dear diary
I feel that I do not love Mary anymore,I have fell in love with another woman.I think I should tell Mary that I do not love her anymore and want a divorce.I hope that she does not get to agitated as she is a sensitive person.Maybe I should tell her the news after work today.I hope that Mary would be able to find another man that she loves after our divorce.

picking up litter at changi beach

Yesterday my classmates and I went to changi beach to pick up litter.The main purpose for this event was to keep the environment clean.As changi beach was very far away from school,I slept on the bus.When we reached there,I realized that changi beach was much cleaner than sembawang beach which we had gone to last Saturday.I teamed up with my prievous partner and started to pick up litter.After walking along the beach and picking up litter,our trashbag had only a few pieces of sweet wrappers,cigarettes buds and plastic bags.this showed that at least Singapore is making an effort to throw their rubbish into the dustbins.

cross country on wednesday

Yesterday I ran the cross country race which was organised by our school council.Our principal told us that the school was not able to hold this cross country race last year due to H1N1.I think that this was a privilege as the secondary 4 students last year were not able to experience this run.We were given number tags before the race.The secondary 1 went first so as to prevent overcrowding.I felt great during the run as the whole school was running with us.I ran as fast as I could but eventually became tired.Despite that,I still continued to jog to the finishing line.I think that this is an achievement as I have never completed a run of 3km before.

picking up rubbish at sembawang beach

Our teachers brought 1P4 and 1P3 to sembawang beach to pick up litter.At first,I thought that this would be an easy job but when we reached there,I couldn't believe my eyes!There was litter everywhere,on grasses,in drains,on the beach and there was even a car tire!To make the event more exciting,our seniors made us compete against the other class to see which class could pick up the most litter.We were asked by our form teachers to split into twos so that it would be easier.I teamed up with a friend and started to pick up litter.We went to the beach first to pick up litter.After scanning the whole beach,we our trash bag was already one quater full.Then we went to the drain to continue to pick up litter.The drain had the most litter in it,it was horrifying to see the number of rubbish people have littered.Even though we lost the competition,we still had fun!!
