Dog owners. :))


I remember 2 years ago just before i started uni, an adorable silky terrier ran into my house and I was exhilarated. My brother didn't fancy it much but I did. Mum said if noone asks for a missing dog we could bring him in. After waiting for the whole morning, I went out to buy some pet stuff but I was disappointed when my brother made it his mission to look for his owner and he did. So i didn't have a dog. It was fine because i was really busy after school started and noone would be home to look after a dog.

Mum had been putting the idea of a puppy up in my head when I was in Edinburgh. I was skeptical because i thought she just wanted me home quick. Well, she thought i looked less than my chirpy self eversince the semester started too.

Last night I was told of the good news! I'm gonna have a puppy! Dad placed the order & mum's gonna bring her home in a month's time when the puppy had enough of her mummy's milk. :)) Let's hope all goes well. It's a mixed breed so i wonder how she would look like.
+ = ?
I've always always wanted a pet so can you imagine how excited i am? Yippeee!

Taggee


Evelyn, the tagger has tagged me, the taggee to do this tag thingy.

I can't cut and paste the instructions but it's just about the taggee writing 10 little known facts/habits about himself/herself & tag another few others. No tagbacks! :)



Here goes,



1. I have a bolster often dressed in pink or batik and my bolster went everywhere in Europe with me. Plus my bolster is ferried from hall to home and back all the time. Of course we sleep together. You can say we're practically married.


2. I always thought i had a nose too big and thighs too large, not to mention my tummy.


3. I do not eat durians. I'm Singaporean.


4. When i was young, I wanted to be a smart and successful yet ah-lianish/bimbotic pretty lady. Just to show others that pretty ahlians/bimbos can also be smart and successful. Of course I could never figure out whether i'm an ahlian/bimbo/tomboy/whatever. Probably whatever.


5. When i was young, I would pretend to be a teacher to my younger neighbours and even my soft toys. They were all terrorized.


6. I love being driven aimlessly in a car with familiar songs and everyone listening or joining me in singing aloud.


7. I visit the old patients in IMH. Less frequent nowadays.


8. I am almost always out with concealer because i always think that i am un-pretty.


9. I am VERY temperamental. Very nice and very grumpy and very depressed.


10. I enjoy Art. I paint, draw and love crafts.


So now I tag yiwen, key, shiping, audrey, shoonghong & alvin. :))


Damn i have a 8am lecture tomorrow and 3 tutorials.

The hunt for books.


Cheap cheap cheap. Everyone wants a piece of the second books at cheap prices. When it's 25bucks then you would wonder if it's better to buy a new book with a few dollars more or to photocopy it and get it unhighlighted?
Well, i've found a better avenue to buy my books. From other schools. Honestly, NUS students sell their books at too high a price.

Enough about me and my thrifty manners. I think i've gotten a scare out of my SEP bills and the angsty built-up from the unfair treatment of being allocated lesser allowance even though edinburgh is the 2nd/3rd most expensive city in UK. *grunts*


Watched a Singaporean play with mum and aunt. It's really enjoyable because the songs were all by liang wen foo and they were all so heartwarmingly familiar. :)) Really wanted to sing along aloud! :)) Although london musicals are more elaborated with beautiful costumes and stages, I really find local musicals delightful too. It did remind me very much of our hall production. It would be liken to western hotel restaurant, chinese restaurant in singapore and hawker centre. They have their own unique brand of taste, equally tantalising at different times to different audiences as well as equally boring to others at other times. It makes me wanna write a script for a play, be the actress of a play and watch another play soon. Teehee.

After moving to blogspot, anyone knows how i could move all my entries from blog-city to blogspot easily? :) (i doubt.)

Uniquely yours


It took me a whole afternoon just to figure out and design this whole template. Finally, i am able to use blogspot! No longer a nitwit in this whole blogger shit. Damn, it took me a long while.

That's me walking away into the gloriously beautiful sunset in Loire Valley, France. Is your cup half empty or half full? Am i walking away from all that ugly mess i've created or am i embracing the awakening of a brand new dawn? I'm certainly hoping I pick myself up quickly and move along. I often feel i need a hand but ultimately, I know i have to do it alone.

Anyway, i wanted to have the blogname unique dominique but decided not to be too obvious with names so i chose Deliciously Ordinary Memories. It sure sounds better than DirtyOldMan.

With a new start, may good things start budding & blooming! :))

My favourite photo! What gorgeous contrast!
