In medieval times, tales of knightly valour swept across the land. They were the stuff favourite bedtime stories were made of, passed in reverential tones from one generation to the next. Many a young boy grew up with knightly ambitions.
But just who were these men who saved maidens in distress, leapt across flaming bridges in a single bound, who slayed fearsome dragons and who were not above saving little kittens from tall tree branches?
Unbeknownst to the medieval public at large, the knights didn’t know who they were themselves. They had heard the same legends, had been recruited because of them, had dreamt of making it to the fabled Round Table. But did they save maidens on a daily basis, just before the lunch hour?
No!
In fact, here’s what a typical experienced knight’s morning schedule looked like:
5 am Wake up
5.30 am Feed the horse and clean its stable
6.30 am Watch a burning bridge jumping demonstration and discuss techniques
7.30 am Feed abandoned kittens previously rescued by other knights
8.30 am Attend discussion on kitten welfare
9.30 am Talk about horse feeding to junior knights
By the end of each day, most knights were too exhausted feeding animals that they were too tired to do any knightly things like save maidens in distress. Though all still wore their armour as they trudged through their activities, it soon lost its symbolism and did not seem that special anymore.
The King of the Round Table (You know his name, of course, Everyone does.) heard rumours about this situation, and started offering help. Over the years, he offered stable hands, more burning bridges, maps to find lost maidens, talks by specialists on animal welfare... and then, in an all-out effort to make sure everyone was helped, he threw two funfairs for everyone, with goodie bags galore, ranging from extra stable hands to better bridges to comprehensive knight-proof maps on how to find lost maidens, to talks and hands-on activities by specialists on animal welfare. The knights, said the king, would also get a complimentary armour polish and repair at the door, which was guaranteed to make even the dirtiest of armours shine.
When the knights heard about this fair, however, there were mixed reactions, though the discussion mostly centred around the armour shining and repair.You see, although all knights wore their armour daily, how they treated it was pretty much up to them. Some knights insisted on keeping their armour as shiny as it had always been, polishing it daily until they could see their reflection in it, as clear as day. Each new spot, each mark, each line was so clearly seen that other knights used it as a mirror when they assembled in the King’s Court in the mornings.
Other knights had let their armour tarnish, only polishing it when the mandatory cleaning sessions came along. This meant that their blackened armours shone in some parts with a burnished golden look. Which they thought that that made them look pretty rugged!
Then there were others who let their armours be for so long that generations of spiders called it their ancestral homes and fat mice clamoured in and out of gaping holes while the knights were asleep.
When news of the funfair reached the ears of the knights, the knight with the shiny, well-kept armour responded promptly to the fun-fair, insisting that he needed to learn how to maintain the shininess of his armour despite all his lines and marks. The knight with the tarnished armour, however, was adamant that anyone would touch his armour, which others had admired for its brilliant golden splotches. The knight with the rusted armour shared his indignation, upset that anyone would even think of making him chase away the families of spiders.
“What audacity!” he exclaimed. “Don’t they know how long the spiders have been there? It’s because of them that this armour has served me so well!”
One by one, the knights declined the trip to the funfair. Too far, one said. Too long, said another. Unnecessary, grumbled yet another. And in all truthfulness, there were some who weren’t even told, simple because the message got lost in translation and the “funfair” trickled down to the knights as “another talk on a burning bridge”, which understably, produced groans from all who heard it.
“What can be done?” asked the King, scratching his head as he read the grumbles of the knights.

After his delicious dinner,he sat on the sofa and thought,"How nice it would be if i was mum and could cook such a delicious meal!Hmm."As for mum,she was tired,so she went into the room and slept.Then,John went into the living room and caught a goldfish from the tank.John took out his toy pots and pans and started cooking.
He put the fish into the pan, used his toy ladder and fried it. Then, he garnished it with pepper and sauce. In the room, mum heard the splattering noise and went tot he kitchen and investigate.
She than found out that silly John was cooking her six-hundred-dollar goldfish! She snatched it from John and quickly put it back into the tank. Luckily, the fish was fine. She then reprimanded John for his silly actions. John pulled a long face and went back to his room.

One day, our PE teacher wanted us to play a game called"The Panther". We need to form teams of four. Our PE teacher wanted us to use the hinges in our legs to walk or run. She wanted the hunters to use tongs to catch the"Panther's".
After a few minute, she blew the whistle to stop the game. While we were in the classroom, she asked us to write a reflection about the game. We really had fun during the PE lesson.

"I wonder what is for lunch and dinner," Sam said. As Sam was walking home, he could smell the aroma of fried fish. He immediately knew it was fried salmon, his favourite dish. He ran into the kitchen just as his mother was about to use the spatula to slide the fish into the wok. " Hooray! Mum is going to cook salmon today!" Sam yelped in joy.
The salmon was turning golden-brown in the hot oil, so Mum scooped the fish up and placed it onto a beautiful plate with white rice. She garnished it with cucumbers. As Sam ate, he could taste the crunchiness of the cucumbers and the freshness of the fish. The fish was so delicious that it melted in his mouth. After lunch, Sam was still hungry and wanted his mother to cook salmon again but she was sleeping. It was then he had a brilliant plan.
From the corner of his eyes, Sam saw the family's aquarium. He walked into the storeroom and took out a mini fishing net. He took the net and walked back to the aquarium. He looked for the fish food to lure the guppy up. Sam poured some of the red-coloured fish food in the aquarium. At once, all the fishes swam to the top. Sam took out the net and caught the fat guppy he had been eying. The fish gasped for air as it came out of the aquarium.
He brought it to his room and ut it onto a toy plate. He looked in his toy box and found a toy cooking set. As he started the fake "fire", he used the spatula and slid the fish in. As he imitated his mother's cooking. Sam used his water bottle and sprayed water in. Water splatted all over the floor. Then, he used the fake spatula to flip the fish over. The toy kitchen shook. The noise woke his mother up.
As his mother walked towards his bedroom, she could hear grunting noises. When she opened the door and saw that Sam was trying to cook the guppy, she laughed. Both of them started laughing. Then, she told Sam not to do such a silly thing again.

