This years' Olympics is held at Beijing. The opening ceremony was on the 8th August 2008 and at 8 p.m. It is an important sporting event as people from different countries get a chance to compete with each other .
Well, in this Olympics, Singapore had won a silver medal. By the looks on the faces of Li Jiawei, Wang Yuege and Feng Tianwei, we know that they had tried their best to get the gold medal but did not.
Another amazing thing is that Michael Phelps who has won EIGHT GOLD MEDALS! WOW! He's truly our Olympic champion.
I've ever seen an Olympic event on TV. The sport was table tennis. It was very exciting.
I think Michael Phelps impressed me the most. He had put in a lot of effort to win eight gold medals. We are very proud of him.
In my dreams, I've always been thinking of participating in the Olympics. I would like to take part in table tennis. I think it is a fun sport.
I will always remember Michael Phelps advice, ”Nothing is impossible. With so many people saying it couldn't be done, all it takes is just imagination.”

National Day Celebration
Happy Birthday Singapore!! My favourite day that I have been waiting for. It was the day when Singapore became independent 43 years ago . We celebrated it to remember its independence. It was really a fun-filled day!
We celebrated National Day in school by raising the flag, singing the national anthem and saying the pledge. Anyway, we have always been doing that everyday.
I think our school National Day celebration was quite meaningful . For the P5 and P6 students, they went to Sembawang Park to jog.
For the P3 and P4 levels, we made a collage with red, white and black seeds.
For P1 and P2 levels, they had mini sport in school.
I think the school principal has a proper programs and arrangement for each levels. I had so much fun pasting the seeds to form a sign related to Singapore.
Please remember, celebrate the Singapore spirit!

Netiquette
Have you ever wonder what is Netiquette?Well, It means cybercourtesy. Being considerate is also another way to show cybercourtesy.Everything starts with you.
Remember! Always display good manners and mutual respect in cyberspace!
Netiquette is very important. In real life, if we do not have it, we would be running around, screeming and shouting among ourselves. It is also the same in cyberspace, saying all those vulgar words, hacking into people's account,and all sorts of bad things.
A lot of us like to go to the chat rooms to chat with our friends. Sometimes, you are even talking to people whom you don't even know!
I suggest you should quit the chat room. But it is ok if you write your post in your own chat room in your blog.

cyberbullying?
Well, cyber bullying is a bad thing you should't do. It may harm others and even you. we do not want to be a cyberbully nor do we want to be bullied.so, we have to stop cyberbullying.
A lot of us like to gossip about other people.we should't do that as it would make things worse.
Also, we will be knowned a "cyberbully".
How are people engaged to be a cyberbully? Actualy, they made a big, big mistake at the beggining. For example, if you recieve an Email from your friends which has vulgar words,like asking you to send that same message to three other people,I advice you to ignore it. If you don't, the emailer will have a bigger impressions about himself or herself,and also think he or she is very great.
The best idea is, we should put up a sign to inform pupils that cyberbullying is bad, like" If you wouldn't do it in person, why do it online?"

During the HOLIDAYS!!
I had an extremely fun and exciting holiday!I went to JB,The Pulai Deseru. I stayed there for 4 days three nights.I played the pool table with my brother even though I was under 16 years old. Then, I went to the swimming pool. As I had been there about14 or 15 times, I was used to everything there;the pool table, the swimming pool, the beach, thefood there and all the facillities over there.
when I was at the pool, I metmy kinergarden friend, Wen Min. She had two brothers too!we played the whole morning until it was time to go.
In the afternoon, me, my father and brother played tennis at the tennis court there.we also had a great time too!
On tuesday,which is the second last day, we met again and went down the slide altogether! It was quite a bit scary sliding down.
On the last day, we packed up and went to check out. I wished that my parents could bring me there again!

My Reflection on Earthquakes
Causes of Earthquake
An earthquake is a shaking or trembling of the crust of the earth.
It is caused by underground volcanic action. It can also caused by the
breaking and shifting of rock beneath the surface.
What to do when there is an earthquake
In order to protect yourself during an earthquake, you must remember the following rules : “ Drop, Cover, and Hold On!”.
These rules help during quakes that cause furniture to move about rooms, and even in buildings that might ultimately collapse.
Dropping means go down on your hands and knees.
Covering means covering your head (and your body by being under a strong table if possible).
Holding means holding onto furniture (even if it is moving).
In cases where an earthquake is less violent, you might be able to move to a safer place (e.g. away from breaking windows, etc) as you drop to the floor, cover your head, and hold on to a solid object.
If you are trapped in a collapsed building :--
Do the following :-
- protect your airway against dust and debris.
This can be done by breathing through clothing or material (preferably a dust mask if one
has been stored near their desk, bed, or other accessible location).
- check yourself for injuries. If there is bleeding, control the bleeding.
- find a source of light if possible.
- make your location known to rescuers by tapping on a solid object with a rock or other
instrument.
- save your breath and energy. Delay yelling for help until you hear rescuers very nearby.
Can earthquakes be detected
Earthquakes can be detected but not predicted.
It is difficult for scientists to predict when large earthquakes will occur with any kind of reliability or precision needed to warn communities of impending disasters.
However, animals can predict earthquake. Some signs to watch out for:-
- catfishes moving violently
- chickens stop laying eggs
- bees leaving their hive in a panic
- Pet owners claimed to have witnessed their cats and dogs acting strangely before the ground
shook, barking or whining for no apparent reason.
Places where earthquakes occurred
Earthquakes have struck cities and countries such as Los Angeles, Alaska, California, Java, Mexico, Sumatra, Japan, Italy, Greece and the recently, China.
Why earthquakes occurred in those countries
Those countries experienced earthquakes because of their geological position which lie on the earthquake belt.
Earthquake and Singapore
Singapore will not experience any earthquake because its geological position does not lie on the earthquake belt.However, when Sumatra experience one, Singapore would experience a mild vibration.
