Opened and checked the mailbox today, I saw a letter from HKEAA. I felt agitated and troubled. In no time, I rushed back home. When I sliced open the envelope with a knife and took out the letter, I got informed that my results will be accessible on HKEAA website fifteen days later. I have butterflies in my stomach.  Time flew, today the result would be announced. Distressed, I started fidgeting. I typed the website, entered  my username and password. I quivered with anxiety. The page seemed to load for ages. When the page finished loading, the disappointing number 83 reached my eyes. I started with a little bit confused, and then a little bit resentful, and ended up with heavy - hearted and blue. My eyes welled up in tears. I had put very much effort on it, and I got high marks in the mock exam. My mother comforted me, "It's no need for being gloomy. The exam is over. The only thing to do is to work harder and achieve better score at the next exam." I nodded.  ...

A brilliant sunbeam was slanting through a gap in the curtains. In no time, I jumped out of my bed since I remembered that dad said he would teach me to cycle this day. Just after the breakfast, dad took me to the nearest park. I was so excited that I could not stop fidgeting. We soon arrived at the park with my bicycle. Yet, I found that learning cycling was not that easy as I thought. At the beginning, dad held the bicycle at the back to make me safe. I found the first few pedals were hard ones. Nevertheless, the condition improved rapidly as I kept trying. After a few minutes, I thought my cycling skills was proficient and asked father to let me go by myself. I can see his anxiety rushed through his veins. He thought my cycling skill was not good enough. Before long, I was sailing down the hill of the park rapidly and going to crash on a tree. I attempted to change my direction forcefully, but failed. My father comforted me and encouraged me, "Never be beaten down by dif...

One day, Daisy called me. She told me that she would go to Europe for two weeks. She asked me to take care of her pot plant. Immediately, I agreed.   ‘Ding-Dong! Ding-Dong!  ‘  The doorbell rang. She gave me her pot plant and reminded me to water it daily. From then on, I placed it at the balcony under the sunlight and took good care of it.   After a few days, when I was playing video games in the living room, I heard a bang out of blue. My jaw dropped to the floor because I spot that Daisy’s pot plant had flipped over. Thanks to my beloved cat, Coco, it probably tripped the pot plant over when it was playing at the balcony.  I was cross about Coco, but it’s useless.   I went psycho to rescue Daisy’s pot plant. I took triple as good care than before and kept Coco away from the balcony. However, it did not seemed to recover and start to wither slowly as it has been severely damaged. I felt agitated.   I felt remorsefu...

Dear Mike,   How are you? Yesterday, I went home by bus after school. I was worn-out after a whole-day lesson. Fortunately, I found a seat. On the bus, I spot a couple was talking, eating hamburgers and drinking cola.   The bus disgorges some people but swallowed more.  A pregnant woman got on the bus and was searching for a seat. I remembered that we should offer our seat to sick, elderly, disables, or pregnants. In no time, I offered my seat to her.   At the moment I left my seat, out of blue, the young man spilled his cola and made my seat and the floor wet. The couple felt awkward and embarrassed. They left from their seat and dashed to the bus door. They then got off at the next stop. The pregnant woman and I sat on the empty seats which originally belong to the couple.   Write back soon!   Love,   Vicky  

21July,20XX ( Sun)                                                                                               Sunny   Dear Diary,           This morning I went to Central by ferry after visiting Grandma. On the ferry, I saw a man who was wearing a mask and a pair of sunglasses. He looked  suspicious  that made me remember the bank robber on news last week.           Before long, two women sat down while chatting. One who sat next to the suspicious man putting her handbag on the seat. My intuition told me that things were not so simple. It seemed that he was pondering how to steal something. He couldn’t sit still for long without fidgeting.    ...

On the opposite of my desk was a boy and a girl. The girl was doing her homework. The boy was reading a science fiction. It seemed that they did not know each othe...

Hi Jason,   Yesterday my classmate, Daniel, and I helped some Primary 2 students with their homework. We were in the “Big Brother Big Sister  Programme ”. We started with explaining questions on their English homework.    After a good explanation, we moved on rapidly. We got only one student left after one quarter, and she had problems with her mathematics homework. She complained about the sums that she thought was difficult. So, I read the sums and I thought they were easy. I explained them clearly and she understood the first few questions. Nevertheless, it took longer time to make her to understand the questions that were harder. She was feeling upset that tears started flooding her eyes and she hung her head low.   Out of blue, she could not contain herself. Within seconds, she erupted like a volcano. ‘I could not bear  it!' she shouted. Annoyed, she dropped all the books on the floor and dashed away, leaving me stunn...

Hi Ken,   Last week, Mandy and I visited a children's hospital. W e  arranged a puppet show for the children, telling them a story of Aesop's   Fables. The children were over the moon. Mandy and I were performing amidst the hollers of laughter. A sense of happiness crept up to my head and a gigantic grin spread across my face.             After the splendid show, we arranged 'DIY time' and taught them to make their own puppets with old gloves. Everyone was happy except Tom. He turned away as his eyes welled up with tears. I soon found out his hand was severely injured and placed in a cast, so he lost the ability of making puppets.  I consoled him immediately. Then, I had a good idea. I decorated his bandage with delicate decorations. His eyes lit up like the sky on the first of October.       Write back soon.       Regards,    Dave   ...
