** Promises To Our Dogs (our family, our children, our companion) **

Photobucket
Before you bring me home, PLEASE REMEMBER - i have a short life of only 10 - 15 years. It will be mine biggest torture should you abandon me

Photobucket
GIVE ME SOME TIME, let me understand what are your requirements from me

Photobucket
TRUST me! This is very important to me

Photobucket
Please don't be angry with me for too long & don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your entertainment & your friends. But, I ONLY HAVE YOU

Photobucket
Talk to me when you are free, even if i still cannot understand your language. But i will understand, because IT IS YOUR VOICE THAT ACCOMPANIES ME

Photobucket
You must know that, no matter how you treats me - I WILL NOT FORGET

Photobucket
When you beat me, please remember - I could bite your hand & crash your bones with my sharp teeth. But, I WOULD CHOOSE NEVER TO HURT YOU

Photobucket
When you scold me for being naughty, stuborn, lazy.. Please ask yourself;- Is my food not enough? Has it been to long since you've let me out to run around under the warmth of the sun? Or is it because im getting old & weak?

Photobucket
When i gets weaker with each passing day, PLEASE TAKE GOOD CARE OF ME. Because, all of us will become OLD

Photobucket
When im going to leave you, PLEASE STAY BY MY SIDE. Please don't say things like 'i have no heart to watch further on..' or 'please let him go when im not around'.. Only with you by my side, i can bear anything unperturbed

Please don't forget - I LOVE YOU FOREVER


** EBI & EMMA are not only my pets, my dogs.. they are my child, my very precious companions & most importantly, they are my family~ ** ("v") them to bits!

(P/S: The Schnauzer on Picture 3 looks very very cute!! I did a random sketch of it during my free time in the office just now.. see below.. hurhur^^ =pp)

Weekends passes quickly..~

Nothing much went on over the past few days & over the weekends..~

Brought the dogs out for yet another night-walk session by the river. Nice scenery, quiet, very windy & relaxing. Awwww, im beginning to get addicted to having night walks with the duos! At least there's lesser crowd, lesser dogs (so Emma can't get to scream @ them) & is more windy so all of us don't sweat like usual. I'm sure Ebi & Emma the walks as much as me too. =pp

On Saturday morning, i went back to work, then back home in the noon to do the housework chores & then cooked HCF again for the dogs. By 4pm i was finally free & started bathing the dogs one by one, with my buddy (the duo's god-daddy) dropping by to assist me in blowing dry them. I think he can be a professional blower now, LOL~ Yippee, he has been more free for the past 2 saturdays to dropby & help (I hope he drops by more often tho, so i could bath Ebi - he blowdry while i go ahead to bath Emma.. By the time im done with Emma, Ebi would have been dried already & i'll pass Emma over to blow-dry while i take go a shower myself) When im done, i'll 'finalise' by giveing them a through brushing & dematting. See, it saves alot of time & effort when i have 'assistants' to help.. Hurhur^^ We were finally done by 6pm & proceeded to Downtown East for my fav. ice-cream waffle @ Gelare. *YuMmYyyyyyyyyyy*

Sunday, Cat & I went over to my Big-Aunt's place @ Hougang as Couzzie Royston is bringing his coming 2-years old baby gal, Maegan over. We fetched my Small-Aunt & Uncle along the way & went there at 3pm. We also brought Ebi along with us so he could play with Maegan. When we arrived, Ebi was very excited as he finds the place really familiar. He kept on exploring the house & made sure he sniffed & checked every corners. The last time he was there was probably during Chinese New Year this year. When Royston & family arrived, Ebi went into hiding coz of the ruckus the others were making when Maegan stepped into the house..aiyOoo, such a timid boy. Tsk Tsk! Anyway, Ebi warmed up soon enough & went to check-out Maegan & the rest of the humans. Maegan was a little afraid of "Ah Bi - as what she calls Ebi" initially, but was soon seen patting him & playing with him. (",)

Then, Maegan went to change her pampers & ran out to the living room w/o having her pants on. Ebi just had to check her out & thus, kept on sniffing her butt & followed her all over the house. Everyone of us was giggling when Maegan ran alittle & Ebi chased after her, as if playing catching. Then she would get so 'gan-chiong' & quickly run to her Mummy's arms. Then when Maegan was playing ball with her daddy, Ebi had been aiming @ the squeaky ball from start (Ebi loves all sorts of squeaky toys!) & was looking for a chance to *strike* LOL. So when the ball rolled under the fish-tank, Ebi quickly ran over to grab the ball & went into hiding, leaving Maegan frowning away. So cuteeeeeeeeeee!! Muahahaa~

