Child prodigy

From morning until night,
wondering.

Wondering why is that my heart longs,
not knowing people, not understanding me,
Heart longing for friendship and love.

People are selfish, not knowing me,
Been selfish, Not knowing them,
Being in a dilemma,
Hoping things will be better.

Poem for my beloved

To my dearest,

Longing to forget the misery of you not being around,
Enjoying the music so that we can be together.

My heart ache to be with you but i want to be like the couples,
i wished that i am like them.

I don't want to be that guy but the couples,
i rather be the couples than the guy.

Last tree on earth

There I am!! My friends and neighbours had all dropped down weeks ago and my best friend had just dropped a minute ago in front of my eyes and I can’t take it anymore. This happens because there have been no raindrops for the past few weeks. I wondered what is actually wrong with the earth or should I say with the heartless people living on it. Who would know the importance of nature as for trees for instant, that these people could actually breathe and get oxygen which is for healthy living but no, this people care less about the environment which says, “Keep green for a healthy living”, this kind of statement will never alert anyone and they just take things for granted.

As for now, my situation is worst than a dead body which is waiting to be buried. I am standing still but too weak to hold my branches which have only few leaves on it. I don’t know how long more will it take for me to actually fall and die and I just wished that it won’t take that long because living without friends around really made me depressed as I have no one to share my feelings and talk to. All I could see from here is the human made mountains in front and all around me like some giants who are so huge and tall. I just can’t describe how lonely I felt living on this earth where once I was very proud and consider myself as lucky when I had friends who are from my own species but now I felt alone all by myself and I know not long that I would be alive because this human- beings are destroying the nature.

A bored gifted student

There was a girl I barely knew but I heard it from my colleague that she been called Sarah who was a very brilliant girl in a very young age. She was exposed to many activities since small as she was brought up in a very wealthy family. She has an extraordinary talent that is handling mathematics problems in few minutes or even seconds and due to this she was an A+ student and ranked 1st among all the students in state level.

Moreover, she wasn’t only good in studies, but also in co-curriculum activities as she is a very good athletic and always made the point to join mathematics games and even English activities such as public speaking, debate just to improve her language speaking skills and to make her circle of friends bigger.

Furthermore, at the age of 13, she was given a scholarship to continue her studies at Harvard University due to her gifted talent that she had in education level and it was such a blessing to be able to enter such a prestigious university and not everyone is lucky to study there.

Next, Sarah was performing well even when she was in Harvard but later on, few years back, there was a story saying that she turned herself into prostitution. She had been a call-girl as some people said to many guys and her families and close friends were shocked as how could change to such way that they couldn’t even imagine.

It is really sad to see such person who is a brilliant student turned into someone who is not herself .Well many of them don’t know what is the cause of her being a prostitute herself because she is from a wealthy family and she had a great life ahead as she had always get what she wants. There is still a big question mark on that issue.

The Festival

I was asked to attend a festival which is being held every year that I really hate going to. Every year, my family and I will be going to my grandmother’s place which is in Cameron highlands to celebrate our festival. I will always force myself to be there no matter what just to respect my dad. This year, I tried really hard to make excuses but it just didn’t work out as usual. There comes the day that we went to Cameron, the journey was very long indeed. Once we reached, my grandmother was happy to see us and just after 10minutes of relaxing on the sofa, she asked me to clean the house including sweeping, arranging, and many others. The room that I stayed that night was very dirty as the blanket, bed sheet, pillow and everything in the room doesn’t seem right and it was like the whole room was upside down. I even got bitten by some kind of insects since I can’t really see what it was as the room was dark.

The next day, all of us had to get up early since it was the day that we were supposed to celebrate our festival and I got scolding from my grandmother for getting up late. The moment we started to pray, the music that been played, spoilt the whole situation of a beautiful morning. Suddenly it started to rain, the house was very dark and we had to switch on the lights as if it was night time even though the clock shows only 10am in the morning. There are so many rituals in the festival that only old-fashioned people follows like of course, my grandmother. The atmosphere of that boring place was completely the opposite of how I was brought up.

