1) What talents (new or hidden) have you learned/discovered about yourself this semester?

In the past, I dislike cooking as I think it is very troublesome and it’s very stuffy and oily to stay in the kitchen for a long time. The first time I entered the F&N kitchen, I do not know how to cook. But after learning some simple dishes, I find that actually we get to rest in the kitchen and it is not very hot and stuffy inside. We work with our partners so we can try to do different things. Also, it is not a tough thing to cook. Although some times, the hot oil will scald our hands, but after eating the food that we cook, we have a sense of satisfaction. When I let my friends try the food after school, they said that it is quite tasty. As this is why I developed a hidden passion for cooking and I know that I actually have a talent in cooking.

4) Think back to a time over the past semester when you faced a challenge or made a big mistake. ( a bad grade on something, letting your benchmarks pile up until the last minute, etc.) What sorts of lessons did you learn about yourself from the challenge and/ or mistake? How did this influence the way you did things after that moment? In what ways does this experience help you to plan for the next semester?

Now thinking back, I remembered that I almost failed my mathematics, science and geography in the first semester. I was quite sad and had prepared to get chided by my mother. After school, when I reach home, I break the news to my mother but she didn’t scold me. In fact, she encouraged me to work hard and score better result next time but I could see that she was quite disappointed with me.
From this lesson, I know what had causes me to score such a bad result. It was due to my laziness and that I always like to prepared my exam in the eleventh hour. It also had also influence me that I will need to work hard in order to score better result next semester and to clarify my work with the teachers whenever I had any doubts on it. Not only that, I had learnt to prepared my exam early and not in the last minute.

In the second semester, I will work hard and try not to make any careless mistakes in the future. I would try to:

-play less computer games
-pay more attention in class
-do more assessment
-set a target
-made less mistakes
-read the instructions carefully

To aim my target, I would have to do all this things and do my work with determination, or I would not able to succeed. I would make a time table and try to make more time for my work and less outing so that I would able to sort out my time well and would not mess it up or waste any time. Attention in class is also very important in class as we may miss out something that is very important in our exams. A target is also very important as well as we do not have a direction to go and would not strive for it so I would made a change in myself and strive for better grades to reach my target.

I think that a bad mistake that lead me to bad grades on my exams is carelessness. Careless mistakes are something I would always make during my exams and all the marks add up and would pull down my grades. Now, I would check my work thoroughly enough, again and again and read the instructions carefully. This not only help in my grades, but the way I do things too, and to check what it ask for and whether it is correct to do so, but not impulsively. This had made me understand the importance of marks during exams. In the next semester, I plan to do some assessments books during the holidays and revise my work and prevent myself from getting the mistakes again. Mistakes bound to happen during exams but as long we are careful, I am sure that we can prevent it from happening.

2)Goals are very important for our life.Without a goal, you do not know even where to go in life so I have a goal in September.The goal is to get good results in my SA2.Everytime,I put a goal in my life,I have a obticles to face.Everytime I study,my big sister will switch on the television.I will always ask her to lower the volume but she will ignore me.Sometime I will tell this to my parents, but there will not believe me.Whenever I stut the door,my younger brother will knock on it as I and he share the same room.Sometime my favorite television shows begin when the time I start to study.I have to try to be determined and not to bother to all this and concertried my work.Not all the time,I can be determined,sometime when my favorite television shows begin,I will be atticded and watch the show.Altough I did not get a A1 for my exam,I will work hard for next year.


3)In primary school,we have projects but not so much.In secondary school,we have projects in almost all the subjects.Projects helps us to understand a topic more easily.Pupil are lazy to do project. Project also helps to reflect a topic.Like example if you learn a topic but after a week,you forget about it. Project help you to remember it.Projects also helps you to show how much you understand about a topic.At First I hate projects a lot as it require a lot of work and you need to spend a lot of time to it but later then I knew it is to my own good.To my personal opnial,project is good. Project is usually meaningful to me but some people think that project does not do any benefit to them.Just doing extra work does not kill you.Instead of just showing the answer, project helps you to understand a topic more better so my advice to all people who do not like project is start liking it as you need it in work.

4)Usually during holidays,my seconary1 teachers will give a lot of holiday homework to do during holiday.Last time,I ususlly hate to do my homework.Everytime when holiday starts,I will not do my homework and play with my sisters.When the holiday was coming to the end,I will still play with my sisiters.

5)There is many steps to grow/change as a student in the second semester but every importantly,I will study hardy.In secondary 1,I was fooling around but in secondary 2,I will not fool around like secondary 1.When my exams are approaching,I will not play with my sibling but study harder.I will not just say it but I will mearnt it.When it is silent reading,I will contsentrate. and read my storybook.In secondary 1,I will take to read a page in 2 minutes.Instead of reading 2 minutes,I will take to read a page in 1 minute.I will start my reading on 7.20am.In class,after the teacher had left,I will take out the next lesson book.Usually in secondary 1,after the techer left,I usually daydream but I will never do it again because it is to my disadvange.I will always get ready for the next lesson.I will pay attension to my teacher always.This do not mearnt I do not pay attension in secondary 1.Doing all this,I will grow/change as a student in the second semester

1) 1) What talents (new or hidden) have you learned/ discovered about yourself this semester?

In the past, I dislike cooking as I felt that it is quite troublesome and I also didn’t know how to cook, not even instant noodles. I always had to rely on my mother to cook for me. On some occasion, when my mother was not at home and I was feeling hungry, I will munch on some biscuit, as I didn’t know how to cook.
But after since I attended the F&N classes in school, I learnt how to cook a few simple dishes and I enjoy the whole process of cooking as the lesson is going on. During the practical exam, you have to come up with two dishes in less than two hours without the help of your partner. Not only that, you also have to decorate your dishes and wash all the utensil within this two hours but I did it. When my friends and my mother taste it, they all said that it is quite delicious and that is when I realise that I had a talent in cooking.
It also had enlightened me that we can’t always rely on our parents to do things for us; we have to learn to be independent.

1) In this semester, I discovered that I have a good talent in art and craft as I always have a good grade and good comment given by my art teacher. Although my grade this year for my art and craft did not meet up to what I want it to be, but I will continue to work on that.
Art and craft is one of the subjects that I like. Although it will be difficult for me to handle my homework next year, which is an important year for me as it allows me to chooses the subject that I like to study in sec 3, I will still make up time or put in extra effort in my art work. But I will also not neglect my studies too.
I will strongly recommend my friend or my family to do art whenever they are free as it helps to claim them down from stress and pressure. For those who fine interesting in art can also join art club, there is many activities you can do there.
