Today is wonderful day because none of class at early morning. I go to cyber PTSL to do my LEI quiz with Tan by motorcycles. I and Tan go library first before go to cyber PTSL. When I entering the cyber PTSL, I found a lot of people waiting for doing the quiz. After that, I realized that our set for foundation is combining with other set. This caused some of us didn’t enough place to do for our quiz so we are enforced to share one computer by two people. I can’t do it faster because I not familiar to do. The quiz included listening and comprehension part. I leaved the cyber although I only finish a few of question.

II am a student at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. After my classes at my University I like study at home. After I study one or two hour, I will take a short break. I seldom study with my friends because I can’t concentrate my studies at all. I prefer to study alone. Sometimes, I prefer to study at night because weather is cold. I usually make notes when I study. It helps me easy to find the key works when I study. In a week I think I study about 7 to 10 hour. At the beginning of every week I make a study plan for the whole week. I must study hard to obtain excellent result.

Hello, Students!

Welcome to your Foundation English 2008 (Set 5) class blog! First of all, I'd like to thank Hau for helping to set up our class blog. The purpose of this class blog is for students to post their writing assignment (earlier completed in the exercise book). This class blog is also for students to share their thoughts, journal entries, class activities, pictures, etc.

Don't forget to label your writing assignment according to chapter, exercise number, or page number.

It is advisable for you to first of all save your writing assignment in MSWord, and then copy and paste to the "write blog space." This is to avoid frustration when the post is lost in cyberspace en route to its publication.
HAVE FUN!
-Madam Haslina-
