Pupils' Response 20 - Graciousness

Graciousness is a way you can help each other without showing your anger to anybody. There were times when me or my sister just couldn't resist to show anger. This doesn't show graciousness between the person who showed anger. Some of my friends tried to say more 'Magic Words' to get ice-cream sticks. These acts can show graciousness between one another. Many of us are not gracious at all. Some of us may even say unkind words. I have heard of many rude people who are not thoughtful at all and say unkind words. There was a boy who I saw on 31 August 2009 who just barged and hit Eddy while we were going back from the hall after celebrating Teacher's Day. He even did not say ''Excuse Me" which was very rude. I hope that I won't be seeing more of these rude behaviors. Being gracious is a good way to act to everybody. If everybody can do a part to be gracious, there won't be riots or arguments.

The Green Club Journey To Pasir Ris Park

Yesterday, on Friday, my CCA, Green Club brought all the Green Club members to Pasir Ris Park. We assembled in front of the hall staircase at 1:20p.m. The bus arrived at 1:23p.m. We boarded the bus excitedly and the teacher began doing a headcount. There were many Green Club members. My friend, Tan Wei Hong was a Green Leader and the only Green Leader that couldn't go to the excursion. When we arrived there, our teacher, Randy Koo, gave out the worksheets and reminded us to stay together in a group of at least 3 people. We had to do a mangrove worksheet??? I actually didn't know that there was a mangrove in Pasir Ris Park. Our entry fee was ... FREE!!! I had only been to only one mangrove which was Sungei Buloh only for my IT class learning journey. We saw a lot of sign boards. At the entrance, there was a map. Luckily, our worksheet also had a map. I found out a lot when I was in the mangrove. I found out that the St. Andrew cross spider could fold its legs into an 'X'. The Blue Throated Bee Eater can remove the poisonous sting of the bee before eating it, And the Heavy Jumper had 8 legs! We saw a Monitor Lizard ( Komodo Dragon? Maybe). Oops, I forgot to mention my group members, they were Eddy, Zhong Heng, Ashley and me. But it kept changing. Calvin joined some changed some moved, Lim Ji Kang joined. During that time, me, Calvin and Ji Kang heard a roar. Calvin thought that it was an aeroplane, but then said 2 aeroplanes. They said that they have never ever seen two aeroplanes together. Me too, but then I exclaimed, " It is the roar of thunder!" we stayed at the shelter for quite a while. But then, we hurried out. Some of them or should I say all of them went to buy some drinks at a nearby shop. Then some of them wanted to rent bicycles at the nearby shop. Me, Darroy, A ruby guy, Liang Jie and Elliot played together some games like 'Pablo'. Then, at 4:30 p.m. we gathered outside at the bicycle shop. Then, we played for a while until, 4:45 p.m. The bus then arrived. We went back to school, then we could go home.

Cyberwellness 3 - Danger Of Sharing Personal Information

In the cyber networks of online games, we should not share any personal information like our age, birthday of where do we live. Me and my family members are already aware of the consequences sharing personal information will lead to. I have read stories of the dangers of sharing personal information. Some people will try to ask you to meet each other in reality then the person will either try to kidnap you. Some of them would use somebody else's account of create an account in an online game to try to fool some kids who are not aware of dangers of sharing personal information. One of my friends were not aware and shared personal information. But luckily when the mysterious person asked to meet him personal in reality, he couldn't because the mysterious person was living in another country and could not travel to Singapore.

Cyberwellness 2-Handling Inappropriate Content

Handling inappropriate content is not right as some of them contain wrong information. My sister had handled inappropriate content before. I had to force her to close the website and I had to tell my parents about it. My sister felt to ashamed to even utter a word. She was reprimanded profusely for handling inappropriate content without informing us of it. Nowadays, my sister doesn't handle inappropriate content without asking. My mother had the same problem once. But luckily, I informed her that it was inappropriate. It told us to guess a somebody's birthday to win $109, 875, 346, 201. There have been many cases of handling inappropriate content. Now, my family members are aware of the dangers of handling inappropriate content.
