    Everybody was seated down in the hall, waiting for the Teacher's Day concert to start . The teachers were all very excited and were chatting non-stop.
    Janice walked stiffly in her dance costume to backstage. She was going to perform a dance with her friend, Lucinda. They had practised their dance for two months and they were very nervous. Lucinda claimed that she was feeling butterflies in her stomach.
    The 'hostess' of the concert, Lizzy, quietened everybody down. "Please keep your voices down. For our very first item, we will be having a dance. Please welcome Janice Taylor and Lucinda Wong from class 5C."
    Janice whispered to Lucinda, 'Good luck!" Lucinda nodded. They leapt onto the stage as soon as they heard the music. They cartwheeled gracefully and did amazing stunts like doing a somersault. Everybody applauded loudly. As the beat of the music changed, they leapt into the air and cartwheeled again. Lucinda cartwheeled a split second too late and accidentally knocked Janice down. Everyone fell silent. The two girls sat down on the stage , massaging the agonizing bump on thier heads. Many students pointed at them and started laughing. Some of the boys wolf-whistled and even the teachers started to laugh too. This was too much for Janice. She fought back her tears but to no avail. Hot, angry tears flowed down her cheeks.
    Janice glared at Lucinda. ''Think of an idea to get us out of this mess for you caused it!''Lucinda nodded her head and Janice saw a grin play about her lips and she knew something funny was about to happen. Lucinda stood up.
    ''Let's hope you've enjoyed our show.You must have had a good laugh! Happy Teacher's Day to all teachers.'' Lucinda said politely. With that, she bowed, pulled Janice's hand and walked off, leaving the audience of eight hundred stunned. Everyone started to clap.
    Outside, Janice smiled at Lucinda. ''Thanks!'' Lucinda smiled.''That's what friends are for.''

    The sun rose in a pool of crimson and gold, spilling light all over the land and the white clouds. The birds, having awoken, chirped merrily to signal the start of the day. I woke up at seven, rather excited, for my friends Jessie and Lisa would be going with me to Changi Beach for the day.
    After breakfast, I had a shower and slipped on my clothes. I got already a bag of chocolates and boiled sweets and waited for my friends to come. Lisa arrived promptly at eight thirty, carrying a box of cookies with her. She came into my bedroom while waiting for Jessie, talking nineteen to the dozen . We chatted gaily, and soon forgot about the time.
    ''Girls?''Mum put her head round my door. ''Are you two staying for lunch?It's almost twelve." I looked at her."You mean, we've chatted for hours? Where's Jessie? Did she come?"
    ''There was no sign of Jessie. In fact, no one came since Jessie arrived.''Mum replied to me.
    Just then, I felt Lisa poking my back.I turned to face her.''Yes?''
    ''Do you think something has cropped up at home?I mean Jessie." Lisa looked rather anxious."Shall we call her?"
    I nodded and started dialling Jessie's number. A lady answered at the end of the line. "May I know who are you? I'm Jessie's Mother."
    ''Hi,I'm Callie,Jessie's friend.We have planned to meet today at my house to go to the beach." i paused. "has something cropped up?"
    "dear, haven't you heard? my daughter fractured her right leg few weeks ago and she was admitted at Changi General Hospital." Mrs Tang replied. I felt my stomach contact. "is she recuperating at home? if not, can we go visit her?"
    "she's not home. and of course you can visit her. sorry to have caused you so much trouble. Goodbye." she hung up, the phone. i turned to Lisa, who was sobbing bitterly. "she would be alright. it was spotted in time. come, we'll go visit her now."
    when we reached the hospital, we asked for Jessie's ward and directions for it. a kind nurse took us as she was on the way there too. i heard from her that Jessie was about to attend to Jessie as well. That consoled Lisa fairly well, and she stopped sobbing.
    Jessie's ward was on the third story so we had to go quite a long way. we reached the ward in ten minutes. the nurse opened the door. Lisa and I rushed to Jessie as soon as we saw her.
    "Hello, Jessie. Are you alright now? I asked anxiously.
    " i was scared stiff when I heard about the news!" Lisa agreed. "Here, I've got a box of cookies for you. And some boiled sweets that Callie contributed."
    "thank you, " Lisa was smiling at us as she placed the snacks on the table."it was good of you to come. i missed you terribly, Lisa. And you too, Callie." Her eyes shone brightly.
    The nurse that took us up came over with some food for Jessie. Jessie told us that she was her Auntie Janet who worked at Changi General Hospital. While Jessie was eating, we all talked and talked. Lisa told us some jokes and I " contributed" some riddles to cheer Jessie up. When we were about to leave, Jessie was about to cry. But we consoled her. When we were leaving the ward, we saw many patients that were really in bad condition. Nurse Janet told us that they had just been admitted or transferred from another ward. Before that , the ward was rather empty except for Jessie.
    A Doctor was giving a man his medicine and a nurse was assisting him. he was from the stroke unit and was about to be discharged soon. Nurse Janet told us that he had suffered a stroke some time ago, and his medication taken right now was Wafarin .
    A man with his whole head bandaged was in a wheelchair, with a young man assisting him. another man was limping towards ad elderly man reading a newspaper, with the help of crutches. He also had his head bandaged up and his feet plastered. they were involved with the same accident. Another nurse was speaking to a teenage boy, saying that he could be discharged that very day. we felt very very happy for him.
    Suddenly, Nurse Janet turned to us. "Do you smell something?"
    "no, except for ointment medication and antiseptic. " I answered.
    That's right, " Nurse Janet nodded. " to be a doctor, you have to know more than this. So if you want to be a doctor, you have to study hard."
    Lisa and I nodded.
    Two days later, Jessie was discharged. Lisa and I went to see her off. We saw Mrs Tan thanking the doctors and nurses for looking after Jessie. I thought, it would be nice being a doctor and be able to save lives. " I would be a doctor when i grow up!" I made up my mind to study hard, enter medical school and become a doctor!
