Holiday

Five days’ holiday! It was such fun that I felt like grasping every minute. Maybe due to the coming separation, I shall cherish the moment being a member of group 8 before making farewell to my classmates.

Recommended by Mr. Medhi, we had a buffet lunch at a place in Orchard Road named Seoul Garden yesterday. It was really a running and extensive buffet! The buffet lasts over four hours from 11:30 am to 3:59 pm. Besides, there are lavish kinds of food such as porridge, fruits, drinks, tarts, ice cream and salad. However, the main dish was made by ourselves, that is, roast or boil food. Many had a difficult time learning how to roast, especially those boys. Kindheartedly, we three girls at the table roasted fish and beef for them.

Today was surely another exciting day because we together with group 6 would fight against group 4 in the basketball march. Unfortunately, we failed by several scores, but what I saw wasn’t the final marks but their effort and spirit! I knew they had tried their best. In the first half, Walter’s pale face suggested that he was uncomfortable. Even so he still persisted in playing the game and only rested for a few minutes. At the break, I saw sweat running down Edison’s face, but he didn’t utter one word about complaint. Later they rekindled hope when Felix and Walter’s combination gave no chance for our opponents to launch a successful attack. Then Walter scored three hits constantly and Edison shot a three-score hit. The scene that impressed me most was that they called for pause when there was only ten seconds left. The result was obvious at that time, but they still positively thought of any possible countermeasures instead of giving up. This showed their indomitability to every one present.

Only two days left for the holiday. I wish each of you would have a wonderful time!
