In recent history, only one woman was believed to have succesfully escaped the world's so-called greatest prison, in England. It was Maya Bordeux. Some had seen what she had done. It was on the surveillance camera.
She had the power to poison others, blood leaking from their eyes, every moment she got very anxious. Well, that explained most of the deaths she caused. Ever since she discovered her ability, she felt helpless that she couldn't do a thing about it. For years, she has been on the run, hiding at covert places, fabricating a new name for herself.
Given her sorry plight, one potential reason why this had happened could be because that she had suppressed her feelings every time it happened. Resulting in the cumulative effects of it. Still, the police are still trying to look for her, as she poses a strong danger.
It has been 30 years already.

Term2 Week1 Journal Entry
There once lived a rich boy. He lived in at atmosphere of opulence and had everything he could ever ask for. From toys to games, from books to libraries, everything. Well, almost.
Ever since he was small, he was greatly spoilt by his parents. There was never once that his parents would say no to any of his requests, if it was possible. Living in such a lush house, it was certain that was very reliant on his parents. But the very one thing that the boy lacked was basic principles, like respect.
Most of the time, when he went to school, he would always pick on those others who lived in destitution, looking down on them, even giving fulsome remarks. Which leaves us to ponder on one question:
What if all rich kids were like that?

Persuasive Writing - Computer Game Addiction
Most of the time, many parent's first reaction to the mention of computer games is just simply one word. Bad. But it isn't all that bad. True, it might seem, as more kids and teenagers nowadays tend to spend more time staring at the screen for long periods of time, instead of focusing on their studies. But, there are positive points too.
Yes, playing computer games is not healthy for children as it strains their eyesight. Moreover, if they become addicted, it might result in eating and drinking right in front of the computer. In this state, the child only cares about the computer game and nothing else. They might lose interest in what they liked previously. For example, their hobbies, sports, going out with the family on weekends. Also, their grades in school would drop drastically if nothing is done.
Parents can help their child get out of addiction by trying to get them involved in other outgoing activities that he or she likes, to keep their minds away from the computer. Or, you could restrict them from using the computer, unless necessary. But, if this doesn't work either, you could also let them play for a limited number of hours. If serious, you should get your child counselled.
On the other hand, there are advantages to playing computer games. It can help improve the child's strategic skills, knowledge, calculation and others. Such games are also known as educational games, whose objective is to improve the child in subjects like english, maths, chinese and many more. Furthermore, it helps keep the child busy and has a possibility of improving his school grades.
While, most parents think that playing computer games is bad thing, most know how to deal with it, and their child. They should learn how to control their own children, to not let them become further addicted to computer games. Overall, it still depends on the individual itself.

There is 1 person in my class whom I hate the host, and that's David. He is such a pesky person, for all I know he could be the most reviled student of the whole school!
About him, he has done many horrible wrongdoings. First, he broke a toilet seat and left it in the toilet bowl. Gross. Secondly, he used a fart bomb in class, and had to delay everyone's time doing a chinese test. He was almost expelled. There were others. Just so many, such that whenever something bad happened, everyone in our class would indict him as the culprit, just like the boy who cried wolf, except that he doesnt bluff others.
But, he has a poor background. He came from a poor family, and ever since then, he had endured many vicissitudes of life. Although some sentimental souls become maudlin for his sad story, the fact that that he did many bad things is still there.

There was once a poor boy, with lived on the streets of poverty. He had a very bad childhood. When he was born, his parents had abandoned him as he had a birth defect.
He had only his left hand. Later, he was adopted and raised by a legion of villagers.
10 years later, somehow, he managed to remember his past after much nostalgia. Everything. Hurt, he would always cry at night to relieve the pain inside him. He was unable to accept the fact that his parents were that cruel to him.
He tried to tell himself to forget everything, that it was all mendacious. But, he couldn't. It kept ringing in his mind, his parents were parsimonious people, greedy for money. All his friends classmates in school treated him like an expatriate. He was completely rendered helpless.
All he could do was to suffer in silence.
