Minister questions plans to separate conjoined twins

Q1) What are some of the problems involved in separating a conjoined twin

Q2) If you were a part of a conjoined twin, would you rather stay together with your twin for the rest of your life or would you risk both your lives to go for an operation? Why?
- It depends . If my twin is a violent person , i'll risk my life as i might be in danger if im continuing being a twin of the other person . But if not , i rather to stay together . But sometimes when we stay together , because there will be alot of troubles going to the toilet , playing together , or even sit on a chair . If there's a choice , i rather not being a conjoined twin . Some people have some troubles communicating with the siblings they have , or else is their twins . If they will quarrel because of a stupid reason , i rather not being a twin .

Ketamine (In Control pg 3)

Q1) What are the different forms of ketamine?
- The different forms are known as K , Special K or Kit Kat .

Q2) What would you do if you knew your friend took ketamine?
- I will stop them from taking first , and ask them what's going on , why did they resort in taking Ketamine . Of course , i will tell their parents and inform them about it . Maybe referring my friends to a counsellor might help them in solving the problem they are having . Taking Ketamine is a illegal thing to do , and once they are found consuming it , they will be fined $20,000 and/or going to jail . It is a very foolish thing to do , by taking Ketamine , and paying a huge sum , just for a small mistake they did . This may ruin her future , making her life difficult to find a job for her own . Ketamine(s) are expensive , once they're addicted to it , they have to buy the drug everytime , and they will be wasting their money . If they take Ketamine , i will counsel them first , and let them think how foolish they are , to think that drug can solve their problem or whatsoever . If whatever I did , wouldn't stop them from taking Ketamine , i think i will have to send them to the Drug Rehabilitation Center to stop them from taking . I believe those people in the DRC will convince him/her to stop consuming Ketamine . If my friend blame me for doing whatever im doing , i will make sure they will know , whatever i did , it's for him/her . Never a day it's for my own .

Getting to the heart of Total Defense , Home-Youthink page B7

Q1) In the last line, what did the writer mean by suggesting that "he may have found more porcupines than rats?"
- Porcupines have sharp needles that can protect them and defend themselves from their enemies/opponents . Once rats saw cats or their opponents , they will run away and hide from them . Porcupines are much more braver than rats , and if the writer suggest that they had found more porcupines than rats , i think they meant that they have more people who are brave than more people that will run away when they see their opponents . Which meant that , they had found more people that can defend Singapore , their homeland .

Q2) What's worth giving up your life for?
- Maybe giving up for my loved ones that are around me for very long time , some of them might be my family members , best friends or even my own pets . For that , i think it's worth sacrificing for them as they have been by my side . Although my parents are divorced , and i have a complicated family , i will still give up my life for my step-father , step-mother & step-siblings as they also , treated me very well and never look down on me although im their step-daughter or step-sister . My biological mother , left me when im still very young , but i still love her as how i love my loved ones , as no matter what i say , she's my mother . I think , the one i will give up my life for , mostly is my mother as i've been in her stomach before i was born , and also , i already gave her alot of troubles , more than how i gave my father , therefore , i will give up my life for her no matter what . I LOVE MY MOTHER VERY MUCH , so i will definately give up my life for her ! For my father , i will also give up my life for him , but not everytime . For my sisters , yes i will give up for them . They will always be in my heart ! My pets has been with me when im around 4 - 5 years old , definately i will give up my life for them also .

No Loitering After School (IN! pg 7)

Q1) Why Coral Secondary School forbids students to idle around near their school in their school uniform?
; Coral Secondary places much emphasis on inculcating in their students good habits like using time prudently.

Q2) Do you agree with this rule? Explain your answer.
; No . Although we shouldn't loiter after school , but we should have some freedom after school . Some students always buy lunch after school as they have no food at home. But now, as this rules states that no loitering after school , they have to be more troublesome and going home then to the mall . At Whitesands Mall , the tuition center is at the last floor , so do they also meant that , students cannot go to their tuition with their school uniform ? I dont really like the rules alot , as it is really very unreasonable . Although we shouldnt slack after school , but go home straight , i think we should have some freedoms , some rights to hang out around with friends after school . Some friends we had may not be the same school as us , or even same class , but then , if we really want to meet , we only can meet during recess or after school . Now if we cannot loiter at shopping malls , means we only can meet during recess which is very unfair ! That's all i want to say . Will add more if there's more ideas.

Week 5 Reflection 1 , Home Page 1 {02022009}

Q1) How did the teenagers trespass into Singapore Island Country Club?

} Those teenagers said that they were drunk , and went in right after they were
lost while walking in the MacRitchie Reservoir to see monkeys. After that they
lost their way to get out of the MacRitchie Reservoir & trespassed into the
Singapore Island Country Club.

Q2) Is underage drinking correct? Explain your answer.

} It is incorrect. Drinking can make us have liver cancer which is bad for
health. But now teenagers think that drinking is part of their pleasure , or
even they can forget their troubles. Sometimes, drinking may lead to a mistake
such as a underage girl becoming pregnant and the two parties will be in
trouble. Although what one of my friend claims that , a teenager or adult must
be able to hold their liquor well for meeting clients to discuss business in the
future , but must it to be so early to learn how to drink? A bottle of liquor
can cost up to $10+ , and once you're addicted to it , you will be spending your
money , or your parents hard earned money just to give you pocket money , like
how you waste water. After that , you will use finish your money very soon , and
you will be getting money from your parents. Once they give you money , they
have to work harder to get more salary or bonuses , or else their money will be
used up soon , and they have no money to give you , after that , you will
complain to your parents , starting to lend money from others , and you will be
owing others even more , maybe causing your parents not to have enough money to buy the daily necessities.
