Today,I thought I should better wash my eyes right after the exams.My third monthly test had just passed today.In other words,today was the last day for the monthly test.During these three days,I had seen something different in the exam hall.So amazing!I couldn't believe about what I had seen.Very unbelievable indeed!
First,some of my friends[I don't wish to mention their name.Who had done will know it.] was busy talking before the exam started.They would only stop talking when the teacher said:"Is time for your test now."Then,just right after the exam finished,their conversation would be like this:"Oh my god,why I didn't read this chapter??","Why I don't know how to do the Mathematics question?","Why the teacher doesn't tell us the question??","Alamak,I forget to read it?","Why the exam is so difficult?"...A lot of "why"will be asked by them.However,there is a question that they will never ask:"Why I want to talk so much before the exam and don't sit and do the revision properly??Why I don't notice that I have affect others?"Every time when I listened to their conservations,I would give myself a smile.I treat their situations as a lesson to me.I know if I want to excel in exam,I should speak less and listen more as what Mr. See had said in this morning.I should do revision earlier and earlier.Don't study at the eleventh hour.This is the lesson what I had learnt from myself and my friends.
Secondly,this was a more serious things that made me feel I had done something wrong.In the exam hall,when the exam was still running,I saw a few students were busy copying the answers.[I think I shouldn't and couldn't mention their names.]Either the teacher's children or not,they dared to ask other students about the answers for the test while the exam was still running.They were willing to share their answer with each other without feeling embarrassed or shy of their behaviour.When their actions were seen by other people,they also didn't mind about what will the people thought about them.They just wanted to score a higher mark.I really can't accept the fact to believe that they will cheat in examination.Is that a crime too??To them,I don't know whether it means...
But,to me,it is a serious crime in my mind.Frankly,I had done cheating in my spelling test in Primary 1 when I was still young.I didn't know why I do it so...I still remember the situation on that day...My Malay's teacher entered the class who was going to give us a spelling test.She was a real Malay person.Maybe I wanted to get hundred marks at that time but I didn't prepare it well.So,I decided to refer to the books during the spelling test.Unfortunately,my teacher had realised about my actions.She was very angry with me and kept calling my name to stop me from copying the words.However she just called my name and doesn't say anymore things.She tried to save my face.Lastly,my conscience stopped me to do it so.At last,I didn't write anything on my book.I knew I was wrong and made the teacher angry.I was very regret at that time.The teacher was angry and scolded me sadly.Later,the Malay teacher had transferred to other school and I didn't see her until now.Although I don't know her name,I will still remember the situation on that day forever.And I promised to myself that I wouldn't repeat my mistakes anymore!I don't want to be a liar anymore.
In short,I just hope that I will not do cheating in exam anymore.I hoped other people can do this so.Please believe me,cheating will not help you in the actual examination.

Time Management
15 Time Management Tips:
In the meantime, here are 15 practical time management tips to help you get started...
1. Write things down:A common time management mistake is to try to use your memory to keep track of too many details leading to information overload. Using a to-do list to write things down is a great way to take control of your projects and tasks and keep yourself organized.
2. Prioritize your list:Prioritizing your to-do list helps you focus and spend more of your time on the things that really matter to you. Rate your tasks into categories using the ABCD prioritization system described in the time management course.
3. Plan your week:Spend some time at the beginning of each week to plan your schedule. Taking the extra time to do this will help increase your productivity and balance your important long-term projects with your more urgent tasks. All you need is fifteen to thirty minutes each week for your planning session.
4. Carry a notebook:You never know when you are going to have a great idea or brilliant insight. Carry a small notebook with you wherever you go so you can capture your thoughts. If you wait too long to write them down you could forget. Another option is to use a digital recorder.
5. Learn to say no:Many people become overloaded with too much work because they overcommit; they say yes when they really should be saying no. Learn to say no to low priority requests and you will free up time to spend on things that are more important.
6. Think before acting:How many times have you said yes to something you later regretted? Before committing to a new task, stop to think about it before you give your answer. This will prevent you from taking on too much work.
7. Continuously improve yourself:Make time in your schedule to learn new things and develop your natural talents and abilities. For example, you could take a class, attend a training program, or read a book. Continuously improving your knowledge and skills increases your marketability, can help boost your career, and is the most reliable path to financial independence.
8. Think about what you are giving up to do your regular activities:It is a good idea to evaluate regularly how you are spending your time. In some cases, the best thing you can do is to stop doing an activity that is no longer serving you so you can spend the time doing something more valuable. Consider what you are giving up in order to maintain your current activities.
9. Use a time management system:Using a time management system can help you keep track of everything that you need to do, organize and prioritize your work, and develop sound plans to complete it. An integrated system is like glue that holds all the best time management practices together.
10. Identify bad habits:Make a list of bad habits that are stealing your time, sabotaging your goals, and blocking your success. After you do, work on them one at a time and systematically eliminate them from your life. Remember that the easiest way to eliminate a bad habit, it to replace it with a better habit.
11. Don't do other people's work:Are you in the habit of doing other people's work because or a 'hero' mentality? Doing this takes up time that you may not have. Instead, focus on your own projects and goals, learn to delegate effectively, and teach others how to do their own work.
12. Keep a goal journal:Schedule time to set and evaluate your goals. Start a journal and write down your progress for each goal. Go through your goal journal each week to make sure you are on the right track.
Keeping a journal on your computer has never been easier!
13. Don't be a perfectionist:Some tasks don't require your best effort. Sending a short email to a colleague, for example, shouldn't take any more than a few minutes. Learn to distinguish between tasks that deserve to be done excellently and tasks that just need to be done.
14. Beware of "filler"tasks:When you have a to-do list filled with important tasks, be careful not to get distracted by "filler"tasks. Things such as organizing your bookcase or filing papers can wait until you tackle the items that have the highest priority.
15. Avoid "efficiency traps":Being efficient doesn't necessarily mean that you are being productive. Avoid taking on tasks that you can do with efficiency that don't need to be done at all. Just because you are busy and getting things done doesn't mean you are actually accomplishing anything significant.

