Lets Play~~

Games~~~Wouldn't anyone be excited to play games...I know I would...So when this course tutor said that we are going to play a game that Dr.Jaya invented, me and my classmates were like SUPER EXCITED!!!spending the time in class just playing made us cringe with excitement~~~my prediction that this class will not be the usual 'listen-to-lecture-read-your-books-do-well-in-exam' totally hit a home run...

the Game that we played is called 'DROWGAMES' invented by Dr.Jaya itself...the game is 'educational' game in which we play by answering questions that are posted, some about modals, grammar and many more...DONT say it is boring because that is not the ONLY element in this game...there is also the element of luck, and time set...so sometimes you cant help but crossing your finger while playing hoping that your opponents' luck is just not on their side...and the price for the winner of this game is quite INTERESTING...too bad I'm not going to get it...T.T

But, it is unanimous with everyone in the whole world that NOTHING is PERFECT~so is this game...Well, the first and the most obvious glitch in this game is the fact that the questions are redundant...the same questions may appear twice in a round of the game...so it became irritating especially when you are excitedly playing the game...another one is the lack of animation in the game...so it became boring when you play it in a longer time...
well, since the game is still new, maybe the glitches can be fixed thus this game can become beneficial and fun in the same time...

so Dr Jaya, 11 thumbs up for inventing this game, and hopefully with all the praise I've given to your game minus the flaws, you can give me an Iphone OR an Ipod...WILL YOU??? =)

Songs that last FOREVER and a FORTNIGHT~~

Can you recall the song that tops the chart 3 weeks ago???What is it???Help me find it out because I totally cannot recall what song that became the hit at that time...With songs that came out like almost every seconds we breathe ( TOTAL EXAGGERATION), how can we keep up with new songs and still get a strong memory of the older songs...it is almost impossible, dont you think???

I believe that is the case for Lady Gaga's Alejandro (click on the right bar for preview)...Yes it will be on almost everyone's music playlist for this month and who knows, it might still be famous for the next month...But one thing for sure, it wont be around for another year...People will have to 'google' them to refresh their mind if they were asked about "Alejandro" next year...

However, by listening to "Toumba" by Saieen Zahoor Ahmed I can assure you the sounds will last forever and it will not be an old story even in the year 2070...YES, it is not as famous as "Alejandro", but you can be sure that people around the world will be able to enjoy this song and just get smitten by the melody of the song...PUTTING ASIDE the fact that this song is heavy and leaning towards ISLAM, everybody regardless of of their religion should be able to appreciate this song...It is like a chant that is able to sooth your soul and just clear your mind...YES, we cant understand the lyric unless we speaks Urdu, but honestly, just the melody and the singer's voice is ENOUGH for us to appreciate...

so now people, clear your mind, relax your body and just listen to this song...Put you volume up and play it on the top volume...Get pass the judgmental thoughts and just enjoy BOTH "Alejandro" and "Toumba"...

Howdy~~~

The minute I open my eyes on 12th July 2010, it dawned to me, the fact that I'm a final year student of TESL really shocked me...ahhh how I long for the serene and conflict-LESS life being a junior...but I guess those moments are long gone~~~

anyway...entering this new era of super-senior, it became known to me that almost all the subjects I'm getting my hands on this semester are requiring me to do some PROJECT works...and the most apparent subject of that matter is EDU 3234...

now now...Lets take a deep breath and just face this subject one step in a time...Okay???Dr Jaya surely had his way in teaching us so that instead of just doing bunch of works, we will get to enjoy the class AND do bunch of works...

now I just have to blog about all things we've learnt in Dr.Jaya's class~~~n do leave some thoughts for me okay...
