Title: Write about an time when you lost something expensive, but gained a valuable

I still remembered the time when I lost my handphone. I had forgotten to take it with me during PE lesson. When I came back, it was gone. I felt a surge of anger and sadness. Tears started to flow down my cheeks.

It was a bright sunny day, the high sunlit clouds drifted across the clear blue sky as I was getting ready for PE. I went to the toilet to change before going down to join my classmates. I brought along my wallet but forgot to bring my handphone. As the games were starting, I could not go up and take it.

After PE lesson I went up to take my handphone. To my horror, my handphone was missing! I searched my bag and table, dropping everything on the floor, but still could not find it. I was heartbroken. I sadly walked down the stairs to the canteen. Then, I saw my friend from another class using my handphone! It had the symbol that I had put on it to identify it. I decided to approach her. When I asked her where she got the handphone, she said that I had lent it to her. Then I remembered that I had lent it to her 2days before. She wanted to play the games that were in it. I learnt to help those who are in need of what I have because I am contented with what I have now.

personal recount(30 qs)

Last month I went to China with a group of friendsfor an exchange program. We went to a school and experienced what the school life in China was like. It was different from schools in Singapore. They had school hostels where the students live in, only going home on Saturday and coming back on Monday. The food there is also a little different from Singapore food. The food at the hostel is very nice. There's even a small minimart in the school. The students study from 7.30 in the morning till 8.30 at night. Other than going to the school in China, we also went to Shanghai, Suzhou and Hangzhou. We went to the shopping centres to shop for things. Some of the things there are very interesting. The things there are also cheaper than those in Singapore. I enjoy m stay there as i get to experience how life in China is like. As the things there are also cheap, I would also like to shop there again. I would want to go back to China with my friends again.
