26 July 09. Not much of a remarkable day to go recording it down in CornerSpot, but I'm just doing it for fun.



We went to Midvalley today. But before that, Dad brought us over to a townhouse near our home. One of the houses there were for sale. He and Mum wanted to inspect it. I keep on asking them about this ( Dad keeps on looking up on the "houses for sale" section) and their answer is "Why do we want to buy it? We don't have money anyway."



Then why do they keep on looking at houses, I wonder?



The owner of a house was a tall, gangly man with a slight mustache. He wasn't very old. That guy guided us through the house, pointing at stuff and saying things that I didn't care to listen about. I didn't really like the house because there were long cracks everywhere and there was a hole in one of the windows. ( I have to admit that the hole wasn't big enough to go sticking my finger through it. But it was still a hole.)



After a lot of dillying and dallying we finally got into the car and drove away for lunch. I wasn't very hungry, despite my very meagre dinner at PappaRich yesterday. So I gave half my rice to Dad, who wasn't very pleased.



I did NOT enjoy it at Midvalley. The worst part of it was when I was buying white shoes for the school shooting on Friday. I had to queue up for ages at the cashier.



We wentto Pets Wonderland, where I spent half the time looking at cats. And most of the time they were fast asleep. Sometimes I wonder how it is to be a cat, when you have a long silky pelt and spend half your life snoring away.













After that we went to MPH Bookstores, where I finally bought ( and could read!) the book Nineteen Hours, by Jodi Picoult.

23 July 2009. The first time I have written in CornerSpot.

Although I made this blog 2 weeks ago.

Actually, I STILL do not exactly know what to write. OK. Let me introduce myself.

I'm Zhao Yu, 13, and I go to Vineyard Resources, a home-schooling center. My dad wanted me to create a blog by the end of this year, but being me, I created it on the day he said that. Now he wants me to teach him how to create a blog.

I might have stopped here,but since my dad wants me to add something more, I'll do it.

This morning, when I was at tuition, Dad and Mom ran off to MPH to get me a book. Now this is pretty weird because I was banned from reading books for not doing enough LIFEPACs. The book was called Yesterday's Weather, a bestseller br Anne Enright. Dad chose the book because it had won an award.

Very well then. As soon as I got home, I immediately threw myself down on the sofa to read it. I had assumed that it would be good for me.

How wrong I was.

Obviously this was not a book for my age.There were words such as "f---" and "s---" and the characters-uuuuuurgh. I'm not going to say.

Obviously this book was for adults, not for me.

I'm running out of time and I would have to write in again when I have the time. Bye.
