My life in Singapore

I have already studied in Singapore for a year. I got a lot of experience there. I like local Singaporeans because they are outgoing ,it’s quite easy to make friends with them. I have a lot of Singaporean schoolmates. We help each other with everything. They always give me a hand when I get in trouble as all subjects are in English, I don’t understand well. And they are very patient. On the weekends, we often go to the internet café to play games. I hope I can keep this friendship in future.

My School

• My school is Hwa Chong International school, there are many international students from all over the world. They are from Singapore, Britain, China, Thailand, Russia and so on. I love my school very much because I have good time there everyday. I can gain a lot of knowledge there. I really enjoy it. No pressure, no problems, no worries.
