A time I peservered and was successful

Okto Cup 2

During the December Holidays, me and my friends decided to join the second Okto Cup. We practiced the futsal court near my house and we trained very hard. The competition was as usual, very tough. There were over 600 teams competing for one thing. Victory. At first, we thought that we could not make it to the second round, but with the advice from parents' and teammates, we managed to go to the QUARTER FINALS. We were proud of ourselves as the matches were on consecutive days and we had little rest. But with the motivation of our supporters (parents, friends), we persevered and endured till the end. Although the cup wasn't ours, we were proud of ourselves for being the top eight teams in the competition. And this has been the best memory and the best memory of perseverance and hard work....

A time i persevered.

I was doing my math work, all alone at home on a sunny Sunday,the air was filled the rustling of leaves and the sounds of people carrying out their daily routines jobs, like washing the toilet,dong business with other people,or carrying loads and driving machines in the construction site.What zen, i thought.What peace, what...RING!!! What the...I picked up the phone and it was my friend Bob,somebody that had just ruined my perfect moment of zen and peace."What?""You wanna play War thunder?Just come to my house.I've got some really lovely appetizers just waiting for you in the hall,if you wanna come."Ooh, that was  tempting......NOT.I  realised that i needed to do my homework,and achieve my childhood dream:To finish my work in a staggering 30 minutes.Looking at what i have done for the past 10 minutes, It wasn't much.In fact, i had just finished the first question of my math revision paper. Ha ha. Thus, i turned down the offer, feeling the utmost regret.:( However, i persevered to continue doing my homework,not stopping to think of the lovely cakes and frankfurters waiting in Bob's house.In the end, i succeeded, i had achieved my childhood dream.But, i lost a friend, Bobby Reece.:(

A Time I Persevered And Was Successful

I was primary 4 and I was having my CA2 very soon. I was also in an Intra-School Media Competition and thus had to balance revision, work and staying back to complete my animations. When it was week 6, the exams had arrived and I was almost done with the animation and had to do the finishing touches. Suddenly, my computer crashed and I lost all my files. I would have a thumb drive, but I did not think I would need one as the school's computers were quite safe and I would doubt any viruses would corrupt my files at all. I made a huge mistake. Instead of the files corrupting, the whole computer crashed. I only had 3 weeks left to finish the animation. I saved as many files as possible and redrew everything that I needed to. Week 8, there was still so much to be done. I really wanted to give up. However, with the help of my instructors and my seniors, I persevered and I did it - I succeeded and finished the animation! I ended up winning second in the competition and I was really proud of myself. 

Assignment: A Time I Persevered & Gained Success

There was a time when I persevered in my 800m run during the Track & Field event. I had sprinted my entire first lap and was left panting non-stop as I began my 2nd lap. Despite being first with a huge distance in front of the competitor in 2nd place, I soon found myself competing head-to-head as he gradually caught up with me. 

I was struggling, but I had the mentality to carry on because I did not want to lose the lead. I continued jogging to keep my momentum, and when the time was right, I pushed myself and sprinted away from my close competitor. I dashed towards the finishing line, leaving him chasing my shadows. 

I had won the race. This was all thanks to that fighting spirit I had in me, which urged me to persevere, and in the end, I reaped the fruits of my labour. 

A Time I Persevered And Was Successful

This year, my CCA, Show Choir, decided to participate in the Singapore Youth Festival competition. The CCA only had three months to prepare our performance. For the secondary one students, including me, it was a daunting task as most of us had not participated in the SYF competition before. Thus, we decided to put our heart and soul into practicing so that our performance will be our best effort. Instead of two times a week, our practices increased to three times a week. We all practiced diligently. The secondary ones decided to practice during recess, for at least ten minutes each day. On the day itself, we all strived to perform the best we could. In the end, we achieved a Certificate of Accomplishment. Although it was not the Distinction we were all hoping for, I am still proud of our result.

A Time I Persevered And Was Successful

After the PSLE Exams, my primary school hosted an Inter-Class Games.  I participated in Football which was one of the shortlisted sports. I trained with my 5 men team. We trained everyday at the nearest basketball court. I was playing in the Midfielder position.  In the semi-finals, we got a free kick. I took up the challenge and decided to take the free kick. I took some steps back. The whistle blew and I kicked the ball. It curled into the top left hand corner of the goal. Till this day, I remember the amazing feeling of scoring for my team.

Homework: A Time I Persevered And Was Successful

               A time when I persevered so hard and I achieved my dream

Last time in Primary School, there would be a book sale every May and September of school. That time, I was in Primary 5 and I went to the book sale in May. I was bubbling with excitement and hopped around like a crazy march hare as I was an avid reader. I saw many interesting books, such as Sherlock Homes that I desperately wanted  to buy. However, I soon realised that I did not have enough money. So, I started saving up my pocket money and stopped spending on stationary or sweet drinks or snacks anymore. This caused me much distress and I would groan and felt like falling dead right at that moment when I saw people eating snacks. But, I did not give up. Finally, September came and I had enough money to buy the few books I wanted! I felt as if I could dance my way from Singapore to Rome and back when I received the books from the person running the book sale.
