Reminders

Just a little reminder to anyone coming to this accursed and abandoned excuse of a class blog. Or more to the point, just to post some random stuff here to keep it...barely...alive.

Those who haven't paid up the camp fees to Surya for the June holiday camp, remember that it is $10. Camp is on 2nd to 4th of June. If you haven't passed up the camp fees, I'm not really sure how the heck do you go about passing up the camp fees, especially since its the June holidays already...although I think that everyone from 2D has passed up the fees... but still, SMS me ASAP. Surya wants a list of those that didn't...lol.

Two-star kayaking course would be held in late June, I think it is 21st June then followed by 23 and 24th of June...I'm not too sure. For those that want to change their minds and go to the danged thing, or else 2D would be the only class without anyone going to the kayaking course LOL. =) Just a reminder. And Husain, Friday has the flag party thing. That is all. Yes I am bored. Bwahahaha.

This is the End

This is it.

This is what it has become. This is the end. The end of the torture, the pain, the suffering. The start of a new beginning for the world. To start anew, refreshed, renewed. The world rejoices. The children play, the parents relax. The time has arrived. It has finally come, the time to rejoice, to play, to celebrate life anew.

For a week. We donned on our uniforms. Some were new, crispy and clean, some were old, thin yet comfortable. For a week, we sat upon our seats, edgy. Waiting for the battle to begin. For a week, we battled and waged war. Pens attacking paper. Questions assaulting the mind. For a week, we lost and won countless battles. Physically and mentally, we endured and carried on. For a week, we endured frustration, anger, nervousness and many more. For a week, we have suffered, toiled, through sweat and pain, thoughts racing in our minds. We wrote furiously.

We tried our best. We had our regrets, we had our joys, we endured our share of suffering. And we survived it all. Hardened veterans, suffering and enduring yet another battle, of wits, of pain, of the ignorance. The arrogance, the humbleness, the suffering, the pain. We endured it all. We assaulted impenetrable fortresses and strongholds, we conquered mighty castles and scaled tall walls. We were beaten before, but we held strong. Enemies had attacked us. Some won, but most lost. We remained strong throughout. We lost many in battle, but we still held on.

And now. It is time. Rejoice! For the evil had risen above us, and was beaten down! Rejoice! For we have emerged victorious in this battle of wills and wits! Rejoice! For we have reached the end of this battle. Rejoice! For this is the end for today, and be glad we have all survived. The exams are over. The time for enjoyment has begun. Video Games. Television. Sports. The battle is over, and it is time.

Rejoice.

What Should You Say In Your Letter?

What Should You Say In Your Letter?

Asking yourself a few basic questions can be an excellent way to approach letter writing. Jot down answers for your questions. You can incorporate these answers into the body of your letter. Remember to keep the letter short, simple, and to the point. Here are some questions you could ask yourself:

Who are you? (An obvious question, but you may need to identify yourself right away if the reader does not know you or does not know you well.)

Why are you writing this letter? What do you want? Keep your wording positive--for example, say what you want, rather than what you do not want.
What are your concerns? Be specific. After you identify yourself, focus on the primary reason for your letter in the first few sentences.

What are your questions? Ask them clearly. Be polite, but don't make your letter saccharine in tone. You don't want any misinterpretation of your purpose--someone might think an overly sweet letter expresses sarcasm.

How would you like the reader to respond to your question or situation? Suggest the response you would like: a letter, a meeting, a phone call, an email, etc. State exactly when you would like to receive the reader's response.
