU. After I stayed with him for about 20 minutes, I said goodbye and went out from the room without looking back. I knew I will cry if I turned around look at him.



Then another brother sent me back to the airport. But before we got to the airport, he took me to buy some 'keropok lekor' and we went to the Pasar Cabang Tiga and bought some satar. My flight reached KL at about 5.30 pm. When I got home, my nephew called me and told me that my bro is being transfered to a normal ward already. Thank God.



The next day, my bro was being shifted to Hospital University Kubang Kerian for further treatment. They suppose to do endeogram to remove the cloak. But there was another complication since he was allergic to pennicilin. They tried another form of medication and I guessed it worked since they went through with the procedure. By thursday, my bro is back in his home alrady since the procedure was a success. When I called him he sounded much better. We plan to go bac to TRG to visit him during CNY holiday.



Now my brother is resting at home since he got 1 month medical leave.



Last week there was nothing interesting happened in school. But on Saturday, I and 4 other teachers had to attend the meeting in PPD. We were brief about how to implement extra curicular activities for form six. There might be some changes with our programmes, but they are not yet finalized. We have to have meetings first before we can decide on any changes.



Now I am back in school(Monday already). Nothing much happened today, except we had formal assembly and Puan Emilia launched the 'Sekolah Penyayang' project. U6G won the cleanest class competition for the month of January.



I am stopping now since my post as become so lenghty already. Until we meet next time, adios.

WEEK 2

It has been two weeks of the new school year 2010.
I am taking everything one day at a time. Many new things happened since the new school year started.

1. Now teachers have to use punch card to punch in and punch out. It is still under trial period and the worse thing is one day I forgot to punch out.

2. We(F6 teachers and students) started going back at 3.30 pm. Monday and Wednesday we stay back for extra curricular activities. And for Tuesday and Thursday we have to meet for Research and Development. Each teacher is assigned 5 or 6 students to assist with the research. They have to submit the proposal by Mac and carry on with the research and hand in the whole report by August. The truth is, as a teacher everything is still blur with me since I never did any research when I did my master. While assisting the students, I am also learning something new. I am taking this as a new challenge. Besides assisting the students, teachers also must do their ow research. I am still searching through the net to get some idea about how to do the research. (Maybe if I get something really good, then I can submit my proposal and continue with a PhD.............. wishful thinking----I should have done my PhD when I was younger, might be too late already).

3. Last week Davin reported as a substitute teacher in the school. 'Cher, last year I was your student, now I become your colleague', that was exactly what he said when he came t school.

4. The class went on as usual. I only have 8 period of teaching period(while Lower 6 still not yet here). Besides that I have been given some relief with lower form classes.

That's it for now. I will write more as the new things pop up.

Friday the 8th of Jan 2010

Today is the end of the first week of school already. Actually it is not the end since we, the teachers and some students still need to come tomorrow for the 'gotong royong'.
I will be handling the Upper Six Students and the 'gotong Royong' will be part of the community service.
Good news for my upper six students, they may keep their posts in the clubs or society from the previous year. For those who still don't have any club or society must enter the ones that organise by the form six administration.
So far, I am still coping with my new timetable. Next week we are going to start staying back for extra curicular activities and the 'Research and Developement' project. It is going to be a long day for all form six teachers. There will be a lot of new changes for us and I am still taking this one day at a time.

I am starting having fun teaching upper six classes since U6G has 13 students and U6C has 8 students only.

I am going to stop now. But 2 days ago Siro and Huan Wan came to school. Yesterday Andrian came to collect his certificates.

I am waiting to see the rest of you.

Oh, by the way I am no longer the SPM coordinator and no longer the Handball teacher advisor since they appoint me to be the PK KOKO for form six.

That's all for today.

I Am Back

I have been neglecting my blog for so long already.
A lot of things happen since the last time I wrote something here.
Today is the second day of school already. Eveything is a bit havoc considering we have to form the new admin for form six. Even after I saw the principle and told her I didn't want any admin post, she still put me to be the senior assistance fo extra curicular activities. Well, I have no say in this and I have to accept the post with my 26 periods of teaching and 6 more periods of staying back for the extra activities. Now everyday we have to go back at 3.20 pm. I complained about this to one of my friends, and he advised me to take this as a challange. Well I am going to do it and I will give my best.

Now, back to the classes that I am teaching this year. I only have two classes upper six and I will be teaching onother 2 classes lower six, but it will be both Maths 1 and Maths 2.

I really miss my upper six 2009 students. I miss teaching you guys and I miss having fun with you. Live was simpler when you were here.

I will try to kep my blog up to date and I will let you know what is happening in school.
Bye for now.
