speech

Dear principal, teachers and fellow schoolmates. I am the chairman of the Green club. Judging by the boring looks on your faces, i am not here to talk about creating recycle bins for your class or to collect newspapers. I am here to talk about a graver matter, something so grave that it will undoubtedly affect or life and our next generation, I , am here to talk about " Saving our Earth"

While we are enjoying the luxuries of life, sleeping in air conditional rooms, Feasting on scrumptious food, while people living on the other side of the earth are suffering from our comforts. People are dieing from starvation and here we are wasting food and natural resources.

People that will cherish whatever food they can have and that they will be elated to find bread in a bin so that they can eat and share with their families and here we are choosing what to eat, what is nice and what is not. Eating 3 meals a day is the norm for us and we demand good food and not plain food like bread.

People there have no toys and use wood and sticks as their toys and here we are, wanting more and more. Each time our expectation of better things increase.

Nothing seems to satisfy us.

Through rapid industrailization, we humans have depleted many of Earth's natural resources. Through activities like, deforestation,forest fires, mining activities and excretion of the solutes into the sea. The Earth has caught a cold according to the scientist. Strange things are happening to earth. The "El-nino" and "Le-nena" effects are just the tip of the iceberg. Scientist are still confused by what is happening.

Low lying areas like Hong Kong may just disappear right before our very eyes as the ice caps melts and the sea level rising. Animals are becoming extinct and our child may not even have the chance to catch a glimpse of a panda.

How disastrous!

As we are progressing towards a mordern society, our environment is degrading. All this must come to an end.

I always had a dream, a dream that the world will be green again.

Where the sun greets us every clear and bright morning.

Where the trees sway under the light breeze.

Where birds chirp happily, welcoming us.

Where the sweet smell of flowers brightens up our day.

All this can be done as we have a dream, a dream to save the earth!!!!!!!!!!

one word topic (MONEY)

Money cannot buy anything and everything. Money cannot buy you happiness, money cannot take away your loneliness, money cannot take away your fears and sorrow. we live in an era where nothing comes free. Whatever we do requires money. From simple tasks like buying basic necessities to buying a house. Money is very important in our life and we cannot live without it. Its like humans are the tree and money is the leaf. Without any of them, none will survive. It is bleak reality that everyone wants more money for themselves.

The notion that the world is basking in nefariousness is too extreme, but we must resign to the fact that it is inevitable for man to be susceptible to money allurement. Many yearn to satisfy their whims and fancies. Whenever people hear that there is free stuffs, no doubt human first reaction is to ask where is it and to go there immediately. Impressionable people often fall prey to the lure of money. Imagine one day when you received a phone call telling you that you have just won $50000 in a lucky draw. Exhilaration will then bubble up inside you and you will be filled with exuberant and jubilation. when they say that you just need to make a small deposit of $1000, you will be too happy enjoying this glorious moment that you will just accept. This is when you u got scammed. To get what they want, people will conceal their wrongdoings with a concoction of lies and deceit to escape the blame.

Here is an example. My friend like all of us teenagers spent alot and money to us is vital for our daily life. when one person wants money desperately, he or she will resort in any method to get their hands on them. Be it in secrecy or by force. In schools nowadays, theft is quite rare but low crime doesn't mean no crime. My friend was a very wile and vain person who only wanted the best. He was not rich and i was wondering how he had the ability to but those exquisite goods which is not cheap. Then one day, i saw him during his "routine check" he was in a sec1 class searching in people's bags. In his hands were two handphones and 3 wallets.

Reality hit me like a slap on my face as the action in front of me rendered me speechless and severely traumatised me. Many thoughts swarm past my mind. the good side of me told me report but the bad side of me told me not to betray my friend. I was in a dilemma. i decided to give him one more chance hoping that he will turn over a new leaf but he did not. He was later apprehended and caned.

Its human nature to be greedy but we must learn to control ourselves. statistics have shown that crimes involving money is rapidly increasing and felonies like robbery, blackmailing and kidnap is all because the person wants more money. people nowadays are also more vulnerable to phone scams. People believe others too easily and that we usually do not think that far thus It is easy for those people to get your money. Greed will make people go mad and it breeds mistrust among people as people for money may even betray their love ones.

Overall i think that although money is important it can cause many detrimental effects and i believe that "Money is the root of all evil"

Stress

As the world improves, people also need to i prove to keep up the pace of society. People in the olden days led stress free lives and need not bother about money and being able to cope in studies. Being able to eat 3 meals a day to them is enough.

Childrens can be seen playing merrily with each other at the lakeside or running aroung the valleys, playing catching. In the 21st century, things changed drastically and technology has became more advanced and thus peple need to upgrade thmeselves.

Chidrens nowadays often have headaches about school life. Msny commented that school life is touch and they dont enjoy going to school. Reports have show that there have been a rise in sucidal cases for students. This may be due to the fact that the students are getting too stress from studies through peer pressure and family pressure.

