In addition to my last post, 2/10 of my million dollars will be given to the church. And to Steve
Irwin's death yesterday, I'll give like 10,000 to his zoo or kids or something. My sister has absolutely no emotions and doesn't feel sad for this crocodile hunter. I mean, I'm not his number one fan and if you ask me anything about him (or crocodiles) I can't rattle on about biography but I do think he is a brave person and my condolenceses to his family. I hope they stay strong, especially his kids 'cos they're cute and young and small and can't manage without a dad if you ask me... I mean tons of other people die everyday but because he made a mark to the animal world I think he should be recognise. Today I stayed back for musical practice. It was quite nice to stay back and hang lut with friends... that is if the homework is slashed out. It's the holidays! I don;t need the extra homework because guess what, we got an exam!
