#7: Top 5 Awesome Things...

My Top 5 Awesome Things...

  • Finally most wanted gadget in hand.


        I got my new gadget.. Its an iPhone4.. I waited for fortnight and its worth it... Its really intriguing because of the function as well as the looks.. Everyone thought that it cost me a fortune but I'd rather say quite a fortune and its worth it..!! The sleek physical really knocked out for me not to mention the function/apps, heaven..!!

        Totally AWESOME..!!

  • First time election

The election of Student Representatives was really nerve-wracking (though we're not the candidates but still we wanted the most reliable rep). Anyways, this was indeed, our very first election since we're merely 22 years old and the 'real' general election hasn't take place yet. We're really excited and the candidates that won are amongst the one that we “x”.


       We consider this AWESOME..!! since it was our first.

  • First time participate in Bowling tournament

Both of us never really thought of participating any competition not to mention tournament. Well, we signed up for it. Initially we just wanted to play, and then on the eve of the tournament the president talked to us and said they really counting on us, which makes is really freaked out... So, long story short, the first 2 sets we managed to conquered one of the topmost group but eventually the third set sets us back to the fifth spot..!! All in all, we really proud of ourself for that particular achievement (considering we just wanted to play around)...


       That we consider quite AWESOME...!!

  • Styled my niece hair inspired by Korean group
On the first day of school, my niece (she's a 7 year-old girl), she debuted a look from the Korean all-girls band, Girls' Generation aka SNSD courtesy of (none other than) ME, his beloved uncle... I was experimenting the looks since her mother (my sister) asked me to tied her hair ponytail. I remember the looks from one of the members, Sunny (pic) which is really cute by the way, so I tried my best as well as my logical mind to imitate the look and voilà! It worked..!!

The inspired korean girl group (SNSD)

     And that achievement was unexpectedly AWESOME...!!

  • Fast Talker, took my breath away.

I was raised as a normal-moderate speed talker. Then when I was in my high school era I met a girl who can talk quite fast (well, considering she talks faster than anyone of us)... After several years, I met another person, who is currently one of my dearest friend, he talks (I must admit) slightly faster than my previous friend. You know what, sometimes I don't even understand what on earth he/she try to say. The words came out was like as fast as a lightning, I think probably around 100 km/hr, and it really made me intrigued (but I acted cool, not that they know, I think).


And that's was freakishly AWESOME..!!


Kindly leave us comment and have a WONDERFUL day, readers..!!

#6: Students' Election

Election Season guys...!! A must-have great leadership...



       This season is flooding with elections regardless the scale small or big or internal or whatsoever due to the recent death news of both ADUN of Merlimau, Melaka as well as Kerdau, Pahang (politically speaking) not to mention UniKL MICET...!!! Well, lets focus on our internal election and let the bigger election to the higher or outer society to concern (not that we didn't concern okay!). Well, the topic was, student must vote during the “Students' Election” because... it is our rights.!! We have the very power to choose who's in and who's not in representing us as a student (and that's an opportunity for us!). The person chosen have to be very calibre, very reciable, outspoken, resourceful and most importantly is smart in anyways to preserve the students right which has been lately. Our voice should be heard through them as our middle party to the higher authority for better understanding in both ways/parties. Students needs better life as well as environment to study.

       Accompanied by this election, the leadership quality of the chosen ones can be polish so that a great administration/leadership can be carried out. Recently, the list of the winner/rep were unofficially announced (well, better said posted up the wall -no official announcement has yet to be made). Apparently, a few of the candidate that we “x” won the spot and we were quite relieved. As ones said “Great Leaders Are Not Born, They Are Made”...!!

Have a great day..!!

Cheers,
~xoxo~

#5: Great Leaders are not born, they are made..?

Our Thoughts on…

…Great Leader Are Not Born, They Are Made… Let me paraphrase it… Great Leader Are MADE, Not BORN... This is one of the most frequently asked questions in all leadership development.

To begin with, let's start with a definition of "leader". Leader is the person who leads or commands a group, organization, or country. Or there is a person, Dr. Paul Hersey, defines leadership as "working with and through others to achieve objectives." Given this definition, anyone in a position whose achievement requires the support of others can play the role of a leader.

There has been a debate for quite some time concerning the issue of what makes a great leader. This debate can be sum up into two schools of thought. One school proposes that leaders are a select of few people who are born with the unique set of skill and have recherché leadership abilities. Other school of thought proposes that leaders are made, that is they learn, grow and develop into great leaders through the books they read and the people they associate with.


There are many well-educated and motivated people who lack the knowledge of how to lead others. So they don’t assume leadership positions, or if they do, they don’t do very well in them. They and others too, assume that these individuals just weren’t born to be leaders.

