An interesing thing that happened to me today- third CA assignment

Today has been a great day for me. Everything looked perfect since i entered the class. I had high hopes of doing good for my tests. It was not to be dashed. For my maths, I got full marks. Yeah! Told my father about it. And boy, was he proud. I'll try to do my best in everything I do. Anyway, coming back to the point, during Design and Technology class, Mr Quek, the subject teacher, taught us a new topic. I tried to concentrate and listen attentively but the two idiots opposite me kept talking and talking and talking. Their conversation never seemed to end. Just in case you were wondering why I got so frustrated ,the main reason is because not only were they not listening to the teacher, they were talking about racist jokes! Thus, when the teacher asked us to show him what we had done, they would panic and start asking us what had just happened, giving thoughtless excuses like "He was the one distracting me, that's why I could not pay attention." Or "Sir, you didn't even say we had to copy down." After hearing that, I felt like punching their faces. They were not even listening! I found them extremely irritating and annoying. I felt that they have totally no respect for the teachers or for the students. Reflecting, I wonder what would happen if all the students carried the same attitude. Honestly, I try hard not to think about it. I would not reveal who the two idiots were to protect their identity and image of a true, blue Victorian.

After the lesson, it was PE theory. It was quickly falling asleep as I blanked out my mind while Ms Sheika rambled on. All of a sudden, the fire alarm broke out. All hell went loose.(just joking) We were all laughing and joking about the fire drill. It seemed of little importance to us Singaporeans. We proceeded in an orderly fashion to the school field. At that time, the sun was burning and I was literally "burnt". We were left there for twenty whole minutes. The principal met us shortly, and without saying a word, strolled off. One boy exclaimed " What kind of principal is this? One for all, all for one! This is so stinking hot and you leave us here to suffer? What kind of attitude is this?" After digesting the information, I realized he pretty much spoke my mind. Well, we were released soon after and like all typical boys, we rushed back to our classes eager for the end of school.


Life is good.

An interesting event that happened in school- second CA assignment

Today, which is Wednesday, has been a fun and satisfying day for me. In the morning, we had literature. We were supposed to study a poem and dramatise it. It might seem simple, but the result was horrendous. The first group presented. They were somewhat interesting and entertaining. I thought, "Hmm, not bad. Things cannot get worse than this.) I was wrong. By the time the third group presented, everyone seemed lethargic and unenthusiastic. (I can't say I'm too excited about it) Group after group did the same old thing and it looked like they were copying each other. My group did no better. 1 hour of my time wasted.

After that, it was PE lessons. We played soccer. At first, I didn't have the heart to play. But the soccer bug, which was unavoidable, soon got to me and i was kicking like never before. After the game, I suddenly had a different perspective of the way I see people play soccer. Normally, on a weekly basis, I watch the S.league. As fake as it may sound, I actually follow quite closely to Singapore football. On television, I was pretty disappointed with their playing as the players were seldom able to find open space and missed a number of shots in front of goal. I was like " ARE YOU STUPID OR WHAT!? HOW CAN YOU EVEN CALL YOURSELF A SOCCER PLAYER!?" But, now I realise why. Once, when I had the ball, two of my opponents came rushing at me. I foolishly tried to dribble past them but try as I could, I just couldn't shrug them off. In the end, I lost possession. I felt so stupid after that. I could have just passed to my teammate but it just didn't cross my mind at that point. That was not the only time. It happened numerous times. I feel I have let my team down in the game. Worse still, I missed a shot in front of goal. I mean, how can you even miss 5 metres away from goal!?

But my team was extremely encouraging and told me it was okay. Through their constant encouragements, I pulled through and finally netted in a goal. Yay me. It was gruelling and tiring. Until now, my muscles are aching. Maybe I didn't do enough stretching. During recess, I ate coconut rice with BBQ chicken. Guess what? It cost $2. Simply put, I got scammed. During that point, even though I knew my mistake, I had no guts to tell the canteen vendor. How "loserish". I hated myself for that. I could have saved 50 cents! Lessons carried on as usual with new information feeding my hungry brain. I definitely want to continue schooling for as long as I can do it. Moral of the story: Have courage in everything you do and most importantly, learn from your mistakes.

1st CA assignment

I strongly feel that Monday is a waste of time. Basically because almost all the subjects in the day are meaningless and lengthy. Nevertheless, "ordinary" is not in my dictionary and now, let me share with you and interesting account of what happened today.


In the morning, Mr Low talked about the inflation in foods and that the canteen food prices had to be increased. After hearing this, I had two immediate feelings. Firstly, I was disgusted and felt that there was still no reason to increase the price since we youngsters have so little money! Secondly, I sort of pitied the canteen vendors for earning such a minimum amount of money even though the ingredients would cost them more. I didn't know how to react. Therefore, I just decided to just go with the Principal's decision. I guess I'm just a "go with the flow" kind of person.


During the afternoon, lessons were just as boring. How was I going to survive the day? Luckily, it was saved by the OPW- Online Project Work lesson. We went to the auditorium. Yeah! Compact with bright lights, comfortable chairs and air con, it was a dream place for lessons! Going home, I decided to study hard and do the best I can for my studies. I really want to go to a JC. Wish me all the best!


I realised that I have to keep up with the daily news to broaden my knowledge and understanding.

My thoughts about blogging

This will be my first time blogging. Apparently, it is an english assignment. Now, i have to find a suitable blogskin. Unfortunately, I am still a beginner. Looks like I have a lot to learn. Hope that I would be professional in months and weeks to come.
