REWARD TIME FOR STUDENTS IN MY ENGLISH CLASSES

 


It was time to give away rewards to two groups of students in classes which I teach English, namely 3 Sin and 3 Tan of SMK Dato' Jaafar. 


The first group comprised of students who scored A for their First Test for English many months ago.


While the second group were students who managed to complete the many English exercises given in their Google Classroom group from March to June.







I hope this small gesture could motivate these boys to work harder and be more serious with the English lessons. There should be more rewards awaiting after the Mid Term Exam.

ATTENDING THE WEDDING RECEPTION OF MR. MUTALIB AMAT SAIRIN


Mr. Mutalib Amat Sairin, another ex-student of SMK Taman Universiti, held his wedding reception today for the groom's side. His mother, Puan Fabilah Baharom, is also an ex-colleague of the same school. In fact, we had worked together in the same school when I was first posted to SMK Gelang Patah.


The venue of the reception was at DCM Hall in Taman Universiti.




As expected, there were quite a number of ex-students and ex-colleagues who were in the hall when I arrived.

The groom's three other siblings also attended the same school. This was the time all the four of them could be photographed together with me.

THE GASTRONOMIC ADVENTURE AT THE AIRPORT


         15th JULY 2023    ~ When you had nothing else to do while waiting for your flight at the airport, the best thing would be to find a seat in a restaurant and gastronomic adventure should happen.




At 9:00 p.m. however there was no more Nasi Kandar on the shelves. I was happy with the Roti Canai and Teh Tarik I got before boarding time. Nasi Kandar Line Clear should be one of the prominent Nasi Kandar restaurants in Penang.






That should conclude my short trip to Penang and Kedah this time, and hopefully there will more trips to Penang International Airport after this.

THE NIGHT MARKET IN JALAN MAHKAMAH, BAYAN LEPAS


15TH JULY 2023 ~ To find out there was a night market near the hotel where we were staying brought some kind of excitement. There was no reason not to go especially when the airport was near the hotel too and there would be enough time to catch the flight later in the evening.

This night market should be popular among the locals by looking at the crowd when I was there at about 6 p.m. My friend was telling this place is called Jalan Mahkamah in Bayan Lepas.




There were too many food items that I would love to buy but I was still full after eating the Prawn Noodles like 2 hours before that [READ HERE]. I would sure visit this night market if I were to stay at the same hotel when I am in Penang next time.
