Would I live in Ancient Greece

Well ........the answer is more or less a yes and a no.I might have complete freedom in Greece thousands of years ago.I have complete control over my property and other stuff.It would have be great to see all those temples or even when they are still under construction we can see enter the temples and buildings that have never been seen before but were eventually destroyed over the years.I could see the bronze statue of Alexandre The Great which was destroy by an earthquake or even for all you know meet the ruler of Greece while he his parading in the streets.I can also learn about the method of learning in Greece.It would have been fantastic.However,children in our generation cann ot imagine a place without electricity and other modern stuff.Hence there comes the no.But if I ever get the chance to travel back in time and visit Ancient Greece I would defenitely accept the offer.

Breaking news 2:King of Pop Dead

Last week the world lost its best ever pop singer,Michael Jackson.Michael was at the age of 50 when he died in Los Angeles home on Thursday afternoon,25 June 2009.The cause of death is still unknown but family members say that Michael Jackson suffered a heart attack and collapsed.He never regained consciousness.People say that MJ could have died of an overdose of pain killers.I think MJ was too stressed out because of the rehearsals 50 concerts he was going to perform next month.I was really looking forward to his comeback gig.I,being a fan of Michael Jackson, was devastated when I first came to know about the King of pop's death.I liked the album Thriller which is currently the all time best-selling album.MJ is not only remembered for his great music but also for his theme park, Neverland.MJ was actually a black American but he suffered a disease which turned his skin white in colour.Then he went for plastic surgery which some people say could have killed him.Still there are many unanswered questions surrounding Michael Jackson's death but I end this post with this short message:R.I.P Michael Jackson,King of Pop.

Father's Day

So, maybe my holidays are not totally ruined.For Father's Day, my father brought the whole family to Sentosa.There,there was massive construction going on for The Resort's World which will be opening in 2010.It has the Universal Studios,Asia's largest marine park in which there could be a whale shark.I just cannot wait for it to open.One roller -coaster ride was completed and it actually appeared in National Geographic for the top ten most exhilarating rides ever built.The Resort's World actually takes up a quarter of Sentosa island.Well, besides this it is the normal Sentosa except for the Segway and Luge.The Segway is actually something like a skates-scooter but electronically controlled.It is not that easy as you have to lean forward for it to move forward and pull it to brake.The course is made up of several hairpin turns.I could clear those turns but I accelerated too much and the machine jumped and stalled while I fell down suffering a cut on my palm.For this simple ride I got hurt hence I expected more cuts and bruises in the luge ride.However,I came out without even the slightest of cuts.I zoomed down the track and cut the corners with out listening to the people on guards' advice.Then I went to the wax museum which was then renamed Images of Singapore.All the figures were life-like and there was set of Chinatown and other historic places.It was really as though that I was in the real place.Next I went to the Tiger Sky Tower. from 50 stories high I could see the whole of the Singapore skyline.The view was so breath-taking.Then I went to the 4D magix.It is a show in 3-D and there are special effects like when someone falls into the water you will be splashed with water.It was really amazing.Then,I went on a 3-d simulation ride like the one in Science Centre.At last I went to the Songs of the Sea.It a musical near the sea.i think the show was OK.The special effects was good but the storyline was horrible.Altogether that day was the best day of my holidays.

H1N1

Ah!!!! It's everywhere!!!!People are quarantined and are helpless as this Influenza A (H1N1)takes over the world!!!I think I am exaggerating too much.However, it is true that H1N1 is literally taking over the world.Almost every country in this planet has this virus.Even a puny country like Singapore has 1000 over confirmed cases of H1N1 as of incuding one death!Australia has 2000 over cases nationwide and there are about 150 deaths all over the world including the first in Europe the place where I was supposed to go.The main threat now is that a German man who had this virus went around Singapore socialising.Now people all over Singapore could be infected!So now I am now officially not going out anywhere(just kidding).So H1N1 is now the second SARS.Hence I advice you to actually listen to peopple when they talk about washing your hands.

My holidays so far

Since I cannot go overseas I am stuck home playing on my computer for at the most two hours a day.During these two hours I try to download games into my computer.One of these games are Midtown Madness 2.Although, this game is quite old it is still good to play it.In this game you do nothing but crash anything you and create chaos.You can choose two cities:San Fransisco and London.In London the awesome thing is that we can drive through the subway and get rammed by the train.You can attract the cops and bring them into the subway and get them rammed by the train.In Sans Fransisco you drive along the Golden Gate Bridge.And there you can fall into the river as there are not barriers.When, you have cops on your tail you can just drive into the river and the cops will follow you.The is quite hilarious when you do that.So, try playing this game.

Breaking news!!!!

Cristiano Ronaldo and kaka have moved to Real Madrid for a total price tag of $200 million.This seems to be nothing for real as they are still looking for more.I think this is unbelievable as i believe that each major club has at least one superstar.Not almost all of them in one team.Like I said this is just unbelievable.

My trip cancelled

No!!! My trip to Europe is cancelled!!!First of all there is the H1N1 virus which Singapore already has 40 cases of it and the whole family is afraid of getting this virus.Then, there is my brother who is in Secondary Four right now has a lot of assignments to do and he said it would take up the whole of the holidays.So, practically my whole holidays is ruined.I am stuck here doing nothing but studying and blogging and I am bored to tears.My father wants to bring me around special places in Singapore like Sentosa and to the unfinished IR.I have already visited those places so I am still bored.My father is planning to bring me to Krabi island during the last week of the holidays.

Monster vs Aliens

For the past two weeks a had nothing to do and I finished all of my homework except the blogging of course so i decided to hit the cinemas and watch Monster vs Aliens.The movie was just hilarious. I could not stop laughing.Professor Cockroach was actually a scientist but an experiment gone wrong turned him into a cockroach.Insectivorous is actually a giant mutated grub which I say is quite cute especially the parts when it gets attracted to light.Well Insectivorous was actually an ordinary grub when a nuclear explosion turned it into a monster. Then there is Link which is an ordinary sea monster which is quite vain.And the funniest of monsters is BOB.BOB is actually a glob which does not even have any bones and apparently no brain.It is the monster that brings the main humour to the story.Last but not the least is Susan aka Ginormica was hit by a meteorite and turned into giantess. These monsters team up to destroy the aliens which have come to Earth. You should all watch the movie to find out the end. I also watched Terminator:Salvation which I saw is not too bad but I did not really understand anything. Then I also watched Night at the Museum 2 which was also quite hilarious.However,among the three Monster vs Aliens is the best.

My favourite place

Well.. it is quite hard to decide what is my favourite place. I have been to many countries and all of them were brilliant. There is the Ayers rock in Australia which is the world's largest lone rock and there is Tioman island in Malaysia were I went snorkeling when I was young and there is Beijing and even the pyramids of Giza but I think my favourite place is the Rockies in Canada. I went there about two years ago during the June holidays. I went to Vancouver in British Columbia and stayed there for about a week. Then my father rented a car and drove for about one thousand kilometres to Banff. There was were I saw the Rockies.The Rockies is actually a series of snow-capped mountains that run down the backbone of North America. It was such a breath-taking sight. I also saw a lot of wildlife including several Grizzly and Black bears and even a coyote. It was really wonderful. It was also Spring time so the weather was pleasant.The experience was so exciting that my family got a PR there.I really hope I could go there again.So this is why the Rockies is my most favourite place.
