A good life has meaning. Agree or Disagree?

I think that it depends on what you think. If your religious you might think that god sent you to this world because you deserve to live. And some might think that they have no life, and commit suicide. This occasion usually happens when there is a important loss in their life. But in my opinion i think that a good life has a meaning. You may be poor with no toys an lastest equipment, but you may still have a believe that you have a meaning. To me everyone one has a meaning and should not be put down, i simply think that way because i am religious. I may not be cool and not be living in a mansion but i am happy of what i have. Here is a quote "You only realize what you have once you lose it. And once you get it back it's importance is once again forgotten. That's why living with lost has a great importance" . I think that this quote is really good. I also think that anyone that has a job is important. Suppose your a teacher you teach people and give them knowledge so that they can live on, knowledge is part of maintaining your life. And even If your a farmer you help people survive by selling plants. And a slight job like being a magician ,entertains people for them to have happiness in their life. And players encourage others to play the sport which they do. And this cycle goes on and on. Everyone has a meaning in life. If your sprite tries to put you down. Seize it raise your hope and stand proud. With these feeling you will live a good life!

This i belive reflection - 3

My 3 that i will reflect on

Creating Our Own Happiness

Wayne Coyne - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
As heard on NPR’s Morning Edition, February 26, 2007

Wayne Coyne is singer and guitarist for The Flaming Lips, an indie-rock band he founded. Coyne believes happiness isn’t a cosmic coincidence, but something we have the power to make within ourselves.






My Parents as Friends

Bhavani G. Murugesan - Sacramento, California
As heard on The Bob Edwards Show, October 28, 2011

Bhavani Murugesan says the two years she lived with her parents after college and law school were better than therapy. She believes that time together allowed her to appreciate her parents not just as father and mother, but as individuals and as friends.





And i also will reflect on this essay http://thisibelieve.org/essay/91684/



These interest me so much because of what they believed. To me family is number 1 in my life more than anything in the universe. Especially your mother. The two i took was mostly about family although in my opinion i dont agree on the second one "Parents as friends". I think that your family is more important than your friends, you can live without friends but not without family. On the first one, i agree to Wayne Colyne about happiness. In that speech he talks about him envying 2 poor children on a winter night when he is in a warm with a nice jacket. He envy's them because they were laughing and he taught to himself that we must create our own happiness. He even made a song about it. The last one was about an essay about a mothers hand Karisa talks about her mothers touch to her and i totally agree on what she wrote. And ill probably do the same. Plzz take your time to read and watch all 3! its worth of your time!

My Learning Profile K for "Kool"

I learn best when...

I think i learn best when i am in a quiet area and sit on the left side of the classroom, which i am currently am. I am a gestalt learner, and i also think logically but my profile is K. I process from whole pieces. I learn better with the whole picture. I also like it when im surrounded with my friends so i can also have some fun while learning.


I need to...

be focussed on my work siting down in a quite environment and avoiding stress that will afftect my grade. And i agree to that myself because when my friends and i played tag and I was the tagger and that got me so mad and stressed so in class i didn't do very well.I also need to balance my art,music movement and interpersonal skills with cognitive endeavors in linguistics and mathematics.



The strategies that would help me in my learning....

To sit on the left side of the class room, not facing the window in a quite area. And also i need to improve my speaking to people and expressing myself well. If the teacher reads out loud it may help me. I also have to follow steps in class not chose my own steps i want to do.

I would like my teacher to know ....

That i would like it in class that we get to choose our own partners and choose seats. I also want them to know that they should be more patience with me. And i would like them to teach visually and make us doing hands on work more than writing. I would also like my teacher to choose me often, when i raise my hand because some teachers i know pick the same person over and over again which makes me feel excluded. I also want my teacher to give me special support since im in core support, and give me support especially whens there is a test or quiz coming up. I would like my teachers not to be strict and instead be friendly, and in class maybe put up some videos since that helped me soo much on our DBQ test about Icarus and Daedales. I want my teachers to help me when someone is being mean to me and bullying me, since sometimes i see my teacher just gazing into the situation not really helping. I hope my teachers are aware with this :)

The END IS NEAR!!! :O

The end of my grade 6 year is near. During this year we have doing so many assignments that even i cant count..... But this specific assignment i am proud of. My lit circles. Although this was a very challenging but i am proud that i have gone through doing them. This had made me gown a lot. Rather than wining an complaining of not doing liture circles I do them.


The greatest challenges was managing time for doing homework. I mean everyday there is homework, and each of the homework is due the next day. But luckily we have one day to finish it. Also doing liture circles were hard. Especially thinking about questions. Aslo doing some passages were hard too. I mostly had trouble on questions and passages. But reflecting on my growth, I am better now in my writing i know am better at organizing paragraphs and also great at using high vocabulary.

