The Changes/Progress my country has experienced from 9.5.2018 until today

To be honest, not many changes has happened since 9.5.2018. I guess the only changes that happened was there is no more GST which means the price of most things have dropped. However, SST have been introduced and I feel like it has went back up again and I do not feel any difference between GST and SST.

Besides that, our education has always been the same. We are learning exactly what our seniors learned back then. I feel that our prime minister should really pay attention on our environment when we study. I was expecting to have like air conditioners in each of the classrooms right after the new government took over.

In conclusion, not much has happened. I do not have any idea on the reason why adults are so happy with this new government where as everything kind of stays the same. I guess the only thing is that this new government has no corruption but THAT IS THE ONLY THING.

Pyramid ( free topic )

A pyramid is a structure whose outer surfaces are triangular and converge to a single point at the top, making the shape roughly a pyramid in the geometric sense. The base of a pyramid can be trilateral, quadrilateral, or of any polygon shape. As such, a pyramid has at least three outer triangular surfaces (at least four faces including the base). The square pyramid, with a square base and four triangular outer surfaces, is a common version.

A pyramid's design, with the majority of the weight closer to the ground, and with the pyramidion on top, means that less material higher up on the pyramid will be pushing down from above. This distribution of weight allowed early civilizations to create stable monumental structures.

Civilizations in many parts of the world have built pyramids. The largest pyramid by volume is the Great Pyramid of Cholula, in the Mexican state of Puebla. For thousands of years, the largest structures on Earth were pyramids—first the Red Pyramid in the Dashur Necropolis and then the Great Pyramid of Khufu, both in Egypt - the latter is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still remaining.

Khufu's Pyramid, built mainly of limestone (with large red granite blocks used in some interior chambers), is considered an architectural masterpiece. It contains over 2,000,000 blocks ranging in weight from 2.5 tonnes (5,500 lb) to 15 tonnes (33,000 lb) and is built on a square base with sides measuring about 230 m (755 ft), covering 13 acres. Its four sides face the four cardinal points precisely and it has an angle of 52 degrees. The original height of the pyramid was 146.5 m (488 ft), but today it is only 137 m (455 ft) high as 9 m (33 ft) has gone missing due to theft of the fine quality white Tura limestone covering, or casing stones, for construction in Cairo. It remains the tallest pyramid

Ladies should not accept jobs that take them away from home excessively

I certainly agree with this statement above. Ladies have many responsibilities that they have to do not only during their work but also in their homes especially family members.

Ladies who accepts jobs that requires to take them away from will result in a family problem. This is because if ladies leave their families often, they are not able to bond together with their family members which causes arguments that are not even necessary.

Besides that, ladies who have children, babies in particular also needs to be at home so that they can take care of their of their children. For example, ladies who have children needs to always put on diapers for their children when they urine or poo on it. In my opinion, this requires a woman to do instead of a man.

In conclusion, it is a choice for the ladies whether or not to accept these kind of jobs. It is acceptable to take the job, but if it needs one to sacrifice a lot of their time that they spend at home with family and housework, it is not recommended to accept this kind of jobs

A momentous moment in the history of Malaysia

The momentous moment in the History of Malaysia that I am going to type about is when Malaysia achieved Independence. Hari Merdeka (Malaysian for 'Independence Day'), also known as Hari Kebangsaan (National day), refers to the day when the Federation of Malaya's independence from the British Empire was officially declared. At exactly 09:30 on 31 August 1957, the declaration was read by the first Chief Minister of Malaya, Tunku Abdul Rahman at the Merdeka Stadium in the presence of thousands of people including Malay Rulers, members of the federal government, and foreign dignitaries. To commemorate the event, Hari Merdeka was declared a national holiday in Malaysia and observed annually on 31 August.

The effort for independence was spearheaded by Tunku Abdul Rahman, the first Prime Minister of Malaysia, who led a delegation of ministers and political leaders of Malaya in negotiations with the British in London for Merdeka, or independence along with the first president of the Malayan Chinese Association (MCA) Tun Dato Sir Tan Cheng Lock and fifth President of Malaysian Indian Congress Tun V. T. Sambanthan. Once it became clear that the Communist threat posed during the Malayan Emergency was petering out, agreement was reached on 8 February 1956, for Malaya to gain independence from the British Empire. However, logistical and administrative reasons led to the official proclamation of independence in the next year, on 31 August 1957, at Stadium Merdeka (Independence Stadium), in Kuala Lumpur, which was purposely built for the celebrations of national Independence Day. The announcement of the day was set months earlier by the Tunku in a Melaka meeting of the Alliance.

On the night of 30 August 1957, crowds gathered at the Merdeka Square (Padang) in Kuala Lumpur to witness the handover of power from the British. Prime Minister-designate Tunku Abdul Rahman arrived at 11:58 p.m. and joined members of the Alliance Party's youth divisions in observing two minutes of darkness. On the stroke of midnight, the lights were switched back on, and the Union Flag in the square was lowered. The new Flag of Malaya was raised as the national anthem Negaraku was played. This was followed by seven chants of "Merdeka" by the crowd. Tunku Abdul Rahman later gave a speech hailing the ceremony as the "greatest moment in the life of the Malayan people". Before giving the address to the crowd, he was given a necklace by representatives of the Alliance Party youth in honour of this great occasion in history, with a map of Malaya inscribed on it. The event ended at one in the morning the next day.

