How To Become An Excellent Student

Be prepared. Bring everything you need with you to class. It would be a good idea to bring books, folders, pens, pencils, homework, review sheets and anything else you need.

Ask a parent or older sibling to look over your notes and create a mini-test for you three days prior to your test. Study before the night of your test.

Get organized. Staying organized in school is extremely important. If you are organized, then you are one step ahead in being successful. Keep a folder for each subject, that means that you put your math papers in your math folder, your Language Arts papers in your Language Arts folder, your science papers in your science folder, and so on. To make this easier, use color codes or label your folders.

  Review your notes when you have free time.

Take some time to write some problems up, or you could ask someone to write them for you. Just remember, it doesn't hurt to go over what you have learned.

Do your homework. Teachers give you homework for a reason. It is to review what you have learned that day. Take advantage of your free time. Do your homework on the way home from school and in any spare time. Unless you have a kind of school that gives you homework for reasonability and not to review. But most schools have it to review. Do as much at school as you can; you have the teacher there in case you need help. Make sure not to rush on your homework, to check over it, and to be neat. If you really want to be a successful student, you should know right from the beginning when you want to be great at anything, and when you have to put up with things that just don't seem fair. Doing your homework is not a big deal. Remember, homework can also help you develop good habits and attitudes. Always do what is asked of you

Study. It is advised to start studying at least a few days before a test. Make astudy schedule. If an extracurricular activity gets in the way of your studying, tell the person in charge of that certain event that you will not be able to attend that event, or you will have to leave early. However, there will be certain situations where you willhave to attend. In this kind of situation, you will just have to study another day. This is where your study schedule comes in. Write out a schedule of the week of your test and find your free time. Always remember, use your time wisely. Study as if you are motivated for the outcome of your hard work.

Start to read a little more. If you are not already a reader, start at your level and work your way up. You may not know this, but by reading challenging and difficult books, you can expand your vocabulary.

Don't lose your cool if you're stuck. Just focus on your work and you'll succeed.

Create mind maps. Use of mind maps can be helpful for understanding hard topics.

Don't put off work for later. Make a daily routine for yourself, it really works. Keep all of your electronics such as your phone, iPod and laptop away from you as these cause distraction. When you come home from school, read through what the teacher had taught in class that day and practice a few math problems to be right on top.

Like all exceptionally great students, you must pay attention. When a teacher is giving a lesson, take notes and if you don't understand something, raise your hand and ask questions. The more questions you ask, the smarter you'll get, believe it or not. By passing notes and talking to friends, you won't learn anything, so pay close attention!

13 Jam A380 & The Wedding Breaker - Evelyn Rose

13 jam di dalam penerbangan ke London menaiki MAS A380, takdir menemukan HANA SOFEA dan Syed HAYDAR, jejaka idamannya. Mencipta kenangan terindah di langit biru.

Mereka bergelar kekasih kayangan untuk empat jam, menari tango bersama, menjelajah seluruh pesawat bersama, merasai enaknya Caramel Latte bersama... Tap i tatkala MAS A380 mencecah lantai bumi,, segalanya pergi bagai wap di udara.

"Hana, thank you for last night... but i can't have cocaine all the time."- SYED HAYDAR

Melihatkan sendiri kemesraan SYED HAYDAR dan kekasih realitinya, si model jelita membangkitkanHANA SOFEA daripada mimpi indah.

Di kota London, A380 juga akhirnya menerbangkan HANA SOFEA kepada FAWWAZ HUSSAINI, jutawan kacukan Melayu-Inggeris-Arab. Tanpa sebarang sebab, Emmel, anak angkat Fawwaz menyangkakan Hana Sofea sebagai ibunya.

"My daughter likes you. If you're willing to let her call you mommy... i will pay you fifty buck per hour..."-FAWWAZ HUSSAINI

"Dapat hadiah tak?" -HANA SOFEA

"A pink Audi TT, is that okay?"-FAWWAZ HUSSAINI

"Saya nak Audi TT yang latest version aje. yang lain saya tak nak."-HANA SOFEA

Hadirnya HANA SOFEA menghiasi kehidupan mereka sekeluarga bagaikan indahnya bunga popi mekar, munculnya sang jutawan bermata ambar yang kuat pegangan agamanya itu dalam hidup Hana Sofea pula bagai menyedarkan HANA SOFEA tentang kasih sayang Tuhan. Dan saat semuanya bagaikan baru bermula, SYED HAYDAR datang menuntut sebuah cinta...

