                                                            The  Saddest Day Ever

          Tonight, we filled the form of survey on the students' perceptions, interactions and writing proficiency in call through reflective journal on blogs that given by Miss Zu. Well in the form actually is reflect to our blog. For me personally bLogging it is good on how to improve our english grammar. After that, we discussed about example of term paper. I'am still slow on how to do it but i just stick to the flow  on how to answer it.

         Now let me tell you about the saddest moment that we been through tonight , As we know tonight was the last day we met Miss Zu because final examination is about around the corner and we have to end it tonight. Not only end for BEL 311 but it is also the last day for all of us to be together, having a junk food together and laugh. I can't stand to see all of my friend's face because they shows grieve face on the our last meeting.

     The Good news about tonight is, i don't need to update any BEL311's blog anymore booyyyaahhhh
Bye-bye Miss Zu
Farewell Friends

                                             How to make Arguementative essay??

             Today we learned about arguementative essay but how to  differentiate it with other term paper essay?? Its easy just  find the word of '' should be" in the question. Easy isn't it?

Then we moved how to make thesis statement:
1) must clearly states which side you are for:
  - for example: curfew laws are unfair and should be abolished  in public universities. Writer is disagree because there is unpleasant word as underlined.

            Then Miss Zu asked us to make our own thesis statement. Below is the example of mine and my friend's:
                                         My thesis statement and stand for agree:
Organ donation should be encouraged among Malaysian. Due to the various negative impacts especially in term of health condition of donors will be affected after the donation, there are strong claims that organ donation should be encouraged among Malaysian people as a noble action.

                                     Sarah's Thesis statement and stand for agree:
Although organ donation brings negative perception towards Malaysian society, there are strong evidence   that organ donation should be encouraged among Malaysian to give a second chance to the patience.

                                        Bariah's thesis statement and stand for agree:
 Despite the claim that donation is seen as a noble action and gives benefit towards people who needed organ donation should not be encouraged among Malaysian because it can affect not only the donors but as well as the  donor's family.


                    After what we saw the description how to make arguementative essay, Miss Zu said to make one but this time we gotta do individually and submit it on next week. You know what, this is crazy because this week we about going to crazy think about a lot of test a head of us, then today Miss Zu added up this crazy essay. Hell no..

                                                             Practice Speaking test

                 Today, Miss Zu  carried out another speaking practice that comprised Rozita, Adibah,  Syafiqah and Wasim . This practice really essential for us before we do the real speaking test within this week. As we realized time didin’t allow us to do more practice infront everybody, therefore we carried out by ourselves immediately after Miss Zu gone back home but we gotta do this fast. At last ours is done by the commitment given by my group that comprised Nadia Zamri and Hakimah but Hakimah was absent yesterday ..
        This task is Quite challenging to me but I more like to speak rather than writing and typing an essay.
