*My FAVOURITE place

Well, I don't exactly have a favourite place.....................I guess it would have to be my home. I feel most comfortable at home; I can scream, shout, play music at the top volume.........whatever. I can play with my rats , or talk to family members. You don't need to be in your best behavior or be all quiet.
I love my home because it has the atmosphere that other places don't. Actually, I find that my favourite place would be my HOME and not my HOUSE. I am always moving house and I guess it's the atmosphere and that kind of thing not so much the building itself that makes it so.....home-ish................well, to me.

(By the way, what do you think teachers gain from giving us loads of homework???)

Sports Day

Today was Sports Day! It was super hot and the sun kept shining in my eyes.
I ran for the 100m girls and the 4 x 100m girls(4th runner).And guess what? I/my team was FIRST for BOTH! Yay! ( I was really scared before the races.............)
(I'm in 5 Intermingling B.) :)

*CreAtivity

I think that creativity is say 60% inborn and 40% taught. Creativity is having new ideas and how people express their personality in different ways. If you are talking about being good at writing and drawing that is mostly a gift that you are born with, but some kinds of creativity can be nurtured.

For instance, if you have some skill at drawing and your parents are very supportive and send you for classes and always encourage you, then you will probably get better (if you have the will). :)

*Courtesy.............?

Part 1: My experience of courtesy
I don't think Singaporeans are very courteous. When I go to England I notice that people are more courteous there. But in Singapore people are not so courteous and friendly and I admit I am sort of like that too. But in England I feel more like being courteous because the atmosphere is more courteous there and people are nice and friendly and more polite.
I'm not saying that Singaporeans are not friendly, but they are always in a rush and don't have time to be very polite. So I just blend in and am not so polite, basically because I can't really be bothered. Hee hee........

Part 2: What courtesy means to me
Hmmm......................... As I said in Part 1 I am not exactly the most courteous person on earth, but I guess courtesy to me means polite behaviour and generally being nice and friendly. Also formal behaviour as you would behave on a formal occasion.

Ballet Exam

I just had my Grade 4 ballet exam five days ago. My examiner was called Ms Truffi from Brazil. She was quite pretty and nice and had red hair. I made so many horrible mistakes! Boo hoo hoo........ :( After my exam Miriam and I had double scoop chocolate ice cream from Happy Kappy. :) Oh well, that's all, I hope I pass.

*The Holidays

Hi all! I haven't really been doing much this holiday.....................was a bit blah (boring). I will describe what I did very briefly. So I'll start from Monday. On Monday, as most of you would know if you are in 5I or GEP class, we went for the Chinese Language Camp in Rosyth School which, no offence to anybody, was extremely boring. Bleargh! And all I got was a Hello Kitty notebook, a pen and a pencil. Tuesday I as well as some others went to a debating competition, but I wasn't debating I was just a non-participant, as they called me. Led by Madam Rosaidah and Clement's father, we went to Hwa Chong Institution. As usual, there were lots of talks about debating techniques.......................... In the first round (motion: This house believes that handphones do more harm than good) Team A (opposition) was against Fairfield Methodist and we won! Sadly, Team B (proposition) lost to Radin Mas Team A. In the second round (motion: this house believes that parents must be held responsible for the wrongdoings of their children) Team A lost to Casuarina Primary School. Also, my tooth fell out in the middle of the debate! Hee hee.............. I saw Vienna, my friend who changed to Nanyang because of the GEP, so that was nice. On Thursday Melissa came over to complete our YOG project. On Sunday my friend Miriam came over to practise ballet because our ballet exam was coming up very soon, and I'll tell you about that in another post.
The End

*Can you love an object more than your family?

An object cannot be more valuable than a family member, because a family member can care for you whereas an object is inanimate and has no feelings.

If my house were on fire I would not care about my possessions even if they were valuable or expensive, because people (and animals) are more important than things.

Say for example you lost a lot of money, you might be able to earn it back, but once a family member (including pets) dies, you will never be able to see or speak to the person again on earth.

$1000000 might seem like a lot of money, but a person is worth much more than that.

*Dream.......!

1. I wish to live in England with Elsha & Cheddar (I hope you know who they are by now). But then I suppose I would have to build a teleporter so I could visit all my friends in Singapore and vice versa. I want to live in England because it's fun and all my relatives are there. You can do fun stuff like horse riding and there are all kinds of lovely places you can go to, unlike Singapore which can get a bit boring. I think the weather there is just right. I would like to see spring and autumn, which is difficult at the moment because of school.

2. I wish I had more time to learn a new skill. Since I already know how to knit perhaps I could learn how to make bigger things/projects.

3. I wish I had green fingers and a garden with a nice pond with loads of space for my rats to run around. I would arrange my plants, herbs and flowers in such a way that it would look nice and attractive with bright colours.

4. I wish I had the opportunity go on a safari in the African grasslands to see giraffes, elephants and other animals up close in their natural surroundings and not in a zoo.

5. I wish I was better at science and could study things like biology, zoology and botany.

6. I would like to have the opportunity to go round the world to see other cultures (and go on their rollercoasters).

( These 'wishes' are not arranged in any order of preference.)

Reminder

Please do not post mean things about other people or any kind of hurtful thing.
Also NO bad words. I will remove any comment that is not appropriate.

11 is a dreaded number

Today I just turned 11 (more specifically around 8.30pm)............
that means no more 10-ish stuff :(
Oh well.............
I seriously DO NOT want to turn 11,but I already have so what can be done?
Being 11 means that in just 2 years I will leave my childhood(practically)and become a horrible 'I think I'm so cool' adolescent (teenager).
Let me warn U:
11 is a dreaded number.(It's also a prime number but what difference does that make?)
But HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me all the same. :)

*P5 Camp

I think the camp was brilliant!There were so many fun activities.
I know a lot of you are complaining about the toilets,dorms etc., but come on, this is camp! I was in group 17 so we had to perform the cheer by ourselves.
Our trainer's name is Je'taime:'I love you' in french.I think the food they gave was
ok......Some days it was really nice, but others they gave us spicy food and, no offence, I detest spicy food.
No such thing as toads or frogs in our dorm(4) and we slept really late and some girls kept waking me up..............

I do think the management should do something about the locks in the girls' bathroom. And the shirts were huge. (It was very sandy),but I l-o-v-e-d the songs and cheers and the claps we learnt.

The showers weren't that bad.In fact, I quite enjoyed the cold water. Camp chief Mac and the Trainers were really funny.

I hope all of you had fun........

(This would be my longest post so far in the history of my blog.So please forgive for any grammar,spelling etc. mistakes)
