I saw a lot of books arranged in the
racks. There were thick, thin, new and also old books and also little number
of people walking around and searching for books.
|
I could hear the sound of working air
conditioner and people footsteps walking around the library, stepping on the
stairs.
|
I can feel the peace of seeking
knowledge. I also feel motivated when sitting here in library.
|
I could smell the smells of old books,
and musty smells of the carpets.

( BY MELOR MD YUNUS, HADI SALEHI & CHEN CHENZI )
As our world facing
the rapid development of technology, students nowadays can learn English
writing by integrating of social networking tools. There are several advantages
and disadvantages using social networking services to teach. This approach really
helps to enhance students’ motivation and even building up their confidence in
learning ESL writing classroom. Moreover, student’s thinking and writing skills
can be improved more. This approach also helps to broaden their general knowledge
since internet provides information that could be useful for them. Other than

shy students who might not otherwise reach out. When teachers and students use
SNSs, for example Facebook, the relationship among them become strengthen.
Posto!! Posto!!
Dear Nur Affia,
PEACE BE UPON YOU..
Hello!! It is September, 2012
when I wrote this letter. I put it in you blog so that you’ll always read it –
perhaps you need some inspiration to survive as University student. I made it
especially for you as I’m expecting the greatest successful from you – each and
every second. Never stop asking good
things for you, dear. I’m pretty sure
that you are smiling while reading this letter as it reminds you that you’re
only 20 when you write this. It’s been too long. Having great changes, huh?
SO NOW; GIVE
THANKS TO ALLAH FOR GIVING YOU CHANCE TO LEARN MORE AND MORE ..
It was only little number of days you are here in University
Malaysia Sabah as a first year student, and I do really understand; it’s not
that easy to escape from having rough time right? Having lectures, classes all
day long, and even running out of money are things that you have to face most
of the times. But I do hope that you are always there on the top to face all
those difficulties in order to be a matured one.
First thing first is that want to
remind you – every time you read this, not to forget to appreciate those who
always support you. Please do remember your mum, dad, siblings, teachers,
relatives and your friends that never stopped help you to build up your
confidence, guide you to set your goals, and always there for you every time
you need them.
Here in campus, you are actually
about to learn life lessons together with all the subjects that you have to sit
for the exams. Never take for granted about that.
I just wanted to write more but
maybe next time. Yeah! I’m going write to you more after this. Last but not
least, another thing – most important, I guess. Do not forget to perform your
prayers.
p/s : do not
forget to call your parents, as much as you can. Tell them that you really
appreciate and love them!
love,
NUR AFFIA

you.should.know.more.
Hi,
peace be upon you J
26th November, 1992 was a greatest day that my parents
ever had! It was my birthday. Since I am their first child, my parents expected
to have me as the one that will always give them happiness. They put a very high
expectation to me - to be a successful one! My parents named me as NUR AFFIA. It was actually an Arabic
name and just wanted to share that “NUR” means cahaya – lights and “AFFIA” means kesejahteraan – peace. Well, ‘lights of peace’. Such a great name,
huh? Not forgotten, introducing you my dad, HELIMIN SAPING and my mum, HAMIAH
HAJI KILAU. I really loved them! My life is totally empty without these two
persons. Hmm, I’m from KUNDASANG, RANAU.
