The day's my condition was good. Everyone were surprised, of course, me too(^U^;) My friends were really good at play darts, so I want to be like them!! I have to practice more during spring vacation.
After that, we went to HORIZON that new opened darts cafe. I didn't play it there. I got new flights and shafts and rings. I changed my darts. It looks really cute and I love it very much(>U<*) I'd like to play darts with it soon!!!!

Book Review 2-18

I read HANNAH AND THE HURRICANE.
Hannah is sixteen and lives on an island. She is on holiday from school and is working for Mr Duval on his glass-bottomed boat. Mr Duval can only pay Hannah a little money, but she likes working for the old man. Mr Duval's boat is the only glass-bottomed boat on the island. But one day, new boat appeared. Many people waiting for it. Because it is cheaper than Duval's. Max Marker is new ship's owner. He thinks money is everything. The next morning, there is a strong storm coming - a hurricane!! They tried to save his ship, but it is too late. Hannah goes to Max Marker's house. Then she heard his voice - 'Help! Help!'. She found him. There are stones and some of the roof on top of him. She could help him. He wanted to give her some money, but she refused. Instead of it, she made him promise.

I don't like this story too much. But I think Hannah has really important mind for our life. I'd like to imitate her.

They talk to him and show him to all their friends. But Felix is not happy. He wants to go home to Brazil. One day, Mr Baxter didn't shut Felix's cage. He flies out of his cage and out of the window. After an hour, he took a rest on the head of the Statue of Liberty. Two hours later it starts to rain. He found a ship, and stayed there. Two days later Felix flies across Peru. He met one bird. Felix tells his story. The bird has a friend - Aca - in Rio. And he knows the jungle. Felix flies from Peru to Rio. Then, he could see Aca. He helped Felix, and finally, Felix met his family!!
