Warcraft III

Frozen Throne!
Yeahh... aku taktau kenapa aku sudah ketagih dengan game ni. Gian tul tak dapat main. Semuanya gara-gara rakan sepejabat yang sibuk berperang di sini. Aku yang menjadi satu-satunya spesis perempuan di ofis ni pun dah kemaruk. Dapat pulak kawan aku ni menggalakkan aku main sekali. Okla aku join je tapi aku duduk belakang nampak musuh aku lari dulu panggil askar hahaha.. itu je la keroje aku.

Aku ambil langkah drastik dengan menginstall game ni di rumah. Tapi malang sekali, pc aku mati setiap kali aku cuba nak main game ni. Padahal bila aku main kat ofis ok je? Nampaknya kat ofis ajelah aku lepaskan gian aku fire askar2 Scourge ni.

Kami sanggup makan tengahari lambat utk battle. Dan ada antara rakan ofis yang sanggup pulang lewat untuk menyertai misi hehehe.. parah.. parah. Hari ni aku kena balik awal, mak aku nak datang. Hmm.. masak je lah apa yg patut. Nasib baik game ni tak boleh dimainkan kat pc kat rumah tu, kalau tak tentu aku mengalami sindrom ketagih malam kang..

Ok.. I had posted a script for our Public Speaking presentation. I can't remember whether I had written it here that we didn't manage to put up the play. Oh yeah.. I wrote that already. Actually, I had Plan B, if in case we couldn't do the play. The Plan B was that I would do the presentation alone. Well, I'm prefer to stand up alone on the stage rather than singing in a group. I'd been in that situation and I really felt stupid haha..

So here it goes, a poem that I wrote about Public Speaking. As usual, you are free to recite the poem but don't forget to give me the credits :D

By the way, I forgot to tell you that finally, we did 2 in 1 presentation. Poem recital in acting, I might say. There were three of us. One of us really couldn't practise a thing, so she acted as a successful executive with zero ability in public speaking. Another guy wrote his own poem so he recited his. His poem was about our experience in Public Speaking class which the objective was to persuade the executive to join Public Speaking class in order to resolve her problem. Then, lastly it was my turn to recite my own poem to explain to the executive what Public Speaking is all about. Finally, we did a prank where the girl call the English For Public Courses Coordinator and she put on the speaker haha.. everybody laughed at the Coordinator as she sounded so confused. And for that hardwork (I don't know anybody else but I found myself really worked hard on this presentation), we got 4th place out of 8 presentations. I was satisfied eventhough we didn't get the best 3 places but at least we got our own souvenir not like other group, they had to share (and how would they do that?).

Anyway, just enjoy reading the poem below...

PS

Public Speaking
Is an art of an act

Unleash your talent
And don’t be scared

Be organized
Without beating around the bush

Let the world understand
What you’re trying to introduce

Impromptu, persuasive,
Informative and all speeches

Confidence and calmness
Will defeat your nervousness

Sell your idea
And share your knowledge

Practice your speeches…
Hey…It can be a hedge

Express your greatness
In your best appearance

Articulation and pronunciation
Making them right for the language perfection

Keep the pace…
And pause when you need

Involve your audience
And you’ll make them grin

Never tell lies
Always be honest

Gesture and facial expression
Must be right at the moment

PS for workers, PS for employers
PS for all and the entire world
PS for PEACE …and humanities…

Melayu

Pengurus kami menghantar e-mail yang mengandungi puisi berikut.

Di mana boleh cari ramai Melayu
Pastinya di Kelantan dan Terengganu
Dan juga di pasar malam dan pasar minggu
Di Akademi Fantasia dan Pesta Lagu
Di Jom Heboh orang Melayu berpusu-pusu
Di Sungai Buloh, pusat pemulihan, dulu di Pudu
Dan di jalan, lumba haram, rempit tak berlampu
Dan di selekoh duit rasuah depa pun sapu
Di pusat serenti akibat ketagih dadah dan candu
Di malam kemerdekaan dan malam tahun baru
Terkinja-kinja best giler menari macam hantu


Apa hobi orang Melayu
Terkenal dengan budaya malas dan lesu
Berlepak buang masa tak jemu-jemu
Atau baca majalah Mastika, Metro pasal cerita hantu
Tengok telenovela dari Filipina dan Peru
Berpusu-pusu pergi tengok pamiran hantu
Sambil makan junk food, kuaci dan muruku
Sibuk bercerita tentang Datuk K dapat bini baru
Apa pakaian Siti nak pakai itu yang nak tahu
Mana tak gendut berpenyakit selalu
Kalau nak berlagak melayu masih nombor satu
Asal bergaya sanggup makan nasi dan tofu


Boleh tak jumpa mereka di kedai buku
Atau di perpustakaan dan majlis ilmu
Atau ambil kelas kemahiran di hujung minggu
Ada tapi kurang sangat mereka di situ
Kenapa melayu jadi begitu
Nak salahkan siapa ibubapa atau guru
Pemimpin negara atau raja dulu-dulu
Ayat lazim di mulut ialah Melayu malas selalu
Nak harap Kerajaan saja membantu
Terutama sekali kontraktor kelas satu
Tak habis-habis gaduh nak jatuh siapa dulu
Pasal jambatan senggek [sic] atau siapa dia penghulu
Dan suka sanggat dengan budaya ampu mengampu


Sampai bila kita nak tunggu
Bangsa Melayu jadi bangsa yang maju
BO leh! dengan beberapa syarat tertentu
Pertama dengan banyak menguasai ilmu
Kata nabi ikutlah Quran dan sunnah ku
AlQuran yang diturunkan 1400 tahun dahulu
Tapi apa yang kita tahu, cuma baca bila nak halau hantu
