dear tObey,

hey! guess what? i got my rats today!!! it was really spontaneous. um, well.. after stats class, me and jayv went to mimi's cafe to eat breakfast. i had the ham cheddar and brocolli (is that how you spell brocolli? i donnOo) with a honey bran muffin, and a tall glass of orange juice!! jayv had eggs, bacon and toast, with a small glass of orange juice. it was yummy, and our server was nice. :) so, yeah. then afterwards we went to b and n to try and study. but to no avail. then.. we went to kinkos to make some copies, and out of nowhere, jayv's mom calls us and tells us that our psych teacher called and said we didnt have to take our midterm for another two weeks! isnt that awesome?! so we were both really excited. then we stopped by petsmart b/c i wanted to show her that rats are so nice!! and of course she didnt want to touch it. but it got me an idea yanno? like.. hey! i miss having emily and whiskers around.. so i went to petco (with sushi) and we looked at rats.. b/c we wanted girl rats!! and they had some. their cage was 50 dollars, they rats themselves were 5.99, anyways, my whole total was 90 bucks. :P but they are worth it! (i hope) they are kinda nervous. they are already 6 months about, so i donno if i can tame them. well, i think if i handle them all the time, they'll get used to it. but they dont bite or anything, like hamsters. YECK. i dont like hamsters! they are evil. ok, well not evil. not they are CRANKY little creatures!! i much prefer rats over any critter anyday. well, we named them whiskers (after whiskers) and maddy (short for madeline). maddy is all brown. she's so cute!! and whiskers looks like my old rat emily, but we named her whiskers cause we thought it was a cuter name. hehe... but im seriously thinking about switching to emily. ok anyways!! i think my mama is home..

time it took to convince mom to let me have rats: 2 minutes. (thats gotta be a record or something!) okay, i g2g � i think im off to study!! take cares.
