Kindness

2009-04-05T19:18:00.002+08:00

I think that kindness means the act of doing something good to people out of goodwill in times of needs such as helping a blind man cross the road.
I think that kindness is very important as it helps to make life pleasant for everyone.
We can show kindness in various ways, one such example is letting a pregnant woman to have a seat on the bus or the MRT.
I think that Singaporeans are not gracious enough as I often see people acting to sleep or feign ignorance on the bus or MRT when they see someone with disabilities.I think that Singaporeans can be more considerate whenn met with such situations.
Zipping around with kindness for everyone
Apologising when i'm in the wrong
Noting the help given by others
Enjoying spreadingthe kindness message around

Reflection to the History Museum

2009-04-05T18:46:00.003+08:00

At first, i thought that museums would be boring , however, when i first stepped into it, i felt that it was more than a museum. In fact, it was very 'high-tech'. ^.^ There was a device called a Companion which replaces the tour guide. just type in a number found on floors or on displays and press the 'go' button to hear more about it.
I think that it is important to have a museum as the younger generations will be able to know the past lives of people or etc. and know what happened in the past (eg. WW2).
I enjoyed the trip very much and one thing that interests me the most is the Companion. I think that the Companion is very high-tech as mentioned and helps me to understand more about the displays.
I learnt about the olden fashion of clothes such as dresses in the 1970s and how designers got their inspirations from.

CA1 CLASS TEST 1

2009-03-11T09:04:00.002+08:00

I am still far away from my TARGETS an d i feel very bad about my results now. I will continue to study hard and read more books. i think that the main reason is that the papers are difficult and i think that i do not have much time to study as too many stay-back dates. i will try and spend some of my free time to not go swimming and use the time to make up for the loss of time.

Singapore Education System

2009-02-25T09:16:00.002+08:00

I agree with the article on the positive side. Ithink that we are trained on exam-smart and the weakness of the system is that we are only trained to tackle diffiuclt problems, not those critical think skills problems or those questions that require you to think "out-of-the-box" questions. I think that the Ministry can include more learning journeys and reduce the number of exams/tests that we take each year. I think that it is because foreigners trust that Singapore has a strong education so they come to Singapore to study despite the many criticism

Activities Outside School

2009-02-18T09:12:00.004+08:00

I normally go for swim after school and if i am lucky, my dad brings me out for fishing during Saturdays and Sundays. i occasionally play tennis with my uncles on Sundays too. =)

I spend about 2 hours for playing tennis and swimming but the duration varies when fishing.=p

Swimming and playing tennis helps to keep me fit while fishing trains my patience.

The activities above do not affect my studies and i do not feel stress. In fact, I feel relaxed.....

More people should do outdoor activities as they are "Good For Health".)

Reflection on 'Sleepy Kids'

2008-07-21T20:44:00.003+08:00

I have about 9.5 hours of sleep each day from 9pm-6.30am and i think that it is enough. Nomally my parents force me to sleep on 9pm but during Fridays and Saturdays, i can stay up to 10pm only.The only thing that keeps me awake at night homework, homework and homework. I think that I do not have much things to do at home(except for homework). I think that the best way parents can make their child sleep early is by 'rewarding' them by letting them do fewer homework and things like that.

Cyberbullying

2008-07-17T10:50:00.004+08:00

I think cyberbullying is only for cowards as they usually 'bully' people by spreading rumours or display hatred by posting messages. Those people that bully usually are being bullied themselves by other people. Cyber bullying are for COWARDS. In my opinion, people cycberbully is because......

a)They were bullied before.
b)They were provoked by someone.
c)They bully for fun.

I would tell the victims to stay away from websites such as Facebook. Blogger , Friendster for the time being until they stoping posting rumours.

Holiday In Hong Kong

2008-03-14T14:00:00.007+08:00

Day 1

I am now wating for my flight, using the Changi Airport's free internet access to write this......Wow! the flight was a rocky one, I experienced an turbulance which is called "crashing into clouds".The food served on the plane was okay......just a plate of veggies w pork rice/mutton rice. The meal also comes with a cup of orange juice and a piece of hard bread.When we arrived in HK , there was something like ear pressure when I "climbed" a mountain using a cable car.It was very painful......The hotel I was staying in was NATHAN HOTEL.

Day 2

Day 2 was terrible. I had a sore throat and when I swallowed my own saliva, my throat seems to have something poking at it. At the evening, I went to visit my relatives in HK. My father says that his granduncle is still alive which is my great-granduncle.My great granduncle is very lively and kept on entertaning us with jokes.;)

it was very funny......

Day 3

Day 3 was okay except for my throat.I "went" on a vegeterian diet the whole day as there was only vegetables......I MISS MEAT!!!! In the afternoon, I went to a veggie restaurant and ate something which quite looks look like meat. It was delicious!

Day 4

Day 4 was the funniest day I had throughout the trip. I was walking down the streets when I saw a sign that says (In Chinese)‘小心地滑’. They translated it as "Beware of Land Slide". I laughed and laughed until the food that I had ordered arrived, in a restaurant.

Day 5

Today I went to Disneyland Resort. I sat on the Space Mountain Roller Coaster. It was very scary and the sound effects made it even scarier.Both my sister, Jancy and my cousin,Kelly cried after the ride.It had a 45 degree turn at certain parts of the rides.The whole place was very dark......I went to the Light Buzzer ride later on and i used the gun provided to shoot down as many Evil Robots as possible.My score was:244600, Rank: Space pilot, L.v.4.

Day 6

Today my sore throat was even worse. I ate HK Dim Sum for breakfast and nothing for lunch as we woke up late. After the walking down the streets shopping, my father took me to a clinic. The doctor prescribed some pills for my throat. I felt better now.I went to Macau today and it was quite boring.......

Day 7

Today was my cousin's birthday and we intend to celebrate his birthday when we arrive in Singapore today.I ate dim sum with my grandparents this morning. After that,we went back to the hotel and packed our luggage.We checked out of the hotel and went to the airport in HK.The ride back to S'pore was a smooth one. There was only an air turbulance and my leg was numb. I bought a soccer T-Shirt that says :'KUYT 9 KNVB. I realised that they are more hardworking then Americans. They worked from morning to 'morning'.They are still working at 11 p.m. whili Americans stop at 5 p.m. Thats All!!!!
