Exhilaration washed over me the moment I stepped into Shangri-La Hotel. We had booked a weekend staycation here because we found many positive reviews about this sumptuous accommodation. Such commendation piqued our curiosity and made us decide to take the plunge. Our eyes brimming with anticipation, we looked forward to deepening our connections.
Sitting for the Primary School Leaving Examination is a challenging experience. Your persistence is often called into question as you have to juggle schoolwork with your Co-Curricular Activity commitment and tuition classes. You may doubt your competence and feel disheartened when you score poor results. In instances like this, call to mind the Growth Mindset. Encourage yourself that you have the ability to make a difference in your life. Embrace resilience into your life.
My stomach twisted in nerves upon hearing that I had to put on a performance for the residents at All Saints' Home. Fortunately, with timely assistance from my form teachers, I could work smoothly with my classmates to hone our dance steps. Frankly, it was not easy dancing to a high-tempo song, but we prioritised body maintenance -- eating, sleeping and exercising well. We kept to this rigorous routine for weeks, exhibiting great endurance. Thankfully, our perseverance paid off, and the residents were captivated by our dance!
Conceiving a study plan is not enough. One must be disciplined and carry out the plan consistently every day. He must not succumb to temptation but instead focus on achieving his goals. However, when he believes in himself and puts his best foot forward, he will be able to accomplish his goals and enjoy a height of success that is previously denied to him.
Not everyone is fascinated by dinosaurs. Nevertheless, you will be awed by the many magnificent dinosaurs located along the Changi Airport Jurassic Mile. Give your muscles a good workout, scrutinise the sculptures, and enjoy the scenery. After that, treat yourself to a scrumptious meal, sharpening your consciousness.
My eyes widened in amazement as I took in the miniature igloo inside the restaurant. It was chock-full of bite-sized breads -- perfect for children to take them. I also loved the many picture books related to bread that adorned the walls. Children (and adults) could read them for leisure. There were even recipe books catered to baking amateurs! It was such a lovely gesture by the restaurant staff.
My wife gave me a quizzical look (curious). A broad grin plastered across my face (happy), I nudged her to open her Christmas present. A surge of pride welled up in my chest (proud) because I was sure she would like the earrings I had bought for her.
My face turned beetroot red with shame (regretful). I felt as if a dagger had been plunged into my heart (sad). I had not meant to break my brother's cherished figurine. I avoided from making eye contact with him, but I sensed that his eyes were popping out of their sockets (shocked).
My heart sank like an anchor (sad). Many questions buzzed in my mind, and I could feel my head spinning out of control (confused). Now that I had not qualified for Direct School Admission, I was at a loss about what to do (confused).
