Letter 18 - Rats + 2/28 + Baseball + Nosedive

Rats

    One time, when my mom was sun-drying our clothes on the porch she saw a string like a wire on the plat form, so she thought why is there wire in this place, then she pulled it out and astonishingly she found out it was a dead rat's tail. But luckily the orange at the front porch of my house hadn't suffered from the pain of rats' bite, but it's probably because it rarely grow oranges out of it's branches.
    Another time I saw a dead rat at the marketplace, it was caught by human and guess how did it die? It was caught by a mousetrap and put into a box made out of Styrofoam, which is full of water. It was drowned to death! Though I think rats may seemed really annoying in our life, but when I see their sparkling and innocent eyes they seemed quite cute.
    I think the cutest kind of rat or mouse in the world is a "jerboa".
Adorable little thing


The 2/28 4-day vacation is around the corner!

    For the upcoming vacation I was planning to go to Allison's house on 2/27.
Because I don't have a Wii in my house, and when I first know about the Wii in her house I'm too excited that I asked her if I visit her some day, and the day has finally came!

Baseball 

    I don't really know more about baseball though I do tried to play baseball in elementary school but it didn't work out really well. But thinking of you and your grand children sitting side by side sharing the things you like together, it just made me felt really warm and peace.

The show

    We watched an ironic TV show in our English classes recently. The TV show is called "black mirror" and the episode is called "nosedive". It's talking about a society who people sees fake or lie to get rate, because the higher rate you get the higher people respect you, and you can even get discount from buying a house or it can brings you authorities.

  1. Dear Doris,
    Are you sure that your 'jerboa' is really a rat? A rodent, yes, but i not so sure about a rat.
    We now have foxes to help us with the rats. Read about them next week.
