YES DEAR - 25 Aug 2008

A Million Dollar Lesson
by : Petey Parker

A cab driver taught me a million dollar lesson in customer satisfaction and expectation. Motivational speakers charge thousands of dollars to impart his kind of training to corporate executives and staff. It cost me a $12 taxi ride. I had flown into Dallas for the sole purpose of calling on a client. Time was of the essence and my plan included a quick turnaround trip from and back to the airport. A spotless cab pulled up.

The driver rushed to open the passenger door for me and made sure I was comfortably seated before he closed the door. As he got in the driver's seat, he mentioned that the neatly folded Wall Street Journal next to me for my use. He then showed me several tapes and asked me what type of music I would enjoy.

Well! I looked around for a "Candid Camera!" Wouldn't you? I could not believe the service I was receiving! I took the opportunity to say, "Obviously you take great pride in your work. You must have a story to tell." "You bet," he replied, "I used to be in Corporate America. But I got tired of thinking my best would never be good enough. I decided to find my niche in life where I could feel proud of being the best I could be.

I knew I would never be a rocket scientist, but I love driving cars, being of service and feeling like I have done a full day's work and done it well. I evaluate my personal assets and... wham! I became a cab driver.

One thing I know for sure, to be good in my business I could simply just meet the expectations of my passengers. But, to be GREAT in my business, I have to EXCEED the customer's expectations! I like both the sound and the return of being 'great' better than just getting by on 'average'" Did I tip him big time? You bet! Corporate America's loss is the traveling folk's friend!
Lessons:
· Go an Extra Mile when providing any Service to others.
· The is no good or bad job. You can make any job good.
· Good service always brings good return.

PMR & SPM Trial - Melaka



GOOD LUCK TO ALL FORM 3 & FORM 5 STUDENTS. DO YOUR BEST.

The Olympic is just over, but there's something we all can learn from it. Here is what I found on the internet.

An Olympic Lesson in Motivation:

The saying goes: The expert in anything was once a beginnerin everything. Truer words were never spoken. But this isn't what we see. This isn't what we feel when we watch these Olympians. It isn't what we think when we watch any expert or great success. We see the finished product, shining brightly in designer packaging. We see triumph and achievement, not training. We see the riches, not the rags. And this, as much as anything else, is why motivation - that inner drive that carries us toward all we desire - continuesto escape us. Today that comes to an end. Today I will open your eyes to a new way of viewing the changes you wish to carry out and the challenges that are attempting to stop you. The Olympians we admire might possess unique physical talentand natural gifts, but that inner fire that compels them forward is within us all. It's time to set it free.

A Visit To The Happiness Centre


On 8th July 2008,48 members of the English Language Society with our teacher advisor, Mrs. Ivy visited the Happiness Centre For The Mentally Disabled Children in Klebang. As soon as we arrived, we were given a short briefing by Mr. Roy the founder of the centre. He was very thankful for the 16 packets of diapers which we donated. For your information, the ELS members have been collecting old newspapers from the classes since April. The money to buy the diapers came from the sale of the newspapers.

What we learnt from our visit?

There are 32 children at the centre. The oldest is a 33 year old boy and the youngest is a 5 year old boy. Only 4 of them are able to walk while the rests are bed- ridden. 9 children are regarded critical cases. They cannot walk and are 100% dependent on people to feed and bath them. Most of these children have multiple disabilities meaning that they have more than one disability ranging from blindness, deaf, dumb, epilepsy, down syndrome, mentally retarded and cerebral palsy. There are 6 parents who visit their children once a month while the rests of the parents only come once a year during festive celebration such as Chinese New Year, Hari Raya, Deepavali and Christmas.

We now, would like to share with you some of the reasons why these children are mentally disabled.

According to Mr. Roy,
Firstly, young unmarried girls, when they discovered they were pregnant, they tried to abort the foetus by taking all kinds of drugs and traditional herbs and in so doing has caused birth deformities.
Secondly, young mothers who in their quest to be slim and attractive tried all kinds of so called miracle products which unintentionally affected the foetus.
Thirdly, during child birth complication occured.

What we did there?

We played, talked and even sang with the children. Even though they are disabled children, they love visitors so much and were happy to take photographs with us.

Our feelings when we left.

We realized how lucky and thankful we are to be able to see, speak, hear, walk and run. In addition, community awareness is still lacking. Lastly, there is so much more we can do towards community service.

Trial exams and Test 2

Good luck and try your best especially in answering English papers.

Nothing to Fear

There's nothing to fear ---
you're as good as the best,
As strong as the mightiest, too.
You can win in every battle or test;
For there's no one just like you.
There's only one you in the world today;
So nobody else, you see,
Can do your work in as fine a way:
You're the only you there'll be !

So face the world, and all life is yours
To conquer and love and live
:And you'll find the happiness that endures
In just the measure you give;
There's nothing too good for you to possess,
Nor heights where you cannot go:
Your power is more than belief or guess
--- It is something you have to know.

There is nothing to fear --- you can and you will.
For you are the invincible you.
Set your foot on the highest hill ---
There's nothing you cannot do.
