My Poem

Mrs Nair asked me to post my poem up on this blog. So here it is.Cheers!:D

Life has ups and downs.
Just like a roller coaster ride.
You will hear "Arh!"
"Arh!' When something bad happens.
It also have ups.
When it is something good people say "Cool..."
Or even "Arg..."
Life always have good and bad things.
Some people will be as cool as a cucumber when something happens
But some people will be so agitated.
It just sounds like a roller coaster ride!
People enjoy it but some people don't.
Even though you do not like it,
You still have to go through it.
So deal it happily!
This is life!

My english poem

Ok, Mrs Nair asked me to post up me poem, so here it is:

The story of the Dragon Master(MapleStory)

Evan was just a young farmer's girl
Until she had a dream that changed her world
She was walking in a forest dark and old
And met a dragon with skin black as stone
'Come to me Evan, let our souls be joined,' his voice was deep and low
'Who are you,' said Evan, ' What is this, I want to know!'
'I am an Onyx Dragon,' said he, 'and to get strong I need someone of a different kind.'
'But why me,' said Evan, 'people are easy to find.'
'Good people aren't,' he said, before everything went up in smoke
Sitting up in her bed, Evan woke
'It's only a dream,' she sighs
As she went outside and saw the sky
While feeding the pigs, one piglet broke loose
Evan chased after it, catching it without a noose
But as she ran she fell into a hole
And ended up in a forest that didn't appear unknown
Walking as if she knew the way
'The Pact is formed, we are One now...' she heard someone familiar say
Then Evan found the most wondrous thing
It was an egg, she didn't blink
She picked it up, and ran like the wind
But not before she felt the thing inside toss and spin
She brought it home, put it on her bed
Crack! It hatched, and the tiny thing said,
'Master Evan! It really is you...'
'I was the dragon, but now I'm a baby still.'
Picking it up, Evan said, 'Then I will look after you,'
'And I will become strong with you!'
So they trained hard, and the dragon grew
Dragon Master Evan, the strongest people knew...

Ethan's Poem

Mrs Nair asked me to post my poem up on this blog. Enjoy!

Nature

The crashing of the waves,

The rushing of the breeze,

Lush greenery in every gaze,

The rustling of the leaves,

Atop the highest mountain,

One hears a silent call,

Like birds flying all around,

In a hallowed hall,

Listen, but do not fear,

For it is by your side,

Weep no less than a tear,

And step into the light,

Filled with stench and aroma,

Nothing is very clear,

Visions from afar,

Nothing is better than nature.

An English Poem

Hello everyone! Mrs Nair asked me to post this poem online. (It's the poem we did during the June Holidays.)

Chirp! Chirp!
Cute birds chirped continuously.
Sway! Sway!
Shrubs swayed swiftly.
Bark! Bark!
Dogs barked loudly.
But Mother Earth is dying,
we need to help her. 
The wind howled like a wolf
Lightnings flashed
Thunders roared.
The rain poured as loud as a jet plane.
Mother Earth cried and cried.
Nobody was going to help her.
She stared at her thermometer placed in her mouth
and cried.

homELearning Activity (S1-08: 07 Ng Kok Yin)

Part 1:

Who is/are the focus/focuses in the image? How do you know that?
The focuses in the image is the rickshaw puller, as he is in the forefront of the picture, such that the rest of the picture seems like the background.

Describe the characters/setting.
People with an average income will be able to afford a car, or a motorcycle at least. It is important to own a vehicle as being in a big city, where you have to travel often and usually far. However, there are some people who cannot afford to own a vehicle, and hence rely on public transport. The people who are able to afford ,will sit taxi but some rely on the few rickshaw pullers left in such modern days. 

What kind of story do you think lies behind the image? Explain.
I think that the story that lies behind this image is that in some countries, the income gap is huge. The taxi driver is at least able to buy a car to drive customer to their destination. But for the rickshaw puller, they have to use their strength to pull their customer whether if they are fat or thin whether in rain or shine.

What do you think is/are the message/s the photographer is seeking to convey through the image?
I think that he is trying to get the public to know and understand that when people are poor, they get poorer as they are unable to let their children attend school to pursued education.

What do you like/dislike about the image? What would you have done differently if you were the photographer?
I would have taken the rickshaw puller moving next to a taxi with a passenger in it.
