Please Give Me a Home

Yet another dog appeared at my house. Well, there are lots of strays around my area but i’ll be damn if i can help them all. I wish i could. There’s one particular male dog we nicknamed Milo and he’s the most playful thing i wish i could take him in but i can’t.

Back to this particular young dog though. We christened her Tiger.

It’s a sad story.

I knew her since she was a small puppy. Back then she belonged to one of my neighbor; a not so responsible neighbor at that because they didn’t cage her or prevent her from sneaking out of the house. She sneaks out of the house very often too since she’s small enough to squeeze pass the gate. Often she wonders to my house and i would layan her for a while.

Very cute.

Then one day she went missing.

That was few months back and the owner didn’t bother to look for her. They took in another puppy.

Few days ago, i brought my dogs to the park near my house and Tiger was there. Now a young dog but i recognized her and so did she, me.

She came over and licked me and played with me like when she was a pup… and she followed me home -_-”.

Now she won’t leave my house. She stays outside my house guarding my gate even when it rains.

The problem is i already have 3 dogs! I can’t even take her in temporarily. So she stays outside under the rain and under the hot sun.

I asked the neighbor whether they could take her in again but they refuse because they already have another puppy.

I’m helping her find a home now.

Anyone willing to adopt a 6 month old female mongrel?? She is spayed so don’t worry (the vet is attending to her right now) and i’ll have her vaccinated.

She’s very friendly and loyal and playful. Barks at strangers so she’s really good at guarding the house.

Please help Tiger find a home.

Ps: The boyfriend made a very touching wish today. It’s his birthday. His wish is Tiger would find a loving home. So i really hope his wish and Tiger’s wish and my wish would come true.

Home Sweet Home

Last night the boyfriend and i had our very first serious chat about our future new home.

We’ve been wanting to get a new place since forever… ok the word forever refers to me rather than him but the point is we never actually got down and discuss about what we liked or disliked and more important of all what are the no-no/prohibited stuff that god knows should not be seen in the house.

For example square shaped bathroom basin. Don’t ask me why but i have a very strong feeling about this. I just can’t have square shaped basin. And that’s not the only thing i feel strongly about.

There’s also the thing with mirrors. I have a habit of avoiding mirrors at night – it’s creepy. So there shouldn’t be mirrors in the house except for the bathroom and inside the wardrobe.

And, and bathroom curtains. I am totally disgusted with bathroom curtains so i shall have a glass divider in the bathroom instead.

There are loads of other weird OCD stuff that we discussed. It was a pleasant surprise to find out how much the boyfriend and i have in common and how similar our thoughts were regarding the new house even though we never discussed this up till last night.

This by the way is my dream home. The interior anyways and the color tone :)).

Home Sweet Home

Mr. Bf is living in a condo but i don’t really like condos. It’s very confined and it’s difficult to clean. He’s at the 4th story but you can’t imagine the dust it accumulates just after one day of cleaning. The higher you stay the dustier it gets. So i demanded that the main window to be closed at all times else i’m not stepping into the house.

The unit doesn’t look like the home i dreamed about but a little better looking than a rented unit. We’ve decided not to renovate it or furnish it properly because i… er i mean we really want a landed property in the future… if we get married. Ok, laugh at me coz i am thinking about getting married -_-”.

Back to the topic, so now the house is like with cheap marble floors that tends to accumulate dirt and hair seems to be everywhere and i have dust allergy which sux. Cheap tiles are really the worst. It’s hard to clean. The kitchen looks like there’s a chemistry project gone wrong in there. Sigh…

I wonder when can we get a new place so he can sell this condo lot off. I already have all the rooms planed especially the library. There will be a tiny DIY workshop for Mr. Bf, separate work rooms for us both (ok, we are weird and like our privacy very well), a master bedroom, and a library. Part of the kitchen will have a glass ceiling for enough sunlight. I have the colors and furniture and deco all drawn in my head. We need to earn more. Sigh…

Ideas of the Holy Matrimony

Yesterday’s night swim was pretty productive. First, i attempted a front crawl and i nearly got away with it successfully before i got distracted by a guy passing by the pool which caused me near death from inhaling too much chlorine water. I’m so sorry lungs. I’m not even sure if the guy is handsome or not. Without my glasses or contact lens, i’m as blind as a bat.

Then i nearly got hitched.
(Don’t understand ar? Hitched means got married lor and happy ever after gua).

Mr. Bf: Ei when you want to get married?
Me: Err…
Mr. Bf: No need to be so scared lar. I’m not pressuring you or anything. Just curious to know what age you plan to get married.
Me: Err… got lar.
Mr. Bf: So when?
Me: Err… scared lar…
Mr. Bf: Scared? If we have separate rooms so we have our own privacy?
Me: I do!
*Then humming the wedding tune annoyingly, i said,
Me: Oooo i think we just got married. I just said “I do!”.
Mr. Bf: -_-”

Isn’t that romantic? Getting hitched while dog paddling in the pool? Muahahahahaha!

Anyways, to me the ideal matrimony is to have perfect privacy. I even drew up a plan of my future home… in my head.

Not that i am desperate to get married lar. You know what i mean? Every girl has it all planned out so guys don’t get so worried alright? We’re not about to jump on you and declare our undying love and conveniently throw in a wedding vows then forcing you to declare the same… unless if we are already hitting the big three O lar *wakakaka! It’s just a girl thing that we do.

Here are a few ideas that’s on the brim of my head.

My wedding ceremony plans:

1) No big Chinese traditional wedding dinner. I seriously don’t get it why we have to spend a fortune on the dinner and consequently be poor for the rest of our life.
2) No ugly wedding make up (Red lipstick, blue eye shadow).
3) Small and simple dinner with nuclear family members from both sides. I stressed on the word “nuclear family” because this does not involved any extended family members (yee ma ku che not invited).
4) Small and simple dinner with closed friends.
6) Typical “ching chun” wedding photos are a big NO-NO. You know the type where you have to pose femininely ala 60′s Chinese actress and the photos will be blurred till you can’t even recognize yourself? No way.
5) Vacation wedding in foreign country such as France. (Local destination is out of the question).

My post-wedding plans:

1) To have small but separate bedrooms and another master bedroom for when we get lonely. *wakaka!
2) If we are a bit well off then separate work rooms too coz i hate it when people are around while i do my stuffs.
3) The point is to have everything separate.

Now, all i have to do is to hunt for a richer boyfriend and more understanding man.
