Sex Education In School
Sex education should be implemented as a compulsory subject in school for every student. This is because the condition of the society nowadays are becoming worse day by day because of many sex related activity. Dumping baby, abortion and many more problems keep increasing at a very fast rate. Therefore, sex education should be implemented as a compulsory subject to teach each and every student about sex. Student should have right knowledge about sex. Problem that occuring now maybe because lack of information about sex and many people still does not know what is sex all about. A correct teacher and a complete syllabus about sex education should be formed so that the student can get enough and correct information about this in a right way. Parent should also be informed to tell their children about sex and do not corrupt their kid's mind with very wrong perception about sex. Even though there maybe some people that are against this idea and think that the society may become worse when such a young children already know about sex but I totally disagree with that. Everybody should have the knowledge and it depends on each person how do they want to use the knowledge.

Story about a Boy (Frankly,it is about the writer)
This is a story of a boy. He was born on 15th August 1991 in "Hospital Bersalin Kuala Lumpur" after a few times being transferred to several hospital because of personal problems (what a troublesome boy).
At last, he was successfully born at 8 am in the morning. "It is a boy!" said the doctor. "Such a healthy boy!" said the nurse. The boy's family was very happy and he was given a name, Hidayat.He had grown up without any health problem except one life annoying problem. He love to cry. To make it worse, he cry not in the day but in the night. Started from 8pm and continued until 6pm in the morning. Almost all doctors diagnosed that he does not have any health problem. In the end, his father brought him to a shaman. The shaman knows exactly what to do. He said, "People shouldcall this boy, Boy.". When he was brought home,people immediately call him Boy. And it worked! He does not cry anymore.
After growing up in Dusun Nanding for 5 years, his family migrated to Perlis which is their hometown. When he was 7 years old, he went to the same school where his mother work as a teacher. Scoring good marks through the entire 6 years in elementary school allowed him to go a good secondary school. That is not a full version.
This is a full version. First, he went to a school called "Sekolah Agama Islamiah Behor Mali" in Perlis. After that, he was transferred to "Sekolah Kebangsaan Putra" and lastly to "Sekolah Kebangsaan Utan Aji". That all happened when he was in standard 1. The same thing happened when he entered secondary school. He keep changing school and the last school was "MRSM Langkawi". His mother nearly fed up with his behavior but did not because he continue getting excellent marks in his studies.Well, maybe that is enough for the sensored part.
During his childhood, he loves to take part in many extreme games such as inline skating,BMX and also skateboard. When he was still playing rollerblade, he had cracked his skull after doing some tricks and his mother forbid him to play that thing again. After fully recovered, he played BMX and also nearly broke his ribs after falling from a ramp and also was forbid to do the same thing. Now, he just started to play skateboard and still playing because he still did not injured.
Now this boy is studying in KBU under JPA Scholarship and will continue his studies to Germany if he passed all of the exams with flying colors. Even though he is very busy doing all of the assignments, he keeps finding time to play skateboard and also studying.

1. How does the movie related to the theme of a journey?Every single movie in this world always tells us about some journey even the journey is not the journey of going from some place to other but also the journey of life where people changed trough out their life.This movie told us literally about a little girl journey when she had traveled from human world to spirit world after following her parent through some old and odd tunnel.She insisted of following them but she was afraid of being left alone in the car so she decided to follow them.When they reached in the spirit world,her parent had changed into pig after eating some spirit's food.That was the time when her journey really started.She had to go through all things in a totally different world from human world.She have became hard through out all the journey because she had learned how to work and to live on her own after her parent was not with her.In the end she successfully rescued her parent and went back to human world after all those opening eyes journey.
2. What is the main issue in the movie?
The main issue in the movie is how people must change and adapt to their new environment in order to live and survive and the important of love and kindness in someone heart.This is because only love can bring peace in the world.The movie also showed in a way that love is very important when love had make the boy wanted to help the little girl which is Jahiro,even in wil endangered his own life and reputation.After that,the movie also showed that the love of the girl for the boy helped to undone the spell that will cause the boy his life.
3. What quality do you admire or dislike in a character?
I like the personality of the girl,Jahiro because she is very hardworking,never give up and very kind.She continue to do every job that she was told to do even if the job is very hard and disgusting.She never give up on rescueing her parent even if it was very hard for her to do that in the foriegn world.Jahiro was also very kind to every body that she meet starting from helping the little creature lifting the coal,she was also kind for the Faceless Spirit even though she barely know that creature and she helped the boy to returned the Gold Seal and apologize from the owner of the Golden Seal,which is the Granny even that was not even her fault.
4. How does the movie help you understanding the world?
The movie helped me to understand that there is maybe so many more creature living in this world besides human and animal and we must respect every creature that exist in this world because they are also the god's creature and they maybe also living a life just as we do.The world is not always a kind and friendly place to live.Even when people do bad things to us,just let it go and continue to respect everybody and help everybody as long a we are able to do it.

People can vote and be drafted at 18.People can drink at 21.People can become a president at 35 and retire at 65.
2. Why do some people work past 65?
Many people continue to work because of the monay demanding life.Everything needs to be paid such as the health care cost.
3. What does the phrase " bursting with ideas"when he comes to work at the age of 86 implies about Mr. Harold Burson?
It implies that the people at the age of 86 can still work and give something for the company.
4. Give examples to show that American employees are workaholics by choice?
The phrase 'we let more than twice as many go unused' means that they choose not to take their holidays.

The tone of the writer maybe sarcasm.
6. What example is given to show that the grandparents of the present generation do not fit with the traditional stereotypical image of grandparents in the past?
The phrase 'when they call their 70-year old parents at the office and find they are just too busy to babysit their grandkids' shows that old people nowadays are not the same as the old days anymore.
7.Explain in your own words the sentence"it becomes clear that the traditional idea of "retirement"-with its gold watch,rocking chair,and golf course-is just about ready for retirement itself."