On the morning of 31 August 1957, the festivities moved to the newly completed Merdeka Stadium. More than 20,000 people witnessed the ceremony, which began at 9:30 a.m. Those in attendance included rulers of the Malay states, foreign dignitaries, members of the federal cabinet, and citizens. The Queen's representative, the Duke of Gloucester presented Tunku Abdul Rahman with the instrument of independence. Tunku then proceeded to read the Proclamation of Independence, which culminated in the chanting of "Merdeka!" seven times with the crowd joining in. The ceremony continued with the raising of the National Flag of Malaya accompanied by the national anthem being played by a military band and a 21-gun salute, followed by an azan call and a thanksgiving prayer in honour of this great occasion.

The day followed with the solemn installation of the first Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Tuanku Abdul Rahman of Negeri Sembilan, at Jalan Ampang, and the first installation banquet in his honour in the evening followed by a beating retreat performance and a fireworks display. Sports events and other events marked the birth of the new nation.

Teachers Day  - What it means to me and how I celebrate it every year from primary school till now

Teachers day to me is a wake up call to all the students out there (anyone who is still learning) irrespective of the age. It is a subtle way for the learners to realize and humble themselves that whatever they are, it is because of a bigger hand above them. It is a day to remind the learners to have gratitude towards the gurus who have lent their hand in their success. Feelings of gratitude and humility will ensure that we are always grounded and believe that there is always someone higher than us, watching us, protecting us, guiding us and making us human.

There will always be ex-students visiting and coming back to their old school to see the teachers who has taught them and guide them. This shows how much we need teachers to guide us and walk through our path in our teenage life to change us to a better and successful person. Teenagers now thinks that having teachers is a useless thing and that they should not even exist. However, at some point in the future, we will thank them for their good deeds and what they have done to change us all.

Since primary school, it has not really change since then. We celebrate every May and it always ends with joyfulness. Ever since standard 1, I always go to school sit down look at the teachers playing sports and I find it very amusing. This is because we do not really look at the sporty side of the teachers especially when you see your discipline teacher having fun, smiling and laughing, it just does not sound right and it gives me the creeps. I celebrate Teachers Day this year in a way that is quite different than the past years. This is because I performed for the teachers this year. This is one of the way on how I paid respect to the teachers who taught me and guide me.

Teachers Day is a day where all of us should attend to school to celebrate. If we skip school, this is not the way on how we respect the teachers. They have worked hard for us. Why not do something for them to repay for what they have done to us?

What will teenagers be like in 100 years?

What will teenagers be like in 100 years? This is a question that I have thought before but it has not come into my mind. I think it is a topic where it can go everywhere and it can be anything. Us teenagers now are already having imaginations of endless possibilities and we can already shape shift the future to what we want starting from what we are having now.

Teenagers these days are pampered. We need servants and helpers to help us do our work. I think with the technology that they will have in the future, they will be much more pampered. Imagine with the technology now, we are already pampered and with the technology in the future, we do not even need to sit for exams. This is because teenagers might already have robots doing their homework. Besides that, house chores can be done with an artificial human. Maybe it can be done within seconds productively. Teenagers do not even need a pen and a paper to write because maybe there will be a machine that can scan what we are thinking and typing it put as we think what we want to write or say then printing it out.

Moreover, do teenagers even need to go to school? I think that the students in 100 years has the capability to use at least 70-80% capacity of their brains with a help of a machine. There will also be much more things that will be discovered and more accurate things to what we are learning now. Therefore, I think that teenagers now will be smarter than a present day adult.

I think teenagers can also communicate and socialize conveniently. With the current social media like facebook and skype is already considered as really convenient. I have a feeling that there will be an app that helps us too feel and touch a person who you are communicating but in different places. Like I said, the possibilities are endless. I really hope that with all this technologies, the teenagers in the future will be even more sociable instead of using their smart phones and computers.

These expectations of mine may come true and it may not. Our world is evolving day by day. Anything can happen in our future. We only do not know whether the effects will be good or bad.

My First ULBS for English

I did my English ULBS on the 18^th April 2018. This ULBS contributes marks to our SPM English exam. I really dislike presenting in front of a crowd of people. However, anything related about contributing marks to or SPM exam is CRUCIAL. Therefore, I went out looking as brave as a lion and did my best. After this my presentation is done, I felt relieved as if I just finished releasing my faeces after in a state of emergency. So here is the whole process of it.

Our English teacher, Puan Monica asked whoever just finish presenting to pick a number for the next person to go up and present. My number was 16 and I was one of the few who has not presented yet. My heart was beating as fast as lighting. I was hoping that my friend would not pick me but he did.

I went up and just staring at the class made me sweat profusely. It felt like you are watching the TV to see who is the future ruler of Malaysia. The whole class took a glance at me and they went back doing their work as if they thought that my story wasn’t interesting. As I was presenting, it did not feel that bad. It went pretty smoothly. I guess it was because everyone was as busy as a bee doing their work.

After the presentation was done, the class had to ask me questions about the storybook. By answering them, I get to have extra marks and if they ask, they get extra marks. After I was done answering the questions, my teacher called me to sign to show that I am done. My anxiousness came back and as I was walking towards her I was really nervous because my marks is written on the paper. As I looked at it, it was 25 and I was relieved again. It is a pretty high mark.

The presentation was not perfect or great to me but I know I did my best. I guess I could have done better but it is good enough. I hope that the presentations that I do next time would be better but I believe the next time I do it, I would not care unless it is for MARKS.