English
Today,I met my teacher,Madam Siti Fatimah in the school.It was quite a long time that I hadn't chat with her.Last year,when she was still teaching me,I could always see her around the school.However since this year,it is hard for me to meet her.Every chance for us to meet each other should be said as depends on our density.She had said that I can see her anytime as I like.I had found her for few times but because of the density,I got no chance to see her.She was not around there.Maybe is the power of density,I met the another teacher who teachs me right now at there every time I went to see Madam Siti Fatimah.Is the density try to pull my leg??haha...Never mind,I will still keep going on to see her when I miss her."Where there is a will,there is a way".Right?
Today,I got chance to chat with Madam Siti Fatimah again.Actually,I enjoy chatting with her every time.This is definitely not because of her son,Aiman.{Madam Nor Laili,I write it in purpose to let you see.haha...}Every time when I chat with her,her words will always give me some inspirations and encouragements.My mood will be in the high spirit too after having a talk with her.I think she had taught me some lessons in being a good person.When I talked with her just now,there were two chinese girls passed by who were amazing that both of us chatted in English.One of the girls said:"Wah!They are chatting in English leh!!So clever......"When I heard these words,I felt very happy,satisfied and grateful towards my teacher.
Last year,she taught my class English.I started loving this subject already when I was in primary school.However,I still can't speak English fluently at the beginning of last year.I was shy to speak English in front of my teachers even in front of my classmates.I seldom opened my mouth during English lessons because I was afraid of making mistakes in speaking.Until the first day that Madam Siti Fatimah entered my class,I didn't know where I got the courage to speak out English.How brave I was during that moment.hehe...^^I still remember the situation of that day during her class.Maybe this was a historical moment for me.And since that day I started my first step to learn on how to speak in English confidently.I always tried to find any opportunity to speak English with her.After half year,I could speak in front of her and my classmates already.Until today,I can speak English confidently with her,my friends and my teachers.Besides,I can write essay in English better than before.During my oral tests,I feel less nervous now.So,I am very thankful and grateful towards her.
If she never become my English's teacher,maybe I just start learning to speak in English now.I have a good English's teacher now too.She is Madam Lee Meow Ling.She is as good as Madam Siti Fatimah in my heart.Both of them are very kind,beautiful,caring,dedication,serious,like to make jokes with me and so on.However,there is a fact that Madam Lee is more fierce than Madam Siti Fatimah.This is true,please believe me.haha...
Don't forget about my former Mathematic's teacher,Ms Eng and my former ICT's teacher,Madam Nor Laili.They are as good as Madam Lee and Madam Siti Fatimah.All of them are serious and caring person.Although they have some difference between each other,I still like them.They taught me the meaning of life;they tried to make the situation in the class become lively;they are dedication in teaching us and so on.So grateful because I can meet them in my life.;-pThank you very much to all of my teachers!!!Thank you.

Relaxing
I am a simple girl but I have a complex mind...
I always think of something when I do anything,
walking,eating,drinking,reading,seeing,listening,jogging,writing,mopping...
even when I am listening to the teacher's lessons...
Sometimes,I cannot stop my mind...
What is in my mind actually???
The answer is all the things surrounding me...
My family,friends,teachers,customers,school life,homework and so on...
So,I think I have thought too much already sometimes...
My teacher advised me not to compare everything with others,
not to demand anyone be what you want him/her to be,
not to order anyone to follow your behaviour...
And be appreciated for what you have had,
be grateful to the people who had helped you,
be brave to what problems you are facing,
be cheerful everyday in your life...
because time will not stop whether you are happy or sad......
Recently,I try to accept the facts that I am facing,
try not to compare everything with others,
try to discipline myself,
try to relax myself,
try to appreciate the things I have...
Mm...That sounds great and wonderful...
It makes me feel more comfortable and just like living in a happiness world...
So,just relax ourselves and be calm to face any problems.
Because sometimes something or someone should be slow and steady.;-p
Slow and steady can be a winner too.
