The remote-controlled aeroplane

4 September 2020 I bounced into the room with my new remote-controlled aeroplane. It was gold and black with a red swirl at the side. It was a high powered aeroplane that could only be flown outdoors. I have saved money for a long time to buy it. Placing it on my table, I decided to try it on the next day, because we would go to hike.  After a refreshment, I went into my room just in time to watch my mischievous little cousin Sunny holding the aeroplane to do a plane dive. In a gentle voice, I told him to put it down a few times. "If you do not listen, do not blame me for being rude." I said in a serious voice. I hold the front of the aeroplane wanted to snatch it from him, but he hold the end like grim death. "Crack!" the plastic shell of plane had split into two parts. I snatched the remain part of the shell from him." Leave here!" I roared to him when he was out then I slamed the door fiercely. I spent the entire night trying to fix it, but the harder I

Unexpected Event

17 August 2020 A brilliant Sunbeam was slanting through a gap in the curtains. It was shining right on to my eyelids. Annoyed, I rolled on and ducked my head down into the middle of my soft pillow. Wondering about the time, I stretched out my arm to grasp the sport car-shaped alarm clock on my bedside table. I was going to be late for school! Jumping out of my bed as I opened the wardrobe door. I grab the sandwich for my breakfast and rushed out of the door. "Phew!" I reached school just before the gates closed. I dashed upstairs and went into the classroom just in time for taking the math test. "Open your answer booklet and start answering ." announced by the teacher. I flipped through the pages and started pondering. It was a piece of cake to me so I was drifting off. Suddenly, the teacher announced last 30-minutes and my heart began to race up. As time quickly run away, my pencil dashed though the paper. When I was trying to catch up the time, my tummy started lu

An Unlucky Day

 31 July 2020 One morning, I got up with an ill omen. How right it was! When I was on my way to the McDonald's for breakfast , I accidentally slipped the phone.  "Thud!" My hands were trembling ,as I picked up the phone. The screen cracked as a web. My heart sank as I could imagine my parents would erupt like a volcano when they saw the broken phone. At home when I was about to watch my favorite cartoon, the TV was out of order. I was very furious, so I clenched my fist and hit the sofa. I was so bored, so I decided to go to the library to borrow some fictions. It never rains but it pours. I found that my library card had disappeared. My eyesbrows shot towards the ceiling as my jaws dropped to the floor. I searched my wallet over and over till I was sure that I forgot to bring the library card. I knew that it was better for me to go home . I was at a loose end at home, so I went into the bathroom to take a shower. After a refreshment, I walked out from the bathtub. The wa

A strange dream

12 July 2020 Last night, I had a strange dream. In the dream, my parents told me they will bring me to the beach, so I was as happy as a clam.  It was a cloudless day, even with the sun blazing down on us, there was a slight breeze. The sand was soft like cotton. The sea wind crept into my nose, it smelt like salt . The sea water was so clear that could let the light go through it easily. We made some gigantic castle by sand and played the beach ball with my dog Betty. My parents were enjoying their sunbathing on the beach chair. We were going to swim when the black cloud gathered above us. At this time, my father spotted something above the sea coming to us. Soon, it came to the coastline. It was a "micro tsunami" or a gigantic wave. We scuttled off, but we failed. The wave came closer and closer as if it was enjoying our horror. Out of the blue, there was someone jerk me about roughly . I yawned and looked up. It was my mother who was jerking me. Then, I looked at the clock

A field trip with our class

26 June 2020 Last Sunday was a cloudless day, even with the sun blazing down on us there was a slight breeze. Our class wen to the Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden by a tourist bus. On the bus , I could not sit still as my excitement dashed  though my veins. The journey seemed to take ages. Ultimately, we arrived. When we get off the bus, the guide was already waiting for us. He introduced himself first. His name is Jerme. Then, he lead us to the Botanic Garden. We walked around and he introduced the different types of trees to us. Next, we went to the farm. There were ducks swimming in the ponds and a turtle perched  on a rock. The turtle seemed to enjoy the sunbathing . The opposite of the pond was the stinky pig shed and their poo was smelly and disgusting. "urghhhh" ! The most naughty boy called Astro in our class had a itchy feet. He found a beehive nearby. A wicked smile spread across his face as he pick up a tree stick and hit the beehive with all his might. Our legs t

Helping People Brings Happiness!

