Chinese New Year

    Before I cycled out the door, I checked the clock. It blinked, "9:45." 

"I still have 15 minutes." I said to myself. As I continued to scamper out the door, I saw a large crowd of people. Everyone was wearing red. And so was I. Trying to snake through the crowd, I made it, right up front and centre. That's the best spot for the Chinese Dragon dance. Anxiously waiting, I lit my lantern. Staring at its beautiful yellow glow, the dragon had finally, arrived. After the dance had come to an end, we all started following the dragon and sang.

Monkey

   We hired a baboon! Okay, we hired him because well, we wanted to try something advanced. Plus he was head of his class. On his first day, he was tremendous at his job. But about a week later he changed. We gave him a laptop, sense that's his job, but I guess he thought it was his lunch break. Because when we gave him the laptop, he made a powerful monkey squeal and chucked the laptop off the desk and it smashed into a million pieces. After that, we got him a banana and he was fine. I don't know why he flipped. I guess some people can't work when they're starved.

The Hungry Tiger

   Being a zookeeper is a blast. Most of the time. Tigers are my favourite, but they can be a pretty grouchy at times. Earlier today, I was going to feed, Lily, with my new co-worker.

   “Have you ever fed a tiger before?” I asked.

   “No,” he confessed nervously, “I hope she’ll like me.”

   “She will, trust me.”

   When we fed, Lily, she was as happy as a tiger could be. But as Joe and I were trying to leave, the tiger was blocking our escape.

   “What will we do?” Joe cried.

   “We need to act big and loud.” I ensured him. We threw our hands up and growled.

The Sandwich Thief

   "Come back here!" I hollered, "Come back with my sandwich!" I had no clue who in the world would steel my sandwich. As I hurried down the damp streets, I noticed that a bunny had stolen my sandwich. Which looked exactly like the bunny from that battery commercial. The energetic one, with a snowball white tail. Wondering who on earth would wear that ridiculous costume. I eventually caught up to him. Yanking the mask off with all my might, I realized that the mask was not able to be detached.

A Walk in the Woods. 

  Staring. Wondering. Thinking. Thinking what on earth is that mysterious looking thing standing in the middle of the woods. Leaning towards my friend, I whispered, "Hey, Julie?"

   "Yeah?" she whispered back.

   "What do you think that is?"

   "I don't know. But let's go check it out."
   When we approached, we noticed that it was only a statue. There was also a sign that read, "This statue represents Jacob White, who saved a child from being kidnapped."
  "Interesting!" Julie said, "This man looks like he would kidnap a kid. Not save one."
   "I agree." I said continuing home.

French Fries

   This morning was my first day working at my new job, McDonald's. And of course, whenever I start a new job I get super clumsy. All was going great until, I was taking someones order at the drive thru. I thought that sense I've taken a few orders now, this would be easy, no problem. But as I was running to go get french fries, I bumped into the french fry maker! All I could see were fries everywhere.
"What happened?" asked Joe
"I bumped into it!" I cried sitting on the floor, "But were will we hide it all?"

The Day of The Dead Disaster.

   "I can't wait for tomorrow," I told my white dog, Buddy, "I hope the way we celebrated the Day of The Dead last year won't happen again.  Remember that, Buddy? As the flames were swimming up into the sky, you got to close to the bonfire and your ear caught on fire!  I had to heave you out from the punch bowl, after I had shoved you into it to put fire the out.  And all of the decorations were ruined from you running around in circles.  Remember that, Bud?"

"Woof, woof." he replied.  

"I wonder what will happen this year." I said, hoping it will be nothing like last year.
