Stalker kitty

So as some of you have heard, there is a 45% chance my mum is letting me get a cat. As for how I convinced her, don't even ask. She is still strongly opposed to the idea but if I must get a cat, she wants a pale coloured (preferable ginger or white) kitten apparently because they are cuter. Total opposite of the cat I am viewing tonight. It's a lilac-coloured Scottish fold cat (5 yrs old) named Bodhi, and he comes home with me free. I'm not a HUGE fan of the cat's appearance but the breed is a really good and usually expensive one, plus there aren't that many free cats in our region. Should I get him or get a cute little ginger kitty? I think Bodhi looks like a stalker kitty. Slightly evil, too. And my mum does not like him. But as the owner says, he kind of is a very cool-looking cat. In his own unique way.






Ok, now a bit about what my holidays are like. I'm reading 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn' which is boring, as to be expected for English Extension. And I think I should read 'Tom Sawyer' before reading that book but no way can I be bothered to. I am obsessed with this book series at the moment. It's a bit of a trashy-ish read, but it's called 'Pretty Little Liars' and I bought like 8 books of the series overseas because it's really popular in America. It's surprisingly good for a series that looks trashy. I think the author is really clever with it, because I can finish one of those books in like 2 days. Trying to keep myself from reading that though, I'm meant to be reading more boring stuff. I'm looking for more Philipa Gregory books too, because I liked 'The Boleyn Inheritance'. Or maybe it was just because I was reading it at Disneyland and Universal Studios. Some people looked at me a bit weirdly but hey, I'm not about to stand in an hour long queue by myself with nothing to do! I'm also watching 'Thelma and Louise' for English Extension. It's definitely not an amazing movie but it's actually a bit less boring that I thought it'd be. Everything about it just screams '90's' though.

My ultimate cat breeds: Chinchilla and Ragdoll. A woman emailed me today offering one of her part-Persian kittens for free. Persians are cute. I'm really not sure now!!! Should I get evil Bodhi or a fwuffy kitty or a ginger kitty or what??? I'm kind of leaning towards the part-Persian now. Aren't Persians usually expensive, too? But if I want Bodhi I have to get him today, because the guy said lots of people have asked about him. But I really am looking for a kitten rather than a cat. Argh!

Decisions, decisions! Oh and if you're wondering why I don't seem as excited as I ought to be, it's because I kind of don't believe this is happening. Also, I'm pretty sick today. Really sore throat and nasty cough so I'm kind of feeling a bit out of it.

P.S. Guys, I'm really really really wanting to save up a lot of money this year and I only have like 3 kids to teach compared to 6 last year. Because one of them moved to Vietnam, another is still in Shanghai and another wants me to just tutor him in creative writing because he doesn't like piano and I'm not sure about that yet so I might call his mum back later. That means I really need more kids. So if you know any kids wanting to learn piano, please recommend me! I'll love you forever :) The rate is $30 per hour. Plus you'll earn a cool $10 commission from the first lesson on recommending a kid. So that's a way for you to earn money too, right?
