I think that creativity is inborn. You cannot learn how to be creative as it is a skill that you have in you and not something you can learn. If you don't have it means you don't have it. But then again, there are some exceptions. Sometimes creativity can be learned like a talent. Maybe at first you are not creative, but with perseverance and determination, you can become creative. Like many people say, it can be motivated by others. So from my perspective, either way is possible and never give up hope if you are not creative. It can be nurtured along the way as you grow up.

To me courtesy means to say thank you, excuse me, please and sorry. There are many cases when people don't. For example when you knock into someone, instead of saying sorry, you blame the person and tell them to watch their way rudely. When there is someone blocking your way, instead of saying excuse me, you push and shove the person away. All this can lead to commotion and isn't it much easier to be courteous? Choping tables with tissue paper is okay I guess, but sometimes it does not really work . For someone like me, if I see a pack of tissue paper on the table, I will simply just ignore it and sit on the table. The pack of tissue paper could be anyones. It could be the people who were sitting there before. I wonder why people do not seat on the seats choped with tissue paper, is there a rule that people obey? If there is, why can't people just obey the law? If you are late, can't you just explain the reason why you were late, before coming you go to your seat. Even if you were admonished by the teacher, it will still be better than when you sneak into class and the teacher finds out. So you must be thinking, if I sneak into class, there is a 1 in 99 chance that the teacher would not notice. But it is a very slight chance, what more the teachers are not that blur to not notice a student that had popped out from nowhere. I think that we should be more courteous so that we can live in a better society.

The march holidays were way too short! I was just watching TV and playing with my hamster and 5 days is over. On Monday, I totally wasted my time going to the Chinese camp. It was SO boring! What more it lasted from 8 in the morning to 6.30 at night. What a total waste of time! The rest of the days I was just rushing through my piles homework, but on Sunday I went to the Zoo because I was stressed out. When I first reached the Zoo, I felt kind of retarded because the people going there were either adults or small toddlers. But when I saw that my sister was perfectly fine, I did not feel that retarded anymore. The zoo trip was okay, but super tiring. The tram ride was very expensive, so my mum thought of a "brilliant" idea, and made us walk for the WHOLE trip. You must be thinking that I am crazy. I bought a bottle filled with fresh carrots and Veggies which cost $2, just to feed the smelly and fat goats. I did not know what was on my mind! Sigh* I wish the holidays were much longer!

No no no! Of course you cannot love an object more than your family. It is very selfish to do so. Your family is the one that you can lean on when you are in need. Your family is the one that you can trust. You can easily buy an object, even if it is a 10- carat diamond ring. But you can never buy your family. If you have ever gave up your family because of an object, you should really think about it. Your family is your flesh and blood, someone that is loving and caring. An object cannot share and care for you, neither can it love you. You can only admire an object, but you can love your family. So that is why I think that you cannot love an object more than your family.

My wishes and dreams:)

I wish that one day..........

• we would be able to take the lift in school anytime we liked, and don't need to climb 14 flights of stairs everyday!


• I could visit the seven wonders of the world and experience snow.


• Parents were brainwashed and begin acting over friendly and asked us not to do our homework, instead ordered us to go and play with our friends, or they will reprimand us!


• school will close down due to the recession and there will be no homework, assessment books and unreasonable teachers, and we will be able to watch TV and play computer games the WHOLE day.

Sigh* why do we always have to come back to reality!:(

P5 camp rocks!!

P5 camp was awesome! Everything was nice except for the horrible food, toilets and beds.The food was so horrible that I threw away practicly the whole thing. The only thing that was nice was the chicken wings, but we were only allowed to have one! The drinks were diluted and tasted like water. The beds were very cramed and hard. Luckily I brought a pillow and could sleep well at night. The toilets were the worst. It was so smelly, and the locks couldn't work! We had very little time to bathe, and once we went in, the girls will start banging on the doors, asking us to hurry up when we are already trying our best! The crc, abseiling, and the rock climbing were the best! They were so fun! The campfire rocked! There was so much noise, and most of the performaces were wonderful. But the last day of camp was horrible! We had to clean the boys a-huts, and they stinked! There were so much litter and rubbish on the beds and floors! The camp was great!:)

Stress is driving us to our graves!!!

Yes, I agree that kids these day are experiencing more stress. I have to cope with schoolwork as well as tuition work, not to mention multiple activities outside. I think the education system should focus less on distinctions so that students won't feel so pressured.

The Battle Box

The battle box was quite interesting and meaningful. I have learnt what the battle box was used for and have seen many spooky rooms and dungeons. It was a good experience for me, and I enjoyed it very much.

My hobbies:)

My favourite hobbies are ice skating, playing tennis, playing and talking with friends, watching tv and lazing around:)
