“Brisbane Explains After the custodian left, I noticed something odd beside my cage. Aldo was usually good at picking up things that didn’t belong in the classroom. However, this night, he had left something behind: his City College application. I opened the good old lock-that-doesn’t-lock and slipped out of my cage. “Don’t worry, Oggy old boy. I won’t bother you if you won’t bother me,” I assured him. Maybe I was reassuring myself he wouldn’t leap at me again. The application was a big piece of paper that folded up. Half of it was stuck under my cage, and it was hard to read what Aldo had written. If you’re a small hamster, human handwriting looks HUGE-HUGE-HUGE. The only light I had to read by was from the streetlamp outside the window. I squinted my eyes and I could read: AREA OF STUDY. On the line next to it, Aldo had written “Teaching” and scratched it out. On the line marked RECOMMENDATION, he hadn’t written anything. I was tempted to get out my little pencil and write a nice rec...ommendation myself.MoreLessShow More Show Less
