When people around you ignore you,you might think that the person does not love you nor cares about you.Sometimes I felt that I was really being left out alone.My parents were always busy with their work,they came back home late at night and I was not able to see them during day time.I was thinking of trying things that will catch their attention like injuring myself so that they will care more about me so I took a small knife to slash across my hand and soon my blood started to ooze out.
My grandfather came into the kitchen and saw me bleeding.He carry me into the bathroom and wash my wound and ask me why am I doing this to my hand.I replied softly and said that my parents does not care about me anymore so I do this is to try to seek their attention so that they will spend time to look after me.My grandfather said that I was very silly.He said,"your mother and father still cares about you even though they were busy with their works,you are their daughter and they love you more than anything else.I know that cause I have childrens too so now do not try anything stupid."
It was really stupid of me to believe that my parents does not love me.It is just that I did not realise how they care about me.Now,I believe that my parents will still care and love me no matter what happened.

Caught in a Storm
When I was a kid,I always thought that lightning and thunder means the end to the world as the sound of it was very horrifying.I remember when I was in my grandmother's house,there was a heavy storm.Heavy rain pouring down and I was sleeping on the sofa.Suddenly,there was a very loud thunder,it was so loud that it could wake the dead.
I jumped out of my bed crying and screaming.My mother and my uncle came into the living room to see what is wrong.When my mother saw me crying hardly and she trys to calm me down but it was futile.My uncle was standing beside my thinking about what can he do to help me stop crying.All of the sudden,he ran to his room and took out his CD player.He put in the ear piece and put it in my ear.He increase the volume and I cannot hear any thunder or lighting except the music that the CD is playing and I stopped crying.After that,when there is thunder or lighting,I will listen to the CD player which calm me down.
As I grow up,I was not afraid of thunder and lighting anymore.Thinking back when I was a small kid who was afraid of thunder and lighting really sounds quite stupid to me now.

Dear Mr Lim
Proposal to upgrade Pulau Ubin
I am Sheryl,President of the Green Plan 2012 Club,would like to develop Pulau Ubin to help serve the residents better and bring more tourist to the island.I have interviewed several residents their views on what we need to improve Pulau Ubin.Some wishes to have a new clinic and a school for the locals to study better and changing transport to the mainland instead of taking a bumboat as it was very inconvenient.
In order to make places around Pulau Ubin accessible,we would need to improve on the bus services,roads and infrastructure.We wish to add in cycling tracks and nature trails.Some consider transforming Ubin into a 21st century New Town so that they can enjoy best of the both worlds by having shopping facilities and a relaxing way of life by having nature at their doorsteps.A part time hawker assistant,Mrs Tan Li Lin , wish to have a reliable water supply as it was very important.She hope to start a coffee stall that can attract many campers and day trippers.We also wish to preserve Chek Jawa,as the pride of Pulau Ubin,as a nature reserve.
We do hope that you can accept this proposal to develop Pulau Ubin to a better place for the resisdents.
Yours faithfully

My views about terrorism
After reading those two articles,i realise Mas Selamat was such a clever person.He could even escaped to malaysia without alerting the Singapore police forces.I also wondered how can he walked from whitely detension center to woodlands and no one saw him.It is true that when he escaped from the dentension center, many Singaporean were worried things like were was he?have he escaped from Singapore?I wondered why he did not become a detective as he was such a clever person or a athletic as he have such a high stamina.People cannot sleep in peace as they was so worried about these things.After the police caught him,singaporean could finally sleep peacefully.
