blog of rhythm and movement

This week, we had been given our minor performance2 that was rhythm and movement. The most interesting part is we need to dance out our identity of group’s name. As our group name is ‘Rose Thorn’, it really makes me felt thorny. How to show out our identity by dancing?

As a group leader, I do have to contribute efforts in chronograph the steps of dance. So, I make myself free for the whole weekend to finish up the dance. Finally, I had finished chronograph my dance. So on Sunday night, I call all my group members to practice at PKP in college Chancellor. Sadly, only three turn up. Then we only learned a few simple steps.

Wednesday is around the corner, this make me felt nervous and sad. I scare I can’t I can’t teach my members, and I am sad because they all didn’t turn up for Monday morning training. On Monday night, the whole PKP is full of people. They are all my course mates, practicing the dance that they need to perform. We also started to practice. Slowly, my mates all started familiar with all the steps. We also do the broacher and synopsis together.

Three days had passed. Today is the day we need to perform. We make ourselves to be in the best condition. Morning, we make ourselves memories all the steps and is our last rehearsal. Then, something happened. Our buddy group, Rachael, has a fall and she spins her knee. She was in pain and tears coming out from her eye. At last, we decide to send her to PK. Although she can’t dance, but she did sacrifice for art.

When we reached Faculty Of Pendidikan, Puan Juridah told us that we are the last group. Group after group, make us so excited. Some of them felt more nervous and nervous. For me, I do think is excited because I love to dance in the crowd. When reached our turn, we strike out our best move and dance. We really enjoyed ourselves because this is our production and we must enjoy it nicely.

Through this performance, we merely have meeting every night and this had help us to build up our relationship among our group member. Besides that, we have the chance to watch our friends perform. I did realize that many of my class mates can dance very well but they are too shy to do so. But when they are on stage, they did make a very good move. They built up their confident and this is very helpful in our major performance. Some of the groups are not prepared, but they did do a great job. I can see that they really putting effort in practicing. This is a great time to develop human’s creativity and rhythmic. I still remember Hoe-Yi say it helped her to get lost of weight because dance requires to move our body figure. We also can make this activity in class so that students can have the chance to do exercise in the meantime release their tension studying.

blog on sound story

This had been my first time doing sound story. When Puan Juridah gives us the outline, I was shock. We need to make story by only doing sound with no vocal. This is tuff. I don’t even can make a nice cat sound. After I observed my classmate, I think we are all new to this activity. We need to tell a story using only vocal sounds. How ridiculous! But at last, we did create a story out.

We are very lucky because our group is the first to perform. After we finish our bla… sound, my course mates interpreted the story with a different version compared to our original idea. But, from what we heard they say, their version make sense too based on the sounds we produced. This will be interesting if as a teacher, we want our students to do it in class. They will find it interesting and concentrate in our lesson.

Then, we are given chance to watch others groups present. Each and every group is trying their voice to make types of sound such as witch, accident, wolf and so on. We need to guess the sequence of the story as well. The sound that most attract me is the sound of the mother crying presented by Priya’s group.
The sound really attracted me. Our classmates really make a very good job.

In my opinion, I think that this is a very good try that all of us are enjoying listening to other course mates’ performance. While listen to the sound, we also make ourselves a happy time there.

PASSION??? Tears of butterfly...

APril fool... i s a good day in cheating.. whole class went for passion in KL Pac. I am not going. I am not cheating. Is just that, i went to help my senior in their theater in engineering hall in Faculty Engineer.
i lost a chance to see a boring play in KLPAC. Indeed, i felt proud of myself, helping my seniors for their theater. This is because i do gain something from them. since i am going to do my theater next sem, this is a very golden chance for me to look at their mistake. haha.. I believe that i wont do the same mistake again as when i see them running up and down the stage at the last min, i soliloquy: this things wont happen to me in next sem. This is not the attitude... Last minutes job always make me nervous.
Their play entitle: Tears of butterfly. funny and somehow meaningful... is like A great injustice.. about pregnant and abortion. It do have moral dillemma...
i do enjoy helping them.
But , i believe that I will do better in next sem... Much more better than what they did...

