Merdeka Public Speaking Competition

Merdeka season.... A time where you see flags are finally being displayed by patriotic commercial and private drivers alike. This is the time when you don't see Tunku Abdul Rahman as a geek. This is the time when you look up to him. Some may even realize that we are actually quite a fortunate country. Do we get hit by tsunami at least once every four years? Do we fortify our houses with nails and wooden boards whenever we hear warnings of strong wind? Do we fear our life would fly out of the window in the next minute? NO, we don't. So, you've got to appreciate it lah.

In collaboration with the Bulan Kemerdekaan, an English Public Speaking Competition will be held. The details are below.

p/s: Yes, I moderate things around here, crimsonteddy. Do you want to subscribe to a daily newspaper filled with foulwords or disturbing pictures and the headline is about your notoriety? I don't think so... Try being in someone else's shoe before you post things up.

Stay cautious, you dont want to be part of the figure below.

Minor Reminders....

So according to Ashwin, the boys will be having PJ tomorrow. For the past 2 weeks, rain had been pouring whenever we were about to have our PJ. Hopefully this time that won't happen.

Oh yeah, this is directed to boys only. For the girls, maybe you can ask Reenisha.

Few things you should bring tomorrow....

1) PJ clothes (Boys, especially)

2) Chemistry PEKA (Latest by today actually)

3) Penilaian 2 exam slip (I know some of you haven't get yet, my bad)

4) School Fees (RM 106.50)

5) Your clothes, bag, brain, and completed homeworks (This is a tough one, eh?)

Since the fasting season is coming soon, I wish all Muslims a HAPPY PUASA TIME. May you fast without lust. XD

And the most important thing.... MID-SEMESTER HOLIDAYS IS COMING SOON!!! WOOHOO!!!

Fun, eh? Not so for some. Moving on... I suggest you complete all your stalled homeworks during the holidays. Procrastinating is fun, but don't always do it. There's a high chance of getting lectures from teachers AND parents if you procrastinate too much. Oh and, don't go to places with many people too often since the H1N1 virus is still floating around. You don't want to be part of the infected too, do you?

So yeah, that should be all.

[POST RESPONSE] To crimsonteddy: Please bear in mind that the audience of this blog are not just members of 4M. Please differentiate between humour and disrespect. And that particular double-handed middle finger image is a no-go. I am against the use of foul words AND/OR offending images in posts. I can tolerate things like that in the cbox but not in posts. Sorry if you find that slightly offending, but there will be more who will get offended if they were to read your latest post. I hope you cooperate. Thank you.

The Tormented Soul of School FEES...

A very short post this is to thou who hath not paid their fees.

~Pay it or it will torment you for the rest of the year, perhaps next year too~

~The fees are only RM106.50~

~WOOOOoooooo~

Be scared, be very scared.

p/s: Lol, I was watching Scary Movie 2 yesterday. So actually there's not much reason behind the dumb "ghost-like" post. It just suddenly came to my mind. XD

The Unofficial HAKK "Holiday"

Today, the Hari Anugerah Kecemerlangan Kokurikulum (HAKK) was held. The event started at 7.40 am (was it?) and ended at around 9.30 am. Lessons continued as usual shortly after. Well, at least those who were absent didn't waste their time enjoying their little "holiday" right, Ethan?

Since there was quite a number absentees today, I'll be posting today's homework here. So, those who weren't present, please take note.

Homework

Practice 1, pg 182 (Chapter 9: Differentiation)

DO ALL (Book 1)

Book 2 had been sent.

*Just a little summary of today's Add Maths lesson. Just in case you don't understand the explanation in the text book.

lim means limit

x --> n means "when x is approaching n" where n represent a constant (number) .

Anything after the limit and "x --> n" is called a function. Example: 1/(x+4) [refer to textbook]

-[-][-I'll refer the "limit", the "x --> n" and the function as a "function limiter". Keep in mind that this is not the official name of the "funtion limiter"-][-]-

So for Q1, construct the table and key in the function on your calculator and replace x with the constant. As in the case of the first question, x = 1, 0.5, 0.1, 0.01 and 0.001. The same thing goes for Q2. After you're done with the questions, write down the "function limiter" expression again and put it equal to the number it's approaching. As in the case of the first question, the answer is 2.

As for number 3, just substitute x in the function with the number that it's approaching. For example, "x --> n". In this case, substitute x inside the function with n and you'll get the answer.

That should be all. Hopefully the explanation above helps.
