An Unthinkable Question In This English 1119 Module

-
Looks harmless enough on the outside... But on the inside...
 
I was in Barrymore Theatre today catching "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" with my 2for1 Broadway Week tickets when I saw a picture of a question from this book. It shocked & amused me. I felt compelled to forgo a good night sleep & immediately wrote about it when I got home.

Check out this unthinkable SPM model question:

I've been cetak rompaked, featured offline/online, & randomly uploaded onto a viral photo album. But, never in my wildest dreams, would I have conjured up the fantasy of being in a model question module!
HOHOHO!! Monumental! Thousands of students from over Malaysia will spend an incredibly significant amount of time, 5 seconds, thinking about what I've done!! HOHOHO!!
Can I recruit them to be unbelievable teachers with TFM? Maybe I can ask them for a 30th birthday gift?

Oh, don't bother trying to Google or Facebook search for the author because she does not exist online. Believe me. I've tried all sorts of internet wizardry. However, I did find out that she's a prominent writer of textbooks & reference books.

If you have her personal contact information, ask her permission & do contact me. I've yet to obtain this from my personal contacts. I would love to send her something from New York.

If you're reading this, ma'am, thanks for making my day!! =)

    Congrats on being featured, but the question requires very minimal thinking.

      Lol. LOTS or HOTS, really doesn't matter. How many people get featured in a reference book?

Dear English language teachers!
If you're like me, as in you have no clue what your CPT results are, I have good news for you! You can now check if you've got C1 or C2 here (http://apps.moe.gov.my/abpg/cpt/)!!
If you've got a A1-B2, your name will not appear in the list on the site.

This website was released early this week & already on the very day itself, this jungle teacher has received more than 5 notifications about it! BEFORE 8AM!!! Talk about an affective & efficient cascading model for the dissemination of knowledge amongst education professionals!
I've even had a strange lady spam my FB page for me to reveal my results! Thankfully, I removed the unsightly posts & will satisfy her curiosity here tonight!

Walaupun saya cuba sedaya upaya untuk meningkatkan kebolehan bahasa Inggeris saya, memang akan adanya banyak sesilapan & kekurangan juga. Selepas saya berkongsi tentang usaha saya untuk melibatkan murid-murid saya dalam kem BI, saya masih lagi dikecam oleh beberapa netizen dalam group ibubapa ini. Mungkin adanya rasa dendam daripada usaha saya untuk mempertahankan guru BI bukan opsyen awal bulan tadi: https://www.jarodyong.com/2019/12/teacher-was-cyberbullied-because-of-their-english.html

Saya juga telah menyeru agar semua pihak BLOCK laman-laman web yang mengaut keuntungan daripada isu viral tersebut: https://www.jarodyong.com/2019/12/laman-tersebut-untung-daripada-cyberbullying.html

What To Do When Your Unifi Service Suddenly Drops

After finally putting my kid to sleep, I was about to settle into the couch with my wife & stream a movie, when my Unifi fiber optic internet connection suddenly dropped. When it didn't come back after 1 hour, I realized that I had to do something. Considering that I pay my bills promptly every month, it must be a technical issue. Here's what I did to fix the problem. It look me less than 20 minutes.


1. First, I checked my modem (the white machine). I checked the lights on the modem. When the modem is functioning properly, lights will be on for POWER, PON, LAN1 & TEL1. If the red light for LOS lights up, call 100 to resolve the issue. Also, I made sure that all the wire connections were tight.


2. Next, I checked my router (the black machine). Again, I checked the lights. When the router is functioning properly, lights will be on for POWER, GLOBE, WIFI, LAN1. My POWER light was blinking, so that means that there was no internet connection. Again, I made sure that all th…

What To Do If You Miss A Megabus Ride & How Was The Ride

As an ESL teacher, it's a dream come true to attend the legendary TESOL convention. This year, it's in Baltimore, Maryland. Look me up if you're there too!
As a grad student, money is scarce & any kind of travel will need to be bootstrapped. So, I'm travelling by bus (4 hours) & staying at a hostel (in a bunk room).

Rushing from my last class of the day to the bus stop after saying goodbye to my beloved missus, I missed the bus by minutes. I actually watched the bus leave the stop with my friends (who were there much earlier) staring blankly at me behind the large windows as the bus bustled by. I was pissed. I was also wondering... what's next?

Sibu, Song & Kapit Express Boat Schedule

If you are not from the Kapit/Song/Belaga region, chances are you will not be familiar with the schedules of the express boat which are totally essential for travel.
And it gets really frustrating when you want to plan your journey & all you can rely on is the memory of a local who may or may not be accurate.
I sifted through a lot of gunk on the internet before I found a probably reliable schedule at sarawaknews.blogspot.com.

I've printed it out & pasted it on my wall.
Here's a copy of the schedule for your reference.

Vessel (From Sibu) ETD
