Trials

Tomorrow will be the day the majority of SPM candidates will be having their trial exams(With the exception of CGL of course). Some slightly later, some will start after today.

And it would be the inevitable period where people will mourn or groan aloud that they can't do it, will fail their subjects badly and daa dee daa dee daa...

I mean, if they really want to spend their time groaning, they could save their tears and their whining for the economy, global warming, political chaos or even the burial of MJ.

(Boohoo, I'm dead)

Back to the topic, while some starts groaning about their exams, some come out with "equations" that justify why students fail in exams. Ever heard of the list of things people do in a lifetime and how much time each of those chores took? (e.g. Talking - 4 Days) and then they subtract an average life span with all their chores which leaves studying into 0.

Okay, I admit I was amused by that. But it does not justify those who work hard for their results and earned 8A's or more. Some to the extent of 20. Are you trying to suggest that those who study so hard that they would leave out their daily chores? You think these people are zombies???

You could say that she took multiple subjects related to her faith(that is Islam) and that is the reason she could achieve so many A's. But then again, 20 subjects are tiring enough, not to mention the papers each subject consist of. So, applause to this girl who is very lucky just to have a plate of rice on her table.

At the end of the day, everyone can do well in their studies. Some may not be academically talented, but they can still earn a decent score. As for me, all I want is that I have the assurance that I done well and that "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."- 2 timothy 4.7

So, study without fail cause you will fail without study. (I hope I can copyright this phrase)

Until next time.

A New World Survey

Got this from an email:

NEW WORLD SURVEY

Last month a world-wide Phone survey was conducted by the UN. The only question asked was:-

"Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?"

The survey was a huge failure because of the following:

In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant.

In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant.

In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.

In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant.

In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant.
In South America they didn't know what "please" meant.

In the US they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.

And Finally...........................

In Australia they hung up because they couldn't understand the Indian accent.

I like the punchline. I never know that the UN's voice is someone born in the streets of Madras....or Kampung Buah Pala.

I think if Malaysians were to fit in the survey. I think we won't understand what "give" means.The irony of this is so depressing cause Malaysians are thought to be very generous, and yet we crowd around an accident scene cause we like to "jaga tepi kain orang" without any regards of the road users who maybe have something more urgent errands to take care of rather than some dead man who has a " Lisen Kopi".
