My School Song

SK Nanga Ngungun

Sekolahku yang tercinta

Walau jauh di pedalaman

Kau teruskan jasa

SK Nanga Ngungun

Berilmu dan berwawasan

Amanah agama bangsa dan negara

Wadah matlamat kita

Ikrar Pelajar dijulang

Rukun Negara disanjungi

Harapan ibu bapa dan guru

Tetap tidak ‘kan dilupa

SK Nanga Ngungun

Walau nanti tetap ku tinggalkan

Kami berikrar teruskan usaha menjadi insan cemerlang

Kami berikrar teruskan usaha menjadi insan cemerlang

Last Sunday, I was preparing my Lesson Plan and I have decided to teach a song titled “Padi”. So, as usual every Monday morning we had assembly. When pupils sang “Negaraku”, I tried to listen very carefully how they pronounce negara. As they had this typical Iban slang; instead of ne-ga-ra-ku, they pronounce it neng-ga-ra-ku.

Then when sang School’s Song. Aha…. They repeated the same mistake.

So this week my main target to correct their pronunciation. Start with my weak pupils 4B. I wrote down the lyric and waited for 40 minutes for them to copy this 16 lines. Then I only have 20 minutes to sing the song correctly with the proper pronunciation. I warned them to read and pronounce carefully/ correctly. Even after I warned them, they till repeat the same mistake. Even worse! Every time they sang line 8, I can’t understand any words out of their mouth. So I can’t catch what word they use to replace the original word. then line 12.

Slowly pronounce it for them some able to correct their mistakes.

Will report again what will happen to my other classes.

My Life

Living alone without your families and friends around could be impracticable. So it does but who are we to choose that kind of life. Yes, we can plan what we want but it is not us to decide. Life is complicated and yet we ware created to be so. I plan to stay and I did. It is so boring that I really hate the moment when I have to decide what to eat. I’ve gastric and my stomach always craving for food. At last I cooked 3 dishes. As I have mentioned before I was lazy to cooked I prepared 3 tasty and special food.

Aubergine curry

Fish soup with lettuce

Fried nugget, chicken frank and coated chicken.

My Blog

This week, I decided to stay back at school instead of going home meeting my love ones. Few reasons why and I did not regret it. I make myself busy from Friday afternoon until today. I actually did not rest except sleeping. I promised myself not to waste my time on games so I plan few things to do. Not all going on as I planned. I start with house chores. Washing tonnes of cloth, cleaning the kitchen and etc. Well, at last I can walk on my new mat and my quarters looks more homey. I also decided to create my own blog (at last) after Grace so many times advised me to do so. Meruked Tu’ is Lun Bawangs word. It means ‘really forever’. I have my own reason I choose this word. I hope through this blog, I can make new friends and to keep in touch with my all friends.