14 June 2020 Albert likes to help others. One day, he met a little girl in the Mall. She was very sad so her eyes welled up with tears. He went up and asked in a soft tone, "what happened?" She blubbered "I am lost." Then she told him how did her mum look like.  They looked up for the girl's mum everywhere but there was still no sign of her mum. She was feeling so upset that tears started flooding in her eyes as she hung her head low. He comforted her and said "Don't be afraid, I will be with you until you find your mother." They couldn't find her mum so he decided to go to the Information Centre with the little girl. At the centre, they told the customer service officer that the little girl was lost. When  the customer service officer heard the news, she was cool as a cucumber. Like a bat out of hell, a voice boomed out the public announcement system, she said "Ann Lam's mother please come to Information Centre.” A few minutes later,

Diary

2 June 2020 Sunny                                                                                                                              30May2020                          Today, I went to the toy shop with my parents for chosing my birthday gift. Because of the delicate toys display in the toy shop showcase attracted me, we walked inside and looked around. "Bang! Bang!" interrupted me. It was not the sound of toys falling down, but the salesperson playing the game console. I spotted the cute teddy bear that showed in the showcase. My eyes sparkled with light as I asked my parents in a soft tone "May I buy the teddy bear , please? " I blinked my eyelashes. My mother said "Let's buy it, sweetie." "Would you take the teddy bear and let me have a look?" asked my mother. We strongly requested,shouted several times to the salesperson. He slowly went back to the real world and scowled at us. Then, he growled "Here, $100!" M

Playing a trick at school

30 May 2020 Tommy and Peter wanted to play a trick on Kimmy. Peter had a mischievous idea. A wicked smile spread across his face. They went into the male washroom and filled in the balloons with water. Peter thought that's not enough, so he said  "Let's prepare two ultimate balloons." They waved to Kimmy who was playing ball games and shouted "Hello, Kimmy!" when she looked upwards, two water balloons attacked her fiercely. Unfortunately the balloons were too close for Kimmy to escape from. So in a few seconds, she was soaked to the skin but the attack didn't end. Then, two ultimate balloons zoomed towards her. "Splash!" the balloons exploded on her, inside of them were pee! They burst with laughter when Kimmy was bathed with pee! Kimmy was furious. She said "Why me!" The girl who was playing with Kimmy was the eye witness so she dashed upstairs and told the teacher what happened to Kimmy. When the teacher dashed to the playgrou

Getting Sick After Overnight Stay

28 May 2020 Tim went to his cousin's home last Saturday. The boys had a whale of time of playing video games so they burnt the midnight oil. Next day, bad luck approached silently. Tim had a sore throat and a fever . He was sweating rapidly and lying in his bed all day. It was the rehearsal for the drama on Monday, so he bit the bullet and went to the school. At the rehearsal, Tim was wearing a mask and had a hoarse voice. Also he had a few cough during the rehearsal. The teacher was dissatisfied with Tim so he asked Tim to go to the corridor beside of the hall. Tim was nervous about what's going to happen. The teacher said in a voice like a furious lion "You have ruined the rehearsal!" Tim told him about what happened at Sunday. Tim was feeling so upset that tears started flooding his eyes as he hung his head low and walked away from the teacher. The teacher shouted at his back "Take a good rest at home. I will find a back-up for you." He nodded in

A visit to the Dental therapist

24 May 2020 Last Monday, my mother took me to the School Dental Clinic for my dental check up and teeth scaling. I was terrified. Worst of all I did not have a good sleep the whole night through. At ten o'clock, we arrived at the clinic just in time . Then, we registered at the counter. The staff told me to sit in the waiting zone. Later, the announcement system called my name and told me to go into the first room. When I saw the dental therapist, a sense of horror crept up to my face. I was ushered to the dental therapist's chair. Normally I would run away from the frightening surgery with all its horrible drills and pliers, but I did not. I had to get the check up and teeth scaling. So I sat down on the reclining chair while the dental therapist kept saying some reassuring words. I relaxed somewhat. She asked me to open my mouth. I did so. She started to check up my teeth. After a few minutes, the dental therapist started to scaling the teeth, I felt that the water

