The Review

     
 
    Wow...it's the first tutorial of teaching writing skills, and the most surprising was we are going to start our first assignment..oh please..but whatever it is, I honestly think that it is good, as what people always said, the earlier the better.yeah,that's right! There's a lot of things we discuss about..The topic was Integrating Social Networking Tools Into ESL Writing Classroom: Strengths and Weaknesses. Just to state my opinion, I would say that I am not really agree with this.Know why?? By using facebook for example, students are prone to use shorr forms and by doing so, it will become their habits especially when they sit for their exam. 
    But if we are to look at different perspectives, for instant, the parents will not be very happy when their children are busy with facebook all the time. The question is, are they really studying or not?? However the students themselves in other way will look at this in a different opinion.Especially those teenagers. Majority of them will love it for it is a kind of fun-learning method. How about the community?? Are they agree? Some will say that is good but some might just think that is is not a serious way of learning. However there is no answer of right or wrong for this as different people will look at it in a different way and thinking. It depends on us how we are going to judge it..

I miss my home...

     Hey...finally i'm here...why?? hmmm..just forget it.Well, i'm happy to be given the opportunity to create my own blog and say anything on it. Sounds good right?  This is my second times I reached sabah,.undeniedable it is such a beautiful place to go but honestly it's just that I still can't fully adapt myself  here..No one knows..I missed my family especially both my parents, my nephews and my nieces..Being far from them is not an easy things to go through...Whether I like it or not, I need to do so..Hopefully, things will go easier..Hmm..The most important thing is to be calm and slowly adapt myself here....
