Sweet Lullaby

 
Right this second i wish Michael and Adam was lying on my bed with me, Michael on my left, Adam on my right…

so they could whisper in my ears, their voices so soothing and enchanting…

on and on the whole night till i fall asleep soundly…

dream a happy dream, away from all things dreadful and haunting and away from nightmares.

Good night.

Donkey, carrot and the stick

Donkey, carrot and the stick

 
Have you heard of the idiom, the “carrot and stick”? It’s about reward and punishment that encourages us to push forward.

The main and most known story goes like this. The driver would dangle a carrot on a long stick in front of a donkey making sure it’s always out of reach. The donkey would move forward to reach the carrot, therefore pulling the cart.

My favorite interpretation is however, the driver would dangle a carrot to drive the donkey. The donkey move forward and is awarded a nibble. Else, there is a back-up stick hidden in the cart and the donkey ends up with a sorry arse (pun not intended).

Some people would need the carrot to survive in the world.
For some, both carrot and the stick must comes in a package.
Some people would need only the stick.

Gentle Giant

 
There. I finally found a template i’m satisfied with, so i’m pretty happy coz i really can’t blog with ugly template. Who can right? Well, technically i didn’t find this template myself, ok i saw it on someone’s blog a long time ago and and i loved it to pieces but i forgot about it till i saw Evo‘s blog. Haha now i just hope he wont notice the similarities. Yeah right wtf.

Ok, change topic.

So, i was looking through the pics from my Thailand trip when i found this.

Ain’t she adorable
 

She was lying in front a grocery shop in Chiang Mai and like any other doggies i’d seen around Thailand, she was dozing off blissfully, ignoring passersby. I swear, all the mongrels i’ve seen in Bangkok could sleep just about anywhere at all!

I saw one in the middle of the harbor, one on the side of the busy street and another on the steps of Siam Paragon – one of the busiest places in Bangkok especially during weekends right?. But hey, i think Thailand dogs could sleep peacefully even if on the center stage of a heavy metal concert >o<.

I shall learn the ‘chi’ of the Thailand dogs. I wish i could sleep so easily.

This golden retriever by the way is really huge and friendly. Just look at the size of his head. It’s like triple the size of my palm!

God i so love giant size dogs. Now i’m torn between a malamute, a giant shepherd, a giant retriever and a St. Bernard. Which one, which one??… sigh
