My Most Memorable Experience !

Two years ago my brother joined army and I was rather sad because he wasn't  there to play , bully(sometimes) and help me with my work !
In my sadness I didn't realize that a month had passed . So, one day I came back from school ,my dad asked me to sit beside him and asked me a question," Would you mind if we move to Singapore ,where your brother lives ?" . I was so happy I jumped in joy & screamed "Yes I do !" . So, a month later I was ready to come to Singapore ! While I was on the flight I looked out of the window and , I could see a tiny city disappearing from the land under .I did miss Boston , but I wanted to see a new part of the world ! In around 20h I arrived in Singapore. In excitement I just forgot about my brother ! After a while my excitement  calmed down and best of all I remembered and gave my brother a hug !

Strong earthquake rattles buildings around Japan- Google News

The recent earthquake in eastern Japan, spared the people of a lot of damages and causality. Although it was 6.6 on the Richter Scale, there were no damages. It is remarkable as to how the people of Japan have developed early warning Systems to predict earthquakes. Their buildings are earthquake proof and have helped save lives.This time they were spared as against 1995 when the Kobe earthquake at 7.2 on the Richter killed 6400 people.

Beware pickpockets at opening- Google News

Ever since I was a child, I always felt that Singapore was a safe place to live in. The warning of "Beware of Pickpockets" at the inauguration of  Universal studios came as a rude shock to me. I am unable to understand as to how law and order has become a problem in my country. With the new resorts in Singapore are we opening our society to crime? I wish that severe punishments will be given to offenders to discourage such acts. I pray for a safe Singapore.

Fewer relocating pet owners move animals - Google News

I am shocked to hear that many people are abandoning their pets in Singapore due to the economic downturn. Pets are creatures with feelings and serve their owners well. They offer company, deep affection and relaxation to their masters. By abandoning, these owners have behaved in a very selfish manner. When an animal gives it's very best to keep it's masters happy, leaving them behind in Singapore as orphans is a very great sin. Singapore Government must pass a law that owners who move must take their pets along with them to their new homes wherever it may be. Anyone abandoning pets must be punished. My prayers are with these dear pets.

Baby elephant shuffles along path to recovery- Google News

Elephants breeding in captivity helps to keep the population up. It is really nice that the Taronga Zoo in Australia is trying to breed Asian Elephants. The birth of the calf in a near dead condition was initially shocking to hear. I am so glad to note that "Mr. Shuffle" as they affectionately call the baby elephant has recovered and has a good chance of survival. I pray for his continued well being. I hope he grows up to be a strong Elephant like his mother. I congratulate the Zoo Keepers and the Veterinarians for their good work. I do wish someday Mr. Shuffle will be returned to his habitat in the wild.
