Enough on wordy puzzles...try this

Greetings boys and girls,
I was wondering maybe I could help you solve a physical puzzle that is one of life's greatest mysteries...the RUBIK's cube...

Many like me would not like it as I've tried but just can't. There's a saying that says a person is gifted IF he/she can solve just one side (WITHOUT any prior knowledge of the Rubik's cube, meaning by hard-thinking and with a little luck). How nice it is to know that you're gifted!!! heh

Part 1


Part 2




-LIST OF ALGORITHMS-

1) Fi U Li Ui

2) Ri Di R D

3) U R Ui Ri Ui Fi U F

4) Ui Li U L U F Ui Fi

5) F R U Ri Ui Fi

6) R U Ri U R U U Ri

7) U R Ui Li U Ri Ui L

8) Ri Di R D

Legend:
U = up
L = left
F = front
R = right
D = down
No "i" means clockwise direction, with "i" means anti-clockwise direction (i = inverted)

May the Force be with you!!!

Idioms and phrases

Hi all,

I thought it would be good to share Sheryl's questions on English in an email to me yesterday. Just like how I've shared the riddles, now I'm sharing other info.

Enjoy...

1. Bull in a china shop = an awkward or clumsy person / an inconsiderate or tactless person / a troublemaker; dangerous person

2. Dog with two tails (actually its "be like a dog with two tails") = to be very happy

3. Bear with a sore head = to be in a bad mood which causes you to treat other people badly and complain a lot

4. Lose heart = to give up / to stop believing that you can succeed

5. Cat on hot bricks = to be nervous and unable to keep still

6. Spilt our sides = to laugh a lot at something

7. Held his tongue (actually its "hold your tongue") = to stop talking

8. Put his foot down = decided on something and will not decide again or change his/her mind

You can find the meanings of idioms at these websites

Take care of your health!

Hello boys and girls,

After talking to Sheryl Chen during PE today and later found out she went home for not feeling well, I urge all pupils to take care of your health. Please inform your parents if you are not feeling well early so you can get the appropriate medicine as soon as possible.

To Sheryl Chen, please have a good rest before you continue to study hard again. Remember, a healthy body will support a smart mind. It's a waste to have an intelligent mind without the support of the rest of the body system!
