Term 1 week 8
We had 3 lesson this week .
First was on Monday , then Friday we had 2 lessons .
Yeahh ! We finally started on the last poem , Romeo and Juliet .
Mr Chua played a play about Romeo and Juliet . We did not finish it .
We have to do a character traits on Tybalt for 21~30 .
We have to also do a mind map .
It has to be handed in next Monday .
On Friday , first lesson , we went through the homework that Mr Chua marked about Mercy .
This is from the Buddhist ,
It was from Ebony .
Let thousands of people receive the light of mercifulness , Let thousands of people bathe in the great grace of heaven . Don't compare with others , Don't compete with others .Establish a right of objective ,Don't hesitate and do not hinder yourself . Accept the sufferings and live with the sufferings , feel the tragedy of mankind , show mercy in return you should receive mercy .
This is from the Christian ,
It was from Pei Qi .
Gods loves someone . No matter how may times someone sins against him , he gives us chances . For his glory and mercy endures forever . A love that outdoes wrong and a love that covers multitudes of sin .
This from the Hindu ,
It was from Mr Chua .
Hindu believes in reincarnation and karma . Hindu are expectedto be merciful like Brahma , who is himself merciful .
This is from the Muslim ,
It was from Huzaifah .
Allah lets us repent our sin as long we pray to him and beg forgiveness through our daily prayers .
Friday second lesson ,
We went to the movers and shakers gallery to do a project about Singapore's founding fathers .
There was 11 questions , 15 marks .
Mr Chua said that the project will be graded .
I paired up with Daryl .
So we did our project , which was the legal eagle ?
It was David Marshall .
After we did finish the project , we went back our class to get our bags and went home .
I do think that respecting others religion is very important .
So we could communicate better .
And maybe learn from each other .

Term 1 week 6
This week is like week 5 .
We only had lessons on Monday as we are going to the hall for CNY performance on friday .
So , on monday Mr Chua came in to the class and asked to gave ourself a applause as we did not peek when he is coming .
We are still on Merchants of Venice and i quite like the story .
On Monday , i finally know it is right to let Shylock kill Antonio .
On the first worksheet was regarding on if Shylock has the rights to kill Antonio .
I wrote No . Even though Antonio owes Shylock money , Shylock still can't kill Antonio as Antonio did not say that if he do not pay up , he will let Shylock kill him . He only promised a pound of flesh .
But then Mr Chua gave us another worksheet , i read the script and saw Antonio insulting Shylock about his job , before lending the money to Antonio in the past , Antonio scolded Shylock a misbeliever , cut-throat dog and even spit on Shylock's Jewish clothes all because Shylock used money to do business .
So i believed that Shylock actually hate Antonio very much and wanted to kill him a long time ago .

Term 1 week 5
This week we only had 1 lesson which is on Monday so for Friday's replacement will be about how we do literature in sec 1
Monday ...
First of all i hereby say sorry to you for making you so angry on Monday as we were walking around before you came ..
Ok lets talk about mine reflection for this week .
After Mr Chua came .. We went to the field near the science lab and we sat there until about 2.25p.m. i think ..
We talked about the Merchants of Venice again ..
Mr Chua told us about friendship which is our school theme this year !
Some of mine important friends are :
Daryl
Keefe
WeiXiang
Wei Sheng (S00)
Jalilah
Kellynn
Umar
And some people from other classes .
After that we went back to the classroom .. Mr Chua asked for our homework from the Lit Rep .
Most of us have to stay back as we did not put 100% effort for our Character traits .
So after school i did 1 for him and he took the paper and i went home ..
Ok now for sec 1 ..
Our Sec 1 Lit teacher was Mdm.Anisah she a kind-hearted person but our class keeps making her shout at us ..
I think we should say sorry ..
Most of us are even talking to our friends and not listening to her explaination ..
That is all for this week
