Feb 09th 2013 <Taking Care of my Sister's Dog>
•My sister took her dog to my house, because she went to take a trip with her family members the day before yesterday.
• Her dog is schnauzer, which is the same kind as my dogs.
•
Her dog Konan doesn`t care about my dogs; on the contrary, my two dogs Betty and Zzang-A are nervous about the appearance of a new dog.
•
Konan freely goes around in the living room and he looks right at home; however, my two dogs would rather stay in the corner of the living room and watch Konan.
• Konan is really smart and very cute; however, I couldn't dare express it so as to prevent inciting their awful jealousy.

-<Sigh~ A Scary Day /Sigh~ It Was Really Scary One Day >--------
The spring snow fell nonstop yesterday through the night.
In the morning I started my car and drove out of an underground parking and found something.
Wow what is it?" I thought.
The whole world has become pure and white. So beautiful!
I had to stop my car to take some pictures of the tree branches in bloom with white flowers, although I was rushing to work.

Uhoooo~ however the mood didn't last long.
As soon as I went out on the road I became nervous because the road was too slippery. I just held a the steering wheel and drove almost ?/ as looks like a turtle was grabbling on the road slow slowly ....

Once I arrived at the school gate, something even worse was waiting for me.
My car couldn't make it up the slope of school gate, because the snow that fell last night was frozen hard. It was too slippery.
While the back of the car rocked from side to side on the snowing road, I was really scared.
Other teachers pushed my car from behind and I barely passed through the school gate.

~Everybody, Have a safe and pleasure day!~