Mnay felt that they could not make it thus deeming thenselves useless. This may lead to sucidal. Such young talents wasted.

Are parents over reacting over children nowadays?

Children in Singapore are pampered kids. The got everything prepared for them from what they eat to what they wear. They are like robots already programmed to do what the are supposed to do. They got no freedom.

They can't learn to be independent. When they want to go out with their friends the parents object, because they are afraid that they will get lost. From this how can children learn how to be independent.

Parents care too much about their children. They are scared of this, scared of that. They never can put their hearts down on them. They love them to much that they unknowingly are hurting and harming them. Thsy should let them do hwta they want but with certain restrictions. Let them know what is life, let them know the world not like frogs in wells.

When parents are free, they can bring their children out, go to places of interest to broaden their horizon. Bring them overseas once in a while, i bet the children will enjoy whatever their parents do for them.

As i stood in the waiting room, i began to feel very woried. Would survive the operation. I paced around the room with fears of constitution and destitute. " why did it happen to my Mum?"," why can't it be me instead?". The more i though, the faster i walk.

I though of my past acts, all though bad things i did to my mum. I promised to god to anyone, murmer softly to save my mum at all cost, i will not stir up trouble for her again. I will do anything to save her. "Please let her survive."," let me have i chance to redeem myself."

Tears start to cascade down my face as i fall onto the ground, depressed with my fingers crossed. The lights flashed green and a doctor came out. I rushed towards the doctor and implored him of my mum's conditions.

He bowed his head low and said that he tried his best. I couldn't believe myself. I could not tak it anymore and crumbled down like a helpless tree being chopped down. I was stunned ont the spot, stuck to the ground like devil snare grabbing me, i couldnt move.

I walk beside my mum's bed and cried my heart out. It was the last chance i could hold her. Suddenly i say tears rold down her eyes. Then she woke up and looked at me and laughed. I was shocked and the nslowly realised that it was a prank my mum played on me.

I was so relieved that i could throw all my savings away. From the day onwards, liek i promised i treated my parent like GOD.

Fears

Ever though of what will happen to you when you die? These thoughs kept flashing through my minds these few years, my deepest FEAR. "Where would i go after i die?", "how do i feel, see and touch?" These rehtorical questions have lingered in me for a long long time. No one could ever answer my quetions, these questions will never be answered.

Imagine yourself stuck in the lift in a public holiday, with the light blacked off and with no handphone. How would you feel when you cant see anything. As the time ticked by the air gets thicker and thicker. How would you feel? Scared? anxious? This feeling is like death when you cant see aor do anything just laying there, asleep for a long long time.

There is no cure for fears. It is up to ourselves to believe that it doesn't matter and ots allright but for me, It could never be chnaged. Whose not scared or death, We can only wait for death to come greet us in whatever way he wants.

Thats "LIFE!"

In a land far far away there exist a valley. The valley was idyllic and people there were merry and gay. The childrens can be seen playing merrily at the lakeside and catching each other. The parents can be seen sitting together to chat. There wass no place better than this.

People lead stressfree life and never had to worry if they have enough money or not. They like to talk to each other in a jocose manner. Whenever anyone hunted an animal, they would celerate, jubilant faces could be seen on their faces as they sing and dance around the beast.

The people there had proper decorum and was never rude to each others. They never malign each others and always enough each other to strive for the best the very best one could be.

What a lovely place this is.

Don't you think so.............

there was a girl that was obese. she was dislike by her pals and no one wanted to be friends with her.It was very pathetic to see her ask others to play with her or look at them with longingly eyes hoping that one of them will invite her to play with them. People usually just treat that shes not there. she was never in bliss. She always has the gusto feeling around her. She always participated enthusiastically in class and was the teacher's pet.

That made the people hate her more. They started to gossip about her and came out with bad names of her like big fat pig or ugly witch. She was hurt by those words but she controlled herself from exploding, but everyone has a limit.

One day she was on a particularly bad mood and once she stepped into the classroom she was greeted with "Hi piggy!" She on the spur of moment slammed the table and punched one of the girls with all her might. She was instantly flanged off the ground and blood was gushing out of her body. She was filled with blood and groaning with extreme pain.

She was lost for words and ran away and hid from reality. "what have i done?" She decided to end her miserable life . All the unhappy thoughts flashed through her mind as she slowly walked towards the rooftop. She saw people enjoying themselves with friends but she was just sitting at a corner watching gloomily.

as she placed one leg on the edge she closed her eyes and greeted death like an old friend. That ended a young soul.

Once when the wall street crashed, it caused bedlam throughout the whole world and many went broke and homeless as all the stocks were now useless.

