3 years ago, we found her on display for sale somewhere in Tawau. As I was meaning to get my mom a dog for companion (since my siblings and I had left the nest) and that little golden brown colored dog looked so attractively cute, I decided to get her.

A female Finnish Spitz only a month old, my dad decided to name her Girly since she looked so girlish sans the need for acne treatments in future (LOL).

Now 3 years later, Girly is like the best thing that ever happened to my family.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRLY!!!

Love, C

She’s actually my kid-sister.. I used the word aging just to make her feel older. Hahaha!

It’s her birthday today so here’s a card (since I didn’t have the time to go out and buy a traditional birthday card…):

Sorry lar Dym ar.. it’s a recycled birthday card I made for you 2 years ago. :-P You know how busy I am these days, right? Coming back late at night for 5 consecutive days, overworked, exhausted blablabla.. that I wanted to make use of my weekend with sleep, sleep, sleep and more sleep. But in a way, it’s good to recycle, you know? Saves energy. Hijau.

We’ll probably have a small family dinner tomorrow – let’s see what our big brother have in mind. If not, I might buy you a bottle of tan lotion since you walk under the sun everyday to your work place. :-P

Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY dearest sister. May God bless you with all the good things in life ALWAYS.

“Love, I don’t like peeling onions. They make my fingers stink and they stay for like ages!”

“Oh, that’s not a big problem, baby,” he said. “I can do that.”

“I’m also not a very good cook.”

“But I am,” he informed me. “In fact, I have a better plan. Why don’t I cook and you prepare the rest, except for the onions part.”

“Deal!”

He came back from work.

“Is everything ready?”

“Yes, the chicken are cubed. The veggies are ready. Rice is cooking in the pot.”

“..where are the onions?”

SIGH “Didn’t we agree that you’ll be doing that part?” I lamented, shaking my head.

“Those are easy job, you see..”

Our conversation goes the same almost everyday. It’s always the onion and garlic and ginger part. But of course, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love me. Only he forgets sometime. Men. Even if you ask them to sign a private placement memorandum, they wouldn’t know what the thing is for. lol

PS: I still love you, Jaya, no matter how forgetful you are! :-P

Translated as: My house, my heaven.

My fiance and I had moved into my brother’s beautiful apartment while we search for our own ‘heaven’. Today would be our 2nd day over here and already we’re feeling very at home. He he. I think the house’s feng shui is pretty good for me too. I’m saying that because I just got a few extra assignments today and that means more $$$! Maybe now I can start planning for that new york vacations, ey? :-P

By the way, I’m not the only one feeling at home here in my brother’s place. The cat is enjoying himself as well.

He prefers the balcony more than the living room as compared to our previous house. Maybe he likes the wind (it’s very windy at the balcony) and the sound of the bell coming from the school nearby la.. whatever it is, I’m so glad he enjoys every moment of it.
