Reflection 2: My dream

My dream is to become a national swimmer like Tao Li because I like to swim and has a great intrest in swimming. This dream allows me to gain glory for me and let my parents be proud of me because I started swimming when I was 6. I plan to go for training more about 3 to 4 times a week to get into the Olmpics or any other important competitions. I think people should have dreams so that there is a goal in our life.

Personal Response 1: Racial Harmony

3. a) I think racial harmony is a time when people from different religion communicate, make friends with each other and study/work together.
b) Misunderstanding can cause quarrels, fights and or maybe the chinese, indians, malays and eurasians might have their own town in Singapore like back in the 1980s.
c) If there are no races, other people could not know each other's traditional food, clothes and rituals.
d) We can encourage them by playing together, helping them and studying together.
e) We should organise games, talk about each different race and their culture

Reflections 1: Looking Foward

Phew! The exams are finally over! I did very bad for Maths and Science while good for English and Chinese. I felt that I can do better and by doing that, I got to cut down the time playing and watching television. In class I should also pay more attention and talk less in class. My parents are not satisfied with my current marks. I also need to be doing more assement for the coming Semestral Assement 1 and PSLE the following year. I want to be like my cousin, she scored a very good mark for her 'O' level and her parents rewarded her with a sony VAIO and a new phone.=)

On your mark! get set! Go!!!!!

Wow! Look at the swimmers! They are all getting ready for their competition.:)

Swimming carnival

On the 7-3-08, our school organised a swimming carnival. I got third in the competition and my timing was 46 seconds. It is better than my usual training timing.

Social Studies Learning Journey

On the 20/2/08, class 5.4 went to the Old Ford Factory for a learning journey. This two places talk about how people lived during World War 2 (WWII), how the Malay Regiment and the British fought to protect Singapore and Malaya. But the British lost to the Japanese. Thousands died, one of our war hero Lt. Adnan bin Saidi died during the war just to protect his fellow country men, family, Singapore and Malaya. Lt. Adnadn married to a school teacher and had three children, 1942,Lt. Adnad and his family lived in Psir Panjang. When the Japanese came, he sent his family back to his hometown in due to his wife as she is carrying their third child while he stayed in Singapore to fight. But sadly, the Japanese capture him and bayoneted him and killed him. His wife soon gave birth to a baby girl but sadly the baby died. A few days later, Lt.Adnan's wife was told that her husband was killed. Soon later, she too passed on. Since then I learnt that we must ourselves defend Singapore, not others to help us as Lt. Adnan sacrifice his life to help defending Singapore and Malaya.
