The Hive, a subterranean(existing, situated or operating below the surface of the earth; underground) genetic research facility owned and operated by Umbrella, an immensely powerful corporation with interests in everything from human longevity to biowarfare(any attempt at mass destruction such as a bacteria or virus). With computerized defenses and heavily armed human backup, the Hive is impregnable(strong enough to withstand anything) and invulnerable(incapable of being wounded, hurt). Or so Umbrella believes.
But something has gone fatally wrong. The Hive has lost containment of its most lethal and horrific creation: a virus that kills and reanimates human life, reducing the entire facility staff of five hundred men and women to mindless creatures with a single driving force-hunger. And the key to stopping them is a woman who can't even remember her own name.
This book is basically about flesh-eating zombies, more crude words and more fighting. It is only intended for mature readers, which I don't think is true because I am below the age of eighteen, but overall this book is very addictive and has a series of it coming out. I highly recommend this book for all of you to read it.:)

My class and I went to VJC (Victoria Junior College) last friday. We boarded a very big bus which would take us there, but it broke down halfway through unexpectedly. It was swelteringly hot inside the bus and was also very noisy.
The bus managed to start it again and eventually brought us to our destination. The school was very big and there were many students. Miss Lee brought us to a room which was swarming with many students. I went to a station which was called 'Colours'. The people attending to the stall gave us a paper and we were supposed to say the colour of the word, not the word. It was very fun.
I went to many other stalls until it was time to go to another room. We then went to the Maths Room. There were many games to play, but I only managed to get a prize.
The trip had been a very fun and interesting one and I hope to go to these kind of excursions again.:-)

My class went to the MICA atrium to see art exhibits yesterday. It was quite fun there, getting to see other student's artwork. Miss Lee had given us some worksheets to do before that. All the answers could be found in the exhibitions.
After seeing all the work displayed in the exhibition, I believe that a picture says a thousand words. Most of the artwork was beautifully done and handled carefully. I thought that all the artists were artistic after seeing all that art.
My trip to the MICA atrium was a fun and fruitful one, so I hope to have it again next year!

Hi everyone! Today I am going to share a movie I like most. It is 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix'. I had just watched it on Sunday.
In "Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix", Harry returns for his fifth year of study at Hogwarts only to discover that much of the wizarding community has been led to believe that a teenager's recent encounter with the evil Lord Voldemort is a lie, putting Harry's integrity in question. Worse, the Minister of Magic Arts teacher, the duplicitous Professor Dolores Umbridge. But Professor Umbridge's "ministry-approved" course of defensive magic leaves the young wizards woefully unprepared to defend themselves against the Dark forces threatening them, so at the prompting of his friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley, he is convinced to take things into his own hands. Meeting secretly with a small group of students who name themselves "Dumbledore's Army", Harry teaches them them how to defend themselves against the Dark Arts, preparing the courageous young wizards for the extraodinary battle that lies ahead.
The movie is very interesting and gripping, especially the part where Harry fights with Lord Voldemort together with Dumbledore. You should really see this gripping movie! :-)

My BICEP trip to the Science Centre
Last Thursday was our BICEP to the Science Centre, the same day as my table tennis competition. After school, all my friends came down to eat their lunch in the canteen. We gathered in the canteen at 1.30 before setting off. We sat a bus to go to the Science Centre.
When we reached our destination, we were all so excited that we were chatting non-stop. Our teachers let us explore the place for a while then we followed the teacher to the 'China' exhibition. We were given some worksheets to do as we followed the guide. He told us all about China in the past like what things happened, what was invented and others.
When we had finished our worksheets and everything, our teachers let us explore the place before assembling to go back to school.
This BICEP trip to the Science Centre was a meaningful and fruitful one and I hope to have it again next year.

Last Thursday was our table tennis competition finals. My junoir girls team had to assemble in the canteen before setting off to Chongfu Primary School. My team consisted of Celeste, Yu Xuan, Jiarong, Haohan, Julia, Claudia and me. We were so anxious that we kept on saying that we were going to lose. The schools that we had to play against were Nanyang and Ai Tong. Of course, we could not win Nanyang but maybe for Ai Tong.
After singing the National Anthem and saying the pledge, my team and I set off with Madam Eng. When we reached Chongfu, we went to greet our coach and practised with her for the last 20 minutes. Celeste was the first single, Claudia and I the first double, Jiarong the second double, Haohan and Julia the second double and lastly, Yu Xuan the last single.
The first match started at 10.30. We were going to play against Nanyang. All of us tried our best to win them but lost 5-0. We then had our break. I bought some drinks and snacks to eat as I was famished. Later, we went to the hall again to play against our next opponent, Ai Tong.
We played against Ai Tong at 11 am. They were quite an easy feat as we beat them 4-1. Our coach then told us that we would be 3rd in position in this whole competition. All of us shouted in glee. We would be getting our trophies on the 18 of July. We were elated. So, as a treat, Madam Eng treated us to a scrumptious Mcdonalds' feast! All of us had the nugget meal.
We then went back to school to tell the Senior Boys this delightful news as they were going to play the finals later in the afternoon. I hope that we will continue to work hard and get first next year! :)
