Hello Dr. Izaham, my name is Nor Faridah Junaidi and you can call me Fyd. I used to blog a bit on "Friendster" previously but not too keen on writing that much though. Always feels like I need to express myself more but not having too much free time to do so. Today, I'm blogging here, since it is required in this course and I'm glad I did. ;) Talking about computers, well basically everyone is familiar with Microsoft Office (word,powerpoint,excel) and so do I. I used to download songs, videos, etc during my free time. But being a student practices me to be close to this useful technology and I make use of it mostly in the academic field.

The fun part of this technology is that I get the chance to edit pictures, create, cut or edit songs as ringtones. I used "Switch " most of the time when it comes to edit songs, "Adobe Photoshop" to add more colours or fun to my pictures, "iTunes" to download my favourite songs and burn it in a CD; and not to mention pumping out tons of images out of "Yahoo", "Google",etc. It's so much fun and plus, it's easy and FREE! ;) My favourite activity involves watching the latest make up tips on "You Tube" and laughing at hilarious clips or videos on "Metacafe" besides buzzing friends in "Yahoo Messenger". I love fashion, gossips, health tips, crafts and arts too. This helps heal boredom and keeps stress away for me. ;p Apart form that, I express myself better and find it so useful in daily life especially whenever the dark cloud overshadows my head. You get better without even knowing it. When there's "Friendster", "Facebook", "My Space", "Hi5", "Tagged", etc, there's so much friends that I could talk or refer to.

No I do not have the chance to use any means of technology during the practicum session. The school was lack of the facility despite being highly recognised as Selangor Sport School, well I guess all the money goes to the field though. ;) Nevermind that, I made full use of the exercises in handouts and crack my head to come out with interesting activities in the lesson plan.

Educational websites are very useful as my references, be it for asignments or during my practicum. I' glad it provides me the tips, exercises and samples to be used in the learning process. Glad it did ;)

That's all for now, Dr. Izaham. ;)
