my 5-hour pet

my co-teacher portia freaked out this morning when she found this baby snake on the floor of our faculty room (yep.. inside our room! hahaha). one of our PE teachers was able to place the snake inside an empty C2 bottle.. but they didn't know what to do with it afterwards.

now, since most of the people in our faculty room were squeamish when it comes to reptiles (even "bottled" ones hehe), i took it upon myself to "adopt" the poor creature.. at least, for a couple of hours.

i seriously considered bringing it home.. but had second thoughts 'coz i don't think mom would approve (i didn't want to wait to see if she'd faint first, hahaha). so i left "CJ" the snake (my little friend aya named it) with some trusted office staff.. with instructions NOT to have him/her killed. i think they gave CJ away to sir banjo, our boy scout leader.

i hope he cares for CJ. i've grown fond of the little fella :p
