Yes. There are many things that I have learn while doing this task. I got so many information based on my researching on the task given. Other than help me to improve on my understanding on how to use a proper grammar in my task, it also makes me to read carefully and give full attention to what I have read. So that I could get an exactly information for my task. While I am trying to complete this task, I have some difficulties that I could barely avoid. For examples I do not have broadband. This is hard for me to find information because in my hostel, I am the only person who didn't owned one.

TASK 7 ( Where is Love ? )


§  Nowadays, racism is rising across the world. This matter is really one of serious matter that always been rise and talking about by anyone and also in the cabinet. Racism is not good. It separates us from our neighbours. Community nowadays becomes diverse and split apart and rather go grouping together by their fellow races. Other than that, our sovereignty will be threatened. People outside there will take for granted when our unity unstable. Not only that, it is hard to develop in all sectors. If this happen our country’s economy will bring the country down. All sectors (economy, social, and politics) will be affected when the togetherness and understanding are no more because people can’t cooperate each other. Furthermore, country security will be threatened as well. When people outside take for granted, indirectly we will live a life that full with fear. So, based on all of these effects, I am very sure that every single of you don’t want to make all of these become a reality. People in our country will also have the effect. We don’t want to make history repeat right? 13th May 1969 is the most horrible tragedy that happens in our country because of racism. Many people die, loss of properties and misunderstanding between all the races. To overcome this issue firstly, respect others race. Don’t talk or rise something about others races. This issue is very sensitive issues. Then, parents should encourage their child to make friends with other races. Don’t be shy to learn about other cultures or races. Think wisely about what we are going to say about others races. Some people do fit stereotype, but majority of people are different.

TASK 6 ( Crazy Commercials )


§  Yes, we do live in unity as 1MALAYSIA. In Sabah whether we realise or not, we already live in it before 1Malaysia’s concept been introduced by our prime minister. Obviously, people in Sabah live under the same roof. As I can see, community in Sabah are all friendly. For example, when harvest festival was held at Hongkod Koisaan , KDCA(KadazanDusun Culture Association), there were many races, culture and colours. Aren’t they beautiful? Yes it is. It is beautiful and looks unique. Many people with different background work respectfully together to make the festival fun and meaningful. Isn’t it amazing? People from different race, culture or even religion can go to the festival and they can actually know the details about KadazanDusun’s culture and other races in Sabah. Usually the person who is in charge will put a lot of information about it. Furthermore, we also can see it through marriage. Nowadays, many people or family are mix. Meanings that, many were born as Sino, Kadazan mixed with Chinese and so on.

TASK 5 ( The Corpse Bride )


§      In life, everyone has their own dreams or goals. I also have a dream like everybody else. My dreams are, I want to be a professional finger-style guitarist and a successful physiotherapist. Its sounds crazy a little bit. But, I do want to be like what I have told just now. That’s my dream that I want to achieve in my life. I want to help people who are paralysed and give them advice and motivational so that they can accept the fact about it and support them to not giving up with their life. To achieve this goal, I will try my very best and give full attention and my commitment in my study. Instead of being physiotherapist, I would like to be just like my idol, Sungha Jung. He is very good in playing guitar. To be just like him, I am going to buy one acoustic guitar and practice on the chord and learn how to read a tab. I am going to put an effort on what I have dreamt for.

TASK 4 ( Unstoppable )


§     The Pursuit Life of Happyness is a biographical drama film based on a true story of Chris Gardner’s nearly one-year struggle with homelessness. Will Smith as Gardner and Jaden Smith as Gardner’s son, Christopher Jr. This film is about Chris Gardner and his son who were homeless. Chris tries to afford their lives with sell the portable bone-scanners which he tries to demonstrate and sell to doctors. The investment proves to be a white elephant but suddenly, financially breaks their family. Chris’s girlfriend leaves him and moves to New York. Christopher remains with his father. But his meeting with Dean Witter manager earns him to become an intern stockbroker. Chris and his son are evicted due to incapable paying the income taxes. Then, they stay in Glide Memorial United Methodist Church for a homeless shelter. Starting from there, Chris tries to change their lives. Regardless of his challenges, Chris never reveals his lowly circumstances to his co-workers. Concluding his internship, Chris is called into a meeting with his managers and been paid for his works and been offered the position. As for me, this kind of life is totally hard and I can’t even imagine how to be in Chris Gardner’s place. But still I want to say that, if I were in his place I will try my best to change my life to a better life. Try not to give up even it is harder and make me feel so down. I will never ever show to others that I am weak. It only makes others think I want to attract their attention by showing that I can’t go through my life. I will take every chance and challenges in my life, put a lot of effort on what I am doing and I am sure that all my effort will be paid after all the pain, hard moments, failure and challenges that comes to me.
