Why did the chicken cross the road?

       Well, the first thing you need to know is this chicken called Grumpy had a hard childhood. His father went with another hen and left him and his mother when he was about to hatch. His mother looked after him for a few years but when Grumpy was 4 years old, his mother sold him into slavery. This is because his mother loved his father so much and she decided to go and find his father without Grumpy as a burden.
        
      He worked as a slave for a few years at a farm located far from the town that he used to live at. The man who owned the farm was very cruel. He tortured all the slave working at his farm. Sometimes he did not even gave them food to eat for two days. Nobody suspected that he had almost a hundred of chicken working for him at the farm due to his outwards appearances he was a kind and successful farmer.

       One day, Grumpy felt very fed up with his life as a slave and decided to kill the owner and escape from there. He killed the owner by pecking his jugular vein. He quickly left the farm. Shortly after the owner's family found out who had killed him, they put up a fifty thousand bounty. It was payable to whoever who found him, tortured and killed him. Grumpy was very afraid that he would be found and killed so he went to a town that was very far from the farm.
      
      He changed his name and lived with a new life at the town with the name Snoopy. He worked as a chicken boxer there for a few years. He slowly earned enough money to rent a house there. He even met a nice hen there and started dating with her. After few years, his girlfriend got pregnant. So, he left his job as a chicken boxer and went to find another job. He found a job as a clerk at a company. With this job, he earned a lot of money because his boss was very satisfied with his attitude as a worker and made him the manager of the company.

       Two years later, he got two strokes of bad luck. Firstly, his wife left him and took the children with her and went with another chicken. Secondly, his company was going through hard time and bankrupted at last. He had lost his job. That night, he went to drink at a bar and got drunk. He was standing outside the bar and looking at the car passing trough the highway nearby. He felt so desperate. He even wanted to die. Suddenly, a thought came into his mind.

       The highway! That was it. He could ran over the road and be 'accidentally' killed. He staggered out over the road, trying to position himself in front of the largest vehicles as possible as he could. All the vehicles avoided him and honk furiously at him. He staggered on and before he realized it he had crossed the road and reached the other side.

              This is why did the chicken cross the road...........

An experience when I have read a person wrongly

       I still remembered that when I was in form one, I had read a person wrongly. I was so embarass when this incident happened. The situation was so awkward. It happen like this.......
      One morning, I went to my English tuition. As usual, I took out my book and read quietly at my seat. It still have 10 more minutes before the class get started. After a while, a girl came in with her mother. Her mother was paying the fee while she was standing besides her mother. After her mother had paid the fee, she left. My teacher asked her to sit at the empty seat besides me. Firstly, teacher ask her to introduce herself. She stood up and said," My name is Annie." Then she quickly sat down. Teacher thought she was so shy so did not ask her to introduce further and started to start with the lesson.
      An hour later, we had a short break for 10 minutes. So, I started to talk with Annie. Firstly, I asked her for her name. She looked at me without any expression and said,"Annie." She quickly turned back and looking at her book. I had a bad impression towards her. She seems like to be an unfriendly girl. So, from that day onwards I never talk to her again.
      Until one day, I just found out that she was not unfriendly but she was just very shy and timid. One of my friend said that she is very timid in school and was so shy to talk to anybody. I felt so sorry for misunderstood her. She is so innocent. So, I went to apologize to her. So, I decided to apologize to her when she went to toilet.
      Finally, one afternoon, I met a opportunity to apologize to her. She went to the toilet during the short break. I asked teacher's permission to go to the toilet after she had asked. So, I went to the toilet. There were only two toilet. The two toilet had been used. I guessed that she was at the right one so I waited her to come out in front of the door. When I heard the door was unlocked, I quickly apologizes to her with my head looking downwards. After a few minutes, there was no any response. So, I lifted up my head and I realized that the people standing in front of me was not her and she was shocked by me. I felt so embarassed and quickly walked away. When I just turned around, I saw Annie was just standing there looking at me. The situation was so awkward.
      I quickly went back to class. After I went into the class, Annie also went into class. So, I decided to apologize to her again. I couraged myself and apologized to her. She nodded her head.
      From that day onwards, I am very caution when I am judging a person and I will be cautions in doing anything to avoid me from doing such a embarassed thing again.

Continue form the title " What I like best about myself?"

Sorry that I forget to add in the 5 words given by my teacher. I like best about myself is I am a optimistic girl. I am always happy because I don't think negative things. Besides that, I am amicable with my friends because I don't think negative way of my friends. I also like to have challenges because it is fun to have challenges. My future will be full of money if I follow my principle that is be hardworking. Then I will be rich when I grow up.

What I like best about myself?

Actually, I don't know what I like best about myself.. But since this is the title given by my English teacher, then I will say.. I like best about myself is.. I LOVE BLACK!! For me, black is the most wonderful colour in this world. But actually black is not a colour. Nevermind. But I still love it. Besides that, I also like best about myself is I have a pair of quite pretty eyes. But I don't think many people agree with it. Because I wear spectacles, so my quite pretty eyes is hidden under my spectacles. Another thing that I like best about myself is I can swim quite fast. But i think many people also can swim fast. I started swimming when I was 6 years old. I love swimming. I used to swim very often last time. But now, I am quite lazy and I am very busy nowadays. So.... That's all for it. Thank you!