For dinner, Big-Aunt fried a big wok of Bee-Hoon with many many ingredients & prepared a big pot of Lipton Tea (Teh-O) to go along. Delicious~~! Meanwhile, Cat & I played Mahjong with my Small-Aunt & Uncle while the rest were lazing around, playing with Maegan & watching TV. Ebi was either sleeping beside my seat or walking around the house & checking out Maegan~ =)) We ended the day @ 10+ with Maegan going home 1st around 9+pm. We bidded farewell & headed home. All of us enjoyed ourselves~ =))

Poor Emma was home with her Granny coz i could't bring her over along with us. She detest babies/children, thus i cannot risk having her to scream into Maegan's face & make her cry later. Sighhh.

Weekends passes especially fast & it's Monday again.. *yawns* (Monday Bluesssssss)!
I'm so looking forward to the long weekend (Aug 8-10) already!! Oh, during this time, we also have Tamy coming over to stay with us for 6 days when Ah Chel goes to BKK, afterwhich we are all leaving for Genting on 14th for a family trip! Yippee yippee, getting all excited!!

It's Sentosa time again~!!!

18 July 2009, off we are to Sentosa again.. YiPpYyyYy~!!

This time round though, is an impromptu gathering organised by Rachel~ She kept on tempting me during our MSN chat which was simply hard to resist. LOL~ I've been wanting to go Sentosa 2 weeks ago & finally, we were able to make it again this time round! Hurhur^^ Thus, I brought along Ebi & Emma to go swimming. Heez~ Rachel & Garry brought Toby & Tamy, I also happens to meet Rachel's friends whom came with 2 dogs;- Toto, the silky terrier & Gigi, the 'mini' jack russell~

6.30am, i woke up to send my parents to work. Then i drove the car back home, pack the bags & stuffs, took a bath & finally left home @ 8.25am to Sentosa. I reached promptly @ 9.00am & waited for the rest to come. Rachel was kind enuff to buy me breakfast from Macdonalds.. YumMy! *muack* =p

While waiting for the others to arrive @ the children's water-playground area, we rested & took some pictures. The duos also met their 1st doggy friend of the day, a very cool & obedient Lab. When Rachel & gang arrived, we proceeded further down the beach & 'parked' there to have our breaky & then, swimming with the dogs.

Play-time & getting to know each other..

3 hrs later, it started drizzling just as we got out of the waters to rinse the dogs & packup our stuffs.. *aRgGhhhh* It didn't rained long though, probably 20mins or so? Soon, the sun was out shining brightly again, after we finished rinsing & towel-drying the dogs. We took turns to look after the dogs while the rest went to bath & change. It was pretty windy too, as the dogs got dried very quickly. By 1.15pm, all of us had left Sentosa & proceeded back home.. (",)

Good thing is, the waters are exceptionally clean today (just like as per usual, except for the 2 previous occasions i was there..) However, i do not like the 'life-guards' on duty yesterday. Previous times i was there, the guards didn't bother about me & other people not leashing the dogs on the shoreline near the waters, as long as the dogs don't run freely on the other parts of the beach. But yesterday, the guards came over twice, to 'remind' me that the dogs can only be unleashed "IN THE WATERS". What the heck! Different beach has different policy?? Guards @ Tanjong Beach says the dogs can be unleashed on the shore @ the sea-line, though not allowed to run free on the beach & even Palawan didn't bother about having dogs running freely on the shoreline near the waters in previous occasions. So, they simply can change the rules anytime they wants to? *HmMpHh* Unleash the dogs when they enters waters, leash them up again 'right after' they comes out of the waters..?? (-_-") I really don't see what the problem is since there was't much people @ the beach yesterday, much less to mention that Ebi & Emma was along the shoreline near the waters or inside the waters most of the time what. Yes, i does agree that TJB is the unofficial 'doggy beach' but somehow, i still prefers Palawan coz of the better toilet facilities, more open-shower areas & the 7-11/ foodcourts/ beach bars nearby where we can easily grab food/drinks anytime. Perhaps, next time we shall stick & go on Sundays instead as maybe, the guards are more.. "open-minded". LOL~

Right after Sentosa, i went to fetch my parents home. Then, i prepared lunch for the duos & showered them myself. *Phew* So tired & my back was aching badly. I was all done by 6pm, finally took a bath & rest b4 heading to my Grandpa's home for another Mahjong session with my relatives again, muahahaha~
