of raya mood and producing video

salam and hi to all,

the “raya” spirit is very high now that most of us has already went back home and there are only few peoples left in the class. they all went back home so that they could spend time with their family besides preparing for the BIG day. sadly, i was still here, the need to attend classes still buggering me with the responsibility to hold as student.

as the class looked empty, hence not much things were done except for the discussion for the video which we were required to do with our partner. me and name has agreed to change the topic to “WHAT’S UM TO YOU” since we thought that this topic is interesting and exciting rather than our previous topic. we had to change and start all over again, but i guess, this is not a problem for us since we ourselves willing to do it.

besides collecting materials and ideas for our very own video, we also brainstorm the idea a bit so that we can come out with a good one. naem reminded me not to forget to show our new draft to mdm foziah so that we could listen to her opinion. it was very important since her permission will determine where our video project would go ^_^

after we showed her our latest draft, she agreed and we felt very happy about it, she then decided to let us go back early at 11.30 am. we was very happy since some of us will go back to our hometown on that very evening.

before that, i want to wish all

A HAPPY HARI RAYA to all!

MAAF ZAHIR BATIN :)

i think that's all for now

till then,

salam and bye bye bye

it's video time! ^_^

salam and hi to all,

this is the 9th week and we still in Ramadhan mode. Raya is nearing and i can't wait for it to come. but, before that, need to settle down all my work here.

ok, enough about that. let us look on what we have done this time since it's a new week for us. before she started the class that day, at first, Mdm Poziah showed us various videos about Chun and Ella (her favourite Taiwanese actir and actress :P) and other interesting videos produced by her own friends and our senior from Cohort 3. they are very interesting and fun to be watched since they covered not only about education, but motivational spirit and interesting messages as well.

so, based on the video showed to us, she said that we need to create a video and we are free to use any subjects or topics as long as it does not go overboard and touches on sensitive issues. heh~ I AM VERY HAPPY upon hearing that we are going to produce a video according to our preferences ^_^

and for this particular task, we are required to do it in pair where i should be of a boy and a girl. why? so that the idea is wider and we could see from each other's perspectives so as to produce a good video! and i choose to pair with Naem. i haven't work with him yet, so i guess this would be a good chance for me to try.

she gave us time to discuss on the ideas on what we are going to do in our video and later, we need to show the draft to her for permission. at first, i need to admit that both of us, Naem and I were quite excited with the idea of producing video until we are a bit too imaginative at that time and wanted to do many impossible things. so, we scribbled down all our thoughts on the paper before show them to her. but, it struck to us that we couldn’t find a very interesting which could captivate other’s attention. so, we agreed that we show the idea to her first before make any decisions on it.

she gave us directions on how to create the story line and it help us to see better since we now have target on how to do the video. and after some consultations, she agreed with our idea and decide to give it a YES! i was very happy with it and i guess, one part is done and what’s left is the collecting of materials and producing them.

i guess, that’s all for now, and i will tell you later on what we are planning to do in our video.
till then, pen off and

salam and bye bye bye ! ^_^

A SIMPLE SMILE, A SCREAM INSIDE :)

salam and hi to all,

today i just want to share a poem which is really close to me. hope you all enjoy reading it!

by the way, read between the lines then you can understand the meaning of it ^_^

SO, ENJOY!!

There’s so much no one knows,
So much that no one sees,
About the way I feel inside
my thoughts and all my needs.

Maybe it’s that they don’t look,
Or the fact that I don’t show,
Either way, there are things inside
that no one seems to know.

I want to show the world,
I want everyone to see,
All the thoughts and the ideas that flow inside me,
Maybe you haven’t noticed or maybe you don’t dare
To find out who I am, to show me that you care.

I’m screaming on the inside,
A smile is what you see,
But I’m not content with the person I seem to be.

There’s a different person on the inside,
That I can’t seem to show,
But maybe if you took mine, that person you could know.

audio editing :)

salam and hi to all,

we meet again! and this time, it's RAMADHAN people! hehe..the feeling was quite different during this holy month and i should say that, everyone is competing with each other to do good deeds ...after all, it's holy month and this is the time for us to collect provision for hereafter ^_^

ok, enough about that. today, pn foziah did not seems very active as she does before and she told us to finish our own work before she started off with her lecture as she wanted to take a rest for a while...and i'm a happily blog-hoppers :)

the topic for today was quite interesting since it was related with songs! i'm sure everyone likes music and songs, aite? WE ALL DO ^_^
so, today we were taught to edit the audio in terms of noise, songs, instrumental music, talks and etc. and enhance it so that it will turn out to be superb! if we were creative enough, we are able to create a nice song and i'll try to make one =)

there are many softwares that can be used to edit audio such as Audacity, Sony SoundForge and even Movie Maker! some of these softwares are really fun since we can freely edit our own songs or sound files just how we want it to be! as we are future teachers who will be teaching 21st century kids later, we have to be really prepared so that we are able to deal with their needs and the upcoming challenges. hence, learning how to edit audio is one of the skills that we should have so that we are able to come up with our own songs or edit audio according to what we are planning to teach on that particular day.

