my first day in uitm


You are done with high school and are now in college or university as a freshman. What do you do? Will life be chill throughout your years in this new place? Will you have 3 classrooms of friends? Will campus life be fantastically memorable? Will everything fall into place like a perfect puzzle? Well at least that’s what all of us hope for. But the truth is, if you do not play your cards right, things may backfire and your college or university life may very well be your worst nightmare.

First, I want to have a great campus life, I have to start by interacting with people. Introduce myself to my classmates during my Economics class. Be approachable by swapping e-mail addresses and hand phone numbers. It’s simple. Always remember that all my classmates are around the same age as me. However, be very alert of people who want to be friends with me. There are many characters out there who want to mix with me for their personal advantage.

A guaranteed way to meet people of similar interests is to register myself with a club. Every college has popular clubs. Joining the Performing Arts Club in my university could be ideal way for me to continue me obsession with public speaking, meet dozens of people who share me passion.

The golden principle of sustaining a good campus life is to be myself. Noting is more evident to other that when someone who is putting on a show trying to impress others or be someone he or she isn’t. Having said all of the above, campus life can be a foreboding time if me cards right. The task of making friends in this new daunting environment can be quite challenging. To make it worse, our parents always remind us to focus on our grades and worry about our social life later. But truth is, as important as our academic achievements are, college is also about experiencing our independence and being the person me really want to be.

In conclusion, being a freshman is no time to stay indoors. Of course, it does not mean that I must neglect my studies.

Do children learn more quickly than adults?

Who learns faster – children or adults?
Small children seem to learn very quickly, while adults sometimes appear to lose the ability to pick up new subject such as languages, music, games, or computer programs. Children or adults make the best learners???

It is undoubtedly true that children seem to learn very quickly. In just a few years, they can learn how to play a musical instrument, speak one or even two new language, and deal with many subjects at school. They even have time for sports and hobbies; become experts in their favorite pastimes. However, how much of this is social pressure and how much is genetic? I am convinced that while children’s brains have a natural ability to absorb new information as part of their developmental growth, much of their achievement is because of social pressure. Schools force them to take many subjects. Parents force them to practice new sports or learn music. Even their playmates force them to become better at computer games or to read Harry Potter novels faster. In summary, children may enjoy learning, but their environment also is a big motivating factor.

Adults on the other hand are supposed to be poor learners. However, I disagree with people who say that adults cannot learn quickly. Adults have many skills that compensate for the decline in the ability of the brain to grasp and remember new material. They can organize their learning by setting times for reading or practice. They can build on skills and experiences they know already. Adults usually cannot learn to do ballet or to play the violin, but even despite these physical challenges, their motivation can often be higher than a child’s. Unfortunately, society does not encourage many adults to learn. People are busy with families and work, and some adults may feel that further learning is pointless, since they have already achieved many goals at work or their personal life.

In conclusion, I feel that we cannot generalize about children or adults being better learners. It depends on the situation and motivation of the person, and the level of enthusiasm he or she has for learning.