"Wow, I wish I could cook too!" exclaimed Jonathan. His mother was cooking a dish called "sweet and sour fish." When the fish had turned golden-brown, his mother took the pan off the stove. She placed it onto a beautiful plate and garnished it with cucumber. Jonathan sat down at their dinner table to eat his lunch. He loved the fragrance of the sweet and sour fish.
After he had finished his lunch, he immediatly got off his seat and thought of something exciting. He decided to create a toy kitchen and to pretend that he was cooking.
"What if I really cook a real fish?" thought Jonathan.
He took a stool from the storage room and put it in front of his father's aquarium.He took a fish net. As he was trying to catch a fish, water splattered all over the floor.
He immediatly ran over to his kitchen as the fish moving and water was dripping onto the floor. He sat down and pretended that there was a flame. Jonathan thought of the sweet and sour that his mother had cooked.
When his mother walked past him, her jaw dropped as the fish was the one that his father had bought, and it cost hundred of dollars. His mother quickly put the fish back onto the aquarium. After a while, the fish was swimming normally. His mother scolded him but she did not tell his father about it.

I walked swiftly to the bus stop.Half way there,I noticed that the man was not far behind.When I saw my bus coming ,I ran to the bus stop, hoping to lose him.I turned to see him running as well.I sat down in the bus.I remembered what my parents had said about strangers following where ever you go,"Keep yourself surrounded by other people so the stranger will feel scared to do anything to you."
When I reach my bus stop,I quickly went down and ran up the over pass.He was still following me.I quickly ran down the other side and called for the life.The lift came down and quickly went in.I closed the lift door before he could catch up.The man used the staircase instead.My was beating faster than a humming bird's wings.When I reached the floor I lived on,I quickly went out of the lift.
I took out my keys and unlocked the front door.I went in and locked the door.I double -locked it.I listened for anybody coming.I did not hear anybody and that was the last I ever saw of him.I never saw him again.

When he drove to work,his head stuck out from the sunroof.He would feel too cramped if his whole body was is the car.
when people saw him, they would throw things at him and spread rumours about him.He wish that he could just be an ordinary person.

Hi, This is Sheryl, Josephine and Tharoob we're going to write Josephine's exam composition :)
Surprise!
"What a tiring day after school!" I exclaimed tiredly. It was a long, hard day at schooland I was exhausted. The exams are coming and I have been spending all my time studying.Suddenly, it was all silent and it felt awkward. "Am i being watched?" I thought suspiciously."Nah. All this is just because I studied too much. Now, I'm thinking too much." Then, I startedto relax. Then when I was walking, I just felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Suddenly, I heard a rustle in the bushes. I swung my head around and I saw a dark figure with big, round, baby blue eyes staring at me. "Who's there?" I shouted. Then, the dark figure ran like the wind. "Hey! Stop there! Who are you?" I chased him and followed him into the park.
All of a sudden, the figure stopped. I stopped too and panted heavily. I panted so fast that it almost felt like I could not breathe. The figure then turned around. "Dad?" I asked surprisingly.
He smiled and said,"Surprise." "Huh? Surprised?" I asked, confused.
"Surprise!" He shouted with a crowd of people. "Woah!" I exclaimed, amazed at what was before me. Balloons, benches, and everyone was holding a present. "Oh my! I most forgot my own birthday!" I exclaimed, embarrassed.
"You have worked extremely hard on your exams, dear! We wanted to cheer you up!" exclaimed Mother. "Thank you guys! I love it loads! Thanks!" I said as I hugged Mum and Dad. "This is the best birthday ever!" I said merrily. "Plus, its in the park!"
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you!" Everyone sang and clapped as I stood before my birthday cake. After the song, I made a wish and blew out the ten candles. Then I got to unwrap my presents. "This was the best birthday I have ever had!" I thought.

"Mmmm"said Ali.He could smell a wonderful aroma that was coming from the kitchen and saw that his mother was cooking fried fish. He felt his mouth watering. The kitchen was full of the smell of fried fish and it was really stuffy. The dish that his mother had cooked looked great. It was shiny and had a lot of vegetables.
Then,Ali had the idea of cooking a fish for himself. He went to the aquarium and used a net to take the fish out from the aquarium. The fish was jumping as it gasped for air.
Then,Ali took a stool,some water,a frying pan and a toy kitchen.He started to cook the fishand flipped it over with a toy spatula . As he thought about how delicious his cooking would be,he licked his lips.
Finally, Ali's mother came into his room to tell him that it was dinner time.To her horror,she saw that Ali was cooking their most expensive gold fish. The gold fish had cost one thousand dollars each .She was really angry.Ali learned his lesson of not cooking if he did not know how to do it.
