Surgery Successful!

yesterday was d-day. chewy was brought to the vets for her spaying surgery. realised that the vet was the same one at the bedok south vet clinic. even the receptionist is the same. so odd. wonder do they rotate around the different clinics, or did they both join mt pleasant animal clinic together. i shall call the bedok vets to for dr audrey loi and see if she's there. so weird seeing them both again. dr loi even asked us, whether chewy was on heartworm prevention. if i didn't rem wrongly she was the vet that prescribed the heartworm tablet the other time... haha

it was raining cats and dogs and rats and hamsters and horses and rhinos last evening. had a very hard time trying to get a cab back from the vet's. 2 rejected me because of chewy (too bad for them, this goes into their books and they'll have to answer for it). the last one reluctantly let us in, guessing that our dog wasn't too well... she was very sedated, didn't move much because of she was under GA for the op.

finally got our asses home. fixed her up nicely in the kitchen, for the first time, we didn't have to worry about her tearing up the place, because she was so tired-looking. we went to church for baptism rehearsal from 8-10pm. long long rehearsal. went through every single step of the rite. it's going to be a long 3 hr mass on 15 apr...

then me wents to long bar to meet up with some old friends. had a cosmo and got chatted up by this canadian dork. sigh... which really cut short the evening, as we quickly got up to go because obviously this tourist didn't just want directions. sat on the bench and chatted even more... then finally got home to chewy at 1am. she was awake. looked a bit better (more leng cheng) and apparently ate some of food. so happy.

yeps, she's wearing that collar which prevents her from licking herself. and she keeps bumping into things because she's not aware of the size of the collar. but she's alive, eating well, and hopefully she'll be happier once the collar goes and she can run once more. i love chewy!

Back To Reality

It's over! We're finally married (in the eyes of the Church!). It was really pretty fun last sat, thank God for the sunny weather (a bit hot lah, but at least it didn't rain till after), for the wonderful guests and my fantastic friends. hope it wasn't too uncomfortable under the sun for everyone.

Back Safe and Sound

This is my first post since we left Bermuda for Singapore more than 3 weeks ago. We are battling serious jet lag this time. it might be the age-factor (yikes!) or because we didn't rest properly on the flights (yes plural!) back cos we were busy trying to exhaust all the new movies on krisworld, or maybe a combination of both lah. but both of us have been trying very hard to keep awake at 3pm. yes, the sleep monster strikes at that hour! thank God we are going to remove time saving tonight, so we have 1 less hour to correct this weekend. talking about movies, twilight was amazingly easy on the eye! although i hesitate to call ourselves twilight converts given that i was highly skeptical at first. but the eye candy in the form of Rob Pattersin/Edward Cullen is really irresistible (did you know Rob Pattersin was Cedric in Harry Potter??) .... argh. i wanna get bitten by this vamp too lor! BITE ME! Hao-e even bought New Moon (the sequal) to read this weekend and i spent almost ...

IT JUST DOESN'T FEEL LIKE CHINESE NEW YEAR!

As I learn about everyone's plans to welcome the Golden Tiger Year, the more unhappy I become.  Although it was a conscious effort on our part to avoid being home for the Lunar New Year, I cannot help but feel left out during this all-important holiday. On this island, we have all but 1 so-called Chinese restaurant.  Every year, they would put up the red banner a few weeks before CNY. One red banner compared to the numerous ones back home.  How pathetic eh? There is no atmosphere whatsoever. With the "influx" of Chinese kids, 4 in total plus 1 soon-to-be-born, I made myself pack some red envelopes from home, so that the kids can experience a little of the festivities that I am so used to.   WHAT IS CHINESE NEW YEAR WITHOUT THE RED PACKETS? This year, we've upgraded our celebration to include mahjong!  yes, the mahjong set and table arrived last weekend.  hao-e couldn't stop himself from ripping the plastic cover off those ivory -coloured tiles and we ...
