Thank you for sharing...

At this stage, I just want to thank everyone for sharing with me your thoughts and feelings in your weekly journals. Although some of you have still been 'reporting' about what you did during the day, I would just want to clarify again that this journal writing exercise is a channel for you to do some reflection or self-thinking about the things you have done, events that you have encountered and how you feel about them. In addition, if you have any problems that are troubling you, you can pen it down as well too.

It really has been a pleasure reading your journals and all the sharings of your ups and downs. From these sharing as well from my replies, I'm sure we get to know more about each other.

About your current seating arrangement, I am delighted to find out that you guys missed your old group mates and that you have shown that you have forged good friendship with your classmates. As for your new groupings, it is still too early to say that you do not like them. After all, it has only been two weeks and you guys still have at least 8 more weeks to go. Thus do get to know your new group mates now and who knows, you might love them even more!

To those of you who are running out of ideas to write in your journals, you may want to share about what you have learnt in school for that day.

Do keep these sharings coming in. I'll be looking forward to read them every Friday. :)

Just for Laughs...

Something for you guys to smile and laugh at to de-stress a little. I saw my cats at this position and captured them on the camera. Really, it is a natural pose. They did it by themselves all of a sudden. :p

I guess they were trying to tell me "Friends forever... meow!"

2008 thus far...

6 Excellence!

How's 2008 so far? Feeling breathless from the never-ending onslaught of homework and projects? Seeing stars over Mathematics? Getting speechless and 'idea-less' in your compositions and journal writings? Confused over the theories in Science? Finding the elusive time amidst your CCA, tuition, homework, religious classes, computers and TV?

Time is flying. If you have noticed, the countdown timer used to be over 230 days but now, it is 186 days now to the BIG day. Time sure is running out. Yes, this is a stressful year. No doubts about it.

All that I want to say is, the (current) going is tough but only the tough people (like you guys) get going and moving forward. Learn to manage your time; do the important things first. Work on your weak areas more and be conscientious in your daily work. Lastly, ask the teacher whenever in doubt!

Do be prepared that more and more practice exam papers for English, Math and Science are heading our way. Please treat them as your friends who are here to familiarise you with the PSLE standards as well as to help you discover your weak areas for you to work on.

I'll end this post by this sentence: Do not forget our class name - Excellence: DO YOUR VERY BEST!!!
