Last week I witnessed a real-life incident that really amazed me. It was the end of the year holidays which meant our whole family would have to go for a traditional family trip. This year my parents decided to go to Singapore for a week. I hated family trips. The last trip was a disaster as I was unlucky enough to fall into a trap hole and sprained my ankle. Even with all the persuading and begging, my parents would not allow me to stay at home with our pet dog Zheng. So I decided to make the best of it and just tag along hoping nothing bad will happen to me.
The first day in Singapore was the usual boring activities which my mom and two sisters defined as fun. For five hours, I had to tag along and give opinions on clothing and jewelry they tried on. Other than looking at the tons and tons of pretty women wearing very little clothes, there was about nothing else that I could do. As we were about to walk back to our hotel, I noticed a colorful poster which said " A real life experience for the whole family". The poster was actually talking about the national zoo. I've heard quite a lot about the Singapore national zoo from my English teacher. I remember hearing her say that going to the zoo can be a very interesting experience. I asked my parents to take us to the zoo the next day and they only agreed when I told them that my English teacher said it might be an interesting experience. I was excited, the next day I wouldn't have to tag along and give opinions anymore.
The next morning, we woke up early eager to experience the amazing creations of God. Lucky for us, that day happened to be a weekday so there wasn't too many people at the zoo. The first few animals we passed by were kind of boring as all they were doing was sleeping and lazing around. I wanted to see some action, like the animals doing tricks, fighting, or feeding on their preys. As we walked on, we finally came about to two rhinoceros who were running around each other looking like they were going to fight each other.
