conjecture

hey, I have something to discuss here. People nowadays are more comfortable making decision without figure it out first. What makes me saying that because of one of my friends easily presume that one of this twins is bad because the other twins always didn't do his assignment work according to rumors(fallacy of hasty generalization). Actually we have to investigate and find out either its true or just a bad rumors.

Low Carry Marks =(

Just now I opened the MMLS after I've been told that the carry marks have been uploaded by the lecturer. Unfortunately, it just 20% out of 50% (statistical arguments) marks that i got and yet still have another one more quiz to go for me to do.Wish me luck!!

In My Dreams!

It's nice after I'm having my break fasting meal just now. The moment that I've been waiting since afternoon where I wanted to tasted my F&N Grape while its still cold. What a marvelous moment if you're thirsty and drink a cold water that have a grape taste in it!huh! My stomach is full now and it's time for me to wash my hand. Ouh! I'm so lethargic and wish that my hand can walk and wash itself (paradox) even though I know its never gonna happen ..ahahah..kind a crazy the way I think after I ate a lot and felt sleepy. Grrr!

Can I be classified as a hardworking?



Here's a thing. Just now I went to see my advisor for my assessment for this trimester. Huh! I really makes my advisor disappointed because of C.G.P.A decline. I didn't keep my promises where I have to studied well last semester. Well, I do regret it actually.



After I've been scolded by my advisor and listen to his advise, I said to him that I am not going to promise him anything, but I will try my best and will never give up till I get the marks that I wish for. I can do this and do better than this.

My advisor give me an option either want me to regret the rest of my life or change my life and do better starting from now on. You guys out there, let's do it!yeah!



- I assume my self as one of the Characteristics of Creative People : creative people are hardworking.

Describing Image

I have an interesting idea here and its referring to Creative Writing Technique : The 'Unknown Biography'. All I have to do is just describe a picture of people, things, landscape or even view and brief what has happening before or after the picture were captured and also identify the identity or I can change the real identity of that person/thing.

This is a picture of archeologist travelling into the Gua Niah in Sarawak to find a bat nest. Before this guy fall into the hole, he actually danced and jumped for celebrating his success on discover a huge bat nest. To much rejoice, he finally fell down into the hole and stuck for hours. While waiting in suffered and hungry, a group of Iban people came and realize there is a man stuck in their cave and thought that the guy who stuck were enemy and planned to kill him. Luckily for him when the Iban's Chief recognize him while watched discovery channel last night. =)

This is a fake policeman trying to act like he is controlling the traffic and people thought that he is crazy person standing at the middle of the road. Before he came on the road, he is actually a pathetic fisherman that just failed to catch a fish and never had one in his entire life. This picture was taken by a amateur photographer and realize by the fake policeman. The photographer was beaten in front of everybody and suddenly the real policeman catch the crazy policeman and bring him to the jail. ahahaha.. =)

Pity my frens =D

Yesterday after finished my class, I went to the bazaar where people bought the food for break fasting. While I walked to my car, I received a call from Med asked me either I go to the bazaar or not. With no doubt, I just simply answered 'yes,and meet me at the usual place first' (Reconstruction:implicit conclusion) and assume that Med understood what I mean. What I mean at the usual place is front of the Cyberia shop and meet there before depart. As I arrived at front of the shop, I didn't see Med' car and wait about fifteen minutes until Med called me asked me where the hack I am. On the conversation Med said that he is now at the bazaar Putrajaya and at the usual place. Later than I realized that actually Med is misunderstood from what I said and its also my fault where I thought Med understood what I mean.

Trouble!

My friend Haikal (not a real name) is having a problem with his girlfriend where she dumped Haikal and ask for a break. The reasons why she's doing that, Haikal still haven't know yet. As a good friend of mine, I try to figure it out at the same time helping him what is actually happend. While I was thinking how can I investigate this thing, suddenly the D.A.I.D formula appear and makes me want to apply this method of solving problems. First thing that I do is to define the problem occured and it was a situation that need a explaination. The problem now is, Haikal has been left by his girlfriend but he still don't know why his girlfriend doing that. From the problem I analyse the problem by asking Haikal what happend in the past, is he ever did anything wrong before? or maybe that Haikal had fought with his girlfriend before? and I ask him again, is there still a hope that if the relationship is still going on, and both of you will going to be like usual or besides that?and if yes, I must find a solution to make thing back to normal.
In a way to find a solution, I have to identify and list down the possible solution that I can throw the problems away. I give an idea for Haikal to get back with his girl and apologies to her or wait until she came to Haikal back and she's the one who apologies. Other than that, just let things calm before take an action otherwise things might get worse. Finally, all the solutions that I just brought, Haikal must list the advantages and disadvantages before make any decision and he must choose the best solution which is the lowest of disadvantages and high of advantages. After a few month later, Haikal told me that he decided not to get back with his girl because the girl dumped him because of another guy. Well, that's a good decision that he ever made before and I think he's is fine now, I guess =) .

