The answers to Mdm. Phua's Blog about the post 'Olympics'.


1) According to legend, the ancient Olympic Games were founded by Heracles (the Roman Hercules), a son of Zeus. Yet the first Olympic Games for which we still have written records were held in 776 BCE (though it is generally believed that the Games had been going on for many years already).

2) Well, from my point of view, I think it's becuz it helps us to build our sportsmanship and friendship and at the same time, test our sports and how good we are in them.

3) Yes, becuz I want to see Singapore winning a medal or standing in place first, second, third, fourth or fifth.

4) The athlete Michael Phelps impresses me most becuz he said :“Nothing is impossible. With so many people saying it couldn't be done, all it takes is an imagination, and that's something I learned and something that helped me.” And he won EIGHT GOLD MEDALS!

5)If i can, i would like to participate in the athlete event but i strongly think that i might break my leg when i am doing that.

That's all for today. Bye!

National Day

On 8/8/2008 and 9/8/2008, I celebrated National Day! Yippee! I love National Day! OK, cut the crap. On 8/8/2008, I celebrated National Day at school. I only had 4 hrs of school that day. I went ahead, as normal days, sat down at the hall to read my book. However, this time, I heard National songs as I was reading and P1 and P2 were sitting with us too. One of the songs I heard was 'Home'. The student(Prefect, i think) read out aloud the paper that was given. And we (The pupils) were supposed to respond. When I went back to class, I did the Collage Making. It was very fun, but noisy as Zonghui and Darren quarrel about the glue becuz Darren said Zonghui used too much glue and she was wasting it. During recess (in class), I ate bread and drank water. Oh, looks like time to go to the show at the hall. The show was quite funny, but i couldn't see becuz everyone was kneeling down. On 9/8/2008, during the NDP show, I watch it at the BIG screen at the function room. I got a Goodie Bag!! Yippee! During times of the show, He will ask questions and you are supposed to answer them, one of the questions he asked was " What do the red portion, the white portion, the five stars and the crescent stand for?" The correct answers were

Crescent= Young nation on the rise
Five stars=Democracy, Peace, Progress, Justice and Equality
Red portion= Brotherhood
White portion= Purity and Virtually

Well thats all for now. Bye!
