My younger brother



This is my younger brother Timothy Tang, he is currently studying in Innova Primary School. He is nine years old turning to ten soon. He is a kind, caring, and a puppy lover. He is an active person who likes playing soccer everyday. He is a fan, of the England soccer team, Chelsea.







Sometimes he can be very annoying and mischievous. For example he can hide my homework or books for few days before I am able to find it. Once he hid my library book for one week, and only returned it after I pestered him for three days. On other days, he can be cute and fun to play with. When he is happy, he will ask me to play soccer with him or basketball. Usually, when he is alone or bored, he would be playing with his soft toy puppy. His soft toy has been accompanying him for five years and it is still in good condition. If I do anything to it, he would be upset. I guess that soft toy has become part of him.








The picture on the right was taken just two months ago in Australia.


Now he is quite brave as once he walked into a shop in Australia and he said: "Hi, my name is Timothy and I am nine." We were all shock, because he was usually shy around strangers.






In conclusion, I think my brother is funny, caring, kind, mischievous and annoying.

Literature Night-2008




When I was primary 4, in China, my school held a program called Literature Night. It started from five in the evening until 7 pm. In this program, each student and teacher were required to dress as one of their favourite character from a book or movie, and put on a skit, parents are invited too. I decided to dress up as The Phantom of the Opera. I was also required to act in some Greek play so I had to wear two costumes. This photo here shows me before the play( I had my hair done already) After that, I had to go to the restroom to start changing. The changing part took ten minutes, but putting the white cream on my face took twenty minutes. My mother was the one who helped me put the cream because she knew that I would mess it up(Left picture) Soon I was ready to go and enjoy the rest of the evening.




The first place I went was the canteen as there were many delicious snacks made by the Parent Helpers. So I settled down, ate some brownies and a Japanese dessert. Next I visited the library as there was a storytelling session. After the session, I went to the Grade 3 classroom where free ice-cream was given out. I can tell that the ice-cream was vanilla-flavoured, and it was mixed with Oreo and something that look like mud. The ice-cream was made because they were telling a story of a worm and the ice-cream was meant to describe the place where the worm lived. At first the parents thought it was real mud but it turned out to be ice-cream.


Soon it was 7pm, and everybody was required to leave the school compound. School buses were provided to send the students home. On the bus, I had to wipe off the cream as it scared a driver while I was looking out of the window. It was 9pm when we reached home, we were all exhausted. Even though we were tired, it was still a fun night for all of us.

All about me







My name is Tiffany Tang and I am 13 years old. I have a playful younger brother and a quiet younger sister who are both in primary 4. I love reading books, especially the books written by Rick Riordan. I enjoy listening to songs sung by David Archuleta and Westlife. My hobbies are drawing, reading and playing with Lego. I have also lived in 3 different countries: Switzerland, China and Malaysia. I studied in Elias Primary School, Wuhan Yangtze International school, Innova Primary School. I have been to many different countries and studied in different schools due to the nature of my father's work. He is required to travel to many places, and my family has to be relocated whenever it is neccessary. I enjoyed the most in the international school as I have the opportunities to interact with students from many different countries and of diverse backgrounds. There were students from Japan, Korea, Iraq, Germany, Hong Kong, England, South Africa, United States and so on. From this experience, I learnt about their cultures and how to live in harmony with so much diversity.

After returning to Singapore more than a year ago, I had to re-adapt back to the Singapore environment and ways of living. As I went to an American International School, I picked up the American accent, thus most of my Singaporean classmates found it amusing. I lost the accent after few months, however it took me quite a while to get rid of my American spelling style.

Though I have travelled to many countries with my family, I still think Singapore is the most ideal country to settle and live in.
