More School Tom Peters was out at the public football field. Tom had been playing catch with other eleven year-olds Tom was an ordinary eleven-year old boy. He was about five feet tall; he wore a t-shirt and tennis shoes. He was enjoying his summer that he felt he could not be deprived of. It was a beautiful day‚ there were very few clouds‚ and it was about seventy-five degrees outside that day. The birds were chirping and the noise of kids playing with each other and having fun filled the

My dream school Monday‚ April 22‚ 2013 A Dream School in My Mind Have you ever thought about why you are going to school? Or have you ever talked to yourself: “Oh my God‚ it’s school time again.” The environment keeps changing all the time. We change houses‚ jobs‚ friends and schools. We might often ask ourselves a question: Is there any dream places where we would like to stay? If you have a chance to create a dream school‚ what is your dream school going to be? In my mind‚ a dream school is

It looked like every other one that I had seen in pictures‚ but there was the feeling that this one could possibly be mine. The week before‚ I had been furiously searching Craigslist and Jeep Forum classifieds looking for a Jeep‚ particularly a Cherokee with low miles‚ little to no

My First Trip to Korea This was my first time flying. I can remember getting on the plane scared and excited all at the same time. The plane was filled with so many people that looked like my mother all in the same place at the same time. They all had pale smooth skin‚ very slanted eyes‚ and coal black hair some long and some short. We had now begun our journey to my mother’s home in South Korea. The flight was extremely long‚ especially to me. I was only five years old. This felt like a dream

It was my first study week in Nilai International University College. I am in this college since the end of March 2008. That is the turning point in my life. Last time I was just a simply high school student who was busy in my previous school compound‚ SMJK Yu Hua Kajang. After the SPM examination‚ I worked part time until I get my result lately on 12th of March. No longer after that‚ I turned into this college. I found that it is difficult for me to follow those subjects especially ENG112 after

reconstruct my first visit to Nigeria. The journey took place when I was seventeen in early 1993‚ during which time Nigeria was under the military rule of General Sanni Abacha. For the most part of my trip I stayed in Lagos‚ former capital state and still highly recognised as the commercial capital of Nigeria‚ although I did visit other parts of the country including Ondo State and Jos. Between this time and the time I left‚ in early 1994‚ I experienced and learnt a lot about the Nigerian culture. My main

contraption‚ I shivered as though ice had replaced my spine. The cold air that blew into my face engulfed my entire body. The multiple layers of clothing could not protect me against the swish of frosty air. The walkway leading up to the helipad was newly paved; I could still feel the soles of my shoes sink into the cement just a little as I walked up the path. It’s ironic how my heart did the exact same thing. It now felt like it was forcibly pressing against my lungs as I struggled to breathe; asphyxiated

perfect school is a place where we spend much time‚ enjoying school life‚ friendship and getting knowledge. However some things could be changed in the school I am studying now. The lessons should be shorter‚ and the breaks – longer. Students should only study the subjects they really enjoy. That s why Information technologies and Physical Education should be removed. The teachers are often the reason of misunderstanding pupils. Boring lessons are the result of such relation. Our school should

Recently‚ I made a list of what I think my perfect school would look like. As I began developing the list‚ I was struck by two things: Firstly‚ how most of it was about making school more student-centered‚ and secondly‚ that I didn’t mention technology once. For me‚ this second trend bears a little more fleshing out. I would never say that there is no place for technology in education‚ far from it… But I think the place of technology is to support a more student-focused‚ relevant and engaging methodology

An experience that makes me proud during my first year of school was failing. It was a wake-up call‚ a realization that I could overcome a difficult obstacle due to the mistakes I had made. Therefore‚ I dedicated all my time to make-up all the classes I received low grades in. I pushed myself to persevere and not become a high school drop-out; I refused to be labeled a failure. I worked twice as hard in the classes I had received low grades; so when I was taking them again I would pass with a better
