Amanda Hi Lexi! Actually it isn't that they hate you, they're just jealous (in my opinion). If you have high marks and they lower, some people will get jealous. But so far I haven't gotten bullied at any of my schools (I changed school this year) 11-08-2011 at 06:24 PM ·
Lexi Hi ! Just joining the conversation =) Here in France, good students get bullied a lot more than the bad ones.. it's kind of weird, actually. You have to fit into the gropu medium marks or people will start hating you ! =/ 11-07-2011 at 04:37 PM ·
Amanda God. It sounds kinda good for people who hate studying (I'm not such a big fan of studying either) but not so for people who love studying. I'm not sure if I like that or not... 10-31-2011 at 03:07 PM ·
fufu haha it's ironic because in my country we are the complete opposite of the "wants to get 1st" kind. Students that achieve big at school and at work are actually ridiculed in Puerto Rico by most and what's "socially accepted" is not studying and failing grades. Not kidding. O_O I don't agree with this but that's how things are over here. 10-30-2011 at 10:47 AM ·
Amanda Seasons: none
Education: I'm not sure about the education above primary school, some people can do 3yr secondary, some 4. Depends, I guess
Food: a lot of local stuff, I'm (again) not very sure, I just eat what my parents give me
People: Always depicted as very competitive, "want-to-get-1st" kind, and rush-rush type. In my opinion quite true.
Environment: Usually known by foreigners as a clean and green city with a lot of plants...like a city in a garden or vice versa, I forgot. My opinion - not very clean, a lot of people smoke and litter, etc. 10-16-2011 at 11:07 AM ·
fufu Not sure myself O.O Hmm like how are the people over there, is everything rural or urban, what food do you guys eat, the seasons, education?? In Puerto Rico everything looks like camp and only our capital San Juan and it's surroundings look a bit like the USA but with more mountains and less space. Some people say Puerto Rico is full of gangsters but that's just exaggerating.Most of the population is based on normal everyday people working to maintain their family and we love jokes, to be respected and hate the violence in our island. Puerto Ricans like any other country love fast foods but we also love our typical foods. Some examples include:"Alcapurrias, domplines, Rice and meat, mofongo, rice pudding, arroz con gandules, coquito, pasteles, etc.We always have a tropical climate (I've never seen snow in my entire life) and our education lasts since we are 4 years old till we are 18. 1 year head start, 1 year kindergarden, 6 years elementary school, 3 years middle school and 3 years high school. After that is university like other countries but the options available aren't that rich and varied. 10-16-2011 at 01:21 AM ·
Amanda Hi fufu! Well, fine. I'll message you the urls. Life in SG is cool (Anyway how am I supposed to answer that properly o.O) 10-14-2011 at 07:12 PM ·
fufu Hi Amanda!! All of your posts inspire me and I wish you the best in this world. If possible can you message me your facebook, twitter and website urls? If it's private I can tell you my e-mail if you want. I'd really love to check them out even if they are still in progress. By the way how's life at Singapore? I at least know it's by far different than Puerto Rico. (My country.) O.O 10-13-2011 at 01:08 PM ·
Amanda It's English. And although I'm kinda smart (not boasting, but to be truthful I'm top 1-2% in the whole country), I'm definitely no genius. There's always room for improvement.
Oh, and my Chinese sucks. 10-09-2011 at 10:51 PM ·
elezhara Hi Amanda! I was just wondering and I know it has nothing to do with PE but, what is the official language in Singapore? I always thought it was Chinese, but seeing that you´re only 10 years old and your English is perfect, maybe I´m mistaken... or maybe you´re a genius 10-09-2011 at 10:48 PM ·
