FRGS
Today is the last day to submit the FRGS application. I am struggling doing it as my time running out.
coping strategies, communication access, student engagement, crisis period, B40 students.
Those are my keywords for FRGS. Hopefully I managed to submit today.
Binge Reading
I have been reading my student’s PhD proposal for several days. The proposal is good, but it is sooooooo lengthy. Can you imagine the proposal is of 113 pages…. piuhhhhhhh what a laborious reading task. Alhamdulillah, I managed to finish my binge reading series.
Found these old photos of Prof Theo Van Leeuwen
We had a workshop on Multimodality with Theo Van Leeuwen on 31/5/2011. Found these old photos shared by a colleague, Mr G. Thank you Mr G.

Binge reading is a common phenomenon to all academic staff when it comes to the end of a semester. The reading list will be as lengthy as it can be:
- PhD proposals
- Masters proposals
- PhD theses
- Masters theses
- loads and loads of assignments
Surah Al-An’aam – سورة الأنعام
˹Consider˺ the Day He will gather them ˹all˺ together and say, “O assembly of jinn! You misled humans in great numbers.” And their human associates will say, “Our Lord! We benefited from each other’s company, but now we have reached the term which You appointed for us.” ˹Then˺ He will say, “The Fire is your home, yours to stay in forever, except whoever Allah wills to spare.” Surely your Lord is All-Wise, All-Knowing.
Surah Al-Jinn – سورة الجن
And some men used to seek refuge with some jinn—so they increased each other in wickedness.
