Elmaine's memory:
When I see the word 'PET', I would think of my mother's dog when she was young. My mother had a dog when she was young. The doy was named Blackie. He was not bought from any pet shop, but, was picked up by the roadside, thin and hagged. I remembered how my mother use to talk of Blackie as a dog who is very loyal to her. As far as I can remember, Blackie was a rather pitiful dog. He was abused by his previous owners. My mother felt sad for him and my grandparents agreed to allowed my mother and her sister to keep the dog. The dog had an affection for my mother more than her sister. No matter where my mother went, even in the house, Blackie would follow her. According to my mother, he's a rather obedient dog. He doesnt really cause troubles for them and is properly toilet trained. Of course, he have already passed away but he was a great dog.

SISYENA's memory
When I see the word, "pet"...
I think about the time I lost one of my turtles. I had 5 turtles, four male and one female. The female died the first about a few months after she was bought. Then, I was left with the 4 turtles. One day, at night, when the tank was left outside, a stray cat had entered our house, and bit off the head of the turtle. It was quite gross and sad to see the tiniest and most helpless turtle the next day floating in the tank without a head, dead. For the next few weeks, the tank was kept in the kitchen to protect the other three remaining turtles. They are still living up till now. Two of them have been in the house for seven years, and the third one, which was bought at the same time as the one that had it's head bitten off, for five years. Tiny little Issac will never be forgotten.

When I see the word "tree"...
the first thing that came to my mind was the big trees surrounding the car park when I was young. When I was about eleven, the big trees there were chopped. When I noticed that the huge trees were replaced by little trees, I was so surprised that I quickly ran and asked my father what had happened to the huge, tall trees. I was so young at that time. But know when I had grown older; I know that wood is used for many purposes like making furniture, utensils, pencils, flooring, paper and many others.

Yuva's Memory...
During the March holidays last year I went underwater in the South China Sea of Malaysia at the Tioman Islands.
My family and I took a motorboat to a beach nearby where two people onboard thought us how to use the snorkeling gear and provided us with a life jacket. Shortly after practicing at the beach, we were brought further out to the sea. One by one, we jumped into the icy cold water. Instantly we were surrounded by hundreds and hundreds of colourful marine fishes which looked absolutely out of this world. I had some bread in my hands and the fish literally ate them. It was the closest encounter anyone can get to feed real life fishes while in their habitat. I will never forget swimming amongst the fishes and the scene of beautiful corals in the wide blue ocean.

Nurul's Scariest Moment...
The scariest moment of my life occurred when I at universal studios, USA. I went through this haunted house maze and the ghosts were so well-dressed up that they looked like real ones. When I entered, there was this Pontianak that clenched me by my neck and threatened me with a knife. What a scary incident!

Found blog...
Blog link: http://www.srgmerlion.blogspot.com/
The blog has a very attractive layout (that is, to Liverpool FC fans). It is very easy to find all the parts of the blog (the tag board, music player, blog entries, linkages, etc.). The pictures and graphics (though there are only three) are also related to the main theme of the blog, which is most likely the Liverpool FC. They are also of good quality, one of them even edited by, most likely, the owner of the blog. However, the pictures do not really enhance reader interest or understanding, though, as the pictures are just pictures of Liverpool’s well-known striker, Fernando Torres. This blog is most likely intended for Liverpool FC fans. The owner has made an attempt to attract the fans to his blog with the contents of the blog, by posting news of soccer matches involving Liverpool FC, for example. There are some spelling errors and short forms used as this is probably not for formal use. The blog could be meant just for family and friends only, too.
My Happiest Moment...
I was very happy when I received my PSLE results. Due to my negative attitude towards studying the whole year, I expected somewhere from 220 to 240 marks out of myself. However, in the end I got more than 250. It may not be that high like 260 and above. However, it was about 20 marks more than I expected. I thought I could only go to Paya Lebar Methodist Girls' School (Secondary), and only because I was affliated. When I realised I could go to other schools like Anderson Secondary School and Cedar Girl's, I was beyond overjoyed.

Found blog...
The layout is good. There is a picture to show what the blogger is recounting about. The background of the blog is quite simple and a little dull and boring. Overall, i will give it a 3 for its layout. The blogger recounts the place that he visited is like a dream place and the picture depicts the same. So overall, the graphics are good as they follow the description of the blogger so for graphics i will give it a 4. The content is good as the blogger describes the place very vividly. The blogger makes the place and the visit sound very exciting and pleasant. Finally for content, i will give it a 4.

My Moment...
During the march holidays, I went to India. The moment I stepped out of the India airport, I received a culture shock. Over the next few days, I got over the culture shock and started to like India. My favourite part of the trip was shopping. I managed to buy clothes for my cousin’s wedding in December. I also attended a far relative’s wedding. I learnt that weddings in India do not take place on time. The roads in India are rather bumpy. I also managed to visit some relatives which I have never seen in my life. Overall, I enjoyed my trip very much.

Found Blog...
The link of the blog is http://carboncouture.blogspot.com. The layout is quite simple and attractive, usable in the sense that it is easy to see everything in the blog and it is really organized. I will give the presentation /layout three marks. For the theme, it is about fashion and there are graphics about shoes, clothes, bags, spectacles, hairstyles and other things related to fashion. It enhances readers’ interest and also helps them to gain more knowledge about how to make your normal stuff into something more special. I will give three marks as well. For design and graphics I will give three marks as it has purposeful photos showing the variety of things from the latest trend. It also sticks to the theme. For the category interest, the author put pictures and information on the blog. The author also presents in an interesting way, with many pictures so that it will not be boring so that the readers will take some time to slowly browse through the photos posted. I will also give three marks for this category.
My Happiest Moment...
My happiest moment was when my whole family went out together. I could still remember that it was my first time watching a movie with my family. During the movie, we ate the popcorn so fast that we finished it before the first half of the movie. After that, we even went to a beach. Next, we went to a nearby hawker centre to have our dinner. Even though the day was simple, it was a day to treasure for me.

My happiest moment was when I received my PSLE results. I didnt expect to topped the class, nor did I expect to do so well. I thought I wont do so well because of the Maths paper that was a killer. But when I saw I got an A* for Maths, I was bursting with happiness and pride! I cant believe my own eyes and was rather shocked. That was my happiest moment that I can remember so far.
