Dear Mrs Tay,
Malacca is rich in the Peranakan culture. The Bibiks and Babas have a rich heritage there. I love Peranakan food.They are yummy. The chendol is to die for.It is generously laden with the ultra delicious and ultra unhealthy coconut milk and gula melaka. Such cholesterol laden dessert is difficult to find in Singapore. In Singapore the best chendol is in Bedok at a stall named "Hollywood". A botak man serves all customers with a big friendly smile. When I eat the chendol, I would feel very sleepy after that. I would be completely immobilised. This botak man's chendol is best eaten when you have just sat for a stressful test. The chendol would drug you and send you into a long restful sleep.

Dear Mrs Tay,
My family and I fell in love with Japanese food and the Japanese culture when we visited the country a year ago. The Japanese have high standards of discipline and they always aim for quality work.We should emulate them. In Disneyland I noticed that all the baby strollers were parked symmetrically. each parent would park the stroller in a very disciplined fashion. So the rows of strollers were positioned in neat and impossibly straight lines. How amazing! On top of that , the japanese are also honest people. Bikes need not be chained up because no one steals them. That's again another amazing fact about the people of japan. They are honest, through and through.

Dear Mrs Tay,
You wouldn't believe it.The last time my family and I were at Equitorial Hotel in Malacca, the entire basement carpark was packed with Singapore cars. This time when we arrrived, there were none. Our car was the only one from Singapore. What happened to all the Singaporeans? The H1N1 virus really frightened everyone. Even the Malaysians seemed to prefer to stay safe at home. My family had the entire swimming pool, the Japanese restaurant, the Peranakan restaurant and the Cafe Bar to ourselves. And guess what Mrs Tay, we had the entire Eye On Malaysia to ourselves!

Dear Mrs Tay,
My dad could not clear leave at any other time except the 31st of May. So that morning we packed all our things and headed for malacca. When we arrived at the second link,I was taken aback. There was an eerie silence. There was no jam. There were only 3 cars. We cleared the immigration in less than 5 minutes. Evrything was strangely quiet. When we hit the highway, the same thing happened, There were hardly any Singapore cars. We felt a liitle scared. Johor is known to be crime-infested. If our car broke down, there would be no Singapore cars to hail for help. We finally arrived in malacca in less than 3 hours. It was a smooth journey.

Hunger
In some countries like Africa, there are many people or even children who die because of starvation. Not only on person dies because of starvation, but hundreds of them die. In some countries, the government sends food donated by the citizens to the poor countries by air. If I were one of them, I would be in high spirits whem I get the food. If I witness the children eating the food, I would feel very sorry for them as they eat as though they have not eaten for many days. The cause of dying from starvation is when the children do not eat, they will not grow muscles. Muscles give them energy to move to one place to another.Thus they cannot get food They can only crawl or lie on the ground. The worst sight of all is when they are going to die. They helplessly lie on the ground. Vultures and Hyenas gather around the starving child. Then it would be a feast for them.

Dear Mrs Tay,
Yes it is true that creativity is something that is inborn and can never be thought. Everybody is different. Imagine an artist like Van Gogh. His paintings had a different style than other artists.His style was using strokes.Van Gogh was born with it.Nobody can master the exact way that Van Gogh painted.Even I can't do it.My father has a tallent in drawing. He can draw realistic pictures without refering to any books.This is an inborn tallent. Very few people has this ability.

Dear Mrs Tay,
Courtesy means being polite to someone. Every Monday when I take the taxi when I go back from school,I always greet the taxi driver even before I tell them where I want to go.However,some Singaporeans have hatred among people.They behave rudely to other people even though people don't disturb them.These people are I'll mannered. I think that Singaporeans have to learn the correct attitude and behaviour towards other people.Frankly speaking, I don't see courtesy being used around me because people don't speak to each other.Drivers don't give way to others on the road.Some people don't give up their seats especialy in the MRT when there is a person is sitting on his seat.Then he sees an old women who just came into the coach.The person will pretend to sleep so that he doen not need to stand like the old women.Some poeple have good behaviour.Now thats exelent.Singaporeans should have good behaviour towards others.This makes other people from other coutries think that Singapore is a great place to like in.
