On days that there were real bad traffic congestions, it would be another half to an hour before my dad was able to make another pass to pick me up.
I guess the more tired he is means the more he misses me.
He loves the attention.
Growing more adorable by the day.
Xiaobao was also tired from watching the baby all day and slept like a log that night.
At least we both get to sleep better after.
It’s chewed gum, so the xylitol content is low. He probably licked some off the paw but the rest was stuck on in the fur. Good thing he got himself to vomit and expel the poison.
There were no phones back in the day so it was tricky for my dad to arrive before I did. So I would twiddle my thumbs while waiting for him and watched strangers who were probably wondering what’s this primary school kid doing loitering there. There were the occasional bullies, both kids and adults, but…
He called himself “Coolman” because his surname is Khoo.
Maybe the cleaner did such a good job that Xiaobao was running towards his reflection in the door.
That’s at least a third of my waking time spent on a bus or waiting for a bus.

I make sure the heater is off so I can’t chicken out and just turn up the heat during the shower.
Did you know that dogs wake up with bad fur days?
It’s faster than making a trip to the supermarket or wet market. And we can hop between the apps to check which offers better pricing right from the comfort of our sofa.

It might be a sign of working from home too much.
Try everything with an open mind. Don’t settle. You’ll know when you find it.

Conversation with my younger self.
He also knows that I need to get work done. So he checks on me a few times and when it’s only when it gets late that he comes to collect me for bed.
I’m just in T-shirt and shorts because the winter clothing is already in storage. At least the blanket helps.
While I understand she probably didn’t want me to be hit by someone who might not appreciate my joke, there are many ways to deal with the situation, especially a young student undergoing a self-discovery process and meant no harm.
Clingy much. But the snoring is pretty soothing. And the random snorts make me chill when I get stressed. Always in arm’s reach for a pet or snuggle if I need some comforting.
I get products or services that I need, and at the same time support them to fulfil their dreams and achieve their goals. How cool is this compared to being just another customer of a big corporate?
Mood.
Nightwish vibes?
If there’s nothing beside him, he doesn’t lift his leg to pee. He just squats with his legs as wide apart as possible cos he doesn’t want to dirty his paws.
We weren’t drenched, but we got a little wet 50 metres before we got back home. It was a literal downpour but we were lucky not to be drenched without an umbrella. Xiaobao knew we were running from something but I decided to scoop him up in case the ground got wet.
We have been testing negative. I’m pretty sure it’s a common cold with the weather blowing hot and cold lately.
Wonder how the tooth fell out whole.
In hindsight, I should have tried to grab the stove right from the start, but then again, it was safer to remove it later because the coaster had melted and fell down instead of being stuck on the pot. Is it safe to clean the cast iron skillet and continue using it?
He walked a lot less than usual, so I’m not sure why he’s so tired. It’s not like when he had his shots a few weeks back and was unwell after. I mean, he’s snoring and grinding his teeth in his I-feel-super-safe sleeping position.
Tested him several times and I can confirm that he recognises the announcer saying “15th floor.”
He refuses to play with the others if I have his fave one in my hand.
That’s brave. Usually he would’ve dived under the bed or sofa.
Some places are placed under lockdown because there are close contacts in the community. But it’s not across the whole city. Most of the news articles I’ve seen are very misleading.
He picks himself up, shakes it off and off he goes again.
He’s three parts rabbit and one part poodle.
He sees well in the dark, just not when he needs to take a step downwards for some reason.
And the occasional growls and yelps. Would love to know what he dreams of. Food? Play?
RIP jeans. But I couldn’t bear to tell the kind old lady.
Food coma hits fast.
I can sense my 5G tingling.
What’s worse than shit? Diarrhoea.
Always wanted Super Saiyan hair.
And then Judy pretends she got hit and he starts barking at me.
The key is to keep pedalling and moving forward.
The cat was so chill though.
It’s hard to keep his fur too long cos it ends up in his bowl when he drinks.
Then again it’s good that he stops jumping at me when I get home.
It’s a love-hate relationship called sibling rivalry.
Or maybe Hunger is a more apt name for this fat dog.
Does it blow your mind that you can make videos with Keynote? 3D animations done in Powerpoint will be mind blasting.
X Japan fans will know the ending in the second frame.
I drink five to six cups of coffee a day.
Princess Xiaobao has a nice ring to it.
Once you go Taobao, you don’t want to shop any more. Ever.
Bobo looks different because of feedback that his male-pattern balding is still in the early stages.
Once you know the zodiac, you can guess the age based on the person’s looks.
It’s the same in Malaysia.
A phone is all you need unless you require shallow depth of field.
Why do they think we are in the killing business?
He still jumps each time he hears a plastic bag rustle.
Maybe that’s why he almost accidentally cleared the uneaten yam pie.
Don’t ask me how it’s done on Android because I have no experience with it, and it’ll probably depends on which version and device you’re using. Update 8 March 2022 This doesn’t seem to work properly with the recent site redesign. The title attribute is also not supported by many browsers and touchscreen devices like…

