Term 3 Week 8

Monday:   Mr Chua came in along with Mr Narz. I was wondering why was he in our class since he did not teach Literature. My mind went wild and I thought that he is going to replace Mr Chua! Mr Chua then quickly distributed a worksheet on the Mighty Mandarin and explained to us the meaning of some words in the worksheet. He then reminded us to study for out test on Monday. He rushed out to somewhere after that. I thought that it was something more important to attend than our Literature lesson. I bid farewell to him. Thank god that Mr Narz only came in as our relieve teacher. Mr Narz told us to do our work quietly and to hand up our work by the end of the lesson. I did what I was told. I quietly completed the worksheet. I was expecting our class to be noisy and rowdy, but to my surprise, our class seemed to be very focused on completing the assignment on time. Mr Narz only had to remind us to keep quiet for about 2 times. When the bell rang, we handed up the worksheet and went home. I realised that our class can be focused at times, only when we want to. But we do not have enough discipline. I guess that our class have the potential to, only that we have problems  regarding the attitude that we give to studies. That's why we could not score well for our exams. Still, I support our class to keep improving and I'm really happy to be in this class.

Thursday:
  Mr Chua came in and rushed to proceed to prevent wasting time, as usual. He distributed back Are You Lonesome Tonight worksheet 2 to us. I was a little disappointed that I did not really score well for my past work that I had done. But, I stood strong in what I believed in. I think that the results didn't really matter. What matters most is the effort that we put in. Without effort, we can't score well. So, I told myself that I have to put in more effort in what I do in my everyday life.

Like this picture, although you have failed, there is still effort put in things that we do.
William James:
Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you.
Mr Chua then told us to submit our illustration. He started scolding us for being dishonest as many people were caught copying each other work. It was wasting alot of time, of course. Mr Chua then continued the lesson by going through the Mighty Mandarin poem. He called many students to stand up and read out loud, but failed to, as many were still soft spoken. He was still disappointed. He gave us a homework on the article and told us about essay writing. Mr Chua told us to get into our Bravo formation, but the bell rang. So he told us to complete the work by next Thursday. I think that we still have problems at the attitude in our studies. The students that cheated did not have integrity. That's one value that they lacked.
We had been taught how to be honest from young to now. I hope that they had realised their mistakes and improve on being a good person with values.
