The Day I Love - R

The Day I Love – R

It was a cold night. My father came back from work. Suddenly, he took out a box. I saw the cover of the box. I asked my father if it was a PSP 2. He replied, “Yes.” I was feeling excited.

My mother told me once when the meet-the-parent session comes; she will choose one of us.

Finally, after much waiting and anticipation, the meet-the-parent session came. She said she will choose one of us. When the results came out, my mother told me that I would get the PSP 2. I was feeling very happy with myself. I was feeling proud of myself and it was the same with my parents. We should always aim for excellence.

Now, I know that we should study hard.

Side note from Mdm Chan:

Personally, I would say that studying forms part of our lives. Yes, it is important to acquire useful knowledge through studying which would be useful in our later part of our lives. Yet, have you realized; apart from the formalized studying which is part of our curriculum in Singapore, there is also informal studying which can take place anywhere and everywhere. For example, we should be actively aware of our surroundings and ask questions which may pique our interest. Asking questions would be one useful component of seeking knowledge.

Some of the students learn by asking questions. If you are sitting in the classroom and you have never asked any questions that would also mean that you have never learned anything for your entire lesson, which is such a waste.

One precious lesson to all – understand how you learn at all times, and this means you can study smarter and less as hard as others. By clearing all your doubts earlier, you will also free up the time needed and do other more worthwhile things. :)
