小「星」願,大動力 吳玫萱
彈指間,泰北志工服務已經進入了倒數階段,內心的感受可說是悲喜交雜,難過的是我們即將要向這一張張天真活潑的小臉說再見,為這段巧妙的緣分畫上句點;而喜的是不必再以大聲公來對抗這群精力充沛的小孩,還有完成了一件對我而言最重要的事─教小朋友刷牙。

Broader Perspectives Joyan
‘Broader Perspectives’ is the name of a news magazine I read regularly back in Singapore. It aims to provide readers with broader perspectives by equipping them with a better knowledge of what goes on in all the different corners of the world. I like the magazine as it presents the information in both an interesting and refreshing way.
A Day to Remember
The title of this piece of writing – ‘A Day to Remember’, eerily reminds me of those compositions we would write in Primary School. In those days, we would write a narrative piece narrating what had happened on that particular day and why it was to be remembered. I used to hate writing such compositions.
珍惜,是今天的第一課 唐詩
6/19星期六的早晨,一樣的鳥叫聲,吵醒了我們12個女生的房間。又是加滿糖水的豆漿,以及熱騰騰的豆沙包。這是這一天一開始的體力來源,雖然這一天在我心中早已是烏煙瘴氣。
Today marks the seventh day of our trip to Thailand and I am glad to say that all is wellJ Being my first ‘school trip’ without my parents, this is indeed a totally new experience and in these few days, I have realized how much I used to depend on my parents. Without my parents with me, there is this sense of responsibility and this knowing that no one will help me clean up my mess if anything goes wrong. Fortunately, nothing has gone horribly wrong yet but in fact, these few days have been very fulfilling and enjoyable.