on a final note, what we are learning now is to prepare us for the teaching tomorrow!
till then,


salam and bye bye bye ^_^

Ramadhan menjelma lagi :)

salam and hi to all,

today is the 6th day of fasting for Muslim all around the world and i'm very happy to admit that I AM A MUSLIM and I'M DOING WHAT MY RELIGION ASKED ME TO DO (HAPPILY)..
hehehe...sounds mcm arrogant skit kan? takpe..tak salah kalau saya nk menunjukkan kebanggaan saya tentang agama saya :) well, i'm sure anybody else are too..

oklah..this time nak lari sikit dari tulis reflection pasal kelas resources ni..heheh...sorry ma'am..just want to rant and shra something here...kan SHARING IS CARING ^^

masa berlalu dengan sangat2 cepat dan sedar tak sedar dah tiba semula Ramadhan yang telah setahun ditinggalkan...huh! time's flies very very very fast that now i just realized how many times have i been using recklessly! and i've done nothing good yet... this time is what we call "akhir zaman" so i guess "the call" is nearer and yet i do not have enough provision to be brought along together...in simple words, i do not have any "guarantor" yet[read between the lines, k :)]

Ramadhan is a holy month where this is the time which all the devils or satans will be tied and what's left is only angels..and this is the time where we are supposed to start to collect good deeds. i dont know whether i will be able to experience the coming Ramadhan or not..things can happened and we just pray for the best :) so, start to sow the seeds and collect fruits folk!

i think i wna t to stop here now and till then,

salam and bye bye bye..
till we meet again in other post ^^,

byeeeee~

holiday mode

salam and hi to all,

i'm in a middle of my holidays right now n it seems F-U-N so far! heh~ how on earth can someone did not agree on that. ^_^

our class for resources ended with quite a satisfaction[for me] since i think i've managed to complete these 6 earlier weeks without any major problems! YEAH! coming to class that morning was different from other days since i will be officially on holidays after the class ended. so, my mind was not really in class and i want to take a deepest apology from pn foziah if it ever happen to me that i did not really paid attention to her in class...hehehehe...SORRY MA'AM! =p

before she started the class, she asked us whether we have already knew about the e-book that we have to do from the other group or not and we said yes, we already knew it. of course the info about the e-book was long have been told by them since we practiced this culture called the 'sharing' community =p...hehe...don't worry ma'am, we are all sharing-caring person if its got to do with studies and all [for certain subjects n topics only] huhuhuhuhuhu ^_^

pn foziah started off her lecture with something regarding the e-book that we will have to do. there were many guidance and ideas that we can do to make our e-book more interesting and fun [and all that brings the same meaning!] and i was quite captivated by the idea that we have to develop an e-book for kids to be used in class and it can be anything- storybook, nursery rhymes, riddles, songs or anything and quoting pn foziah, the sky is the limit!

the e-book that we developed must suits with our target audience and that we have to be very careful when choosing the best pictures, font, font size, colours or templates to be inserted in the story t make it livelier and attractive enough for the children. once i got the picture on how it would be and the idea to do that, SNAP! i feel very excited and can't wait to do that! and the excitement to go home was like..go away for a moment..hehe...[a bit exaggeration here] =p

after the lecture, she gave us time to develop our own idea regarding the e-book thingy and we should show the idea first before we can go home.. OMG, this is really torturing me...and this made me have to 'dig' for my creativity again which is nowhere to be found! but at last, i managed to get the idea and showed it to her, at first she said that my story was quite constant without any climax and this will not attract students to read it further so i changed the idea a bit and luckily, she accepted it and asked me to proceed with the idea. i was so happy since now i can go home with a relieved face...heh~ and after that, the beginning of the development of the e-book...

i bet everyone is busy doing their e-ook and the video for technology class now and i just want to wish

ALL THE BEST, GUYS! WE CAN DO IT!

as usual, COHORT 4 WILL DO WONDERS!

till then,

salam and bye bye bye

p/s: before that, i just want to wish [wish lagi..heh~]

SELAMAT MENYAMBUT RAMDHAN AL-MUBARAK to pn foziah, my beloved cohortmates, friends, all lecturers and not forgetting, all readers!

HAVE A BLAST RAMADHAN THIS YEAR, MAY ALLAH BLESS

week 5

salam and hi to all,

pn foziah seems quite weak today when we arrived at class. she told us that it is because of diarrhea that she got two days before so she asked us not to make any noise or problems that can make her even sick! hehe...don't worry ma'am, we won't! ^^,

she started off with questions about our progression of the assignment given before give us new tasks which is to prepare teaching aids and materials to be used in classroom. next, she told us that we are going to learn about how to edit photo using FotoFX and Adobe Photoshop. upon hearing that, i was really excited since i have long for this for quite some time and lastly, i managed to learn it. i really wanted to know how to edit photo so that i will be able to "renew" some new photos that i have and make it special and rememberance. yeay!! ^^

fotofx provides the chances for us to try and explore it on our own so that we will be able to use it at its best. i only got the opportunity to try out this software since i did not bring my laptop to install the other softwares, however with only fotofx, i think many can be done with it, all you need is the willingness to try it out.

it was very interesting where some of my friends even cropped their pictures and paste it on their favourite actors or actresses' face. it was fun to see those different once you're done with it! i will share the photo that i've already edited in my next post, ok?

i think that's all for now, and till then

salam and bye bye bye
