I tried to call my mak a few times, and my credit is getting lesser and lesser. Giving up, I called my uncle asking what happened to her. I know that she doesn’t go to terawih if my adik is not at home. So, I called some people, less than 3 minutes I reckon, then I tried to call my mak again. Miracle happened. Mak answered my call and we chatted. She said the phone rung about 4 times but she didn’t hear the other side, and I didn’t hear her as well. No wonder my credit was being deducted. Blimey! So the problem is the phone. I told her, what’s the purpose of paying 30 ringgit per month if you can’t get a good phone. TELEKOM makes money about RM 360 per year, per household. Imagine how many customers they have. I hope the nenek and makcik pakcik in the kampung know their rights and take action instead complaining to himself. We ought to get the best service since we pay.

1. You cried willfully of seeing a suffering? (Japanese and korean drama is not in the list)
2. You make one’s day?
3. You keep the smile whole day?
4. You give all your love and soul yet purify your heart?
5. You contribute to the society? What more world?
6. You realised you can change this world?

Do you remember? Do you still have a heart? Do you dream a dream? Do you know the reason for you existence? Do you realise you are the chosen one? Do you??

Alhamdulillah. I’m alive and still kicking. Tonight, I can call what I had during iftar and after taraweeh a feast. Alhamdulillah. Came back to my own nest, the Darfur Ramadan appeal by Muslim Aid was on air. I was like, oh my god. I had all nice food and warm place to stay, and they? Astaghfirullah, I am so sorry my brothers and sisters. In this Ramadan I only think what should I eat for breakfast and iftar, thinking what menu etc; I have totally forgotten about other people. How selfish I have become. What have become of me? I just listened to 13th hadith. Did I learn from it? A saying goes “Do to others as you want others do unto you”.

Abu Hamzah Anas bin Malik, radiyallahu ‘anhu, who was the servant of the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam, reported that the Prophet, sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam, said:

“None of you truly believes (in Allah and in His religion) until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself”

Since I started my study in MARJON, I learn a lot about reflective teaching and learning. You can read more from Pollard and Tann’s book, “Reflective teaching in the primary school: a handbook for the classroom”.

This link will take you directly to the book in Amazon. LOL.

So, the book is our textbook. Ouh remind me to send all the library books by 2nd October. We were asked to write learning log. Like a diary. Well you can call it a learning diary as well. They won’t check your diary and respect your privacy but it’s me who didn’t write much. Hahah.

What do we write in learning log?

What we gain from the sessions. What we like and dislike. As short or as long as you want (er, am I allowed to say ‘as’ three times in here?). We were encouraged to be outspoken, challenge our knowledge and seek more. We no longer live in ‘spoonfeeding’ classroom. Studying in MARJON gives me more room to explore and vent. It’s not a crime at all. They appreciate it very very much.

Feedback form

By the end of the module or during the submission of an assignment, we are asked to write an evaluation form. If you don’t, by the time we are supposed to get our assignment mark, Michelle the INTED (International Education Department) secretary will say “those who haven’t write their feedback form will not get their results, thankyouverymuch!”. Omaigod, I thought they don’t care if I don’t send a feedback form but actually they count. PWN3D!!! So that’s how we help them in order to help us. We improve each other. If we don’t tell them what do we feel, obviously there’s not much room for improvement. They (INTED) want to know how much the module has helped us. Simple as that. Critical criticism is what I filled in. Take this note: bashing and critical criticism has a very big difference.

MARJON culture (or UK?)

Recently I made complaint regarding the MARJON website layout to the webmaster. Guess what? He replied me the very next day. Just like Royal Mail 1st class mail option. Hahah. He replied me with a thank you and tell me that my feedback will be forwarded to the web team. What a manly man.

Wonder what I wrote?

The quotation “simplicity is beauty, beauty is the art” is not my quotation. The credit will be given to c4f, who gives me support in improving my college website from disgrace. I would say my email is a bit harsh, like Cowell’s comment, but they’re fine with it I reckon.

I want to thank them for their supportive and warming email, as a reply for my fiery feedback email. It’s all about improvement. Well, who doesn’t want to?
