Busy as a bee

Today, I had to skip my class with 4 Zuhrah because of more important 'national issues'....Hee Hee...and I am sure you all enjoyed every minute of the free periods. It is going to be a busy week with two major events coming up. Tomorrow, we will have the first rehearsal for the Hari Anugerah Gemilang, followed by the real event the next day. Feeling a wee bit nervous as many of the things are not ready..but as usual, we will always rise to the occasion somehow....we are driven by last-minute genes....Congratulations to all the award recipients in 4 Zuhrah.....remember to treat us..

A Seminar in UPSI

Today, 25th of July, me and some of my friends from SMKDZM which are made up of some students from 4 Zuhrah itself and from other classes too went to UPSI to attend a seminar. There were some other schools that attended the seminar too... The seminar was held to teach students on how to strenghen stabilize personality.

The first topic that was discussed was 'how to make up a stabilize personality for students'. the topic was talked by En. Ahmad Zulfiqar Bin Abdul Hadi. One of the lessons that were taught was that to make up a stabilize personality, one must take care of ones background, appearance, morals, never gives up so easily and be alert at all times. Then we were allowed to take a break and have our breakfast for 15 minutes. Each and every students were given friend rice noodle and tea. Though the rice noodle doesn't taste that good, it was still fulfilling.

After we went back to the lecture hall, we were divided into groups of 10. We were asked to play a game called 'Pulau Bakun'. This is played by dividing into two groups, one is the 'Muslim preacher' and the other was the 'native'. The Muslim preachers came to an island where the natives live to preach them to destroy the swine farm that they have. The students that played as the Muslim preachers must find ways to persuade the natives to detroy the swine farm while the students that played as the natives must find ways to protect the treasure of their island. For your information, 7/10 of the students from SMKDZM played as the natives and among them was Najihah. As you all may know, Najihah likes to talk right? So the natives were like winning for Najihah's bombarding remarks at the Muslim preachers answers. The fight was fierce to be exact.

At about 1.30pm, we were again allowed to take a break for the Muslim students need to perform their Zohor prayers. The lunch that they provided for us was delicious if I may say! It consists of white rice, chicken curry and cabbage soup. (I was disappointed that they told me I can't take seconds for there weren't enough for all, but I got over it rather quickly...)

After having our lunch and gotten back to the lecture hall, another topic was discussed about the group that are lack in knowledge. One of the lesson that were taught was that knowledge is important to set ones future and daily life. To gain knowledge, one must have interest in gaining it by oneself without being asked by others to. At the end of the ceremony, each group got a hamper according to the points that they got during the game. And do you know who won the award for the most supporting group... it was Group 1! The group where Najhah was in. Nobody doubted it. We were given some drinks and kuih before we went back. These are some of the pictures that we have taken during the seminar. Do Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today is the first day of our monthly examination for July. My head was spinning like crazy to answer the questions that were given especially chemistry! I think I did rather badly in chemistry test... no, I really did BADLY in chemistry test just now!!! (I hope I won't flunk...) Ah! And about the English test just now where it ask us to write a report to our teacher on "what makes a happy family"... What does it mean, really? Is it asking us on "How to make a happy family?" or "The reasons for the family to be already happy?"... I'm a bit confuse...

Hi, 4 Zuhrah

Hi guys! I hope this project which is started by Teacher Jenny will be a success. Eventhough many of us will lament as this is an added HOMEWORK, it will be beneficial in the long run. Even as we leave school in two years time, this could be a blog where all ex-4 Zuhrah students meet up!
As you all know, the drama team came out first at district level last week. I am very glad to be a part of it. At first, we didn't have the hope to win because we felt threatened looking at the costumes, make-ups and the settings of the teams from other schools. The last year's champs, SMK Buyong Adil, gave a mind-blowing performance and they were our biggest threat. As their drama was based on a historical legend, it did not attract the audience. Since our drama had the essence of comedy, it kept the audience as well as the judges on their feet. a special credit has to be given to the character of 'Sinappan' for giving a boost to the drama. Thanks to Sir Edmund and Teacher Jenny for their dramatic coaching. Besides all the emotion roller-coasters going on because of the drama team, I still hope we win the state level competition on the 1st August 2009 in Teknik, Slim River. Please pray for our victory. Bye!

Vision Blogs

One of our class activity was to do our vision board and share with each other. It was really interesting to know you better through your vision board. I am reminded once again that you are not just a statistic to me. Each of you have your dreams and hopes. Thank you for taking the time to do your vision boards and to share your life with me.

Dear 4 Zuhrah,

Today marks the beginning of another class project. We are going to keep a class blog and members are free to blog (in English, of course) about anything that happens in their lives. I would encourage members to blog at least once a week (minimum) and keep this blog going with comments and encouraging remarks. Happy Writing.

Mrs Jenny
