1 Corinthians 13: 1 & 13

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Letter to a friend about a Christmas party at school (1C Au Yeung Kai Tik)

Dear Angie,

How are you? I’m fine. Hope you are having a relaxing holiday too! Merry Christmas!
 
I am so jealous of you! You had such a wonderful feast with your family! Also, you got a Gunalam model at your school X’mas party! Gunadam has become my favourite cartoon character since I was a child! I want to get it too!

Luckily, my christmas activities were as great as yours too! I think it was the most intersting Christmas ever! On 21st December, I had a Christmas party at school with my classmates. We had a finger food party first. My classmates brought so much finger food that we couldn’t finish them at all! For example, we had potato chips, cookies, cakes and others. I didn’t think it was worse than a banquet in an enormous and famous restaurant which we may get lost!

After having such a marvelbous finger food party, we packed up and prepared for our next acitivity. Can you guess what the next acitivity was? It was decorating our classroom! My classmate, John, suggested using recycled paper to decorate our classroom. Without any problem, everybody agreed. I think it was because our teacher Mr. Chan had told us we should protest the Earth. We folded some recycled paper into beautiful shapes such as flowers and trees. Also, we drew some “master pieces” on our blackboard. After finishing all the works, we were so tored that we looked like we hadn’t eaten food for three months! But when we were looking at our decorated classroom, we were so happy that we all jumped up and hugged together!

Since everyone was so tired, even Ken, who was always full of energy, was exhausted, we decided we should finish the finger food we left. Everyone dashed out and took the food fiercely, but then after they were full, they were friendly again! What a strange scene?

Next, we played games like pass-the-parcel and musical chairs. The most interesting thing was, when we were playing musical chairs, the fattest boy in our class Ken won easily. He just looked like a giant and then pushed away other classmates. The “victims” could be pushed for about three miles! It was impossible! Everybody was laughing when Ken started to “hurt” his classmates everytime. But then in the end, Ken got the chair easily and he sat on it excitedly. Suddenly, a sound “crack!” was heard, the chair was broken! Ken fell down and shouted “Ouch!” Everybody laughed loudly even the people in the USA could hear it.

I won’t foget the happy memories on 21st of December. I’m looking forward to having the party next year. Also, the new year is approahing! Happy New Year! I will wait for your letter next year!

Cheers,

Jacky
