3-in-1
yesterday n today have once again been BUSY at mount pleasant..for the 1st time, i worked night shift on monday n GEEZ! it was busy beyond my imagination..n there were some dificult clients HAHA now i know why everyones so tired after monday nights!
most disgusting case for the day(monday) was this little maltese with a mouth-full of rotten teeth n maggots(yes, they were LIVE maggots) n omg! i pity this little dog! the maggots were living in a hole in his mouth.. the TOP of the mouth (the hard part we can feel with our tongue) had like fallen down n it was erm.. a FLAP.. so the maggots were living in that gaping hole.. sooo SICK! n they STINK! heres a picture i tried to take.. but its V blur =X
maggots n rotten teeth
the big white pieces are the rotten teeth that got pulled out, and the other shorter stubby-looking brown things are the maggots.. killed with chloroform.. in the end had to pluck out ALL of the dog's teeth but i think he would be grateful..better than having rotitng teeth! it went home today, bright alert n happy! who wouldn't be, right? after evicting all the maggots, i think he's gonna recover well =)
ok over the last weekend, went to watch MAMA-MIA with my family, was pretty nice! i lyk the songs haha my sis is currently hooked on them -.-" watched at leisure park..my mum's new favourite movie place coz theres not so many ppl =)
oh n you know those KPE exits? the round grey domes which are supposedly bomb shelters or sth? if you notice, there are murals/drawings on every single one of them now.. the pictures are actually the results of an art competition for this KPE thing.. AND... my sister won something for it!! so we went to take pictures with her artpiece on the KPE thingy (located near leisure park) so cool right! shucks! i shud haf joined also la! HAHAHA
seee it even has her name on it! im so jealous =( LOL!
OKIE n now, back to today, we celebrated Sam's bday at swensens just now.. one day in advance but nvm, its lyk past midnight now, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAM!
yup, thats the 4 of us =D
the cake was SUPPOSED to be v fantastic, highly recommended by one of my mum's friend.. but in the end it turned out rather normal -.-" HAHA but nvm! we had ice cream too, which is always good for me! n went home to watch sam's favourite tv programme of the week, "The Noose" on channel 5.. really quite amusing!! should catch it if u can one day(tues 10pm) =X
my heels are hurting again .. i hate old injuries..

its about this petition of stop skinning of animals(cats,dogs,racoons, etc) for their fur.. n u might not believe it, but this isn't just regular skinning of animals.. its to stop the LIVE skinning of animals.. WTF?! guess where this insanely cruel n inhumane act is taking place? no surprise, im sure all of u guessed right... CHINA.. i hate this u noe..+ all the fake food/milk products.. its damn scary..
oh n erm.. just one warning, u might not want to watch the video on the petition's website(link at end of post) coz its very gory.. n yes.. i found the right word now.. DISTURBING. but im still apalled that such a thing is going on in china... lyk HUH?! i rly dun understand how a human being can do such a thing to a poor helpless animal??? n people r willing to buy this fur products?
ok im sorry for lyk being so loh soh n all but i really cant help it! need to let off some steam.
u noe when we went to south africa, they brought us to this souvenir warehouse sale shop which was lyk souvenirs-galore! but lo n behold! they were selling animal skins as well lar! WTH! i was oso lyk shocked..ivory oso.. but those they were selling were legal in their country.. n all the stupid china men with cigarettes in their mouths were lyk crowding around the ivory products n yelling in their heavily accented chinese..i was so annoyed.
but i got really mad!! coz lyk a few families in our tour group actually bought lyk gazelle n zebra skins u noe.. WTF. n one of them said they had lyk more skins/fur carpets at home.. so sick. wont they feel lyk their stepping on a dead body??
OK enough ranting, PLEASE GO SIGN THE PETITION by clicking here TO STOP LIVE SKINNING OF ANIMALS IN CHINA!!

SCRIBBLINGS
an outlet for my creative juices to flow
MY FAVOURITE THINGS
Rise and shine my dear, my darling,
Sunshine through the window, birds are calling.
Awake from your sweet, sweet slumber,
Your day awaits, with many new wonders.
Cactus plants on your windowsill come to life,
Growing with vigour, they greet you with feist.
Fluffy white clouds sail across the sky,
Look up, look out, as love comes cruising by.
Wear a bright coloured top and your favourite scent,
Matched with a smile and your ribbon headband.
Carry with you some laughter in your heart,
For a little joy would bring you some luck.
The aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafts through the air,
Tempting, tantalising, drawing you close unaware.
A soy cappuccino in your left, an old book in your right,
Spend some time with yourself; blow some bubbles, fly a kite.
Sounds of the sea come together like a melody,
Notes played on the piano, a perfect rhapsody.
Dreamy weekend filled with my favourite things,
And peace fluttering by on white dove wings.
Rise and shine my dear, my darling,
Sunshine through the window, birds are calling.
Awake from your sweet, sweet slumber,
Your day awaits, with many new wonders.

Growing with vigour, they greet you with feist.
Fluffy white clouds sail across the sky,
Look up, look out, as love comes cruising by.

