Domestics.

After much persuasion, I'm giving you another try. 

Loving how I could make use of GE2015 to sleep my day away especially to avoid the unhealthy pollution. Each time I allow myself ample time to rest like that, I feel alive again. 

Feeling proud to be part of GE2015:

My friend doing her thing again:

Darling girl just spent the late night with me in the living room just to wait for me to finish watching the election results. How silly:

This is what happens when I threaten my manager I might not come to work due to the intense close fight for punggol east: 

Had a super long day. Just wanna post my new pillow I bought at jb awhile ago. Can't wait to fall aslp with my new teddy tonight! Hehehe Gdnight! 

Sept birthday week

Exclusively invited to kaikai & jiajia' birthday party:

Kaikai with his 8th birthday cake:

I'm quite pissed with jiajia honestly. It took her half an hour when the kids left before sneaking out to eat her cake. This is my very first time seeing her after visiting her for the 3rd time. She was super shy she only showed us her butt in the beginning:

 

However it only took her awhile to see another side of her. You see her throwing her cake & sneezing like nobody's biz I was laughing like mad:

Happybirthdaygranny, how dyou like your flowers i picked for you this time round?:

Aunty brought all the photos albums for us as she wanted to renovate her house. So this was the few I selected: 

I was quite a vain child I've so many photos hehehe.

This was a 21 years gap photo:

Happy 78th birthday, you're gonna live till a ripe old age. Stop being an emotional grandma. Thank you for all that you've taught. I'll always be someone better with the right beliefs & values you've taught me. To understand what's life all about, & to forgive generously. Loving you always. 

I told him not to struggle

We sent him in the hospital & was critically ill. He was just sleeping all the time though we could feel his heartbeat. 

He was hospitalized for several days & his condition didn't get better. His temperature is too low his on heat pack just to keep him going. 

Mummy came to pick me right after work to see him in the hospital. My heart broke.

We've all been sobbing late nights. Silly Debby who usually isn't aware of anything came to comfort me by snuggling me that night when I broke down. She knew smth about Korkor isn't right. 

Didn't go to work for days. Mummy & I visited boyboy but he could hardly walk. We found there were a lot of blood clots in his diapers. The vet spoke to us. She said there was nth much left to help. 

We were told to put him down the day after if his condition persists. & if we could bring him home awhile to say the last goodbye. 

Everyone came to visit him. Uncle told my mum to bring the dog out of the hospital & meet him 6pm sharp. That was the 1st day of 7th month. 

He said he told my ahgong to make a trip down to visit boyboy tgt. Gonggong dotes on boyboy the most. 

Boyboy could walk & drink water on his own that night. The hospital called the following morning. His kidneys got a little better. We brought him home bcos he couldn't eat. Mummy boiled porridge everyday using a syringe to feed. We prepared at least 10 medication to feed him twice a day. 

Mummy was too tired taking care of him. I didn't sleep well for the past days waking up in the middle of the night checking on him. 

My poor baby girl has been neglected & sleeps on her own knowing we were all too tired.

My friends have been with me to keep them updated. Thankyou for visiting boyboy & making trips down for me. I knw the time is almost up. Whatever it is, passing on at home for denzy with us is probably his last wish.

There is no forever.

I remember the very first time, many years back. I found this little pup whom was the quietest amongst the rest when I visited the pet store. 

I was deciding then whether to get a long coated King Charles or a short fur jack Russell. 

This was whom I picked. & my long commitment started ever since. 

I received a call from the clinic just a couple of steps away before reaching my classroom door. My dog's kidney is malfunctioning. 

Then how? 

Then the dog will die. 

My tears starts rolling hiding behind the toilet's cubicle. 

Denzy brought back many memories when we first brought him home. Back then, gong gong was staying with us. 

He objected the idea of keeping a dog, but soon was the one who accompanied & spoilt the dog the most. 

Gonggong looked after him while I was in sch. & then he'll walk the dog to the bus stop where my sch bus will alight me. 

