Recently in class, we had to make a presentation about our city. We had to research about the history, vegetation, environmental factors, facts, etc. For me, my hometown is Busan, South Korea. It's a great that we had to find some facts about our city because I didn't really know lot's of information about Busan except for the history...
For my powerpoint, I did awesome for my presentation since I put all the information that was required to get A+. I've experienced presenting in front of everybody and most people get very nervous. But I don't really get nervous because I'm a man. My mother usually tells me to have a loud clear voice, eye contact,etc. I've couldn't actually hear the person speaking and some people talk while they look at their powerpoint. Another positive thing I've done is entertaining the class. I've put a movie trailer of "Haeundae" to entertain the guests to make them bored. Lot's of people were amazed of my powerpoint!
I hope in the future that I can decrease the amount of time that my powerpoint took and put more information for my powerpoint. The reason why I chose putting more information for my powerpoint is because I didn't really have that information for my environmental factors. I had only 3 paragraphs for my environmental factors... I chose decreasing the amount of time that my powerpoint took because it took for like 7 minutes. In the future, I hope that I can accomplish these improvements in the future.
The things I've learnt are the food, history, population,attractions, etc. The food is very interesting because it makes me hungry and it's very famous. Some examples are roti canai, nasi lemak, strudels, etc. The reason why I chose history is because I am clueless of the history of some cities (Examples: Scotland, Australia,etc). Some knowledge that I've gained is that Malaysia was controlled over by the Japanese, and the British. The population is amusing because I've never known that my city's population is 3,593,498.
My analysis for my powerpoint is very good. I've completed the requirements for the powerpoint, and added graphics. I had a clear voice, good eye contact, sources,etc. As I said before, I totally aced this assignment because I've completed the requirements. This is one of my favorite assignments because you can learn about other people's cities.

New Years Resolutions for 2011
My two New Years resolutions are learning about Lego robotics and aim to get good grades. The reason why I have chosen learning about Lego robotics is because I can learn more about Lego. Recently, I have gone to a Lego competition called "BattleBot". It's where you make Lego robots that fight each other.There are three ways you can win over a round which is knocking over the robot, immobilizing it, and pushing it over the battle arena. Luckily, my team, KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) went to third place. I am hoping to learn more about Lego robotics so that I can do better in the 2011/12 BattleBot competition. (If you want more details, please scroll down).
My second New Years resolution is getting good grades. My reason is because my parents want me to get good grades. If all my grades are around A-, I can get a gift from my parents. In the first trimester, my grades were excellent until I got a B+ for science. My parents don't really care about other grades except for humanities since humanities is daily. So far, my grades are excellent but I need to improve my science grade. The gift that I really want is my own personal bass clarinet. Although it's expensive, there are some positive things about getting a bass clarinet. The positive things are not having to carry it around, and not having to pay for the bass clarinet that I have to rent.
As I said before, I went to "BattleBot" over the holidays. "BattleBot" is a place for you to experience Lego and robotics and earn lot's of cash and prizes. On January 8th, me and my friend, Nick Chen went to Bangsar Village to enter the "BattleBot" competition. My friend and I had been to a camp where we gained the knowledge of Lego parts, and making our own robots. There were four different groups which were A,B,C,and D. Our team, KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) was in group C. We won three times but lost two times. The top two teams were the ones that were qualified to the quarter finals. The team, A.R managed to go to the quarter finals, but our team and two other teams were tied with 9 points. So we had to weigh our robots on the scale. The first team weighed 477 grams and our team weighed 457 grams and the last team weight 472 grams. We were qualified to the quarter finals! Our team managed to go to the semifinals but failed to continue. As the result, we were third place. Nick and I received 75 rm (Malaysian currency), a box of Lego, and some books. My father was proud of me in that day.
On Christmas, my family went to Kuantan for 4 days and 3 nights. We travelled to Kuantan by car for around 3 hours.We had to wake up in the morning at 10am. My little brother and I slept in the car, played board games, listened to music,etc. By the time we arrived there, I was exhausted. Later on, my family went to the beach. We played football (soccer) and swam in the sea. In soccer(football), me and my little brother were teams. The point was until 5 and the score was 4:4. When my mother kicked the ball, I was just walking and thought that it was going to miss, but it was a goal. My little brother was blaming me for not blocking the ball. My family had gone swimming everyday in Kuantan. When it was time to go, my little brother and I hopped into the car and went back to KL. I really enjoyed my stay at Kuantan.
I hope you enjoyed my blog! :P This is a picture of me and Nick in the BattleBot competition.
