Himpunan Sajak-sajak Terpaksa Siri 1

Wayang Kulit

Dicipta daripada belulang
Menjadi mainan seorang Dalang
Dibelakang kelir Dalang bersila
Dengan bayang dia bercerita
Hikayat Ramayana menjadi pilihan
Tentang cinta dua insan
Wayang sekadar hiburan cuma
Untuk tatapan kepada semua
Satu kesenian tradisi kita
Kekal gemilang sepanjang masa

p/s: 1 minggu aku amik masa nak wat sajak ni..Bukti betapa tak puitisnya aku..Hahaha..Terpaksa beb..Nak tak nak kena buat jugak..Silalah komen..hahaha... (Devilish Laugh)

Read, read and read..Then?

It seems that this semester will be tougher than last semester..Eventhough I'm only taking 15 credit hours, but the subjects that I've registered requires a lot of reading..When I say a lot, I mean A LOT..Why so? Because this semester is all about Literature...Yes, Literature...The most feared part of learning a language by most of the language students...Especially me of course...The literature classes that I have to endure for this semester are:

1. A SURVEY OF PROSE FORMS & POETRY IN ENGLISH

For this subject, me and my colleagues will be looking at short stories, poetry and drama. Studies on the characters, plot, settings, point of view, etc..When I looked at the list of stories, I was like WTH!! So many things to read...There are 5 short stories (Eventhough it is called short stories but it's not really that short), 31 poems and 4 dramas to be read and studied...Reading is one thing, understanding it is another...So far we already did 2 short stories...And guess what? I don't understand a thing...hahaha...(Devilish Laugh)

2. EXPRESSION OF CREATIVE

When I registered this course, I was thinking that the class would be like doing some acting or art maybe..But I was wrong..This course is similar and different at the same time to the course above...We'll be doing on short stories, poetry and novel, still...But in Malay...There's no list of stories, poems and novel for this course...Probably because we have to write them ourselves..Again, WTH!! And my lecturer for this course is a Chinese, Dr. Lim Swee Tin...Can you imagine that, learning about our mother tongue from a non-Malay...But he's no ordinary guy...For those of you who wants to know him, just search for it yourself...

Since, I'm not much of a good reader and I'm so not into literature (neither Malay Literature nor English Literature)...I hope I can survive this semester...Let's keep our fingers crossed..
