The Ministry of Education announced that Mathematics and Science will no longer be taught in English by Year 2012, it'll be bilingual until Year 2014 when every level has changed back into the original language. It'll revert to either Malay, Chinese or Tamil language. There's mixed reviews over it, but personally, I don't care. The fact that I'll end school next year, the news doesn't affect me at all. Still, I accept this news positively and hopes for the best.
I know many people went against this decision, most of them being those good in English and town people, thinking that reverting to Malay (or Chinese/Tamil) will make the country grow slow than others, I find that illogical. Exactly what does language have to do with economy, whatsoever? It's just a language. People can exchange business, trade, information in various kinds of languages. That's what language is. English is the global language but that doesn't mean everything is all English. Some countries don't even use English at all. The saying that the country will grow slower because Math & Science in Malay/Chinese/Tamil is stupid. Before the change from the three languages into English, you're saying the country is so low and people don't have the brains because they're no good in English?
People nowadays don't get it. They just speak what they think without thinking at all. Think of the previous generation who learn Math and Science in Malay, most of them are from rural areas, having to work hard to get a better future for themselves and they succeeded. The only people who learn things in English school are those who have the money. They have wealth, they don't need to work hard to get that money, they enter English school, that's why they're better in English. Not everyone is so lucky to be born in wealthy family, they need to work hard for themselves.
I'm lucky I have my parents, especially my mother who often tells me her experiences when she was a student. She's not born rich, she worked hard in her studies and she succeeded. From her stories, I learn the better way to think positively. There's always a good way in every decision we make. It's true, parents guide their children to be the better ones.
If you're good in English, you're not possibly good in Science and Math. Likewise, if you're good in Science and Math, you're not possibly good in English (or any other languages). The only thing I hate about people who brag about their English, they don't like that Science and Math changed to Malay but at the same time, when it's English, they still failed their Science subjects! Srsly, the only thing they're good in English is cursing and broken languages.
Cursing and broken languages? That isn't what I call good in languages. Hmph!
The PPSMI news is announced yesterday, so I thought I'll give my view. If people are wondering why nowadays I'm so positive and happy, it's because I have somebody older than me to guide my way. I often talk to my parents, so I know their story and reflect it back to the current time.

Anyway, I made some VK icons. The six icons came from a special art drawn by Hino-sensei, I heard it's featured in volume 10 so when I found volume 10 at KinoKuniya, I wanted to see if the card's there, xD. Sadly, I cannot see anything thanks to the plastic. I don't remember where I found a large scan of it, but well, it's pretty, so I coloured it, not complete though because I only coloured the face and hair, xD.
Comment if you take. Feel free to hotlink, it's from ImageShack. Please credit me!
And I'm so sorry that Zero looked awesomely weird. Don't blame me, it's the art itself. Somehow I feel Zero as out of place with his body placed like that. Or maybe when resized, his face looked different. Kaname too. Hino-sensei placed too much screentones on him that it's hard to colour him properly. Only Yuuki turned out well and somehow she's like eating a strawberry cake. :D