Stopping a Fight

19 May 2020 "How dare you!" hollered Jack as he clenched his fist and punched Ken on his cheek, causing him to stagger backwards from the impact. I watched in horror when I saw the look of surprise on Ken's face morph into a furious glare. He was undaunted by Ben's actions. Retaliating with a punch of his own, he hit Ben squarely on his eye. Immediately, Ben covered his eye and bent over in pain. Dissatisfied with the result, Ken raised his right foot and kicked Ben's stomach with all his might. Reflexively, I stepped between both of them and tried to push Ken away. However, he was too strong for me. Shoving me aside, he advanced towards Ben and raised his fist in front of his face, threatening to hit him again. Without hesitation, I helped Ben to his feet and tried to drag him away but Ben was not to be defeated by someone who was smaller-sized than he was. Ignoring me, he lunged at Ken, engaging him. Both of them were my best friends. I had to stop the fight

Caught in a storm

15 May 2020 Black clouds gathered above us, but we were too intent on going to fishing. We hoped that the clouds would go away so that we could continue fishing. Our hopes were dashed when suddenly heavy rain began to pour. In a few seconds we were all soaked to the skin. To make matters worst, lightning flashed dangerously close to us. The deafening thunder and howling wind did not help either. We ran towards a large tree under which we had parked our bicycles. The tree provided some shelter from the rain and we were tempted to remain under it. However we knew that it was dangerous to stay under a tree during a thunderstorm. So we got on our bicycles and pedalled off. There was no other shelter available nearby. So I, for one, decided to go home. Since I was already completely wet, I might was well to go home instead to seeking shelter. On the way back home, the driving rain made cycling difficult as I could not see more that a couple of metres in front of me. Accidentally,

A trip to Ocean Park

12 May 2020 "Faster, faster. " I mumbled. I could not keep my mouth shut as excitement rush through my veins.  My parents were bringing me on a trip to Ocean Park! The journey there seemed to take ages. Ultimately, we arrived at our destination. After a short time, we reached the cable car tower. Enthusiastically, we got into an empty cable car. The view out of the cable car of the arrays of mountains protruding into the South China Sea was second to none. It was spectacular! The ships were like tiny dots sailing in the deep blue sea and the people looked like tiny little ants from high above. After that, we went to the crazy gallon. When I saw this ship, my legs trembled and said "Nooooooo! " But driven by curiosity, I got aboard the ship. "This is the most horrible game I have ever had!" I whined on board. Then, we set off to the bumper blaster. The most I desired to play it in the Ocean Park. I played it with my father several times because it

Learning to cycle

9 May 2020 On a beautiful morning, the sky was brilliant blue and the leaves rustled in the gentle breeze. The fresh morning air was crisp and cool. My father was going to teach me how to cycle today, so I was like a dog with two tails. I tentatively placed my legs on the pedal as my father held my bicycle firmly at the back seat. Slowly, I pedalled down the pavement. After my father let go of the bicycle, I couldn't say boo to a goose, so the bicycle was acting like a tumbler. "Oh my...Crash! " l fell off from the bicycle and my knee got hurt. Fortunately, I was not badly injured. At that moment, I was feeling so upset that tears started flooding my eyes and I hung my head low. My father come to me and said, " Don't be dejected ." My mood was getting better because his words woke me up. Then my father hold up the bicycle. I took a deep breath and rode on the bicycle again. After trying to keep the bicycle balance a hundred times, l finally could contro

Going to the Wetland Park with my parents

4 May 2020 I have always liked birds, since the day I heard of those fantastic creatures that could soar through the skies. Normally, I can only see most of them in books and on television, or the ordinary ones flying around Hong Kong. Last Sunday,  I eventually had the chance to see many different species of birds. I was thrilled when my parents told me that they were taking me to the Wetland Park! After a short Light Rail Ride, we arrived at the gates of the Wetland Park. My parents and I took a photo near the Eco-maze. It was not long before I saw the tall wooden building. It was the birds hide. We walked into the building. When I looked through the telescope, I could take a closer look to all sort of birds. From richly coloured kingfisher staying near the water surface to snow white egret preying in the water, the sight of these magnificent creatures had me racing up and down the park. We finished the lunch. Then my father suggested us to go to the Mangrove Boardwalk which i

My First Attempt at Cooking

1 May 2020 Last Sunday was my mother's birthday.  Because of the covid-19, we couldn't go out for dinner. My father and I decided to prepare a surprise dinner for my mother. We want to cook a meal that made my mother drool with envy. At afternoon, when my mother was out with her friends, we prepared the ingredients. A wonderful dinner cannot miss the desert, so I made the pudding and put it in the refrigerator. Next, I started to make the main dish, I put some "emian" and water in the pot and lit the fire. Then, I took out a king lobster and some shrimps from the refrigerator. I washed the lobster and shrimps. When everything was ready, I put the pan on the stove and started to fire the lobster "emian" . While I was busy as a bee for handling my lobster, my father was in charge of borscht and a piece of steak. We were exhausted after cooking a big meal so we took a rest in the living room. We fell asleep consciously. Suddenly, I smelt something burning