TO be evaluate…

Well, stimulated teaching seems not an easy task for me. Standing in front speaking with my 2nd language, really make me nervous. Anyway, no matter how, teacher still a human being. Human makes mistake. That why, before I go out to teach, I will make sure I am fully prepare. I think they pay more attention to my pre-reading. As I am doing game, they felt interesting in playing. But it only involves a few peoples. The others only have the chance to watch it. I think I should create a game involve the whole class so that they will all pay attention to me. Pre-reading and while reading is ok.
I like to be evaluated. Through evaluate, I can know my mistake well. Thanks to DR. Edwin who create the chance for us to stand in front and be evaluated by others. It is sometimes embarrassed, but we did learn a lot from mistake.

How it is in evaluating others in simulated teaching

There are many aspects in evaluating a teacher. In my point of view, to evaluate a teacher, I will look at their appearance first. There is a Chinese maxim saying that the sincerity of human is by their appearance. Same goes here. You are a respectful teacher, that why you have to dress decently like what Dr Fauziah always stress on. So, the way you dress up your self is important.

Second, I will like to talk about the set induction that given by the teachers. The set induction should be look remarkable and sound pleasurable so that it can magnetize students’ attention to stick to you. Students enjoy colorful images, video clip or even games. They will felt interesting and curious to know what is going to happen later. So, they will pay attention to you. Then as a teacher, we should know make our set induction related to our next activities so that students can open up their right schemata and they will get what you are trying to teach.

Besides, we have to know the standard of the students we are going to teach. Extract that we choose for pre- reading shouldn’t be too long or too short and not too hard or not too easy. We also must arrange the activities from easy to hard to make the students activate their thinking skill from comprehension to evaluation. Activities that we create must be creative and enjoyable as well. A teacher has to be knowledgeable, but he or she also needs to be creativity. Seriously, teacher is not an easy task but is a full of challenge task.

Last but not least, the voice projection. Teachers with soft voices usually will end up a noisy class. I hate teacher that can’t speak loud either. Speaking alone in front wasting pupils’ time talking about something that only ants can hear what she is talking, really make the pupils annoyed.


As a result, teacher is not an easy task. It is an occupation that full of challenge, courage (to stand in front to speak), knowledgeable, proficiency in your language, creative, friendly but sometimes strict, and you have to act like an actress on the stage.
It really is not an easy payment career.

Reflection on A Streetcar Name Desire

I like this play more than the play before. This is because Streetcar name desire is something that I can understand well The play started with the storyline where Stanley Kowalski - The husband of Stella show he himself that he had tragic with Blanche. He is loyal to his friends, passionate to his wife, and heartlessly cruel to Blanche. By the play’s end, he is a disturbing degenerate: he beats his wife and rapes his sister-in-law. Horrifyingly, he shows no remorse.
Blanche on the other hand, is the character that I hate most in the movie. She represents the shame of women as she flirts around with any guys. Although she has a lots of sad pass, but I really can’t stand a teacher flirting around with her innocent and guilty face when he meet with any guys, and pretend to be young and pity. The most terrible thing that I piss off with her is when she asks Mitch to marry her. She really humiliates all the women in the world. She shouldn’t do that. But one thing felt sad is that her relationship has been destroyed by Stanley and she has been raped by Stanley and she had been committed to an insane asylum at last.

After watching it, it gives me a more clear picture of what a streetcar name desire is. i started to love the story, the characters, the setting, the plots, but not the theme.....

Reflection on the movie Macbeth

Seriously. This movie is violent and is bloody. The storyline is about war in the olden century. Macbeth is about a warrior and because he had listened to the soothsayer, that he will be the mighty king, so, he killed his king and shifts the blame to the guards. Besides, he also attempts to kill his own best friend so that he has no obstacle in his way of being a king because he has no secret in his way of being a king. But he becomes more and more greed and he want to know more what it will happen later. So he went for the three prophecies again to make know about his life road.
Sadly, in the end, he creates a lot of bloods of his peoples included his own queen and he was killed under the sword on a man which was not born by a woman exactly what the prophecy had said.
