Haemophilia
Did you know?
Haemophilia is a group ofhereditary genetic disorders that impair the body's ability to control blood clotting or coagulation, which is used to stop bleeding when ablood vessel is broken. It is more likely to occur in males than females. Why? It is because females have two X chromosomes while males have only one, so the defective gene is guaranteed to manifest in any male who carries it. The chance of a female having two defective copies of the gene is very low, so females are almost exclusively asymptomatic carriers of the disorder. Female carriers can inherit the defective gene from either their mother or father, or it may be a new mutation. Only under rare circumstances do females actually have haemophilia.

Technical Dress Rehearsal
Today, we had our TDR for our CAE play. At first, I was a little bit nervous because it was the firs time that I would present on stage. Well, except during practices. But you know that feeling deep inside of you like there are butterflies in your stomach. All of us were arranging the props etc. When our TDR started, the atmosphere in the St. Anne's Hall changed. Suddenly some of were panicking for the props or for the characters to go out of the stage for their scene. But even though we had many mistakes, our TDR was a success! YEHEY!!!!