My best friend

27 April 2020 When I was being scolded by a prefect at recess,a boy with black skin and short hair stood up and said for me. "I can prove he doesn't run! " he said to  the prefect so that the prefect had to release me. When I turned around and wanted to say "thank you" to him, he disappeared. I yearned to see the boy again but did not even know his name nor how to get in touch with him.However, we were destined to meet again. The following Friday, I was playing games at recess when I caught sight of a familiar figure. I rubbed my eyes and took a closer look. Shocked, I  could not move an inch. It was the boy who had helped me! I seized the opportunity and invited him for a snack. From then onwards, we became good friends. The strange encounter which brought Remi and me together took place 3 years ago. During this time, I have come to know him intimately. He is an outstanding student in studies but also in Art. He is an Art freak which drawing and pain

A pulley accident

26 April 2020 I put on the safety halmet  that I need to  jump into the pulley perching on the top of the curvy slope. I had been queueing for a long time and I was very anxious to get started. I nodded at the instructor who was going to tell me how to control the pulley. It was the first time I had seen a real one but I was sure that l already knew everything."blah...blah... blah... blah..." Annoyed, I didn't  listen to the instructor. When the instructor said "Then, let's go! "  Zoooooom! I went. The pulley was off in a flash. The pulley zoomed ahead so fast that my heart was in my mouth. I was moving my center of gravity to control the pulley. It was too late by the time I noticed that the turn in front. I did my best to turn the pulley. I closed my eyes tried not to see the bloody scene that may happen. When I opened my eyes, I was safe! I did it! I did it! I shrieked excitedly and waved my hands to my mother. I relieved the brake. Then, a bad luck

The boat race

25 April 2020 Asmos stood between six other boys. He gripped the remote control in his hands. There were seven different boats in the water in front of them. The race was about to start. It was the first time the school had held a remote-controlled boat race. Soon, a whistle was blown. He pressed the green button on his control as hard as he could. His boat shot foward. The other six boats followed closely. They sped down on the water and screeched around the first bend. The spectators cheered. The boats sped arcoss the water. The war was about to start. At first, one boat overturned at a sharp turn, then a boat crashed into it. Asmos was a good driver. He turned his boat smoothly around the bend and used his powerful motor to splash the water on the other three boats. His boat and the last boat sped towards the finishing line. Asmos's hands were wet with sweat. He was both excited and nervous, his heart said to him "lt's not the time to be happy." He listened

A Terrible Accident

24 April 2020 "Oh no! I'm late! I'm late! I'm late! Linda cried,  jumping out of the bed. She had somehow slept through her alarm once more. Linda quickly threw on her clothes, brushed her teeth and ate her breakfast. Then she ran out the door to try and catch the school bus. She was too late. She saw it already driving away down the road. She had no choice but to walk to the train station to take the train. She was waiting for the train while a man rushed towards the platform. He tripped and fell onto the track. The train screeched to stop, but unfortunately it still rolled over the man. Watching this bloodly scene, she was stunned and couldn't move an inch. At that moment, a voice boomed out over the public announcement system. It said "All passengers needed to take a different route to wherever they were going." Linda was very late by the time she got to school. Strangely enough, she didn't get booked because the teachers knew of the accide

Bullying at School

17 April 2020 "Ouch! It really hurts!" shouted the little boy. When I heard this at recess, I looked at the bully. I found that he is Anson Li, the biggest bully in the school. At first, I was passionate and about to rescue the boy. In my head, the angel and devil started to quarrel. The angel said "Help him, he is a pity boy", the devil then started to fight back"Freaking, don't help him, you will get into trouble. " The angel said" Teach Anson Li a lesson! " The angel ruled my soul. At that moment, while Anson was going to punch the little boy's head with all his might, I rushed toward the boy and pushed him. I crossed my arm to withstand this punch, I won and he sneered. He did a "come out" gesture. His partners all came out. First, he got the upper hand. At this moment, you would probably ask why did you win? I would say "I win luckily because a kind student saw it and told the teachers. The teachers came as fast as
