UM ORIENTATION WEEK First of all, I believe that the students who read this blog will be the one who have officially gain the admission into University of Malaya. Congratulations to all of you as you have gained admission into the top university in Malaysia! Before I write about my life of orientation week in UM, bear in mind that university life will be totally different compared to your Form Six and matriculation. For your information, orientation week will be the only week where you will still be treated as a child in your whole university life. In university, everything has to be independent. Moreover, everything is based on volunteerism and no one is going to force you to do anything. You can enjoy your campus life but do always remember that academics should always be the first priority. Here are some important terms that will be used during orientation week.  1.

Part Time Tuition Centre Teacher ( Pros and Cons )

Image
It is common for all fresh graduates assume that teaching children is extremely funny and easy task. At certain period, yes it is. Nevertheless, for some time it might not. Normally, it depends on your perspective. Let me do a simple postmortem and classify  two perspectives as a tuition teacher based on my experience. ( Pros and Cons ) Good part 1. Experiencing surreal time machine You are going to re-meet your history when you teach the younger generation. When we were young, we would tend to say everything without thinking, same goes with the children nowadays. Yes, they will say anything without thinking. It was quite ridiculous. For example, ~When I become adult, I want to marry 14 wives. ~We suffer because of the people acts who  invent the school. ~Chan X X loves Lee X X. ~I am the smartest girl in the school. ~ Ye! Yap X X fart. ~Pang X X did not wash his hands after going to toilet. For Year 4,5,6, they pretend to be mature but as a matter of f...

Principle of Cheatery ( Theory and Story )

Image
Principle of Cheatery ( Theory + Story = Lesson ) It is hard to cheat, but at the same time it is easy to be cheated. Subjectively, it sounds radical but rational. To define all of the deceivers, they  are the source of evilness, because they have misused the power of mouth to destroy the trustworthiness between humans.

Image
 PIDM is one of the most famous scholarships among Malaysian since there is no bond. I received a call on June. I was notified to attend an interview on July. PIDM office was very near to a KL Central. For my year, only 35 people were chosen for interview out of all applicants. 5 people attended the interview per session. ( 1 person was absent, hence only left 4 people. ) After verifying our original documents, we were all given reimbursement for transportation fees. Soon, the challenge began. Generally, there were 3 parts for this interview. A. Group discussion For my session, we got the topic ' Is technology good or bad ?

In a nutshell, I have rejected the scholarship due to personal reason.                                                                Nevertheless, it was the simplest scholarship interview that I ever attended.

( Astro, Malaysia Airport, TM and so forth. ) However, there were three scholarship interviews that I ever failed in the middle journey. Here is the story . 1. Genting Resort Malaysia Scholarship During my economics tutorial in matriculation, suddenly I got a call. It was the first time I got reply from the scholarship. Nervously, I did my first time telephone interview in my life. ( It was long and took around 15 minutes. ) I waited for a few weeks. Unbelievably,  I was shortlisted successfully.