Denzy was really smart. It didn't take long to toilet-trained him. He loves to play just like any puppy. 

His temper begin to show. He knows how to seek "shield" whenever he did something wrong by finding gonggong or my mom bcos he knew he'd escaped the scoldings. 

"不要打它啦" gonggong will say. 

& the dog will become aggressive each time he found his "shield". I had no choice but to walk away angrily. 

He'll grabbed my clothes to the living room. Just to show around how he manage to grab my clothes & only to run underneath the bed when you shouted his name. He's an attention seeker. 

Few nights ago, I was told we don't have much time left. His tumor didn't shrink enough as what was expected. Seeing him suffer was heartbreaking everyday for my family. 

He hates his medicine. He knows in between that piece of nugget was a rlly awful taste of his med. 

He shivers so hard each time we bathed him. We wrapped him with many layers of blanket. & even warmth him with the hairdryer. 

This is my commitment. & I'm responsible for you. I'm doing what I can do best despite my regular routine of work & classes. 

& im holding this commitment to your last breath. 

You're the bravest boy I ever had. 

Happy dimsum off day with my 宝贝爷爷奶奶

Schedules can be as tight as ever. Work & classes can be as tired as ever. It's still ever a duty of a granddaughter bringing out her folks out for some dimsum on a Friday morning.

Table for 7:

Got free food very happy hor?:

Those were the days...:

Rare gathering that my naughty couz could make time for us this early,:

When you balance it well

Sucha rare chance for both my besties flying back at the same time. It's been too long they both met up tgt too. 

Hey puggy, I'm back to visit you:

The other day when boyboy's running fever, mummy took mc to take care of him. This was what she sent me while I was at work:

Finally my folks are back from Shenzhen!! They were so tired from the trip. Gonna bring them to crystal jade for dimsum this week for my off days. Missing them so much: 

(Do not judge my granny's fashion sense. Esp her socks & shoes. Hehehex)

Everyday is a blessing

The bank has been crowding with people lately. I've been scolded everyday all bcos of the SMS queue. Ohwells I'm just doing my job whether or not I understand my customers. Back to coaching new girls again. This time round we've got 3 new girls coming in tgt. I can be coaching 2 of them tgt & managing the queue all tgt. Asking me to teach the girls, asking me to cut short my lunch break just to help out with the queue. Sarah always says, "Sharlene, you need to stop helping. It's always you. & your salary is still the same." Exactly. 

Previously I studied till 4am for my upcoming exams but last min rush down to work once I received a text from my manager that they were super short handed & recalls me back on my off day. I bearly slept enough. 

& now I'm down with fever again. I've got mc twice but I still go to work knowing there's too many new girls & when the queue gets pretty long due to end/start of the month. 

Skip class today cos my fever came halfway at work. Boon says he's gonna get me vitamins from Aussie when he's back. Faith is complaining I've been sick too many times. 

My baobei nainai rang me at the right time. It was a good half an hour chat with the old woman on the phone & complaining how awful my fever makes me feel. Hehehex 

Life of being her pampered girl. Missing that old woman of mine. 

Went for Sulwhasoo's private invitation only for members last wkend & brought along my 2 other aunts which are crazily influenced by me over their skincare. 

& these are our damages after a 2hr session in the boutique that is unofficially opened to the public:

All thanks to my aunts, my skincare is free. Only paid for my own Sulwhasoo facials. Totally anticipating for my appts.

Boyboy has been doing well from his chemo therapy so far. I received a shocking from the other dog owner whom I'm sharing the drugs with my dog, that their dog has passed away last night. I was really shocked & worried at the same time. I thought the dog was doing well & her condition was even better than mine. Unfortunately the dog couldn't withstand the drug & collapsed. 

Never knew how relieved I felt the moment I came home to check boyboy. I'm so thankful he's all fine & this is him having his meal. 

You're definitely a strong boy. I'm so proud of you. Pls continue to stay strong.