Here are some tips we got from the internet on how to be a leader or polish one's skill as a leader.
  • Maintain absolute integrity. Leadership is a trust. If others don’t trust you completely, they will not follow you in every instance. Instead, they will try to decide each situation on its own merits, whether to trust you or not. If the environment you are in is relatively calm, you may be able to lead without too much difficulty. But if your situation requires you to make real demands on others, at a time when you must really depend on them, they will hesitate to support you. Then the lack of complete trust will be apparent and may well cause you to fail.
  • Know your stuff. If you are the leader, those that would follow you don’t care two straws about whether you are good at office politics or not. They want you to be competent and know what you are doing. That’s what counts for them. So, your office politicking may get you promoted, but it will not win the respect of those you want to follow you. Only what you know and what you can do will do that.
  • Declare your expectations. You can’t get there until you know where there is. Decide on your “there” and then continually promote your goals, objectives, and vision.
  • Show uncommon commitment. You can bet no one else is going to be committed to your goals if you aren’t.
  • Expect positive results. Winners expect to win and losers expect to lose. Vincent Lombardi, one of the greatest football coaches of all time said, “We never lose, but sometimes the clock runs out on us.” You can expect positive results and still not get exactly what you want. But, research demonstrates that those who “think positive” achieve more wins than losses and overall better results than those that don’t.
  • Put duty before self. As a leader, you have a duty to accomplish the mission you are assigned, and you have a duty to take care of those who follow you. Sometimes the mission must come first, sometimes your followers comes first. However, the interests of both must always come before the personal interests or well-being of the leader.
  • Get out in front. This law includes setting the example, and being where the action is. Don’t sit in an air-conditioned office making decisions and call that leadership. Go out and talk to your people. See what’s going on and be seen. That’s leadership!

    So do leaves us comment regarding our 'brainy' thoughts...!

#4: Birth Order Traits



Birth Order Traits..
Which one is you??






Birth Order can have a large impact on your life. At first it may seem abstract and unimaginable, but these birth order personalities can affect your job, family and basically your entire life.
Birth Order patterns are divided into 3 basic types, these are the first child, the last child and the middle child.


The First Born

Strongest Personality – First borns are usually the leaders. They usually have the characteristics and qualities that enable them to make decisions easily. This maybe due to the special attention they receive since they are the first, and parents would be very excited with them.
Family Minded – First borns take the position of their parents when they are not around, making them the decision makers. They would then think of the family as their own, thus they are protective and responsible for their siblings. They are unselfish and caring by nature.

The Middle Child

Peace keepers – Middle children are peacekeepers by default. They are the mediators between the siblings. They are sometimes associated as “people pleasers” due to their weak personalities, but not all of them have this characteristic.
Attention Getter – By being born at the middle, middle children do not receive much attention. This causes them to get attention whenever they can through any means possible, so often they become the black sheep of the family. Lack of attention can cause a chain reaction making them lose confidence, friends and so on.

The Last Born

Smartest – By being the last, they have seen the rights and wrongs of their siblings, making them the smartest. Often, the youngest will be exposed to matters between their siblings which are older, thus making them a bit mature for their age.
Spoiled – By this time, the parents are tired of their children. Most of their energies in disciplining the children have been used up, thus having none for the youngest. Because of this, the child becomes accustomed to no discipline at all, making them spoiled and hard headed.

#3: Monetary incentives for the KP2 students?

Salam. 
For topic today, "Do you think we should give monetary incentives to the KP2 students to motivate them  to get better grades?". Maybe lots of people disagree to give monetary incentive for KP2. But me I think we should give monetary incentive to motivate them because if students get paid, dropout rates will be lower. It would make others do better in university by giving them a reward. When we gave money, the KP2 student have desired to study, more concentration in class.It also motivate student to study hard. Like old Malay adage " Dimana ada kemahuan, disitu ada jalan".


In my opinion,we should propose a reward system based on cash which will motivate them to earn good grades, which should be more than enough to allow them to graduate. The system will force students to try their best in order to get the reward. so, the KP2 student should use the money in good ways like buy new books for revision.I believe that it is for three reasons. The first reason is that money has always worked well as an incentive no matter the task. The second reason is that these incentives are currently working and seem to be helping KP2 students study more. The final reason is that KP2 students are able to immediately see the efforts of their hard work .



The use of monetary incentives to improve student performance is common in many countries.For example, in the United States, following the “Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally”(HOPE) program implemented in Georgia, many others States have introduced analogous scholarship programs  in the United Kingdom the program Education Maintenance Allowance confers to students from low income families financial rewards based on their school performance in Colombia the program PACES (Programa de Ampliaciòn de Cobertura de Educaciòn Secundaria) assigned vouchers to secondary school students in relation to their performanc.


In conclusion,  the money was a very useful and immediate way for the KP2 student to see their hard work, use the money for educational purposes, and learn life lessons. I believe this idea of paying KP2 students to score well is a brilliant idea that actually works. I hope to see more university in the future using this creative system.
