I saw snow!!!

I really did see snow on 23.11.08. It was an unusually cold night n suddenly at midnite around 2am, small freckles of snow fell. At first, I thought it was raining but when I looked properly, it was actually snow. Being so excited, Amanda and myself ran downstairs equipped with my camera to record it down.

It was not really easy to catch it on video because the flakes were too small. But after an hour, the flakes became bigger and more visible. Both Amanda and myself were really excited and happy to witness it. We told our friends about it which many of them just shrug it off saying we are MAD!!! Hehe.

Anyway, forecast says its gonna snow again maybe on Monday or Tuesday. Guess I am gonna have a White Xmas after all!!!

White Christmas??

This is the first year I'm gonna celebrate Xmas away from home and my friends. Downloaded some Xmas songs and it makes me wanna cry cos it reminds me again how much I miss home. How much I miss my friends in Malaysia.

Not sure what are the plans this Xmas. Maybe just a simple party at my place with a few of my colleagues. Wonder if it will snow here. If it does, it would be my first ever white Xmas. I am looking forward to it.

A bit early to wish all my friends but all the same , Have yourself a Merry Xmas and Happy New Year!

WHY?

Sometimes I wonder to myself, why can't we escape from the 'we-are-buddies-but-backstabbing' friends. How much can you get from doing such hurt to others? I always believe,what goes around, come around. To bring one up takes so much effort, but it definitely does not take much to bring one down.

We live in a world where we confront people everyday. Is it so easy to forget that we can't live alone on this planet? We may look independent but the truth is, no one can survive alone. We need friends, we need loved ones, we need someone we can talk to when we are happy or when we are sad.

For me, I treasure all my friends and loved ones. They are the ones that kept me going. They are the ones I run to when I have happy news to share with. They are the ones I go to when I need a sympathetic ear or a shoulder to cry on. That's why they are very important to me.

No doubt, there would be some that I don't really fancy so I try not to have so much in common with them. It's to avoid any conflict or hearing anything that I would not like to or being forced to participate in any discussion that may hurt my friends.

I always tell myself, by bringing others down to make yourself look good or feel good, won't bring you far. One day, just one day, the same thing will come around and hit you. It will hit you hard and you will fall hard. That's called, Karma.

My puppy, Moka

My dog,Bobo just gave birth to 3 puppies 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately, 2 of them died and now left this one who we named Moka. He is one fat puppy and always feeding on mummy. Furry little thing with huge eyes like daddy, Richie. Wish I am home to cuddle this small fella. I love my furry friends because they are a real good companion. They know if you are sad, they know if you need company, and they share the joy when we are happy.

I remembered around 2yrs ago, Bobo was pregnant but she had a difficult pregnancy because she had uterus infection. When the babies were due, she couldn't even lick the pouch enveloping the puppies away. I had to help her deliver the puppies. I was so worried that I cried the whole night. Usually after giving birth, she would go out and do her business and look for food and water. But this time, she just laid still there. I couldn't take it and sent her to an animal hospital crying all the way there. She had to be hospitalized for a week before discharged. She gave birth to 7 puppies that time but unfortunately, none of them survived. I cried when one died and burying them.

Imagine how worried I was when my brother told me Bobo is pregnant. I do not want history to repeat itself and worst part is I'm not there! I was overjoyed when I heard Bobo gave birth to 3 pups but my joy was shorlived when I was told one of them died the next day followed by another 2 days later. I called home n tell my mom to go get some milk powder for pups from the pet shop fearing that the pups might have died because Bobo does not have enough milk.

As day goes by. I was praying that the puppy would survive and be healthy. I asked my brother to update my regularly on the progress, which he did diligently. My bro told me, he is a very fierce pup. If you disturb him during sucking, he will make noise. Oh, how adorable.
And now 2 weeks later, he finally opened his eyes. OOOO... I really wish I am there!!! To cuddle the fella and hold him in my arms.
Moka with Mummy

I bugged my bro and sis to send me more pics of him. I would look at his pics everyday. My bro decided to call him Moka , for some reasons which I do not want to disclose but I think its a nice name and suitable.
Moka being adorable

I told my daddy, I want to keep this puppy because when I am back to Malaysia, he will come live with me in my new house. Hehe. I don't care!!!

You will sure love my Moka when you see his picture. He is like a furball! EEEEEEeeee.... GERAMNYA!!!
Don't blame me for being cute!!!
