this is your life

This is your life: Charlene Cheong
Born in a city called Singapore. Your family tree consists of your mother, your father and your two younger sister. Your teenage life was plain and simple, just like others. You went to school and had many friends. When you were younger you had dreams like becoming a famous dancer or singer. Last year, you had a prolonged fever and therefore went to KK hospital. You are closer to the next class 2/7 than your class 2/8, because you think that the people in 2/8 don't really like you. After a few months with them, you felt happier. You always hope that the 2/8 people would accept you. This is your past but do not let the past to follow you your whole life.

The occupation was a major turning for everyone. Singapore was renamed to Syonan-to which means "Island of the Light of the South. The fighting in Singapore lasted from 8 December 1941 to 15 February 1942. Singapore's fall to the Japanese was the worst disaster in the British and my history.

TREATMENT OF PEOPLE

Hello,
Today I am blogging about treatment of people. I have read a few books about how the government treat their citizens. In the past, the government would have a day of food distribution. The poor people would gather there even before the government get prepared to stand at his house.

Some of the rich families would also give out food. they would stand outside their house door, cover their noses, put their hand into a bag of rice and would throw the rice grains on to the floor. The poor people would crawl on the floor and pick up every grain of rice. 

I think that the rich people should not do such a thing. They do not know that all human beings have feelings.

WHO I ADMIRE

I admire my primary 6 teacher,Mrs AA David,she always explains anything we don't know during lessons and after school.She gives us extra classes after school when she thinks that we cannot cope with our studies. She is our form teacher and she is also our science teacher. She praises and gives us gifts when we improve in our studies.

Mrs David scolds us when we are in the wrong. She usually play some games during lessons to motivate us.She is not shy and is always very cheerful and lively. She also participate in concerts.
