Random person (fat) - not much rice

Connection (to world): my connection to the world here is actually the incident of the titanic. Some of the survivors in the life boats “kissed” (touched and climbed aboard) the Carpathia. Where, they were given I think blankets and food.

Question: What was the name of the ship that saved them? Was it a big boat kind of like the titanic? Who was on board? Where was it headed?

Comment: FINALLY. It’s so pleasing to know that hopefully all of them are safe and now they all can drink as much water and eat much, much more fresh food!

# data[].attributes.body
Connection: I don’t know if it’s happened(probably has) but I think that many people just carry something really close to them, then the somehow loses it. It happens a lot!

Question: If Khoi was able to do this, was it his choice item? If not, what DID he bring?

Comment: SOOOOO SAD! I was just so disappointed and sad when I learnt the chick died! Poor Khoi, it must hurt to loose a pet! I would act exactly as he did if I was in that situation!

Questions: Where is the ship currently?

Connections: (My situation was a bit different from brother Khoi) So I was going to a boy scout.

But one day, I was feeding it and another group of bird landed on my house and my bird joined the group and "get lost".

Question: Why was she so obsessed with it?

Connection: I took out my hair to touch too!

# data[].attributes.body
Connection: sometimes, I do things that seem dumb to do at first but then it kind of makes sense, like, her mom can become rich just because of a ring!

Question: I’m sure that her dad gave his family a lot of stuff to his family before he went into war, so why did mother only carry 1 amethyst ring? She could have gotten 2 small things and they wouldn’t have to think about it!

Comment: I actually have mixed feelings about this one. On one hand, her family can because slightly more richer, but on the other, she will lose something of great value. I wonder what choice she will make!

Connection: I haven’t watched the movie yet but it’s kind of like in Spider-Man when most people preferred the hound Peter Parker over the old one.

Question: Why would the boo? Why don’t they like the old one too much?
