Elijah's Life Experiences

Learning how to ride a bicycle has been quite an experience for me and it has not been easy! Here is a short essay I wrote when I was in Primary 2  (8 years old) on this. Well in this picture composition, it was rather smooth-sailing though! Learning how to ride a bicycle It was a Sunday afternoon. John’s father brought John to East Coast Park to learn how to cycle. John was excited as he had always wanted to learn how to ride a bicycle.                    When he got his bicycle from the rental shop, John immediately hopped on the bicycle, put his feet on the pedals and started to pedal. His father told him not to be afraid and to just keep pedalling. John listened to his father’s instructions and kept pedaling on.                    After ten minute...

Have you visited the Universal Studios at Sentosa, Singapore yet? I spent a most memorable day there and decided to write an essay about that trip. An Exciting Day at Universal Studios in Sentosa Last Saturday, my aunt and uncle fetched my parents and myself from our house to Universal Studios in Sentosa. My cousin, Chloe also tagged along with us. When we reached the destination, we found out that we were there early and the gates were still closed.                    After the gates were opened, we queued up at the ticket machine to scan our tickets to enter Universal Studio. After letting the ticket machine scan our tickets, we found ourselves in a place called “Hollywood”. First of all, we went to a place named “Madagascar” to try a ride which was called “A Crate Adventure”. Next we went to a rude called “King Julie’s party go around”....

Accidents have been happening more frequently in Singapore, haven't they? I hope drivers, motor-cyclists, cyclists and pedestrians alike will all take ample precaution and keep both our roads and pavements safe. Here is an essay I wrote on the details of an accident. An Accident It was a bright and sunny afternoon. John was making his way to a shopping centre. He was crossing the traffic light junction between Queenstown and Queensway. Out of the blue, he saw a van hurtling towards him . At a quick glance, he noticed the van driver talking on his mobile phone. Just then, the van driver lost control of his vehicle. The van was going against the traffic. The driver of the oncoming car slammed hard on his brakes.   Unfortunately, it was too late. Although screeching to an ear-piercing stop , the car rammed head on to the van.  Desperately, the van driver clung onto his steering wheel trying as far as he c...

I have always loved birthday parties , whether it be mine or my friends'. Here is an essay on "The Surprise Birthday Party" , which I wrote when I was in Primary 2  (8 years old). The Surprise Birthday Party It was a beautiful Saturday morning. Jill was excited today as it was her birthday. She went down the stairs to have her breakfast with her family. Jill was excited as she ate her delicious breakfast. She was looking forward to her birthday party. In the afternoon, the whole family except Jill, went out shopping. Jill decided to take a nap while waiting for them.                    When she woke up, Jill went into the living room to check if her family had returned home. She found that the living room was dark and nobody was around. Strange, it was already into the night and her family had not yet come home. Jill decided to ...

Here is a short essay I wrote about the lost purse when I was in Primary 2  (8 years old). The Lost Purse One sunny day, Mrs. Lim returned home after spending the entire day out shopping.  After putting away the things she had bought, Mrs. Lim went into her room to take out her belongings from her handbag.  After taking everything out, she discovered to her horror that her purse was missing!  Mrs. Lim was shocked!  She searched everywhere in the house but she still could not find her purse.  Worried, Mrs. Lim decided to go to the police station. When Mrs. Lim got there, she saw a man with a purse that looked like hers.  “It must be mine,” thought Mrs. Lim.  She quickly told the man it was hers.  The man gave the purse back to her.  Mrs. Lim was so relieved to have found her purse.  She thanked the man profusely for being so honest and wanted to offer him a reward.  The man instead refused the reward...
