Today we had history for our first period and we had three groups, one on William Farquahar, the other on John Crawfurd and finally Lee Kuan Yew. It was a rather fun presentation and discussion.
Each group including my group, on Sir stamford Raffles, had to argue about how was the real founder of Singapore. Jame's group argued that William had contributed the most in the development of Singapore. While Yong Ming's group argued that John was the one who made the whole Singapore a British possesion and thus founded the whole of Singapore. Then, the group doing on Lee Kuan Yew argued that he founded Independent Singapore while other groups were argueing about who founded colonial Singapore.
My group, defined the meaning of founder and argued that Raffles,played by me, is the one who signed the formal treaty that allowed him to start a settlement in Singapore. (If I had to say the truth, I would say that all groups did quite well and out of them all, my group stood out the most.)
Today we also had an English Composition and many of us said that it was tough. I found it not that tough nor that easy. I hope that we all will do well.
Well, that is what mainly happened today.
