Cheongsam Galore!

We finally met up on Sunday after many failed attempts to do so. BFC, Shades of Pink and I.

They came over to my place to see the new room. BFC brought along 3 cheongsams made in Shanghai for me to use as a teadress, because I mentioned that the bridal shop had really cheena obiang teadresses which I would not be caught dead in!

BFC: Ok, you try. I can't wear them anymore.

Purples: You cannot then you think I can ah? Siao

BFC: You just try first la. I think you can. Cannot fit then don't squeeze la. Don't split my cheongsam.

So I tried one on and it fit. Surprisingly. So I asked BFC to try one on and show me why she says she can't fit into it. She actually could la. Then she said, "Eh since we're at it, why don't we get Shades of Pink to wear the last cheongsam, then we take a picture together?"

And that was what we did. We interrupted RT from his soccer match to take a pic for us. (You should have seen the "what are you girls doing?" look on his face)

13 years ago, we did silly things like that. Now, 13 years later, we're still doing rubbish things. Sheesh.

But it's quite fun you know. Babes, we can share clothes!!!

Shades of Pink, we ALL need to unzip AND unbutton the cheongsam before it can come off. Nothing to do with you being fat (which you're not). I can't believe you tried to remove it with the buttons on!

Can You Give Her A Home?

Just about 2 hours ago, while leaving for home from Kayestercan's place, my cousin WT found a labrador rummaging through Kayestercan's trashcan. Her mum scolded the dog and it sheepishly crouched down with its face between its paws. The scolding immediately became, "Aiyoh, so cute!" Believe me, she was really cute. And she was lost.

RT, WT, Kayestercan and I gave it some food and water and brought it around the estate, hoping to find its owner. But it was in vain. I called the SPCA (I don't really have a lot of faith in them, but I didn't have much choice) and they told me that I could take the dog down to the pound if I liked. "But we don't reveal the fate of the dog", the guy told me over the phone. "So once you send it over, we have the liberty to do what we deem fit".

RT and I were about to send the dog over when we spotted a police patrol car. We enquired if they could assist with the lost dog. So they called their supervisor and in less than 5 minutes, we had another patrol car arriving and 6 policemen fussing over the dog. (Nice to know that there is still some compassion for animals). They called the SPCA and they agreed to send someone over to pick up the dog. (Now I'm wondering how it is that when I called, I had to bring the dog over? Hmmm). But never mind, my concern was that the dog gets fed and has somewhere to put up for the night.

We waited for the SPCA guys to come, which they eventually did after about 25 minutes. Like the said, they will not reveal the fate of the dog, so I sure hope that SPCA at least puts in some effort in keeping her alive till she finds a good home. Apart from some huge ticks (which I've removed) and a few sores which it probably got from sleeping in the open for the time she was lost, she looks like she's in tip-top condition. She even listens to commands like "Sit" and "Come". You don't even need a leash to take her for walks; she follows alongside you.

She was found around Dalvey / White House Park estate. She even has a collar so I'm sure she belongs to someone. So if you know anyone who's lost a labrador in that area, do get them to pick her up from SPCA. Or if you know of someone who wishes to adopt a Labrador and can care for it, do let them know of this one that's just gone to the SPCA ok? I leave you with some pictures of her.

Here's a picture of her collar. It says "Bucklebone" on the bone-shaped clasp. Will the owner please come for her? I sure hope she wasn't abandoned. So if she was lost, at least call the SPCA or something to TRY and look for her right?

Oh and if you go to SPCA and can't find her, let me know. I will personally call them to demand an explanation. I mean, the dog looks to be in perfect health. The least they could do is put it up for adoption right?

I just spoke to a friend and when I mentioed that she's in SPCA, he went, "Oops. There goes the dog." I hope there's no truth in that statement.
