mendisiplinkan bangsa?

i have a father, and he is a soldier (even though just wataniah). and as a soldier himself, he tend to be very strict to my siblings and me. first, i felt that he didn't love me at all, but i know why he do that later in my life.

every other religion teach how to do things right and doing a right thing. even when one have no believe in religion what so ever, human being still have conscience...and having conscience makes human know about what is wrong and what is right. when we was a kid, we always questioned why we get scold (or worse) when we returned late at home from the playground, when we always watching cartoons and not 'touching' the school books all day long. we were kids, we always enjoyed having fun. school books were the last thing we remember during weekends (for some of us).

but then, our parents always said that books is more important than doraemon or dragon ball, while we begged to differ. book not enjoyable compared to the latter.

that was our first encounter with the word 'discipline'. why it is so important? does conscience not enough? conscience come from discipline. the discipline come from ethics. who introduce ethics in this world? someone who was\is right enough to tell one is wrong and one is right, maybe?

discipline starts from home. it is the first education one has to endure, and that learning process will continue until the day we all die. maybe i'm more discipline than an older person but maybe a younger person is more discipline than i am. who knows? nowadays discipline is slowly eroding away from the society. individualism is taking place at pace. gone were the days when the older, wiser can give advises to the young generation without getting any harm. the usual words that came out from the mouth is "alah, awak pun bukan baik sangat nak tegur2 orang, macam bagus je".

the funny thing is, it is always not the best person who give the advises. i remember when i was about 9-10 years old or so, a 'mat pit' (that's a drug addict for u) told me never ever mingle with drugs, just like him. or else i will ended up like him.

getting advises or making yourself more discipline doesn't need to start with an older, wiser person. sometimes they don't even know what they are talking about. some counselors for me just talking trash, they just read by books and never experience it first hand. the best advises you can get, maybe from the person 'been there, done that'.

never afraid of getting comments or advises, it maybe helpful or it maybe dreadful. if you doubted the advises, still we have the conscience to determine whether the things\choices are right or wrong.

lastly..."betulkan yang biasa, biasakan yang betul"...i'm working on that, what say you?

'stupid' is a mean word...'stupidest'?~

ARGGGGGHHHHHH~ two papers down in my 'finale' exam and i didnt quite like it...i've study a lot just to sit there and wondering..."aku nak jawab ape ni?" not that i'm not studying, for the first time in my bloody life i've stayed up until the wee hours of the morning...still, the outcome wasnt really good...and i really hope things will turn out to be better at the end of the day...

then, it got me thinking..."who the hell came out with the examination idea?". i've done a little research that 'examination' (in academic world) starts when the first school came to life...thousands and thousands years ago, when the first academy was built during Roman Empire heydays. but then, there were no OMR papers, no study week, nothing. in fact, the examination is continous. from the first day you enrolled until you roll-out.

currently, the examination is like two or three hour at most, you spilled out what you have studied last night and TADAAA~....wait until the results come out.

for me, it's not right...this type of examinations only work for those who have photographical memory, or really really desperate...this sort of exams only encourage plagiarism, and people always targetting wrong people.

yesterday, i've sat my finance paper where a girl bring a host of formulas into exam hall...and the invigilator targetting my friend behind her...my friend wanna have a slice of info too,but the main sheep-headed moron is the girl...for me it's simple, if u dont know how to do it, just act like u dont know...never cheat.

continous valuations should replace the current scheme of exam...it is useless by the way to evaluate one's ability though...almost anyone can cheat.

sepak terajang dunia politik varsiti~

it's not that i'm soo lazy posting a new one lately, but i'm so busy right now...exams, thesis, VIVA, industrial training, job interview, new car, ungrateful friend stole my time of writing new post...well, i'm here now and this is my new post.

a fortnight ago it was an election day for all varsities students in Malaysia...the mass media coverage was quite astounding, some say. but for me that's not a polling day. just a mere formalities to see who will lead us for the next two semester. and the results too were predictable.

can u imagine the election that everyone already know the outcome? suspiciously intransparent should i say...and the night before that, the varsity staffs handed out the candidates u must choose for the forthcoming election? something fishy might happen...

that's why i said before, the election was just a formalities. The varsity have choose which one of the candidates that should lead the students and not the students themselves who choose their leaders...If UMS newly appointted MPP read this post, they must know that what i've said is true.

Few years back, i have give a thought of joining the election as a general candidate...but before i'm taking my application form, a good friend of mine said that 'don't bother joining the race, u'll lose before u know it'...

simply because the varsity have their own plan, their own set of 'leaders'...well, fair enough. but, thankfully i have friends in MPP and their mastermind in everything they wanna do is the varsities' student affairs divisions...what the hell?

they simply didnt do the job...just being scapegoat when things got ugly and being the one who get the praise when things were good. they dont fight for student rights, no need to fight because i can tell u what these leaders receive in return...

1. their PTPTN will not be blocked even their pointers are dreadful during their tenure.
2. no need to pay for varsity fee...two semester equals rm2500++
3. they can choose which room they wanna live in.
4. they will always get a room in their varsity lifetime.
5. they can go oversea for whatever trip, on students money, eventhough majority have dreadful command in english.
6. their indiscipline will go unpunished...

'leaders'? u tell me...
