Agression of a Champion

Tommy (front) and Kai Ming (behind) entering the last stretch of the grueling cross country race with a palpable wave of aggression.

Tommy may not have clinched the gold medal, but his leech-like tenacity has definitely won him a place in the 07S68-Hall-of-Fame.

btw Tommy, thanks for blocking Kai Ming's face :)

Quote Appreciation

"Yes, you are right; you are not wrong."

- Mr. Ang, 2nd April, in response to Philip Chan's very chim question.

Let's analyze the beauty of the language in Mr. Ang's phrase, "Yes, you are right; you are not wrong."

In Hebrew literature, such phrasal structure is known as Synonymous Parallelism. It is used to emphasize the meaning of the first line, by repeating itself with different words in the second line.

"you are right" -> means: you are right
"you are not wrong" -> means: you are right (re-emphasize that you are right)

This shows that Mr. Ang agrees with Philip's concern that the Hwa Chong diploma has to capture the holistic development of the student, especially in terms of preparing them for life.

Mr. Ang also used alliteration in the first two words of the phrase "Yes, you..." The repetition of the "y" sounds creates affinity between his affirmation(yes) and Philip (you), further expressing his agreement with Philip.

The repetitive use of the words "you are...", "you are...", indicates that Mr. Ang is speaking specifically to Philip. This is effective in making sure that he is answering the question to the point.

Some other examples of Synonymous Parallelism:

1. Definition of sub-pass: I didn't fail my test\ I just didn't pass.

Enjoy the quote & your weekend!