To evaluate myself about my work habbits I would give myself a "Satisfactory". Since sometimes I don't like the assighments that we have to do and also some times i try my best on the assignments I like. but if the assighment is too hard or confusing or borng I done actully try my best. Also sometimes I forget to look on the bord and its says "BRING HISTORY BOOK", and I don't bring it. Thats why I give myself a "Satisfactory". MY effort fo work depends if I like the work then i will push it to the limits like my movie trailer that i have done i liked my movie trailer, but not so much as for the lit circles.

Based upon my goals for 7th grade I would like to improve my grades to a A+. I also plan to make my binder organized. I would like my teachers to know that I will really miss them and their teaching style and also I want them to know that this year has been great and I wish you guys were my 7th grade teachers!. I loved doing the movie trailer it is really fun. I like making movies it one of my most common hobbies. I wish i could spent more time on my lit circles. My words of wisdom to the class of 2018 is " Life gets more challenging so, as work".

White Mountains Letter

"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5594134603721068114" />

















A letter to the citizens of Wherton and To Wills family.

Dear mom, and the citizens of Wherton. After months I have made my journey to the White Mountains along with my fellow friends Henry and Zhanpole we call him "Beanpole" due to Henrys mispronunciation. I headed to the White Mountains because thats the only place where the Tripod wont come. On our journey we stopped at the Castle of the Red Tower and the City Of Ancients. I think it was the right choice to leave, I am still feared of being capped and I dont want to end up like my best friend Jack. I have learned that many people are looking forward to being capped even Elosie..... Elosie is one of my best friends I have met on my journey.

I insisted that she follow me and Beanpole and Henry sadly, she didn't want to come with us she wanted to serve te Tripods. We will someday destroy the tripods since I have destroyed 3 of them, and we will once again live haply I will get my revenge. By the way I got hurt on the journey more than 2 times but please do not worry I am fine now. Personally I feel bad living you I know I will be capped if I stay there with you guys and I do not wish that to happen. Well I guess my ink is running out, I write to you again sometime.




Bp # 4 what does this mean on page 111 white mountains?






"The bitter thing was all the spirit, all the gallantry, was wasted. For even more than inferiors, they accepted and looked forward to being Capped. It was a part of becoming a knight, or of turning from a girl to lady. Thinking of this, I saw how good things could be meaningless in isolation".
To everyone expect Will, Henry and Beanpole, people think being capped is cool and makes you grow up what made me think that was when the quote mentioned "It was a part of becoming a knight, or of turning from a girl to lady". Since "girl" is a mentioned for young females and " Lady is mentioned for gown up that have surpassed being a girl. Also " For even more than inferiors, they accepted and looked forward to being Capped". This means that Will thinks that, all the time he spent in his past was wasted since he eventually got capped. This is what I think of this quote. I have learned that freedom means tat you are not controlled by anyone and you get to do what you want in your life. Come to think of it I think i am not seeking for any freedom. I am not really controlled by someone i have freedom in my school and at home as well.

The Castle of the Red Tower

Tripods control humans by capping them. The evidence is on pg 31 " But you have been capped"!
On their destination to the white mountains they stop by the castle of the red tower. Wills felt excited to be capped but when Ozymandias told Will the truth about capping he wanted to run away. Later, he meets with Henry that company Will then, they meet "Beanpole" (Zhanpole). Zhanpole told Will that in the White Mountains no Tripods will be there. But later on in the book Will wants to be capped so he could sat with Elosie. But then they have a fight and Will continues on his journey.

How will Beanpole help Will and Henry on their journey to the White Mountains ?

Who is Zhanpole? Zhanpole is a unusual charter that wears glasses and speaks english. He is about to join Will and Henry's journey to the white mountains. Will and Henry call Zhanpole "Beanpole".
I think when Henry and Will meet Zhanpole (beanpole) is important since When Will asked whether there was a place that the Tripods wont search, he remarked "the mountains". Not only that he knows where the tripods wont seacrh, he also knew the way to the mountains.I think Zhanpole will be easy to get along with later in the book since his real name is Zhanpole but then Henry nicknamed him beanpole and he didnt get mad at all and thats why i thnk it easy to get along with. This also gets the reader hooked up by making Wills journey start. And also Zhanpole cooks food for them.

White Mountains reflection -How is Will like me???

When Will ran away in fear of Henry, his action reminds me of myself. My connection is when Will got mad at Henry for scaring him. My friend and I were having a play date and my mom was out and only my friend, my maid and I were at home. My maid was upstairs and my friend and I started playing. Suddenly we heard someone come in and we started hiding to take cover and then it turned out that it was my mom who came in. This reminded me of how Will was like me. Another time, near the corridor outside the science class, my classmates and I started chatting very loudly. Then we started playing with a student's ball. In other words, we were misbehaving. We continued while waiting for the teacher to arrive. I was talking and talking and then all of a sudden someone opened the door! We all started to quiet down and sat on top of the cubby and started preparing for class on a count of 3 ( 123!) However, it turned up to be a student who used the back way. I got so mad like Will and this shows how Will is like me.

