Dear P01 and P02 students!

Posting in your subject blog is something new for you. So you must have many questions on how to go about doing this.

Be rest assured. Here are some FAQs to guide you through this.

Q1: God no! Does this mean I need to have my own blog? Lecehnye this subject....
A: No, dears, you don't need to have your own blog but if you want one, go right ahead, and create your own blog. I will even link your blog to mine. However for this course, all you need to do is to leave your comments in the right post. Meaning, if you are from P01, post in the entry that is meant for you, unless it's a common entry, like this one.

Q2: But if I don't have my own blog, how will I post?

Even if you have your own blog and your username is Jack Dawson, you'll still need to leave your name and Matric number unless of course Jack Dawson is your real name.

Q3: How many comments do I have to make?
A: You can make as many comments as you want. But the average is 5 throughout the semester. That however, will give you the average mark. Do refer to the assessment scheme for blogging that I will be giving you soon.

It's been six weeks...what I've learnt so far in UHL 2312 class - P02

It's been six weeks in UMP but 4 weeks of lessons/ learning 'coz we have to minus the first week and last week, our quarantine week. That's a setback but we'll make up for it. So here's a quick review of what we've done so far and what I'd like for you to tell me is what you've gotten from all the activities. If you got nothing, by all means, tell me also why the activity had no impact on you. After all, hehe, you can't teach an old dog new tricks, just kidding; I was going to say, it's not learning if people already know.

Okay, we did (1) SNOWBALL FIGHT, (2) RESEARCH on job requirement and opportunities, (3) Speed Talk and Board games, (4) TEAMBUILDING and MoU, (5) PRESENT - Steps to be an effective presenter (including the video clips you viewed), and (6) Train the Speaker.

Please comment on each activity.

I've been reading...P02 - August

Dear P02 students of mine!

Complete the sentence, "I've been reading..." or "I've read...".

Me, I've read this book by Mitch Albom entitled For One More Day. It's about a guy called Chick Benitto who comes from a dysfunctional family, and worships the ground his father walks on and blames mom when his father left. After a series of failures, he basically tried to kill himself - his biggest blow was when his daughter didn't invite him him to her wedding.

So he decides he's going to kill himself back where it all began, his hometown. In his bizarre attempt to end his life, the guy meets, of all people, his mom! His mom, who's been dead for years and he wasn't there for her. It was her birthday and he didn't turn up. Instead he was trying to rekindle his glory days but it didn't work out.

During this time he learns the truth about his parents' separation, and how he had wronged his mom and how much his mom loved him. Really, it was sad reading the parts where he retold all the times he didn't stand up for her, and how she stood up for him. Made me wonder myself what kind of daughter I am and was to my parents and they must have felt at that time. You know, we can't take back what we've done but we can always try to make up for it, and we must always show and tell our parents that we love them. Even as I write this, I am reminiscent of the impact it made on me and I feel unwanted tears welling in my eyes.

But I guess the point is that it goes both ways, imagine how Chick's mom must be feeling, that she'd failed him to a point that he's driven to take his own life...So did he die or not? If he didn't, how could he meet his mom? Or was it all a dream? Go get the book, it's worth your time, believe me.

However, if you hadn't read this book, it's okay. Don't beat yourself too hard. Basically you can write about anything else you've read, preferably in English. It could be a book, a magazine article, a blog, anything! Having read it, just post your comments here about what you've read, and what kind of reading text it was, how it made you feel and why, what it reminded you of and why.