Furthermore, I thought that fresh flowers will always look fresh and nice in highlands but then the flowers that I had to decorate seems so dull, the colours were faded and it looks so dry. Then when it comes to lunch, the food was cold due to the overlapping time that my grandmother took in the ceremony. Oh my god, I really felt trapped in a festival that I shouldn’t have attended.

My favourite fictional character



What is a fictional character??

A fictional character is a person who appears to be in a fiction. More accurately, a fictional character is the person we imagine to exist within the world. In addition to people, characters can be aliens, animals, gods or, occasionally, inanimate objects.

My favourite fictional character is the main character Ariel, who is a mermaid that lives in the sea but dreams of going on land. When her father, King Triton, forbids her to go on land, Ariel visits Ursula who her father had banished. Even though she helps her get to land, what Ariel doesn't know is that Ursula has plans to destroy her to get revenge on her father.

Arial plays a kind, innocent and naive and very trusting character. She falls in love with a prince and trades her voice to the sea witch Ursula for 3 days as a human. She is the primary protagonist. She’s a very sweet looking girl who has cleared skin and delicate as a rose-leaf and her eyes as blue as the deepest sea but then she had no feet, and her body ended in a fish’s tail.

She was a strange child, quiet and thoughtful and she cared for nothing but her pretty red flowers, like the sun, excepting a beautiful marble statue. It was the representation of a handsome boy, carved out of pure white stone, which had fallen to the bottom of the sea from a wreck. She planted by the statue a rose-colored weeping willow. It grew splendidly and very soon hung its fresh branches over the statue, almost down to the blue sands. Nothing gave her so much pleasure as to hear about the world above the sea.

Since I was a kid, I had always wanted to be like her, she led a carefree life which she enjoys with her two best friends, and always strives hard to get what she wants. She is always focused and wants the best although she gets cheated from the antagonist character. The character mainly describes that life is beautiful no matter how many obstacles that comes on our way but yet we can still be happy and learn from our experience. She always dreams of things out of the box that although it is difficult to achieve yet she always have hope and has confidence that it can done.

My favourite writer

As for me , I love reading books like magazines, story books, novel and many more. I read books regardless any authors if i find the content interesting. I grew up by reading Enid Blyton's piece of work. But while i was sitting for my PMR(Penilaian Menengah Rendah) , I was given a book by my dad. It was ( Come To Class With Adibah Bahasa). It was a very interesting book where she speaks in English for Bahasa Malaysia subjects. The book was very helpful for me during my PMR since i was quite weak in Bahasa Malaysia. It is an invaluable guide for students and learners of Bahasa Malaysia as the lesson covered a wide range of common errors and finer points of the language. Then, after a year, I managed to get a copy of her SPM( Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia) book. Come to class with Adibah is Adibah Amin's latest book aimed at helping Malaysian master the national language.

Students preparing for the SPM Bahasa Melayu exam will find it as excellent form of tutorial. There are also something to learn in this book for everyone. If you are ignoramus where Bahasa is concerned and even if your Bahasa needs some brushing up, do Come To Class With Adibah. The book compromise 34 delightful lessons that make learning Bahasa fun and easy. Turn to any lesson and you will undoubtedly learn something new and unforgettable because you are under the tutelage of Adibah Amin.

Adibah Amin is an inspiring teacher and renowned bilingual writer who is a household name with Malaysian. A journalist, novelist and writer of short stories in both English and Bahasa Melayu, Adibah has many translations, radio dramas, several books and many writing awards to her credit. The latest was in 1996 when she was presented with the Johor Literary Award. A former school principal, Adibah started her career in journalism with the News Straits Times in 1971. She left in 1984 and spend many years in freelance writing and teaching Bahasa. In the early 1990's, she joined The Star and soon began writing a series of articles on Bahasa for the Sunday Star Education pullout.

Now I am looking forward for her next piece of work. Thanks alot Adibah Amin as you have helped me alot in my Bahasa paper.
