A weird story

  I’m in a weird place which called Bourvia. The weather is very hot and dry in Bourvia. There is swarming with mosquitoes. Because Malaria is carried by the mosquito, Malaria is spreading easily here. The people who live in Bourvia are fighting all night and day against mosquitoes. Bourvia is a rich source of diamonds, so many people can buy them cheaply there. People often wear diamonds when they go other countries because diamonds are valuable owing to their rarity in other places. Many wild animals inhabit in the meadow of Bourvia. Especially there are a lot of fierce animals like a tiger to inhabit, so we should always be careful when we walk across there. Look at that animal over there! It’s a lion. The lion is glaring at its prey. I am afraid of that. There are lots of tigers too. A tiger sometimes attacks people for no particular reason, so we need to look around there. Oh, my god! Speak of the devil…a tiger is growling at me. Run away!