Kuala Lumpur Reflection









This is the flag of Kuala Lumpur. It is slightly different than the Malaysian flag. I did a presentation on Kuala Lumpur since that is my birth place and the only place I know much about.

My believes about the presentation are that I did well in finding the images and sorting them out as well as writing the text using interesting vocabulary. I think I performed well since I spoke loudly, had some eye contact and my pronunciation was quite clear. When I showed the location map, I think it was creative to first show a map of Kuala Lumpur, then a map of where Kuala Lumpur was located in Malaysia. As for the other graphics, I carefully chose pictures including the different races in Malaysia and the Gombak and Klang rivers to highlight my points. In the very first slide, I showed the flag of Kuala Lumpur flag to capture audience interest.

In the future, I would not like to be absent because then I would have limited time to complete my school work. In looking back at my project, I think I could have put in more images. I was unsuccessful in including music and need to learn how to do this. Although I can vividly recall being pretty organized for the oral presentation, it could have been better if I added my own words instead of reading off the screen most of the time. In future presentations, I need to remind myself about all these importants factors.

I learned a lot about my country. For example, I never knew Kuala Lumpur was famous for processing tin-ore and that that the city grew around the Klang and Gombak rivers which were sources of water and transport. I think that YOU should visit Kuala Lumpur which is now a popular business center. Now I understand why there are so many races living in Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia. I like my classmates' presentations too especially Alex' presentation because he used his voice well and the slides were neat. From all the presentations, I learned about the history of cities, population and locations that we learned in class.

I personally think that my presentation was awesome! However, my performance could have been better. Although I put in a lot of effort in doing the slides, I was quite nervous when I presented. I should be more confident and less nervous. Secondly, I need to show my excitement with some slides by changing my voice and including some actions so that the audience is always entertained.

    My Learning Profile!!! My mind my style and etc!!!!!






    My learning profile K says that I learn best when doing it. And i also learn best if I'm not stressed.  I also try harder if someones supports me when i'm there. And i agree to that myself because when my friends and i played tag and I was the tagger and that got me so mad and stressed so in class i didn't do very well.




    I need to be encouraged to work need communicate the details. And i need to sit at the front row so that i can listen well. And i also need to not be so stressed out or else it will effect me. And if i read out loud it may help me.


    And the strategies that would help me in my learning are reading out loud and getting to work on being logic as well. And drawing,writing with my non- dominant hand will help. I also need to balance my art,music movement and interpersonal skills with cognitive endeavors in linguistics and mathematics.

    And I would like my teachers to know that I'm a gestalt and i don't like  if you go so strict on me. And i like teachers who don't get so easily angry and i know i also need to take some responsibility as well. And I would like my teacher to know that not to push me to hard. And also i would like my teacher to chose partners since when Its group work no on ever comes to me to be partners and when i go and find partners everyone already has partners or they make a excuse.And that really annoys me. And give more time limits to do our work. And when i raise my hand up please pick me because I don't really raise my hand up for a question.

    The pics are from create-a-healthy-flexible-body.com and i took a picture on photo booth.

    2011 New Years Resolution







    My New Year  resolution is to improve my handwriting, making it neater and legible. This is because when I do a really good essay handwritten, sometimes   people who read it don't understand what I have written. And for that I lose points and my grade goes lower. Although I don't really like to write, I must make myself learn to like writing.


    Another  New Year  resolution is to improve my fitness, especially my stamina and speed. First of all  I love  playing tag or in other  words "catch-catch". So in order to catch people I have to be fast. And to keep track of my speed I also need to build my stamina  so that it can enhance my speed. And also when I do PE I can be faster and  can get good grades. I might even make many friends. So that's why I need to improve my speed and stamina.

    A snapshot of my holiday is I went to Seremban with my friend, Vishnu. He and  I don't go to the same school.  We met by being neighbors. Both of us have school holidays in December.  So we went to Seremban by car.  My mom drove us there and we met my mom's friend, Saumun.   She took us to our hotel which was a chalet in a club called Royal Sungai Ujong Club. We stayed there for one night. We also made another friend named Lucas.  His mom was my mom's and Saumun's friend too. After that, we went to Saumun's house. She has 5 dogs so we played with them.   My favorite dog was "Spring". The other dogs were  Diver,Bones,Lucky and Smilee. Later in the day, we went to a shopping complex and I bought my all time favorite book "Diary Of A Wimpy Kid" and the sub heading was" The Ugly Truth". My mom bought  Vishnu  Mr Midnight, a series of scary books. Then we went to the swimming pool in the club and met new friends from the U.S (United States). The next day we returned home.


    My second holiday snapshot was that my sister made a surprise visit and we had a good time. When that happened, it was the day  we had come back from Seremban. And Vishnu was there too so I had company for 1 whole week. My mom cooked special dishes for all of us. We went to Desa Park City for New Year's  Eve. My sister was   there when the countdown happened and so was Vishnu. So I had a memorable  time!


    My Url's lingzspot.blogspot.com    and i made the picture below on microsoft word and screen shotted it.