Boys nowadays in the society...... (personal views)

It is inevitable that we childrens are fasinated by those action-packed computer games and some are addicted to the computer like it is the only thing taht they will life for, without it life would be meaningless. It is especially prevalent for the boys to neglect their studies and spend their life on computer gaming as it gives them a sense of satisfation and power. In the game the are deemed as "la crem de la crem" meaning the cream of the crop. They are powerful and strong and people respect them. But studies to them is a tussle and tehy often feel lethargic when they need to do homework as they say that thinking drains their energy and is not good fir their health. Once in a blue moon would you see them get studying and get their bum of the computer chair and eyes not glued on the screen. Their grade would obviously be like that.... and that reflects alot of our personal life and our well being thus one can argue that although the computer brings us alot of advantages it also brings us alot of disadvantages that may destroy our whole future.

Stress......... Exams were just around the corner and John like all other boys are feeling the heat now. He like all other boys are burning the midnight oil hopoing to do some last minute revision and hope that he will at least pass. Every night he would imbibe Chicken Essence hoping that it will keep him awake through the night. Many thoughts flashed pass his mind. He was a son of two famous sages in universities, full distinction in all subject but he was the complete opposite. How disappointed will his parents be if they find out that their only child cant even manage a pass. How pathetic! He was filled with rue. He was in a deplorable situation. How would his parents react?? Two thoughts flashed past his mind. To run or to stay???? he sat there pondering for a long long time...... He wore his scandals and walked out and took the lift UP!!! He arrived at the top storey. His every step reverberated and echoed through the surrounding. He took a step up the ledge and many happy moments with his friends and parents. He took a deep breath and jumped.. Cut!!!! Too unreal john... Again please and when you feel depressed again you can come here to act again. Your acting is quite emotionally just now. And John just .. just....

Mnay villagers nowadays and in the past believe strongly about objects that are sacret and fetish to them. These aretefacts they believe once belonged to their ancestors. They will do what they can to protect it from harm,inviolable to others , even when it means giving up their lives for it. Such absurd thinkings. How native of them. Once a war had started among the opposing villages because one said that one of them tried to steal their "fetish" and they started a war. It lasted for 3months and many blood were sheded. Each still did not stop despite the entreaty of the villagers. The village heads were still fusing over this minor matter and now are still at logger-heads.

Finally one brave man came out and destroyed both aretfacts and he was killed but the conflict was resolved. Such a precious and brave young soul lost. ALl was at lost.........

The war had raged on for decades and decades. What perpetuated the war the war is that both countries cannot get togeher well and work out a peace treaty among them. Both countries wanted to be powerful and rich thus they never gave in to one another. This proved irascible to the citizens and especially the soldiers in war. The mortality rate has been increasing rapidly and had already increased ten folds from the previous clash. This was catastrophic and if the war raged on the consequences would be unimaginable and unbearable.

As the community welfare minister i strongly urge all of you all the srike against the war to prevent more injuries and deaths.

Say no to WAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the runners acknowleadge that he is in doubts of whether he wants to go china and highly potential that he is not attending it. Many of the perple are unhapy with the olympics are demur it. Many protestors could be seen protesting it and trying to disrupt the smooth flowing of the olympics.

I believe that to hold an olympic the country should be in tip top condition and be in aplle pie order.

Is war ever justified? i doubt so...

I think that is a bias action that countries do for their own gain so there is no right or wrong to war. one country ca just say that they started the war for their self defence and not the purpose of dominating the other country. It has razed many cities and countries and left them in a state of pandemonium and havoc. The results of war is lethal and has affected many lifes in the world.

Many countries that are idealistic tried to bury the hatchet and try prevent future wars from happening ever again. But i think that it is impossible as wars will still happen not matter hard one try.

I believe that war helps to boost the economy and some countries benefits from the war by selling weopens to fighting countries. Well as a whole i think that war is bad and should be stopped by all means.

John, the scion of the wealthy lawyers, lead a lush life of opulence and luxuries. He never had to worry about anything as everything has been planned properly for him. He got anything and everything he wanted ranging from the latest action figurines to the most fashionable clothes. You name it, he got it. He will always have two strings in a bow when he does something for example making a new friend. Firstly he would keep talking to them if it failed he would buy things for them to make them happy and be friends with him.

People usually think that rich people are spoilt brats but John also has a kind side. He was deeply concerned for those who led their life in destitution and impoverishment. He was heartbroken to hear that that are still many people out there that don't even have a proper roof on top of their heads and even worst cant even afford a proper meal each day.

He decided that when he grow up, he would help them and nurture them to become better people with at least a glimmer of hope in their eyes that they can succeed in life and not be an outcast in the society.

John become infamous for his generosity and care for the poor.

She eyed the fruit knife that she had just sharpened. Along with it was a penknife and a few other weopens. It would be easy. All she had to do was to wait for him to abuse her near the box. She would not have to wait long.

Apparently, she was right. Almost immediatly her employee strutted into the room and indicted her of neglecting her chores with unabated anger. The sight of his pesky sent an adrenial of fury bolling through her blood. However she masked her anger. Revenge would be her's soon. A minute later, he advanced on her, his fist curled into a ball ,ready to deliver a punch. She backed away towards the box. He would pay for all the vicissitudes he has caused her. This would teach him not to reviled her anymore. A fraction of a second before her employee hit her, she plunged the knife down on him.