-Amazing Picture-

What can we describe from this picture? Well, a few things here I list what I see through the picture :

- crocodile.
- big rock downpour by the water.
- buddhist rock.
- big eyes of crocodile.
- timber.

and how about if I rotate the picture and you can see another images appear.


- statue a woman holding his child.
- rock island surrounded by sea.

Interesting isn't it? =) This is the Cognitive complexity.

Confuse!

Hah!here’s a thing..I got an invitation from my friends to be one of their band’s members. Sounds interesting isn’t it? There is a lot of experience that I can gain from joining them as a members, but what really confusing me is it worth it? This semester seems like tough for me where I have to struggle to make my pointer back on track. This band kind an active where there is always a performance invitation from everyone. So, I have to choose either be part of the band or just simply reject it (Compound Claims:Disjunctives) because once I have make my decision to join them, it’s hard for me to keep my study on average and of course I have a lot of commitment. So,what am I suppose to do?help!

- In this paragraph also include rethorical question where my question need a feedback from the reader.

Politics

This report were taken from 'The Sun newspaper' while I'm reading the previous news about politics.

Najib to DrM: Show proof of sand and air space offer to S'pore
Husna Yusop

KUALA LUMPUR: Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak today (Aug 14, 2006) asked Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad to show proof to back his allegation that Malaysia had offered sand and air space to Singapore.

He said although the issue is academic now as the government has decided not to go ahead with the bridge to replace the Causeway, the government is willing to look at the former prime minister's proof.

To a question from a reporter, Najib said he does not know whether the evidence that Mahathir claims he has is classified under the Official Secrets Act unless it is revealed and assessed.

"But if he is afraid to reveal it (publicly), he can submit proof to us first, we can see what he has."

Najib was speaking to reporters after opening the 58th special general meeting of the Peninsula Malay Students Confederation (GPMS).

He was asked to comment on Mahathir's statement in a ceremony during the Petaling Jaya Utara Umno Youth annual meeting on Saturday (Aug 12, 2006) that he was willing to swear by the Quran to lend credence to his arguments.

To this, Najib reiterated the government's stand that the issue of sand and airspace was brought up by Singapore "as a balance of interest for the construction of the straight bridge."

On Mahathir's statement on Sunday (Aug 13, 2006) that he will "stop talking" if the government decides to build the bridge, Najib said the cabinet has already made the decision not to go on with the project.

"It is not that we want to cancel it but it was due to the complicated matter, especially in terms of international laws and the water agreement with Singapore," he said.

On the move by the PJ Utara Umno division to invite Mahathir as a guest at its meeting, Najib said the party headquarters has yet to decide on the matter.

According to an Umno supreme council directive, only supreme council members, Umno ministers and mentris besar are allowed to open divisional meetings.

"Tun is still an Umno member and we take into consideration the fact the meeting was organised by Umno members. However, we will monitor the development. It is up to the Disciplinary Board," he added.

Asked whether the government is doing anything to stop Mahathir's criticisms which are confusing the public, he said they will continue to explain the issues raised.

"We cannot guarantee this (when he will stop) because we do not know what we should do to end it. We do not know what Tun actually wants in this matter," he added.

On GPMS, Najib suggested the new leadership tackle issues like the dropout rate among Malays, the imbalance between male and female university students and the unemployment among Malay graduates.


-After I studied on this report, I found that its using Pettitio Principii (Burden of Proof Fallacy).

Malay Marriage Tradition

In Malaysia, we have many traditions from different culture. In Malays, when someone got married, there will always be the same of ceremony where the guys will wore 'Baju Melayu', Keris, Tanjak and same goes to the girls wore 'Baju Kurung', Tudung and so on. This is because of the tradition that has been in Malays blood since hundred years ago and it is a compulsory for those who wanted to get married apply to this tradiotion. The traditions in Malays marriage is still use by the newly weds nowadays and of course some of differences made according to changes era. This is some of the picture that has been taken by my cousin. Enjoy =) .

