-Gabriel's autobiography-

I am Gabriel and I was born in glaneagles hospital. When I was small, I always crawled around the house and mother always swing me round and round. When I was 10 months old, I learned to walk. When I was 2 years old, I learned to talk English. 2 and a half years old, I learnt to ride the tricycle.

When I was 3 years old, we moved our house from Chua Chu Kang to Jurong, near my granparents' house. Soon, I went to nursery. After a year or so, I learnt to speak my first chinese word.

One day, Father and Mother brought me to Pasir Ris to take a stroll. There, I saw People riding bicycles and asked Father how did they do it.After a year.I was 5 then. We went to the park and Father thought how to cycle. After many failures, I finally did it.

When I was 6, I got to sit in an aeroplane. I loved looking out of the window and see the clouds move by. When we landed, my ears hurt due to the presure.

Finally, I was 7 years old. I was primary 1 and had to go to school. When it was reccess time. A primary 6 student helpes me to buy food. After a few days, I learnt to be independant and bought food by myself.I had also started Weiqi(A chess-like game). This year is also the year where I first hosted my birthday party.

After 3 years, Primary 4 by then. My parents told me that I need a sport. I tried out for tabble tennis and soccer but they did not work out. At last, I tried badminton and I realised that I had talent in thet sport. In order to get into the school team, I took up courses to boost my skills and before I knew it, I was in. I also represented Singapore in Weiqi with 2 friends and went to Thailand to compete. I won 2 matches but lost the other 3.

When I was 11 years old, I again represented Singapore in Weiqi and went to boston to compete. Sadly, I lost but at least I had learnt something.

Well, this is my life till 2007.
