study questions:

1. What did Liam do to be put on “house arrest”?

Liam was put under house arrest to check up on rabies.

2. What could happen to a dog if it’s a “serious” bite?

The dog would be taken away and put down. Unless if it was an intruder.

3. Why was Liam excused from a more serious punishment?

Because the lady went in without permission and Liam hadn't bitten anyone like that before.

First, here are the study questions.

1. Why did many American women during this time use old flour sacks to make clothing for their families?
Because the bags are cheap, since it is just a bag that use to carry flour, and you can make a lot of clothes at a low price.
2. How did the flour and animal feed companies try to take advantage of this practice?
The flour and animal feed companies tried to take advantage of this practice by marketing the flour bag. They may include patterns or instructions on the bag.

3. What were some of the reasons for the decline in popularity of the “flour sack” dresses?
The sack clothing aren’t as fashionable as the ones at the stores and that schools are no longer giving required classes on how to make them.

Actually, fun fact: I was in a fashion design club in middle school, because I was super obsessed with designing and creating clothes, I was so destined to be a fashion designer, but then when I turned 15, I decided that I was more interested in becoming a flight attendant!

Hey Tim

From your questions to my previous letter: no, I’m not going back to the job since it’s only a temporary exhibition. However, your letter about Mei Mei reminded me of this one particular thing on my bucket list, volunteer at a animal shelter.

Letter 19

What’s up, Tim

Answering to your question from the previous letter:

I only had the job for two days, since it was a short exhibition, but I can tell you a funny experience I had. So in the exhibition, there are plenty of pregnant ladies here looking around, but the problem is, they’re bringing their besties with them. Why is that a problem, you ask? Welp, it was  helpful that many of them wore a tight shirt, so I can identify who  the pregnant one is and which one isn’t, since my job was to hand out small samples of the food that the Postnatal Care company produces.
The worst situation is two chubby ladies come in,

Greetings, Tim

My family doesn’t really participate in the Tomb Sweeping Day. Well. Not completely.
We are not like other traditional families, actually going to “visit” our ancestors and clean up their tombs, instead, we just go to our grandparents house and pray to them there.

I want to share the story of my interesting first-time experience with you.

On Wednesday, which was the first day of the holiday, I went to a job interview. Because I went on the internet to search for jobs that only requires employees for 2-3 days. And I found a job at the biggest exhibition center in Taipei. It was a exhibition about “Mommies and Kids”.

Hey Tim

Although we don't celebrate St.Patrick's Day, but I had these earrings on for the weekend just for fun:

I'm so glad you brought up the Winter Olympics, because I would like to express my absolute OBSESSION for the Shibutani siblings - a.k.a The Shibsibs! 

Letter 15

The winter vacation ended with a blink of an eye, I’m already missing the days when I could sleep and wake whenever I wanted...
I didn’t visit foreign countries like my classmates, I spent the entire vacation in the north part of Taiwan. And because of my lazy personality, I stayed home most of the time.
But, I did go to some tourist attractions in Taiwan.

Letter 14

Just like you, I didn't go out and have a wild party on New Years Eve. Though at first I thought maybe I can go watch the fireworks at the Taipei 101 with William but sadly he went somewhere else with his best friends. From what I heard, many people my age had some alchohol and went crazy that night.
Exams are in less than 2 weeks,

Letter 13

Happy new year!
I can't believe it is already 2018, I can still remember the first day of 2017 as if it was yesterday...
I am still coming up with my new years resolutions, one of the goals is definitely to exercise, which has always been my goals, but this year, I have let loose of myself and I have so much body fat everywhere and I don't know what to do with them, especially when I wear my skin tight outfits, I just can't stand it anymore.
So, now I'm cutting down on all the sugary drinks as a head start, which is quite difficult because Patrick, who sits behind me, is always having junk food and unhealthy drinks on his desk.
The thing that makes me more mad is that he is so much skinnier than me!
Anyways, my main goal this year is to gain back my healthy body from 2016.
