squirrels don't fly
there are squirrels everywhere in this school. you would find them scurrying around the fountain, running up and down the trees, and there like philippine
butikis, they can run up and down the walls, especially here where the walls have pebbles.
sometime last week, it was raining pretty hard, so everything was wet - including the walls of the buildings. as i was walking on my way back home, i heard a SLAP sound, like a big slab of meat was dropped to the floor - a squirrel dropped in front of me.
so there was i, wet and cold, and not farther than five feet away from me is a squirrel on its side, save the one leg jerking.
i was soooo freaked out, thinking i just saw a squirrel died in front of me! then i walked closer to check, he then jumped back up and ran away. this freaking squirrel scared the shit out of me and he's alive?! he must have fallen at least a storey high.
so i continued on walking and looked up where the squirrel must have been before it plunged to his possible death. maybe the squirrel was suicidal. and guess what i found - another squirrel. i just bet that other squirrel was laughing its butt off.
it wasn't an attempted suicide - it could have been murder.
