My little room mate, Mildred

We were told when we first came to Changzhou that we would each have our own rooms. I was so excited to have this wonderful freedom. Well I got my hopes up too high because about a week after I moved in a rat showed up. I named it Mildred. It had gotten into my garbage but not a big deal, right? I didn't worry to much about it. Eventually each night things got a little worse. Mildred ended up taking a bite out of all my granola bars and ate some other things. This isn't the worse part, though. Me and the girls stayed the night in Nanjing to go to church and Mildred decided to surprise me when I got home. I opened up my sock drawer and he had made a little home, including his own bathroom! We were all screaming! I didn't sleep in my room for the next few nights. I had a serious talk with one of the faculty at the school, named Jo. He got me a trap and some poison. I put the trap out that night and miraculously, and after much prayer, the next morning he was caught. Muah haha. I was so happy! The Lord does answer our prayers, even the most simple ones.
