Picture Discussion
My perception to this picture is that people are attempting to one of the low elements which is known as “spider-web”. Participants are gathered around a campsite as the tent is shown on the background. They are having their outdoor activities beside the tent. The boy in the foreground might be feeling too anxious as he is passing through the “spider-web”. He might not pass the obticle if no one assist him. The outdoor activity emphasises and help the students to learnt the values of team-building. It helps to build up the bond between friends and teammates. This is the kind of game which is suitable for the participants to learn how to be co-operative. If there is any argument in between the games, the team should come out with solutions to settle the problem quickly.There is no I in the word TEAM.We should learn to help each other in the team.

A Time When I Felt Unloved
When i was young i was send to a nanny as my parents was busy working and did not had the time to take care of me. I thought that they did not loved me and neglected me,when they leave me there i was very relunctant to let go. I felt lonely and sad,but i met new friends and had fun,and every night they will bring me out to play and eat dinner then send me back to the nanny house.As i grow up and matured now i think of it,actually they still cared about me, just that during that period of time i was young and ignorant.Their love for me stand strong,it will be and forever be that way.
Storm Recount
Ligthing is loud and scary,it never fails to scare me when i am young. Its thuderous voice shock me and it is the usual suspect that will make me run to my parents. My parens will calm me down and hug me. I always thought that the word lighting and ghost are related. When it rains at night i will hide under my blanket but now i have grown up and it is totally a different matter when it rain. In fact now i feel very relax whenever it rains,it just feel so cooling and makes me wants to sleep.

Dear Mr Vincent,
Proposal to Upgrade Pulau Ubin
I,President of Green Plan 2012 Club, hereby sending in a proposal to upgrade Pulau Ubin.My school and I had recently been on a trip to Pulau Ubin and the condition of the facilities there were dirty and did not have the advance technology unlike singapore.So i decided to do a survey and ask a few people that i met along the road about Pulau Ubin facilities.
I met a man named abu lasakas lanea, he is a 60 years old man who is suffering from kidney cancer,he complained about the lack of medical facilities on this island.It is very inconvient for him to go all the way to the main island to recieve treatment.He wants a stable medical supplies and more clinics around the island.
Tomas choon a 16 year old school boy has to wake up as early as 4.30am and take a boat to the mainland to reach his school. It is very troublesome for him as he will not have enough sleep.He hopes that the goverment will build a few schools in his area.
Mary haslamb demands a stable water supply as lots of campers and tourist go there. She plans to open a coffe shop to serve thirsty customers.She wants proper roads to be build so that places can be more accessible and retain the natural beauty of Pulau Ubin too.
The upgrades will help change the lifes of the residents in Pulau Ubin,I hope you would consider the request of the residents. I hope to hear a favorable reply from you as soon as possible. Thank you.

Natural Disaster
A moderate earthquake rocked southwest China on 10 july 2009, injuring at least 336 people and collapsing 10,000 homes, state media reported.
The magnitude-6.0 temblor, centered in Yunnan province's Yao'an county, damaged another 30,000 homes, the Xinhua News Agency said.
Thirty people suffered severe injuries, while the other 305 were slightly injured.
The quake was followed by eight aftershocks and the provincial civil affairs department was sending 4,500 tents, 3,000 quilts and other relief materials to Yao'an, while hundreds of police were dispatched to the disaster zone.
Yunnan is a quake-prone, mountainous region that lies on China's southern border with Thailand and Burma. It also borders Sichuan province, where a magnitude-7.9 quake last year left almost 90,000 people dead or missing.
In 1988, a 7.1-magnitude quake in Yunnan near Burma killed more than 930 people. More than 15,000 people died after a magnitude-7.7 earthquake in the province in 1970, though authorities at the time covered up information on casualties and damage amid the chaos of the Cultural Revolution.
