No one would have guessed that I wud end up being a lecturer! Not even me...its totally new for me but at this stage...it still seems to be all hazy for me. I have no idea whether I am doina good job or not, but I know I am putting all my effort in making sure I can deliver!
Years of being student, sitting on the chair, and looking at my lecturer hoping that he or she would end the class fast as I am losing my attention span..was what I was doin. Now picking up the new role as lecturer, i know how it feels to be on the other side of the room..with students staring at me...either because they dont understand a single word I say or because they dont wanna be cought sleeping in my class! I wonder what is goin on in my students head....I really wanna make sure I communicate well with them and deliver the message or information across..
If i get a chance to turn back the time and be back in my college days wearing the low hanging jeans, printed t-shirt with a bag slinging across my shoulder & chewing gum in my mouth...well I wud try to be a good student. Not to say I have been a bad one, but I never really cared for my lecturer's effort. I wud make sure my lecturer know whether she/he did manage to make me understand the subject!...
All the naughty things I did with my syndicate group (friends!) always crosses my mind nowdays. We used to take turns to sleep and alert each other when the lecturer notices...sometimes we will have a manual chat...using paper and pen and passing the paper around! It was fun. We will only sit in the back row as it gives us more freedom to mind our own stuffs. hahahaha...those were the times...
I studied hard and studied well knowing that unlike others...as for me, my father had to form out his own cash to pay for my studies. I hope my students will realize how much hopes their parents have got on them and study well...

Why am I writing about this???? well...its because I am an animal lover & i care for all the stray animals. Since I am in Kuantan, I have decided to put my priorities to care for the stray animals around Kuantan. Do you guys know that there is such a body called KARE handling stray issues in Kuantan? This organization is open to public, anyone can become a member, and meetings are held on first tuesday of every month. I am a member too..but I am kinda frusterated with the attitude people in Kuantan potrays...they are ignorant to the stray issue...in fact, they contribute to it knowingly or unknowingly. Ever wondered who is making gud money nowdays???? those involved in cosmetic, beauty, slimming and fashion….everything that has to do with enhancing and improving one’s natural look! As much as we need happiness in our daily family life, we also need some constructive arguments in order to sustain the bond. Many regards arguments as something bad should be avoided by all means…children should not argue with parents..wife should not argue with husband, siblings should not argue with each other etc…BUT Y?
