POEM .(FRIENDS) -lin-

i'll will always remember you.

I never doubted our friendship.
I Always though we would make it.
We shared so many memories!
I was the one to hold you when you cried!
You said you could only trust me
So what happened?
What changed your mind?


Went to school together for 3 years
Then we took off
You forgot about me
You made me feel lost
Now im alone!
Its all gone!
But I still have the strength and faith to call you MY BEST FRIEND :'D 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Always friend

We met back in 9th grade.
we didn't really know each other back then.
and who knew we were going to become the best of friends.
Every time we saw each other we said " hey, whats up"
We never hung out outside of school. I would say we were never at that stage.
Sophomore year came and it turned out we had a class together.
that's what i call fate
we became good friends.
We shared our secrets, thoughts, fears and dreams.
We laughed, we cried, but we never got into a fight.
Then there came that time where you decided to switch schools.
I was afraid that our friendship would end.
and there was nothing i could have done or said.
we drifted apart and we only talked one in a blue moon.
Then we became close again, and i felt like everything was the way it was supposed to be.
Every time i heard, saw you cry broke my heart.
I hated seeing you upset.
There was nothing i could do, but only to tell you that I'm by your side, that ill always be there no matter the distance or how far we are.
The Samii that i know is a happy and upbeat one.
She doesn't care what people say or think.
Samii you've become one of my very best friends that i will always love.
The distance that we now share has only made us closer
You deserve the best of the best.
Your unique and no one can compare to you at all, because they don't stand a chance.
I love you and you know ill always be there no matter what.
Love you & Miss you

A road accident :( -lin-

Our house is along a busy road.In front of or house is a wall which runs along the road. One night while we were watching TV we heard a loud crash. It sounded like an explosion. We quickly rushed out to have a look. We were shocked to see that two panels of the wall in front had collapsed in a pile. The road was in full view. We could see many cars slowing down and soon there was a traffic jam. We went to the road and saw a car had smashed into the wall.

The engine of the car was on the road. The driver was still in the car. Many people tried to get the driver out. Someone called the ambulance. Soon we heard the siren of a police car and after that an ambulance. A crowd soon gathered. The police tried to control the traffic but curious drivers slowed down to have a look at the accident. That made the traffic worse.

I heard people explaining what had happened. There were many different explanations. Some said that the driver was drunk, other said he was trying to avoid a cat and yet others said he was speeding and skidded. Whatever the reason i felt sorry for the driver. The ambulance took him to the hospital. No one knows whether he lived or died. There was nothing in the newspapers the next day.

PERSONA POEM

Serenity

by Dena Martin

As I look Beyond the ripples of my reflections To examine my inner self; The ripples begin to fade . . . As the reflection lays beside me Grasping my hand, The inner warmth shields me And the vision of my reflection appears I see you. My Friend.

HOW TO WRITE AN ESSAY

Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.
-- Gene Fowler

Brief Overview of the 10 Essay Writing Steps

Below are brief summaries of each of the ten steps to writing an essay. Select the links for more info on any particular step, or use the blue navigation bar on the left to proceed through the writing steps. How To Write an Essay can be viewed sequentially, as if going through ten sequential steps in an essay writing process, or can be explored by individual topic.

1. Research: Begin the essay writing process by researching your topic, making yourself an expert. Utilize the internet, the academic databases, and the library. Take notes and immerse yourself in the words of great thinkers.

2. Analysis: Now that you have a good knowledge base, start analyzing the arguments of the essays you're reading. Clearly define the claims, write out the reasons, the evidence. Look for weaknesses of logic, and also strengths. Learning how to write an essay begins by learning how to analyze essays written by others.

3. Brainstorming: Your essay will require insight of your own, genuine essay-writing brilliance. Ask yourself a dozen questions and answer them. Meditate with a pen in your hand. Take walks and think and think until you come up with original insights to write about.

4. Thesis: Pick your best idea and pin it down in a clear assertion that you can write your entire essay around. Your thesis is your main point, summed up in a concise sentence that lets the reader know where you're going, and why. It's practically impossible to write a good essay without a clear thesis.

5. Outline: Sketch out your essay before straightway writing it out. Use one-line sentences to describe paragraphs, and bullet points to describe what each paragraph will contain. Play with the essay's order. Map out the structure of your argument, and make sure each paragraph is unified.

6. Introduction: Now sit down and write the essay. The introduction should grab the reader's attention, set up the issue, and lead in to your thesis. Your intro is merely a buildup of the issue, a stage of bringing your reader into the essay's argument.

7. Paragraphs: Each individual paragraph should be focused on a single idea that supports your thesis. Begin paragraphs with topic sentences, support assertions with evidence, and expound your ideas in the clearest, most sensible way you can. Speak to your reader as if he or she were sitting in front of you. In other words, instead of writing the essay, try talking the essay.

