This morning as I was turning out from my carpark, after checking there is no oncoming traffic I stepped on my accelerator only to be greeted with the butt of a woman!! I jammed the brake and stared at her butt as she bent over to pick up a bird from the road.
I assume the bird is unwell cos it seems to be in serious need of feathers and when the woman dropped the bird on the grass patch, it didn’t even try to hop away. All these while I watched in astonishment and am just glad I didn’t step hard on the accelerator.
Really not in need to be in the headlines tomorrow — “woman killed by car when saving sick bird from road”.

> Xmas gathering with the poly gang was at Small Boobs’ new place. We now have 2 kids to entertain and I was totally exhausted by end of the day, tortured by the kids, and one hasn’t started walking yet, wait till THAT happens. Ash was totally spoilt by the aunties when she received PRINCESS stationery set, PRINCESS book and PRINCESS watch (no i did not get her anything PRINCESS) for her Xmas presents. I highly suspect it would be everything Thomas & Friends or Bob the Builder for Travis next time. HA. Over the top aunties.
> Watched NYE fireworks at our usual place and with all the shouting and laughing at dinner, I woke up on first day of 2010 with NO VOICE. Everyone found it amusing, except me. Those who called me on mobile that day — not funny.
> Attempted to clear my leave (for the first time in my life) during the last week of 2009, at first I thought it would boring cos I would only be staying in S’pore, but it did not turned out too bad. Shopping, movie and eating on a weekday afternoon is fab. The only 2 downsides were the malls were packed like weekends (cos 10,000 others are not at work as well) and I fell sick from first day of leave and is STILL coughing now. =(
2010 HUAT AH!!

Last night was 冬至 (literally mean: winter reach), which according to mom is a festival of greater importance than CNY. So per Chinese tradition we are to have dinner together and eat 汤圆 (dumplings). Mom bought the old fashioned glutinous rice dough in pink and white and we rolled our own汤圆. It really gave my arm a good workout cos they started aching when I was half-way through the rolling. End product was YUM!

Early this morning I was near the staircase outside my house when I hear this scratching sound “shashasha”. Popping my head suddenly onto the corridor I saw this:
Not a small dog right but so suddenly I appeared I gave the dog a shock and he did a little jump. I almost LOL but I held back cos I was afraid he would bite or bark at me. Paiseh mah you know.
After he did the little jump he started sniffing the plants outside my house while peeping at me, it’s as if he was trying to pretend he’s fine to hide his embarrassment. So demure for such a big dog.
I’m sure all of us have managed to surprise (read: shock) someone somehow or rather, but have you surprised a dog and had him do a little jump?
I consider this an achievement. HAHA!!
