Sung-Yow has a secret. He could paint a picture and
make it come alive! This only happened when the painting was finished. Sung-Yow
loved to paint dragons. He left out their eyes because he didn’t want them to
come alive. In this way his secret stayed a secret.
The
king heard that Sung-Yow was good at painting dragons. He asked Sung-Yow to
paint four dragons on a wall. In three days the painting was almost
finished. The dragons looked like they could jump off the wall. They didn’t
jump because Sung-Yow had left out their eyes.

came from far away to see the paintings.

away,” said Sung-Yow.

laughed. No one believed him. Sung-Yow was not happy. This time he would NOT
leave out the eyes. He painted little black dots on two of the dragons.

Last
autumn I was in India during Diwali, the “Festival of Lights” which takes place
every year to celebrate the victory of good over evil. This festival lasts for
five days and is held at the end of October or in the first week of November.
Preparations
began weeks before the event. People cleaned their homes and painted wonderful
designs called rangolis on the walls and floors. They bought beautiful new
clothes and jewelry to wear during the festival. Women made delicious sweets
which were better than any others I have ever tasted.
During
the five days of Diwali, every home and temple was decorated, inside and
outside, with lovely clay lamps and colorful candles. After dark, the whole
neighborhood glittered with thousands of tiny lights, as though in a fairy
tale. Excited children set off firecrackers, and at first I was frightened by
the loud bangs, but the spectacular display was so fascinating that I soon
joined in the spirit of celebration.
Diwali
is a deeply moving festival. I am very grateful I had the chance to share in
this celebration of peace and harmony. I have fond memories of the experience,
and in particular I will never forget how friendly and generous people were.

Rafflesia
can be found in the forests of Malaysia, Southern Thailand, Sumatra and Java.
But, Rafflesia flowers are fairly hard to locate. It is especially difficult to
see them in bloom. Its buds take up to 10 months to develop while its blossom
lasts for just a few days.
Rafflesia
has brownish, scale like leaves and fleshy, smelling flowers of various sizes,
from few inches to meter big in diameter. We usually notice its large fleshy flowers. There is a deep well
in the center of the flowers. The sexual organs are located beneath the rim of
the disk. Male and female flowers are separate.
The
reddish brown colors of the petals, sprinkled with white freckles produce
unpleasant stench, similar to rotting flesh. This would attract flies and
insects which help disperse the seeds. Rafflesia is parasite, which means it takes the nutrient out

Cooking and microorganisms
(We learnt that
yeast is a fungus and that it is a microorganism)
Today we made
Pita bread. We used yeast and flour to make it. We made the dough and then
needed to knead it until it’s smooth and flat. I molded and made it
