Hoof Prints

Life, how I view it, how unpredictable it is and how it can end up kicking you right in the ass.

I've been really upset the past few days. Non-animal lovers can stop reading from here.

My favourite pony has been taken away from me. Okay, not literally, let me explain. Misty has always known to be difficult. I've worked with her for 4 months, everyday. She has become close to me and we know each other inside and out. Suddenly, this other girl is riding her now because she's shorter than I am. Misty is quite a small pony and my height has never been an issue till recently since Miss A has started asking to ride her.
All my hard work has gone down the drain cos everything that I have taught her, is ruined! I was so bloody angry the first day I saw her riding Misty. But the thing is, its not for me to decide so I can either act like a child and make a heck lot of noise, or shut up and just bear with it. And yes, I admit that I'm jealous as well. ARGH! Its so bloody frustrating!!!

I'm starting to accept my new hairstyle, that doesn't mean I like it.
I was still bitching about my hair to anyone who would listen to me ( Zack) when my brother came home and made it all better. First of all, he didn't laugh, after taking a Looong look, ( I think he was trying to think of something to say) he said" it's not that bad, sort of looks like Elyse ( from America's next top model)"

After hearing that, the hair didn't seem so bad anymore. Till this morning that is.
Like I said, I've never had short hair and those of you who do will know how it looks like when you just wake up in the morning. With long hair it was a lot easier, just pull everything back into a ponytail. I swear, this moment I woke up and looked like I had a bird's nest on my hair. Hair was sticking out in all directions and despite my best efforts, its still sticking out, 2 hours after I have woken up.

I'm considering shaving my head. Seriously.

A Hair-raising experience

I got my hair cut today, and it came out exactly as I wanted it,NOT!
Its so short, I look like a boy, not just any boy, the kind of boy that gets his mom to cut his hair for him kind. My hair is super short, the shortest I have ever had it and its....its... words cannot express how bad it is.
Its not really my hair-stylist's fault. She has been doing my hair for 6 years now and this is the first and hopefully last, big mistake. I told her to cut it shorter, little did I realise that it was already quite short. ( *Note to self, NEVER leave glasses at home when going for haircut)
My only consolation is that my hair grows pretty fast. In the meantime, I have warned all insensitive male species that live with me that should they even dare laugh at my new hairstyle, they'll never see a hot home-cooked meal for a looong time.

If you think I'm going to put up pictures of my new hairstyle, you got to be joking. In the meantime, I'm avoiding as many people as I can.

For Goodness Sake, He's just a dog!

Once again my fellow citizens in The Land of The Wealthy(TLOTW)have shown their strange characteristics.

I was taking Zack down for a walk and while we were in the lift going downstairs, it stopped in on the 7th floor. A lady and her daughter were about to walk into the lift when they saw Zack. I was carrying him in my arms. The lady stopped dead and went " Eeeeee dog, don't wan don't wan, you go down" She grabbed her daughter's hand to restrain her because unlike her idiotic mother, the girl had enough sense to know that a little dog is quite harmless. I explained that Zack wouldn't bite, besides, I was carrying him. She said that he was dirty and didn't want to be in the same lift with him. Fine! So I did what any dog owner would do. I told her " I think my dog is a lot cleaner than you." And I pressed the close button.

You would think that the woman is a rare species, trust me, Zack and I encountered 2 more people like that during our walk. Despite the fact that he was on a leash, they felt that he was a major threat to their children's safety and thus, took great lengths to avoid us. One lady even gave me a dirty look! Hello?! HE IS A POODLE! How dangerous can he be?!

( By the way, this fantastic cake was baked by my colleague. You can see her other yummy cakes here)

Citizens in TLOTW need to wake up and see that we live on this earth with animals as well. The earth does not merely consists of trains, buses, cars and high buildings. In the meantime, there is nothing Zack and I can do about these ignorant people so we've decided to just enjoy our walks and ignore these bloody fools.

I have been slacking around the past few days, just enjoying my own company and the company of my doggy Zack. I blur-ed my face on purpose, didn't want all your computer screens to explode. But now I realise I look like one of those people who appear on Crime Watch. What the heck.

The next few weeks I'll be pet-sitting once again. THis time for Ralph and his girlfriend. So stay tune for more of my pet-sitting adventures. Fortunately its an apartment this time, with only 1 main door so I won't have to climb out windows anytime soon.

Slacker


I'm enjoying my first day of slacking. Slept late, woke up late and immediately started playing computer games. So far, its great! Its nice not having to think about school or work. But I think in about 3 days I'm going to be sick of having nothing to do.

Ralph now has a girlfriend whom he adores.

My digital camera has officially died on me so it'll be a while before I upload more pictures.
