Dear Edgar,

                How are you? How is your preparation for your upcoming examination? Do not worry too much, I have had the same experience too. Let me share with you some useful tips to handle such pressure.

                First of all, time management is an important aspect in everything we do. One of the ways to manage time properly is to prepare a daily and weekly time table. Allocate appropriate amount of time for studies, exercises and relaxations.

                Next, the important tip is to stick to your time table. This means that you must not procrastinate. If you do, you will end up piling up your works and become stressed.

                Other than that, I would advise you to form group studies. This way, you can learn hand in hand with your friends through discussions and brainstorming. When examination is around the corner, focus more of your time on revision. However, continue to have your exercise and enough rest because all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

                I believe you can follow these simple suggestions. I am sure you will do well in your examinations. Until next time, bye!

Love,

Your name,

Accident

      It was a breezy Saturday morning. I was taking a walk to make a stop at my favourite Mr Raju’s ‘nasi lemak’ stall before heading to an extra class. I was in a cloud nine after receiving my food to fuel the day. As I was getting my change, the sound of a loud brake screeching and a bang were vibrating through the air. I almost dropped my change from the astonishment. There was an accident happened just a few meters away from the stall!

     Within minutes, onlookers were already crowding the place of the event. I also joined to witness the unfortunate scene. I saw a guy in his brand new car took a huge hit on the back of a school bus. Mr Raju quickly made a call to the authorities while the other guys were trying to rescue the unconscious man in the car. Due to the terrible crumple of the black Sedan, they were not able to take him out. People were getting scared as the smoke of the car was getting thicker and thicker. We were warned to stand afar.

    Luckily, the firefighters arrived along with the ambulance. As fast as lightning, the heroic firemen used multiple tools to get the poor guy out and quickly put him on a stretcher. He was then sent to the hospital. Policemen also arrived to secure and jot details of the scene. Investigations were done and it turns out, the guy was unconscious due to non stop working at night. He rushed home to see his family yet he couldn’t make it. Thankfully he is now safe and sound in the hospital and there were no one in the school bus except the driver since it was a Saturday! The driver was also fine and the bus was able to claim the insurance. After awhile, the crowds dispersed and I continued my journey to my extra class feeling a bit gloomy.

    Accidents like this could be avoided if we take safety precautions seriously. Drivers should not be driving if they feel like their eyes are as heavy as a stone. They should take a rest at the nearest stop before hitting the road again. With this, accidents will not happen and everyone will reach their destination unharmed.

A Holiday in Cameron Highlands

During last weekend, my parents decided to take us to Cameron Highlands. In the morning, we packed our clothes and loaded them into my father's car. We hit the road at 7 a.m. in my father's Suzuki Swift.

    The road to Cameron Highlands was crooked and my mother was a bit lightheaded. The road was filled with fog.  The scenery along the road was eye pleasing. We chit-chatted along the way. After a five hours drive, we arrived at our destination. Cameron Highland has cool mountain air. Although our country is facing haze problem now, the air there was still free from pollution. It is a form escapism from all the hustle and bustle of the city life - translating into another dimension of peace and serenity.

     First, we visited to the bee farm. We could see bees flying freely and pollinating. We could purchased some pure honey and honey products sold there. At first, I was scared to see the bees flying freely as I thought it would sting us but soon I realised that they wouldn't sting us if we didn't disturb them. Then, we moved to our second location.

     Our second location was the Boh Tea Plantation.  The teas were planted on terraced hill slopes. We also did not miss the chance to take some screenshots there.We also saw a waterfall there. The sound of water cascading from the top of the mountain was soothing to our ears and nerves. We were mesmerised by the crystal clear water. Our warm bodies chilled when the cold mountain water caressed our body. As we were enjoying the waterfall, it started to rain and we dashed to find a spot to take shelter.

     After the heavy downpour, we decided to stop at one of the many strawberry parks in Cameron Highlands. Before leaving the tea plantation, we made sure to buy some fresh tea. We decided to visit the Big Red Strawberry Farm. A lot of strawberries were cultivated there. Salad and lettuce plants are also planted there. We had our tea time there. We bought some strawberries and souvenirs to take back home.

    As the sun slowly set under the horizon, we knew it was time to say goodbye to this awesome place. We had a whale of a time in Cameron Highlands and we truly enjoyed ourselves
