Military Band Rocks!!!

It was a long day today. I ended school at 2.10pm and had Military Band parade immediately. Having not eaten during recess, the last time I had ate was last night- I did not eat breakfast. So, during the entire parade, I was actually starving to death. My Military Band practice would start at 2.30pm and end 6pm. Ocassionally, the band would have foot drills but most of the them, the band would be divided into their different sectionals groups to practice among themselves.

As I play the Alto Saxaphone, I would practice and spent most of the time with my other saxaphonists friends. During every parade, I actually enjoyed myself as I got the chance the learn more and also socialise with my friends and seniors. Recently, about a week ago, I had my Military Band camp. It was fun as I got to know more about my friends and seniors. We also do foot drills and as we move from one place to another in the school (camp was held at school), we had to jog or run and could not take our own sweet time.

At first, before joining Military Band, I thought of it as a CCA that is boring and I did not even think of joing it until my parents recomended me to jooin the band. However, once in the band, I got to know that it is actually fun and enjoyable. The seniors are friendly and are always approachable. There's no other CCA in my school that is more fun and enjoyable like Military Band.

Coping Well With My Studies



As a term had passed, I had gained many experiences and also knowledge. I am trying my best to cope with my studies especially the languages subjects. To my suprise, I am actually about average for my Mathematics (my best subject) . In primary school, I was always one of the best but in SJI, I appeared to be one of thoses students who are weak in Math. Although having an A1 in Mathematics, the others in my class had higher marks than I. Two have full marks and majority have A1.

Anyway, for my other subjects, I am about average for the rest ( except Malay Language). However, there's one subject whereby my work is graded but not stated in the report book and that is Arts. Every Art lesson, the class would be divided into two groups : Group1 and 2. I am in Group 2. In Group 2, students get to learn more about digital art. We got a chance to design our own artwork and could even showcase our work. Upon completion, our work would then be graded so that students know where they stand in the class in terms of creativity and originality.



Below here is my masterpiece designed by me:

Life In SJI

It has been so far good here in St. Joseph's Institution. The pupils are friendly and also are the staffs. I got along with my classmates well and I now have many friends. I also have many programs in store for me and I can't wait to know what they are. Although, there's alot of subjects in secondary school, I managed to oragnise my time so I would know what to do at the right time.

A school term has just passed and I did fairly average for my subjects. I know I need to do well in the next 3 terms or else I would have a low average mark. Here's my grade for the following subjects:

English B3
Maths A1
Literature C5
Geography A1 (highest in class)
Physics A2
History C5
Malay C5

I know that I have to improve my languages and I will try my best next term. Tomorrow, I have a comprehension test which will be included in my Mid-Year Exam marks for English. I hope I do well. Wish me luck!!!
