2 weeks ago i suddenly recieved news that my aunt who visited me during June hols from America has discovered that she has gotten breast cancer...I was totally stunt. From my impression of her, she has a healthy lifestyle and she is very concious of her diet, and her health conditions. She and her husband decided to live in America in order to have quality life. They have two kids there, they have a big house there and their income is also good. But their quality life turn out to be like that. It really makes me ponder what is quality life? Can the so called luxurious quality life really bring us happiness and health? What is the best way of life? hmm i think its really hard to find out an answer for these questions. I really hope my aunty will recover from this, luckily her breast cancer still belong to the early stages. I will keep praying for her. 我阿姨得癌症这件事情真的让我感觉到生命的脆弱，和渺小。我奉劝大家开始珍惜身边的人吧。每一个人的命运都深不可测，不要等到失去他们才忏悔。
Last week i had a one to one session with my history teacher Ms Serene Teo for one hour. Talking to her is really very enjoyable. There is no pressure, no intensity, and we can really talk our hearts out. Before that i had missed a few history lessons due to some reasons which i have forgotten. However within half an hour with Ms Teo, all my concepts were clear, she taught me some really important skills on how to tackle study all sources questions. I am really grateful to her. For the remaining time i shared with her about how i am coping with my studies and life now. I also discussed with her about my nxt year subject combination. Maths, History, China studies in Chinese and Econs/ Knowledge and Inquiry. I asked Ms Teo about KI and i managed to find out that our school actually offers KI just that no one apply or rather a lot of our students don even know of this subject in our school. At first i was pretty sure i wanted Econs. However after conversing with Ms Teo about what is taught in KI, it got me very excited. KI is a much higher level of GP and the things we get to learn and analyze in this subject is lots of general knowledge. We will get to learn about religion, politics, history, social science. So its lots of current affairs and it covers a lot of areas. The method of testing is very similar to other humanities subject. Essay and Analysis. For econs though there are some humanities stuff in it but i have to be very strong in maths and i also need to be very passionate in in which i doubt so for both requirements. Haix see how lo currently if let me choose i will want to take KI but Ms Teo say need at least around 10 students then can open this course. So year 4s who are interested in KI please approach me ah :D
Last Sat after bicult talk and yishun junior college, i went to orchid country club gym and sat down at a corner with table and chairs to do homework and enjoy sometime on my own. I discover the environment there really suits me. Very little people, not noisy, no distractions. In two hours i completed an history assignment and a 报章读后感。Haha after that i gymed for 45 minutes as well. It was really a very satisfying afternoon for me :D I have decided to do that more often, if possible every week. Maybe on sundays. Now i every sunday go orchid country club with my cousin to study and gym he is preparing for his o levels as well. I also need to start to mug and prepare myself for the horrifying end of year exams......
