Term 1 Week 5 Assignment

  "Pitter-Patter, Pitter-Patter..." Raindrops fall like bullets from a machine gun. The howling winds shook the trees and leaves flew around like fire-flies. The sky was as dark as my father's face when my brother screwed something up. It was a raining day in Hwa Chong. The air was cool and damp. Students everywhere had mixed feelings. Some enjoyed the cooling weather while others were sad as the rain meant that they could not play sports. Meanwhile... The field had turned into a girl's nightmare. It was muddy , dirty and the earthworms had come out of the soil and were crawling everywhere. If you looked closely enough, you could see a colony of ants making their way up and down the terraces. Tiny critters of all shapes and sizes moved around, taking advantage of the cool weather to enjoy themselves. Many times we look out of the window and see a raining day, but a pity we do not see the eco-system hiding behind the greenery. But if you look closely and pay close enough attention, you can see the true beauty of our green earth.