A bridegroom arrived at the bride house followed by family members. The guy who is next to the bridegroom is the groomsmen. Usually the bridegroom selects his closest friends and/or relatives to serve as a groomsmen.



These are a gift or also known as 'Hantaran' in Malay from the bride and bridegroom to each other. It can be anything and of course its like a tradition to give a 'hantaran'.



(expensive ring =D )

In Muslim's, its enforced on having 'Akad Nikah' before the married couple can be anounce as a husband and wife because its the main factor on getting married in Muslim's. The ring is the symbol of marriage for the bride and same goes to the bridegroom. After finishing the 'akad nikah' ceremony, we will now can pronounce them, husband and wife =) .


-Im using an ad populum appeal to tradition.

-Kid-

Yesterday, when I just arrived at my house ,I saw a guy climbed up the ladder and tried to change the light bulb. While I was taking my baggage and walked past near that guy ,I recognized him as my neighbor who had just moved below my apartment .I saw a small boy played around him, and I thought the boy might be his son. As I walked near to that boy, suddenly he asked me, “is that uncle an electrician? I think he is because he is now changing the bulb..” I just simply smiled and said “I have no idea kid.” . As far as I know, that guy was a soldier and left the service a few years ago. A small kid naturally can make his own decision or assumption basing on his experience and from what he saw.

-that kid are using Argument Based on Definition when he makes his own assumption that the guy might be someone else from what he’s doing.

My first blog for today =)

Sharp at 4 p.m, I went out and planned to buy a top up phone first before I buy my mother’s cooking stuff and after that I thought I want to go to CC(cyber café) to do my assignment. However, I decided not to go when I found out that the cyber café just next to the supermarket were closed and there is a paper attached to the door written ‘Close for an emergency’. Kind a tired for me to go out again after I go back home actually, but well, I have to and here I am, writing my blog =) .

- the usage of phrase ‘however’ which is in The Contrary Relationship and the word ‘first’ is The Sequential Relationship.

Dilemma on me =(

As you all know according to my title,Im not going to tell a story about Dilemma a song from Nelly featuring Kelly Rowland,but dilemma that I've just gone through this evening.So,don't get confused!ahahaha. The task for Critical Thinking that I just been told that really makes me feel bad because of the work that must be update everyday. This weekend I have to go back home to see my family to gather with my family but that does not bother me at all. What bothering me is I don't have the internet connection at my house!So how am I going to do my assignment!?!After the tutorial class,I went to see Madam Aznur that just had pregnant =) (congrats to you Madam) and ask her if I can skip the assignment untill I back to Cyberjaya and do my assignment.With a pretty smile on Madam Aznur face,she said 'no' or my marks will be deduct because of the sequence when I updating my blog. *sigh* . No longer happy face on me after that.I have to choose either go back home or stay in hostel do my assignment.It's hard to make a decision that is both are important.

Soon enough,Yans,my classmate ask me why I went to see lecturer and I told him from the beginning.Simply he told me that you can go to cc(cyber cafe) to surf my blog.Why I did not think about this before?!?ahahaha(don't think that Im stupid,because when you're in that situation,you'll feel the same way I do) =) ..I got my mood back!my crazy character back!ahahaha..As i get my mood back,I've got an idea where in that situation is the ad populum appeal to a false dilemma.Yes!I got another point to post today!ahahaha...thanks friend! =D

Lunched with my friends

As most of the students in MMU had their lunch at Terminal Cyberjaya, and same goes to me. After finishing the BCT class at 2p.m , I had lunch with med,alan and some other members. As usual,my food will always be the same type of dishes,cat fish(ikan keli) and some vegetables =) . While waiting the food to be serve, we talked all about the stuff that appear in our mind especially about Critical Thinking task that we had told during the BCT class and all the sudden my friend ,Fit@CrushezBOY,asked me a question that really makes me think that this is related to Critical Thinking.He said that "apiez,will you go to the Bobo's birthday celebration on next week?Because all of our friends confirming that they will go.So you have to go!" My friend use a leading question to persuade me to go.I was kind a shock and laughed all the sudden. I know that Fit@LoverBOY is teasing and make some jokes over me.Then, I realized that what just happened is related to the Critical Thinking which is leading question where the question that makes people will going to answer 'yes' no matter what. Thanks to Fit@RosesBOY for giving me an idea to post a first blog for today =) .At last,to my classmate for accounting,ALAN..you're the cutest guy in MMU!! AHAHAHAH! =D
