What if dreams come true? 3B Yuen Tsz Ki, Sabrina

Hi, everyone. Today I am going to tell all of you a crazy story. Come with me and join the adventure, will you?

Juliet and I are great sisters. We are of the same kind - the outgoing type of girls. However, we don’t have much freedom. “Camping is dangerous; travelling is expensive; shopping is useless.” These ideas are like blood which circulates in our parents’ body - they just control us for no reason!

Last week, Juliet and I were stuck at home again. “It’s Chinese New Year, but both of us are stuck at this tiny apartment, what a sorrowful thing it is!” Juliet shouted. “Time flies like an arrow. We should check out the flower market and play those exciting firecrackers rather than sit right here. I wish I could have the Anywhere Door.” I cried.

Maybe you are wondering what an ‘Anywhere Door’ is, I would be very glad to tell you guys about this charming machine. If you tell the major door your dream destination, it will make sure you land at the right location.

‘What if our dream comes true?’ Juliet thought.

‘Ding Dong,’ an envelope mail appeared on the floor after we opened the door.

‘Mummy, is that yours?’

‘NO, I never order stuff from the Internet.’ My mom replied to me without any eye contact while she was washing her dishes as usual.

Both Juliet and I had some strange feeling about to explore. ‘Maybe it is our New Year gift from our cousin, open it!’ I said.

‘Oh my god, who sent us this kind of New Year gift? Close it and sent it back,’ I said.

‘Can magic be real? Let me just cast a spell.’ Juliet said so when I was closing the door.

“You mean this weird door could be the ‘Anywhere Door’? Wait, there is a card on the handle.” I told Juliet.

“It says Doraemon will make your dream come true!’ Juliet shouted with the loudest voice she had.

We opened the door together. Holding our hands, we jumped into it together.

The next moment when we opened our eyes wide, we were in a totally different place, but no longer Hong Kong. It was still an apartment but the size was doubled. Everything seemed much bigger.

Suddenly, I saw a giant coming through a huge window. Every step of the giant took was like an earthquake. ‘Wait! We’ve arrived to another world.’ Both of us shouted.

We finally got what we had always desired for, something unique, something new.

The host of the apartment was a giant who was called Nick. He was not as strong as he looked like but he was the nicest giant I knew.

Nick told us we were not in another world, but just a very far planet. Unpredictable adventures are the best thing ever for teens like us. Nick’s wife got long red hair; Juliet and I loved to swing on it. We spent ten days on the Giant Planet. Exploration was great fun, but finally we felt the unrest deep in our hearts. We knew it’s time to ask our lovely Anywhere Door for a favour again.

Then we got in the Anywhere Door. Guess what? This time we’re not heading to an alien destination, but our dear homeland. Yes, the tiny apartment! We’d never thought about the best place we wanted deeply in our heart to go, was H.O.M.E!

People get lost sometimes. It’s a great journey for us to realize how we should treasure the most precious thing we own, family. No matter where you have been, there’s somewhere you are meant to stay.

Home, the final destination of our Anywhere Door.

Memory Bread 3B Wong Wai Ying

'Doraemon! Doraemon!' A long plaintive wail emanated from me. I broke the door violently. I hugged Doraemon's leg and begged him

for memory bread because there would be an examination tomorrow and I hadn't done any revision! Doraemon took out the memory

bread and said, unwillingly, 'this is the last time that I give you this.'
         

Afterwards, I thanked him wholeheartedly. I pressed the memory bread on the textbook gently. I expected that I would get the highest

marks in the exam. After a while, I took up the memory bread and checked whether the knowledge was copied. As what I had expected,

neat and tidy sentences appeared in my sight. I had a little bite of the memory bread in carefully. I found that it tasted like sponge. It’s

tasteless! It tasted a bit strange and I couldn't describe it precisely. Then, I closed my eyes to memorize the details of exam without any

notes successfully. I had full confidence in my exam then. I believed that I would be the number 1 in the exam. However, things did not

turn out as I had wished......
         

The next day came. It was sunny but rain was on its way. The strong winds of spring became a gentle breeze. I looked out from the

window to the school and recalled the memory strenuously. Unexpectedly, a violent ache appeared from my little tummy. I cover my

tummy with my hands. I could feel sweat streaming down my face. I ran as fast as possible to the toilet. Passers-by gazed at me,

wondering what was on my mind. I was conscious about that, but I couldn't care anymore. After vomiting, my mind went back. I

couldn't memorize the details of exam!
         

 'The memory bread that I gave you was contaminated! You can't get anything without any efforts! You deserve it!' a familiar voice

spoke in my brain. I lowered my head, feeling awkward. 'I’m sorry,' I said.

Memory Bread 3B Au Hoi Hei

Memory Bread

Before the examination week,

My brain becomes extremely weak.

My desk is full of books,

And I don’t even want to have a look.

If Doraemon gave me a gadget, I would take memory bread,

That would give me a perfect rest.

Reciting the title and the author of an artwork drives me crazy,

If I had this bread, I would be happy to become lazy.

I would save time and just immerse in my favorite formula of chemical compounds,

The result of exams could still make me excited, just like getting a million pounds.

My teacher would wonder how I had prepared for the exam,

I would proudly say I’d only gone playing and shopping with my brother, Sam.
