Snowy

It is small, fluffy and cute. It has thick white fur. When I cuddle it, the fur feels soft. Snowy does not like
bones. Everyday it eats soft food like steamed rice, fish or bread. Every morning I give her milk and

because Snowy does not bark a lot. It treats the other animals in our house gently, and it never bites
shoes.

The Things I Like and Dislike
School is a place I have to go to everyday, except Sundays and the holidays
of course. I spend a lot of time in school. One thing that I like the most is recess time.
The relief of consuming food and drinks at the cafe-shop is really satisfying. What
more, my friends are always there to provide great company and companionship but
the bell that signals the end of recess is not what I like, it’s just like the end of the joy
ness.
Classes are not totally interesting. It Much depends on the teachers. Some
teachers have a knack of making their lessons interesting, so it is pleasant to learn
something, but some of them make me bored and sleepy since I can’t catch the points.
When the examinations approaches, it is the time of sorrow, sometimes it
makes me get stressed especially for Math.
I have a great feeling of joy as I wait gleefully for the holidays. I prepare for it
well a week before. And can’t wait the day comes.
