meMorY Cell?

Yesterday, went to Biology tuition. Mr Sundrram gave us some tips on memorizing facts. STPM is a paper which needs a lot of memory work. Almost every subject, except for MUET hehehe... He told us that when we learn something new, our brain will store the data in a cell, he didn't mentioned what cell. For exmple, when we learn round, a cell will store the information about round. Then, when we saw the moon, moon is round, another cell will store information about the moon and make a connection with the cell that contains the round information. As we learn more and more things that are round in shape, the cell build more connections and it will become stronger and stronger. Strong enough for you to remember round in your whole life. The cell won't just disappear like that. When we learn something during our lessons, we HAVE TO revise at home, as we tend to forget almost 50% of what we had learnt hours ago in within 24 hours. So, as we revise, the cell builds connections. Repeat the subject twice, trice and as many time as possible, you will remember it no matter what happened. I know it is hard to do that, because not all are hardworking hahahaha....including Mr. Sundrram, so, he gave us a good idea. We just have to tell our mothers what we've learnt today when we saw our mothers, tell the same thing to our father when we saw our fathers, and repeat it again to our siblings, tell the passenger next to us when we are on a bus ride................ Maybe my family and friends will think that I'm a freak when I do that, but, what to do, I still have to do it for the sake of getting 4.0 hehehehehehehe...

For those who read this post, don't be afraid when I start to tell you something about Biology/Chemistry/Pengajian Am k, I'm very normal and healthy....

God really planned everything...

Last week, before my maths exam, I was chit-chating with my friends coz I already finish revising hehehe... But then, I saw See Ying reading the trigo formulae so I read also. I hate trigo but I try my best to memorize them. I didn't expect much from that coz it's like 5 minutes before the exam. Then during the exam, I'm stuck in a question and suddenly a trigo formula came to my mind! Hahahaha....The most happiest thing was I can remember the formula! I was so happy after the test coz I knew how to do all the questions hahahaha.... Monday, Pn. Tew gave back our papers, and you what? I get 100% HAHAHAHAAHA.. Although it was just a monthly test and a very easy paper, I still get 100%, and I never get 100% for a very long time... Really thanked God for teh formulae hehehehe.... Although I get 100% this time, I won't be lazy doing my maths homework just because I get good results this time!

GOD U NOE WHAT'S BEST FOR ME!!

International Sports A Waste of Resources??

This is the debate topic in my school today, STAR vs ACS. I was on duty today, so I get to listen to the whole debate from the beginning till the end hahahaha....

Is international sports a waste of resources? I think it depends on which resources you are reffering to. For example the Olympic Game in Beijing last year. In my opinion, they waste a lot of money for the fireworks. It is undenyable that it was really beautiful, but they have to spend a lot to manufacture the firecrackers and shooting bullets to the sky to prevent large clouds so that it won't rain on the big day. Furthermore, they were polluting the air. Beijing is already a polluted area, they spent so much money to purify the air in Beijing and yet they polluted it again by shooting millions of fireworks into the sky.

My school was the opposition and I think how they define waste was very good. Waste means something that you can't get anything back from it. Although China spent a lot of money in making this Olympic a success, the amount of money they earned was much more than the amount they have spent. They get people all over the world to know them and they have created another place for tourists to visit. So, Olympic did gave them some advantages. As a reslut, it was not a total waste.

Well, at the end, my school won and the third speaker from my school Ng Wee Jin won as the best speaker. So, ACSs, work harder next time hahahahaha...
