--- after office hours ---

Apr 23, 2006

Alright, I broke the promise to myself to not post anything throughout the exam period.
I am blogging for my loyal fan too, who is now, dunno where. Msg her and no replies till now.
Disappeared? Like Carol in the 9pm show?
3 papers down and I am left with another 3.
One on Monday, which I just finished reading and labelling.
The final core on 26th and then my NOT slack GE on the 27th.

Then I will be free!!!
I promised Elmo I will bring him out on Thursday.
He has been accompanying me everyday in the music room throughout this whole exam period.
So far so good, except that:-

1) He peed on my face once.
2) He peed on the sheets.
3) He humps the gf after dinner almost everyday.
4) He plays with his baby teeth that drops after some tugging game with Daddy or me.
5) He drooled while sleeping once.

That's about it. Nothing much.

Elmo is now a licenced dog and he will get his tag from the AVA in about 3 months time...That's a short time, considering the people working on the tag has to do some serious consideration as to who to vote in the coming GE.
AVA told me to pay in like 3 days..and the tag takes 3 months???????

Besides having an AVA tag, I am going to get him a personalised tag. Will post the picture up once I got it..coz I cant decide on the design now.

Amanda told me to stop spendin so much on Elmo...I know I shouldnt, but....but...everything seems so tempting. Whenever I go out, and I have to kp him in the playpen, I just feel sad. Sad that he has to be alone at home. I wonder what will happen when I am not around. He will be alone for 8 hours everyday. 8 hours!!! I've got lotsa experience staying alone at home for 8 hours, or even more than that, especially in the last few years, where I have to forbid myself to leave the house, and sit at home to study for exams.
The feeling is horrible. Moreover,the poor boy has to stay in the 1X1 metre playpen. I will die if I am in his shoes.

So when Mummy proposed that she can bring Elmo to work everyday, I felt really relieved. He will have so much fun out there, coz he's always the star when he goes out, with his dashing looks. Hehe...
And therefore, I bought him the following toys from petedge. They dont really cost much. I am just doing as best to reduce the amount of boredom and his biting urge since he is teething.

And I thought of getting him another dog as company, but I dont think it's a good idea, coz he's not even here for 1 year. At least a year before another dog. hehe. This time, I will get it myself. I do not want those stupid and unnecesary misunderstandings anymore.

Money is the root to all evil. People, please remember this. It destroys everything.

But anyway, there's no harm in thinking about what dog to buy.
On the top of my list are Toy Poodle, Mini Dachshund, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel or Mini Maltese or just normal Maltese.

To Amanda: I have a little confession. I did what we are supposed to do at the airport todae. Hehe, when's ya turn? Or have you been secretly doing it in your room? HAHAHA.
I was looking at him and I just couldnt control. You were right, he will be one of the main factor of consideration regarding the big thing....hehe...

Elmo's going for his second grooming tml and the groomer is coming to collect him and return him when he's done.
When I told Mummy about it, she was like "Can trust or not?"
I said,"Can lah."
"Later she see Elmo so cute, she dun wan to send him back,how?"
I was like . "People got 2 dogs at home leh...Why want to take Elmo."
And then she left the room.

The next morning when I woke up,she asked me again. "You really trust that person ar?"
I said, "Ya, she herself got 2 dogs leh, I dun think she want another one, will return de lah, dun worry."
And she replied," But Elmo so cute leh, later she dun want return."
HAHAHA...Mummy loves him so much. He is the apple of the family now.

Mummy has come up with a list of questions which I am supposed to ask the groomer, with the most impt, how to get rid of his tearstains.
I was like, "Aiyah, sure will tell you to buy this and that de lah."
Then she said, " Then buy lor. If really good, then buy."
"You buy this buy that. Already bought him the bright eyes drops liao, still buy."
And then she said," 要养就养到最好，不要养就不要养。"
I smiled.

Aint I just contradicting myself?
Who's the one who did online shopping for Elmo?
Who's the one who purposely took the bus to some ulu pandan shopping centre to buy his kibbles?
Who's the one who went to so many supermarkets just to look for goat's milk powder?And not to mention the higher price.
Who's the one who is making him a tag?
And, who's the one who is proposing to go all the way to Pasir Ris to 'visit' Pets Megamart, to see if there's anything to buy for him?

I am sure you guys can tell me the answer.
Haha.
I shall end here.