8. Conclusion: Gracefully exit your essay by making a quick wrap-up sentence, and then end on some memorable thought, perhaps a quotation, or an interesting twist of logic, or some call to action. Is there something you want the reader to walk away and do? Let him or her know exactly what.

9. MLA Style: Format your essay according to the correct guidelines for citation. All borrowed ideas and quotations should be correctly cited in the body of your text, followed up with a Works Cited (references) page listing the details of your sources.

10. Language: You're not done writing your essay until you've polished your language by correcting the grammar, making sentences flow, incoporating rhythm, emphasis, adjusting the formality, giving it a level-headed tone, and making other intuitive edits. Proofread until it reads just how you want it to sound. Writing an essay can be tedious, but you don't want to bungle the hours of conceptual work you've put into writing your essay by leaving a few slippy misppallings and pourly wordedd phrazies..

FAEDAH KOKURIKULUM

Kegiatan kokurikulum telah dianggap satu aktiviti yang penting tetapi pembabitan pelajar agak mengecewakan. Ada pelbagai faktor yang menyebabkan pelajar tidak mahu melibatkan diri mereka dalam aktiviti ini. Sikap tidak acuh pelajar ini telah menyebabkan kerajaan mewajibkan kegiatan ini dan menjadi syarat unntuk pemilihan ke universiti. Sebenarnya, kokurikulum mempunyai banyak kebaikan yang tersirat.
Pelajar yang terlibat dengan kokurikulum dapat menyihatkan badan mereka. Peluh yang keluar dapat menghilangkan toksik badan. Pelajar yang menghadapi era persekolahan zaman ini memang penuh masalah, jadi pembabitan dalam kokurikulum mampu mengurangkan tekanan ini. Kegiatan yang dijalankan itu mampu mengalih fikiran pelajar sejenak daripada persiapan peperiksaan mereka yang penuh dengan penghafalan dan membuat latihan. Minda mereka dapat berehat sebentar apabila melakukan aktiviti yang berbeza iaitu kokurikulum.
Dalam masa yang sama pembabitan pelajar memastikan mereka tidak terbabit dengan aktiviti yang tidak sihat. Kegiatan kokurikulum dilakukan pada masa-masa yang telah ditetapkan. Penetapan masa ini menyebabkan pelajar terpaksa menguruskan masa mereka dengan bijak. Pelajar yang terbabit dalam aktiviti ini akan mengutamakan aktiviti kokurikulum dan pembelajaran mereka. Ringkasnya, mereka kekurangan masa untuk melibatkan diri dalam aktiviti yang tidak sihat seperti melepak.
Selain itu, pelajar turut dapat menambah keyakinan diri mereka melalui aktiviti kokurikulum ini. Kokurikulum menyediakan satu “medan” yang sesuai kepada pelajar untuk memimpin atau mengetuai sesuatu pertubuhan. Situasi ini memberikan mereka satu keyakinan terhadap kemampuan mereka dalam aspek-aspek tertentu. Mereka mula menyedari bakat yang ada dan berupaya untuk mengembangkannya serta mengasahnya menjadi sesuatu yang lebih cemerlang lagi seperti memimpin pertubuhan belia, syarikat dan mungkin juga negara.
Malahan, aktiviti kokurikulum membuka minda dan mata pelajar tentang erti persahabatan dan pergaulan. Mereka akan bertemu dengan pelbagai orang dalam menjalankan aktiviti kokurikulum itu. Mereka mengenal jenis manusia sebenar terutama apabilamenghadapi masalah untuk menganjurkan sesuatu aktiviti. Mereka juga mengenali erti persahabatan yang sejati. Pengalaman ini semua akan mengajar pelajar erti kehidupan yang tidak boleh mereka peroleh di luar.
Pelajar juga mengetahui banyak perkara baru. Aktiviti dalam pertubuhan beruniform akan mendedahkan mereka kepada cara-cara untuk menyelamatkan mangsa ketika kecemasan, cara berkhemah, cara memasak dan cara menguruskan perbelanjaan persatuan. Semua ini memberi satu pengetahuan yang berguna kepadapelajar. Ilmu ini turut memberi pelajar satu dimensi baru dalam cara mereka melihat sesuatu pertubuhan apabila mereka keluar dari sekolah.
Kesimpulannya, aktiviti kokurikulum haruslah disertai oleh semua pelajar tanpa sebarang prasangka buruk. Mereka tidak harus menganggap aktiviti ini akan menghalang kemajuan mereka dalam peperiksaan. Mereka tidak harus menyalahkan kokurikulum kalau mereka tidak memperoleh keputusan yang cemerlang dalam peperiksaan. Mereka seharusnya melihat aktiviti ini sebagai satu proses pembelajaran yang harus dialami oleh semua orang sebagai sebahagian daripada proses kehidupan kita sebagai manusia.
