Coincidence, perhaps

Still remember one of my previous post regarding a newspaper article that is about rats infesting the whole Orchard road? I discovered a rat in a trashbin in my class this morning! It was a black rat; not sure about its size, but I do know that its an adult. Also not sure how it got into the bin in the first place, it was unable to climb, jump out of the holding area this morning when I first saw it. I would believe that it fell from the ceiling and dropped straight into the bin and got trapped. Out of amazement, I videoed the rat for awhile, wanting to it show off to my friends who did not witness the rat commotion. Of course, had really fun times having the rat around, most of the girls screamed when they first saw it which cracked me up. No, I am not sick, just that their reactions were really funny.

My fun and laughter stopped when Ms Soh came to our classroom to deposit the visualiser for later usage. Our class showed her our newest pet and she demanded us to release it back into the wild. I had a huge dissapointment then, I expected her to jump and scream and plead us to get it away from her, but no, she just have to kill my fun by liberating it. She made Pearle hold the dustbin and follow her downstairs and commenced the operation- "Rat's freedom". I did trust people to adopt more cats then to get rid of the source.

And there it ended, the rat was gone- from my sight. It ran straight into drain, and I could safely assume that it would still lurk around the school, with its extremely huge family. With their sharp teeth, preparing to get hold of any leftovers as soon as we are gone. Now that I think of it, rats are everywhere. Eew, not going to see things the way they are again. And there goes my optimism. Oh well, good day everyone! :)
