i totally rubbish at poems! but since miss shafika said it can be as rubbish as rubbish bin so there you go... hehehe.

okay, gtg! going to get tea, da milky one :) and some keropok lekor. bye.

ps: i forgot da question, so i dont know if my

poem has met da criteria or not. sorry miss s!

Mouse is.. just... confusing!

In my last bel class we talked about singularplural-rules. And then we came across this cofussion:

MOUSE and COMPUTER MOUSE

so what do u think? usually the plural for mouse is mice right? then what about computer mouse? is it computer mice? or computer mouses?

hmmmm. i need an english expert! i dont even know what's da answer. hehehe are u thinking what im thinking? :DD YEAH LETS GOOGLE IT!

OKAY, so based on da internet:

• some said usually computer companies use 'mouse devices' to avoid this sticky arguments.
• some also said using computer mice is alright.
• another some said the acronym for mouse is "manually-operated-user- select-equipment" it should be pluralised as 'mouses'

right.. so da conclusion is this word: mouse makes people go bananas! lol :P

check this out:

Wiki(i know wiki cant be trusted but hey, they still got a point)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mouse_(computing)#Naming

and check this as well, (people arguing about it and read it till da end okay? because im sure u'll get confused as i am hehe :D)http://painintheenglish.com/?p=534

But in my opinion it would be 'mouses' coz what i mean by mouses is devices, not real mouse/mice. but mice is fine somehow as long as people know what we mean. Plus we havent got any official ruling aite, thus use any!(errr..i guess) hehehe.

My first Bel Class :)

U know what, IT WAS AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE! .......

nah jk jk! hahaha. :P

Right after having my 'superbly late breakfast' @ 945AM (according to mommy ) with friends @ one stop, i was rushing through my way to da class. To be frank, it was a familiar rush since i am no where near da word 'early', totally rubbish at it hehehe :P I seriously thought there will be no lesson like all those yesterdays, so i walked into the classroom with an empty mind,(but not so empty-belly lol) chit-chatting with my friends like usual. But then our mysterious 'MR BEL' came in and guess what? our 'MR BEL' is a she!

She's quite petite with straight hair and wearing purplish blue..err is it green? baju kurung with those retro glasses. my guess is she's somewhere around 20-25 years old.. right miss? I am sure ur reading this:) and and she looked like our age really! if i didnt know she's a lecturer there i'd assumed she's my senior. The class began with getting to know each other backgrounds. em well not really a background background, just a tiny weenie bit of background like nicknames, where we're from and our perceptions towards english.. hmmmm thats enough to make me go white really!

Later,

She wanted to test our speaking and gave us 10 mins to think what or how do we see ourselves as a thing? as a butterfly? as a tree? as a radio? anything! riiiggghhhhtttt.... that made me turned even whiter! nervous attack! help! " i think i can see myself as a spoon because i love eating foods so much. if i only have rm 5 in my pocket i'll spend it all on foods eventho i know i wont have nothing left, that is how i love foods so much" that was what i supposed to say but i lost my words when i was trying to explain it further, it got stuck somewhere in my throat, fortunately she helped me finishing my words :) overall, my 1st bel class was pretty interesting and fun! she got this..err.. friendly kind of-teachings to make us listen and learn and laugh out loud :)
