sweet as a eucalyptus, terrible as a tempest
"¿Que pasa, Dora?" Dad would greet me.
I bring my new baby with me everywhere now, in a backpack, and my dad's been calling me Dora the Explorer ever since.
Mild shock, at first. Daddy knows Dora. And he tells me off for staying glued to the cartoon network, nickelodeon, and disney channels. It's just a proof that he's been watching too much morning television.

So Dora got Miyuki into an accident last night. Miyuki's right signal light's been smashed to pieces, all because of a stupid speeding SUV who didn't give way. that was at about past 7.
then Dora went to choir practice and as she got off the parking lot, she hit her head on the beam. good thing it was cushioned. this happened at around 730.
then Dora went into the church kitchen to rest a bit before the practice started. and she couldn't drink coffee; she was too depressed.
then Dora scratched her palm on the door post as she was leaving the kitchen.
Dora whined to her choir mate. Boy, am i having a bad luck streak tonight! First I hit my car, then I hit my head, then I scratched my palm!"
"Oh, forget about it, it's all over now..." choirmate said.
"...Because they come in threes!" choirmate said.
Funny, Dora didn't realize that. and she must hold the record for shortest time for badluck streak. it was all over in less than an hour.