Maybe no one noticed because of my long hair.
Small dog, big ego.
That’s what happens when people ignore the “No food allowed” signs.
He meant stinging. Of course.
High five if you get the podcast reference.
Our shoes were caked by the time we got off the trail.
It is safe as long as you don’t try to jump off the edge.
So glad for the heated blanket.
It is actually quite therapeutic to ride and shoot like this.
The alternative is to go for some cola but you can’t find that here either!
Because I’m wearing a tag that says “Pharmacist”.
Firecrackers everywhere
They are made of materials that are easy to wash and dry.
The bigger surprise was there were no leftovers.
Perfect for people who love cold drinks.
Time to check out the cost of a telescope on Taobao.
When five different groups come at the same time, light and toss ’em as fast as you can!
And we get to play with firecrackers and fireworks!
The fish are back to normal within two minutes.
Mama, I don’t know.
Housewarmings are pretty big events with lots of fireworks and firecrackers.
Good thing he hasn’t learn the song that never ends.
That’s why I hold onto my camera so tightly.
Omnivores =/= cannibals
This will be such a great event to shoot, and it occurs every five days!
It is light so you can bring it wherever you go.
And I still feel cold.
The only way is to have him checked onto the train or plane, which requires him to have all his vaccines done.
Cities with too many motorcycles should consider banning them and introducing an alternative that is noiseless and doesn’t emit exhaust fumes.
I have like… eyes.
Linctus is a brand!
Pharmacist: Which eye hurts? Patient: My left eye. Pharmacist: That’s the right eye. Patient: No, that’s the wrong eye.
Maybe that’s why the place is called Wan Chai 湾仔. Because of what happens to your knees.
From experience, most customers prefer the bigger D.
You might laugh at “pharmist” but we get it pretty often. I’d say 2 out of 10 customers.
Disclaimer: I have no idea how accurate the online converter is.
Context is so important.
He is so smart that I often think he’s bored. Need to find more ways to stimulate him mentally.
Wonder why I’m so overly emotional and protective of them.
I get a lot of xenophobic comments from the locals, even though I’m almost like them, apart for my nationality and English.
Pharmacists can read minds but can’t stand bad English.
He falls asleep almost as soon as he climbs onto the dino feet.
Dr Huang foot for the cost of treatment himself because he loves dogs and believes each dog deserves better. Here’s to more love for dogs in 2017.
Then I thought of having no one to show the moth to.
Waking up hard in winter.
It’s a cream for mistletoe.
That rat definitely was no chicken.
I’m amazed at my own abilities to understand some of the most absurd of statements.
“Can’t you understand simple English? Eye remover. Removes that stuff on your eyelids.”
The Masamune would have been tempting if my hair was bleached and I didn’t have the undercut.
