 I really enjoy reading all of these blogs. Each one has his or her style, and stories.

             It is hard for me to pick the one that I like the most because they are different of ideas. Each blog gives something to help me expand my learning. Life is everyday learning, so every word, every post in each blog are my new books to learn like learning in the big campus  University of  Life .

 

          Learning from the other people, I always open mind to absorb other people’ knowledge as much as I can. Learning needs the hungry mind to get the best result because no one can expert on every subjects, or everything in the world.

           In my life I have a good chance to learn from different kind of people that I met. I  learned from the gardener how to plant better. I learned from the bus driver how to drive safe on the icy roads in the winter. I  learned from the old fisherman how to observe on sky, and wind  to find out if it going to have big storm or not. I  learned from the street people how they went through their hard living among strangers, or how they can handle their depression and their lonely days without home to go, and much more about them.   I consider all of these people were my good teachers who shared their lives lessons  to me.  

             Thank you, to all teachers who give me varieties of  life experiences, include this Blogging Class  that helps my learning to grow up another step in the internet world

                 Leaning is not limit just in school, or universities, but also in our daily living too.

My father used to tell me that:

 

“Let learning be a part of your breathing; don’t stop learning until your breathing stop.  After feed your body with food, then feed your mind and soul with knowledge from God that he gives through people, animals, and all things around you.”

 

The Two Sisters’ Secret Day

 

     Boss let two dogs go online, this time we (two sisters) ask boss for our turn so that we have an equal opportunity as the Beagle, and the Sheep dog. Boss can not say no to us because this is the freedom country, whatever dogs can do, cats can do too.

 

    No, we don’t mean we will bark as dogs, but we want to share our stories to the world as Joa Ying, the Beagle, does on her journal. Tell you the truth, we don’t feel comfortable with that Beagle at all because she likes to give us the heart attack moment many times whenever she see us on our duty ( catching mice), sitting on the top of fish tank, or take a nap in our basketm she takes her action right away.

    It is our pet peeve when she put her cold nose to smell us for something as if she wants to know if we take a shower, or put deodorant under our armpits or not. That is not the Beagle’s business to check on us, so sometime we give her the big punch on her face, and scare her by our tough loud meows. Joa Ying keeps eyes on us whenever we sit close to the fish tank, and she always think we try to do something illegal. Then she acts like the main character of TV series movie “Murder She Wrote” to find out the clue for our actions on the top of fish tank. We know what she thinks, so we beware of her every movement.

   Talking about the  fish tank, we still remember that day. The day that we had to keep in secret for long time, and we don’t want boss to know about it because in boss’s eyes we must be a couple gentle kind hearts and innocent cats.

  Come closer, we don’t want to speak out loud.

    Oh! No, No! No! we didn’t try to do the illegal business, but that day we were watching all fishes swim in the water, while boss cooked food in the kitchen. It was fun to watch all of them. We looked right and left and saw nobody around, then we put our paws (without nails) in the water just to make sure the temperature was right for those poor fishes. Then we had focused on three small fishes on water surface. We tried to catch one of them. Oop! No we mean we wanted to give these little fishes a warm hug, that all.

    Before we can think of any thing, the nasty Joa Ying had blow out our precocious moment by her Beagle barking that made us almost hearts attack, and we forgot how we got on the top of the cupboard at that fast.

    We told her if she does like that again, and if we get hurt during our emergency moment, we will sue her for big price. Yes, we mean that!

     Since Boss got the big fish from her Chinese friend, we don’t really like to sit on the top of fish tank any more because that fish likes to splash water all over the place, and we don’t like to get wet.  We think all small fishes vote for him to be the chief fish now.  He is a fast swimmer, and he eats a lot of food in each day.  Who know? Maybe Someday he wills  eat one of us too. He should be on diet soon before he turns to over weight fish. 

 

“WOO! WOO! WOOF! I’m glad now both of you give up the evil idea about the fish tank because of Mr. Big Chief. WOO! WOO! WOOF!”

Oh! Gee we want to get rid that Beagle as soon as possible! Her barking is really irritates our mood.