MOON
A pearl glowing luminous in the dark.
Beautiful. Tragically lonesome.
Tear drops glistening as i looked up.
Tragic. Lonesomely beautiful.
Disco ball spinning amidst parties of stars,
Glitzy, smoky, mysteriously enchanting.
Spotlight glaring down on an empty stage,
Naked, forsaken, enchantingly mysterious.
Outside my window, the night sky loomed.
Inky, somber, ominous, enigmatic.
DARK.
Dark against the pearl, my tears, disco ball, spotlight.
As i lust after the pearl so coveted,
I brush away tears undiscovered.
Drifting along under flashes of the disco ball,
I'm shrinking away from the spotlight where i used to belong.
My moon, so bright, perfectly round tonight.
My heart, heavy. Filled with thoughts of you inside.
Your heart, so light, perfectly sound this night.
Your moon, my moon. Our moon.
Your heart, is now her heart. Sweethearts.
My moon. I'll moon. Over you tonight.
my little tribute to the full moon tonight n the mysteries it brings. for what power the quiet night has, that tugs on heart strings, stirring emotions and letting loose inspiration.
MISSION P.C.
“Sssh!” The coast is clear! Sam and Joyce, heartbeats thumping with excitement, miniature drums beating furiously against their chests, hid behind the door of the room. Yet in the background of the heavy rhythm of the drums, there was the hint of laughter, a giggle perhaps, faintly chiming in the midst of all the commotion.
They were on an important mission. Top secret and highly classified. Stealth, speed and skill were the key factors. They had to initiate the machine- technical expertise was called for. Grasped tightly in their fists were the precious artefacts, which they could not afford to forget.
The matriarch had left the premises about 5 minutes ago and the girls had got into their positions without much haste. Silence filled the room, with the exception of that incessant drumbeat and the imperceptible flitter of glee. The curtains were left undrawn, blocking out much of the sunshine from the outside world. In the dim-lit room, the musky smell wafted by each time they inhaled. It smelt of old lacquered wood mixed with that distinctive smell of fresh paper, dappled with a pinch of a metallic scent- ink, they gathered. The machine sat solemnly at the other corner of the room, enticing, anticipating the girls’ next move. So calm and composed it seemed, patiently waiting for something to happen, like the calm before the storm.
The time for action had come. There was to be no delay. They had to get to the machine, activate it, fulfill their task and retreat, leaving no clues behind of their presence, all before the matriarch returned.
“On the count of 3! 1… 2… 3!” Joyce scurried over to the corner of the room, taking cover behind the machine as Sam followed behind, light-footed and nimble, after shutting the door behind her quietly and deftly turning the lock. Nobody had seen them. Good. For how dangerous and risky this was, with the door being slightly translucent. They had succeeded in securing the room. Now all they had to do was to complete their task and retreat.
The drumbeats faded slowly. Having done this before, Joyce took the lead, guiding and instructing Sam as she went along, activating the machine. With the push of a few specific buttons, a green light blinked on and the machine whirred to life. A cheeky grin smirked on their faces, still balled up in their fists were the artefacts. The giggle in the background began to grow louder, their hearts lighter.
Joyce gingerly lifted the lid of the machine, delicately placing the artefact from her hand onto the glistening panel, smoothening it out. She had to make sure the artefact was placed exactly within the specified margins or the plan would not work. After double-checking that everything was in place, she shut the lid with silent confidence. Sam stood close, observing carefully and learning the procedure for it would be her turn next. With a steady finality to it all, Joyce then pushed the big green button. The machine beeped and started to move, scanning the artefact across from one end to the other. Then, with a sudden burst of energy, it began to chug. Slowly at first, then picking up speed, its rhythm most peculiarly irregular yet hypnotic.
The giggle rose up like a bubble and broke as Joyce gave a little quip. It looks like her task was almost completed! Just as abruptly as it started, the chugging stopped and the machine gave out a loud beep, announcing that its job had been done. Breaking into a smile, lips curling upwards to reveal her teeth, Joyce reached out for the document that slid out onto the tray. As she laid her eyes on the result of her meticulous planning, rumbling laughter erupted from her little body as she held it up proudly with both hands, displaying it for Sam to see. Sam doubled over, clutching her stomach. She could hardly believe what she saw. It was like magic! Sam could not help but join in the throes of uncontrollable laughter and celebration of her sister’s success.
There, imprinted on the stark white sheet of paper, was the unmistakable, most humouring thing of all- the perfect print of her favourite snoopy panties!
Joyce and Sam laughed until tears began to form in their eyes as they repeated the process, Sam enthusiastically trying out her first shot at this.
Then came the screeching of the main gate and the grumble of the matriarch vehicle. She had returned. Each holding about 2-3 copies of warm and crisply printed paper in their hands, Sam and Joyce quickly snatched up their prized possessions and “certificates of achievements”, flipped the power switch to OFF, putting the machine back to sleep and dashed out of the study room. In a flash of motions, they quickly stashed the evidence in the secret compartment in their closet and rushed to the living room, plopped themselves on the sofa, turned on the television and acted like they had been watching Powerpuff Girls this whole time.
Still giggling intermittently at the outrageous adventure they just had, it was perfect timing as the main door clicked open and in stepped the matriarch. “Hi, Mom!” Both girls called in that coyly sweet voice of theirs, plastered on their faces were the “ innocent-puppy-eyed” expressions.
With a nod of approval, their mummy dearest carried her bag of groceries to the kitchen and Sam and Joyce let loose their infectious but final bout of laughter. With a high-five to seal the deal, there was nothing more exhilarating and satisfying than a task well planned and executed. What more was there to say, other than- MISSION PANTY-COPY ACCOMPLISHED!
