coco!
yesterday's lisa's last day in singapore and so the alakazams decide to meet up for our last gathering. we visited our usual haunts - katong laksa and then we perambulated down to parkway where she bought her new handphone, noki a 6300. its a pretty cool and slim phone with all the usual functions, and the best part is its so light and slim it'll fit perfectly even in the smallest of all pockets. one advantage of noki a phone over sony eric sson is that it uses a mini SD card instead of memory stick micro, and micro SD cards are dirt cheap. hence with around 30 bucks u can buy a 2 gb micro SD card and your phone becomes a pseudo-ipod instantly.
anyway, enough of geek talk. we went to lisa's house to chill out, and we're instantly greeted by the barkings of the doggies. the caramel brown one on the photo is coco, the black one is jingle, and theres actually a 3rd one, fluffy, which is either a poodle or a maltese i guess. fluffy's the oldest of the trio ( around 10 years old alr actually) and the most neglected one also since its like the most inactive and coco and jingle are so fat and cute and hyper. which explains why i didnt have any pics of her. :(

shelties are damn cute! they like to tag along with us and follow us around, and they're so fluffy and chubby! they even tried to kiss us haha but no thanks to doggie saliva for me. the rest of my limbs are soaked with their saliva though, i wonder why dogs like to lick ppl so much :S
since it was already around 10+ when we reached lisa's house, the dogs were already alil tired and sleepy, which is good news for us since coco can get really hyper and jumpy if shes high. havent grow out of the puppy stage i guess.
jingle's sleeping on the floor sideways. awwwwwww *cute*
ngiap's pretty tired too. hahaha
the dogs' are pretty smart they know a few commands like sit, shake and roll, though jingle's one lazy bitch who'll lie down when we say shake. hmm if i ever own a dog next time, i think i'll teach it how to fetch stuff. it'll be damn cool lah if your dog can fetch the newspaper from your mailbox early in the morning. but thats not the coolest thing i've seen haha theres this youtube video where the man commanded the dog to fetch him cigarette, then fetch the lighter, then he ASKED THE DOG TO LIGHT HIS CIGARETTE, which the dog duly did! omg it's damn cool lah, although SPCA might have something to say about that.
lisa's the mummy!
sooooo cute.
although theres so many photos of coco, i actually like jingle more haha cos coco is very naughty! its like an attention whore and when we're playing with jingle or fluffy, she'll go jealous and start to nib at them and fight. and this happens almost every other time. she's such a bully! on the other hand jingle's like so tame and mild, and shes so fat and nice to touch! but jingle was really camera shy and so its like so hard to take photos of her
we were so bo liao that we actually played scrabble at 3am in the morning! lisa showed us her true colours - a total scrabble geek and she even read thru the rulebook and brought the giant dictionary!
so around 4+, we decided to bid lisa and the three adorable doggies farewell. i'll definitely miss lisa when she's in australia. though we've only know each other for three months but shes like an old friend of mine alr, and like one of my closer female friends. but at the same time im happy for her cos its gonna be a wonderful opportunity to live and study in australia for four years and shes gonna learn and experience so much more on her own. i wish i could go to australia too, but with the tight budget now its practically impossible. postgrad medicine perhaps?
ah wells, there's still skype and webcam! speaking of which, one more week before i get my LG laptop!
coco-latte!

anyway im still abit bitter that i didnt get into medicine, though not so angsty as i was last time. after much thought these few days, i realised that i really want to become a doctor. so in case my appeal didnt work out (most likely), i'll try to get business + some bio related coure and work very very hard to achieve a CAP score as close to 5 as possible then try to apply for a transfer next year. and lets say if this doenst work out either then i'll just have to try to enrol to the graduate medicine school. its gonna be freaking long like 5 + 4 years but i guess if i know that this is where my passion lies i think its all worth it. but that will be seriously the last resort cos the thought of studying nine years is still damn scary! appeal appeal please go thru and be successful~
