Powerful presentation skill by Cik Lah and Puan Rusilawati

This duo is my super duper senior from UKM. they help us to increase our ability to perform public speaking..they teach us to talk to non human then a friend then inside our group and lastly in front of the whole class..speaking while giving a humor will be a+++...giving such example as Dr. Rozmey make our class more lively..For me the basic thing of public speaking is knowledge..everyone seems comfortable when they are talking about the topic that they are familiar with...everyone seems mumbling when they have no idea about the topic....basically its fun when we have to do activity..Hope there will be lots of activity for us towards the end....

Proposal!!

im not talking about marriage proposal ok..im talking about the proposal for work such as business proposal, research proposal etc. we are learning how the proposal should have been done..make sure the idea that come out is suitable with our ability to prepare not forgetting the budget...my gruo PECAH MENTAL sdn bhd has come ot with ARTIFICIAL PETROLEUM. This idea came out from the way how they make an artificial diamond only in 2 months instead of 2000 years. we wanted to build the machine that will include fischer-tropchs process...Producing petroleum from organic waste..thus decreasing the rate of waste while producing an eco-friendly petroleum..Since petroleum is non renewable source i hope that our proposal can help the world while making us rich...hehehehehehehe...

MEETING + RESUME + COVER LETTER

9th december-conducting and effective meeting (Prof Khir)

Listening to Prof Khir, i realize that there is so much new stuff to learn in conducting a meeting. i thought that it is easy to have a meeting..Usually when i have a meeting it always about :
-gather everyone around
-find a nice place
-usually we were inform about a meeting 1 hour before the meeting (biase meeting tu cm tbe jah)
-no written agenda
-talk 1 agenda n then chit chat (gossip je la)
-close meeting then baru ckp bnde yg x puas ati luar meeting
From this session i learn that meeting is very important, the notice,the minute meeting and even how to end a meeting..For this class there is so much input to talk about..but i learn alot =)

10th December- Resume and cover letter (Mdm Farah and Mdm Liza)

here's an enjoyment. this duo will always give us an interesting class..now i know the truth behind an interview. it was so shocked to know that we have only 45 sec to obtain the interviewers interest to see our resume..learning how to write and interesting resume is so important. i hope that now my resume will be more eye-catching. i never written a cover letter. so thanx mdm farah and mdm liza for teaching me.

~The Art Of Public Speaking~

Most people are afraid to talk in front of an audience maybe because they arent confident, not language literate or simply because they are not well known about the topic that they have to speak about. I was one of them. I usually get scared when i have to speak up in front of  people whom i dont know. My style is i will build my confidence once i am comfortable with the environment and the people. I am quit a chatter box when speaking informally. But when i have to talk in front of a class, i start to stutter.

My first impression about En. Hisham is he is very funny. He reminds me about 'Harith Iskandar'. Maybe this is because of his appearance. He knows really well how to get connected with us immediately. It makes us comfortable and we began to talk confidently to him.

There are many important things that i learn from him and miss Nani. We were given a task to draw what picture came out of our mind. I drew a lollipop. There were 10 people who had been choosen to talk for 5 minutes about their drawing. Its interesting to know what people have to say spontaneously. I dont know if I had reach the level of confidence to talk like them.

For the evening session, each groups were given an item to present anything about the item in front. Since this is a public speaking class, everyone i mean everyone have to talk at least for a minute. Our group, 'pecah mental' received an iphone 4. we act as  a family travelling in 'alphard' to go to opah's house. In the car we all try to use the iphone by secretly telling the audience about the iphone's function. We were labelled the fun group. Maybe because all of our team members are playfull. I was praised by En. Hisham because he told me i have a good projection of voice and my acting skills are quite good. Maybe for anyone it is just a simple praise. But for me, it really make my day and now i feel more comfortable and confident to speak to the public.
