Entry 3: pet

I have a hamster called Princess. She is very cute but fierce and she likes bitting people! Once she bit my friend Samantha on the finger and her finger bled. When I heard about it, I scolded ," Naughty Princess !"( but of course she could not understand).

Princess also likes to shed tissue papers and make them into her soft and comfy bed. Princess is by nature very clean. She likes to pee in the same corner all the time. We always give Princess a small paper box. She keeps scratching it and she will pull the shedded tissue into the small box. When she does that, it looks like she's moving house. Princess is also very greedy. She likes to store food in her cheek pouches then she brings the food to the box and empties the food from her cheek pouches.

Princess likes to excercise too. She excercises by running on a wheel and scratching on a disgarded toilet roll. Sometimes, my mother and I would put her in a plastic ball and bring her to the lobby so that she would be able to run around freely without us trying to catch her.

One day, my mother's friend came with two adorable puppies which she wanted to sell. When Princess came out of her box, she got a shock of her life. She immediately ran back into her box and never came out again until the dogs went home.

One morning, we couldn't find her. We thought she escaped but she did not. She was actually under her wheel which fell over her. She tried her best to get out of it but all she could do was to go through the floor which was a grill. Her body went through the grill but her big head got stuck! My parents used a plier to cut away the grill so that she would not suffocate. After this incident, we decided to put her in another cage.

I find that having a hamster is a bit troublesome but I'm still glad to have a funny little hamster like Princess!

Entry 2: My December holidays

Taken from my computer

During my December holidays, I went to Hong Kong Disneyland with my friend Laura and her family. My Grandmother and her grandparents tagged along too. We stayed there for five days at Disneyland Hotel.

In Disneyland, I enjoyed many rides like the Autopier and Astroblast in Tomorrowland. The most enjoyable ride was Space mountain, a rollercoaster ride. I liked it so much that I went on it four times with my friends without any parent supervision.

We also explored other parts of Hong Kong like Mongkok where we visited the Ladies Market and Maritime Square in Tsing Yi where we ate very delicious dim sum (even better than Singapore's). At Causeway Bay I met up with Samantha, my primary one and two classmate. She is a Hong Kong citizen and she goes back to Hong Kong every school holiday.

Besides Disneyland, we also went to another Theme Park called Ocean Park. I feel that Ocean Park is better than Disneyland because of the fantastic rides and games there. My most favourite rides are the Viking , the Eagle and the Merry-Go-Round Swing (actually I don't really know the accurate name for the Merry-Go-Round Swing).

I really miss Hong Kong !

Entry 1: blog netiquette

Blog netiquette is about being polite when you are posting emails to others like your friends and family or even to the public. Typing out slang language is not acceptable while posting or emailing.

Netiquette is simply manners for internet use - the proper way to behave when you're communicating on the computer. Written communication does not convey the same expression as face-to-face communication, so we must have some standardized conventions for politeness. In the workplace, the rapport we have with others is important. The tone of a message will build it or destroy it. We must use netiquette to build/maintain rapport.
Netiquette instruction should begin with education. Students are being taught courtesy on the Internet that they can understand - showing respect to be respected.
