Another week full of surprise! I enjoy Dr. Jaya’s class for the variety that he provides us. It’s just not about sitting and listening to lecture but it’s about exploring and widening our knowledge and to experience the world. So, our journey this week was to “ Dewan Besar” to “ Pameran Reka Cipta dan Inovasi” Our whole class walked together to dewan besar and we explored the place. I was pleased to see all the research and findings that were placed for our view. We had a chance to view all the recent findings and all those innovative creatures that are full of passion and knowledge.
I was amazed of all their hard work and strength that they have put in to bring success to their project. I still remember the drowgames corner, the innovative chili grinder, the multipurpose ironing board, table, chair and even food. I thought for a second that they were really gifted people…. Hope I would be there some day!

(http://drowgames.com/).....great amusement!
As the modern saying goes, “have a break, have a kit kat” at times when we are out of kit kat we can use drowgames to relax ourselves. Well I would say this because I experienced it on my own and felt my time was not wasted instead it made my day. I had a very rough and I felt very down yet I went to class as usual expecting things would be the same. We got in that day and Alicia announced that we are going to play a game! “ OH, I thought” So I started to play the game. I logged in started to play. After logging in I waited for a friend to play with me. It took a long time till I could play. My first partner was renuga. At first, I did not understand anything so the game was not exciting for me.
Half way playing my computer hanged and I could not continue to play. So I stood to watch how cheah was playing. I observed how he played and learned from him how to play as there was technique to be followed. Once I had a view of what the game was about I started to play and surprisingly I lost myself in the game. I found it interesting, fun and challenging too. To guess the answer in such a limited time was a thrilling experience….. On top of all that, I felt I had a real break! I think drowgames should be introduce in schools because it captivates the students interest and also helps them to build their vocabulary. Instead of normal practice and drills in school this would be a tremendous change for the teacher and the student. DR.Jaya, the game was a SUCESS!!!

Practical....and 5W1H !
7Th semester...practical is here.....arrrr! it’s a kind scary word I guess. I wonder how fast time has passed. It was just like our second semester and now here we are. Unbelievable but true. There are a lot of things to be settled. It’s like the 5W1H question, Why, Where, What. Who, and How. Where are we going to go for our practical??? I guess we don’t have a choice unless we are sick or getting married soon as dr. Jaya said. Why are going for this practical? Now that’s a hard question to ask and to answer. I feel what Che Pah said was true. Practical would determine if we are going to be future teachers. These 12 weeks is going to be a test on our capability, strength, luck, patients, passion and style. At the end of this practical everyone would have a clear outlook of their future.
What are we going to do during our practical? This question has a very lengthy answer i guess. We have not gone deep into this question yet. So i guess we would have another session with him discussing this matter. Who am I going to do my practical with? Dr.Jaya has just made our lives much easier by giving a chance to choose our partner. This really helped as it would be easy for us to arrange our accommodation and transportation. Lastly, how are we going to do our practical? I think answer for this question is been given by Che pah every week! What kind of teacher you want to be? What style of teaching you want to use? This is the question that really makes you think “ Oh my God, I am a teacher! “
Now days are getting near and preparation should start from now i guess. There are lots n lots of things to be done. Practical here I come !

The Yin Yang week !
Dr. Jaya’s class has always been something that I look forward. It is in his class I realise we are teachers and we should train ourselves to be teachers who are meant to be going to HEAVEN. The journey in this semester started with the Yin Yang concept. That’s my interpretation of what I saw. The two songs that were played had a deep meaning and it really gives us a chance to love music once again. Alehandro with its explicit scenes may have made some to open wide their eyes, but it surely made the others to close their eyes and open their ears. The music itself has its own strength to capture the mind and divert our soul towards the ladies words.
On the other hand, Sain Zahoor’s music did steal the evening. I felt that music made my day. I believe when it comes to God, worships done in any language would reach everybody. When it comes to God, you can understand him in any language, even that’s the first time you are listening the language. I felt honoured to be given the chance to listen such a wonderful piece.
Both these songs had their strength and weaknesses but both songs had values that can be explained to students. I prefer to use the Sain Zainoor’s in my class as this would be more appropriate in our Malaysian school context. Alehandro song can be used but it’s better for students doing higher education. On the whole my first week was a blast! The Yin Yang week was superb.
