Chinese New Year!!!

My cousin Ariel came back for Chinese New Year!

She is 7 years old this year. I love playing with her. We play a lot together.
But Isaac and Ivan are always playing their Nintendo D.S., iPad, iPhone, PS2, and all sorts of electronic things. But I still like being with them.

This is my family (Mom's side). I'm in the blue cheong sam and Ariel's in the green one. Ivan is next to Ariel, and Isaac's next to Ivan. My sister's the one in light pink. Including the adults, it's quite a small family, don't you think so? Most families have a bigger family than this.

OK. Needa go!
 

Campfire Adventure

A few weeks ago, I had to write a story for my English work. I'd like to share it with you. Hope you like it!

This is my story:

Campfire Adventure

           I met Sandra at church one day on the 16th of July 2010. 
I said, "Hi, Sandra." and she replied saying, "Hi, Eunice." I suggested that we go search for Lucy, Adam, and Mike. She agreed. 
           We found Lucy at Burning Bush and Adam was around the concourse area. And Mike was hiding behind our backs! Well, at least we found him. 
           We wanted to go somewhere to have fun. Lucy suggested about going to an ice-cream shop, I suggested we go to Frim Forest Reserve, Adam suggested we go to the park and Mike copycatted me! Why does it always have to be me! Me! Me!
           Well, Adam said that my suggestion was the best, so the next day, we all boarded a bus and headed to Frim Forest Reserve.
           When we arrived, I took out some Kentucky Fried Chicken my mom made for us. Sandra took out marshmallows, Adam and Lucy took out meatballs, and Mike took out fishballs. A helper from the forest reserve helped us light our campfire. 
           We were all enjoying ourselves when I heard a hissing sound. I looked all around us and sure enough, there was a poisonous rattlesnake hiding behind two bushes.
           I shivered with fear as I pointed it out to my friends. Then I saw  that my dog was barking so hard his throat was sore! I made him swallow a doggy sore throat pill to make his sore throat go away. 
           After that, my friends and I began to shout towards the reserve center until our voices sounded like my dog's! But no one answered.
           Then Adam said, "Don't be afraid. Jesus is with us." We all prayed a silent prayer and then Mike began climbing up a tree. He poked a fishball into one of the branches. 
           The snake, curious, slithered up the tree. When it was still halfway up, Mike took out his pen knife and pierced it into the snake!
Mike hadn't been so brave in all his life! We all cheered, "Hooray for Mike!" and hugged him.
           "We can't do anything without you." I said. Everyone agreed.