“Saya rindu awak, Hana… Jangan cakap awak dah kahwin dan budak ni anak tiri awak, Hana.” – SYED HAYDAR

Adakah  mimpi  akan  kekal  sebagai  mimpi  setelah  waktu  berlalu  dan  hari  berganti?

Saya sangat menyukai novel tulisan Evelyn Rose. Beliau merupakan novelis The Wedding Breaker berasal dari Kelantan. Beliau ialah PhD researcher di United Kingdom, Graduated Master Engineering in Microelectronic di UK. Beliau bekerja sebagai PTD dan terlibat dalam bidang keusahawanan. 

Setiap penulisan Evelyn Rose mempunyai ilmu atau mesej yang cuba disampaikan. Beliau mampu memberi kesan positif kepada pembaca tanpa mengira kaum atau bangsa. Sebagai contoh, watak Ariana Rose di dalam novel The Wedding Breaker. Watak Ariana digambarkan sebagai seorang yang sangat tabah setelah menghadapi pelbagai rintangan dan cabaran. Walaupun pernah dilanda peristiwa hitam, Ariana bangun dan meneruskan semula hidupnya tanpa berpaling ke belakang. Ia menunjukkan sepatutnya kita tidak mudah berputus asa setelah menghadapi kegagalan.

“Saya memohon maaf kerana mengganggu majlis kalian. Tetapi sebelum Tengku Juwita bernikah dengan Tengku Adam, dia wajar mengetahui siapa bakal suaminya yang sebenar...” - Ariana Rose

Ariana Rose. Kehadirannya menyebabkan majlis pernikahan itu terbatal. Disebabkan gadis itu jugalah, reputasi dan status diri bekas pengantin lelaki itu menjunam jatuh di mata masyarakat. Siapa sebenarnya dia? Apa tujuannya dan siapa yang menghantarnya untuk merosakkan majlis pernikahan itu? Tak kira, dia akan menyiasatnya juga!

Akhirnya Ariana Rose terpaksa akur dengan balasan yang perlu diterimanya akibat perbuatannya itu. Semenjak bertemu dengan lelaki itu, banyak peristiwa yang tak terjangka berlaku dalam hidupnya.

“What’s so funny?”

“Talking to me?”

“Nah… just talking to the lizard. See… there… we were talking just now. I know you won’t be able to understand the lizard’s language.”

Tapi kenapa setelah berlari sejauh ini, lelaki itu masih ditemuinya? Setelah dia berusaha melupakan semua kenangan itu, kenapa lelaki itu kembali meruntuhkan azam dan semangatnya? Kenapa mesti ada nama itu dalam kamus hidupnya?!

“I’m gonna miss you… I’d rather stay by your side. Always.”

“Sayang kat abang rupa-rupanya ya?”

“Mestilah, you are my bubbly boo and a naughty one too.”

Selama ini sudah banyak perempuan yang lebih cantik daripada dia hadir dalam hidup Tengku Adam Kamil. Tapi kenapa gadis itu juga yang melekat dalam hati dan ingatannya? Adakah itu petanda yang dia memang ditakdirkan untuk dirinya?

“Satu aje kesalahan awak, Ariana... Awak dah curi hati saya.” – Tengku Adam Kamil

My Secondary School Life....

After a while, I want to start blogging again. Today, I wanted to share about my secondary school life. The story started when I entered SMK Sultan Badlishah, Kulim for a first time. It was on 1st January 2011. At that time, I felt very nervous and scared because I will be in one of the excellent school in Kedah.

Point of view from the field at SMK Sultan Badlishah, Kulim.

I was enroll in 1A7. One of my classmates from that class was my classmates since I was in standard four. At there, I made friends with many friends from all over Kulim district. I feel very blessed because I meet with such good friends, Like Hidayah, Anis, Zulaika, Farrah, Aida, Noraini (Sometimes I called her Dorai), Hani, Aimi and others. We were so close to each other. Sometimes, when teacher not in class, we will be sitting in group and chit-chat with each others. All of us were put in the same class until form 3. After PMR, Hidayah had a chance to further her study at MRSM Taiping. While the others stayed in SMK Sultan Badlishah and we were put in different class. I was put in 4SC2 because I took Account as my elective subject. Sometimes, when I was in 4SC2 I always thought about my old class. I want my old class with my bff. 

My memory with my bff. The picture was taken when we were in form 2.

I had a great time there. I really hope that our friendship will last until Jannah. Insyaallah. Here's the story about my secondary school life. Thank you, bye!!!!
