Pet Parade and Faire!

28 10 2008

I went to the Howl‘oween Pet Parade & Faire last weekend! Pet parade = doggies + cute outfits <3


I missed the parade, but it was still good looking at the animals adorned in their costumes. The animals at the parade were mainly dogs, which came in all sizes and characters, but I also saw a spider(!!!) and a tortoise.

We spent about an hour there for my ‘fix’, and I felt happy the whole day after that!

Dad, I bet you love the pictures on this post :) The pictures I took were mainly of animals with costumes, but there were a lot of people with costumes during the event too.

There were also pet themed booths at the faire.

Acupuncture anyone…. I mean, any animals? I am curious how animals communicate with the doc about their problems.

You can also have a potrait picture of your pet


Aaaawwww… Owner and Dog are enjoying the view

The concert was from 12 pm – 5 pm. We were very restless halfway thru. There were some stalls there to keep us occupied. :)





Not awake … yet

13 10 2008

Bad way to start a day.

I set a meeting at 10:30 am with my manager and another manager last Friday.

This morning, I thought the meeting is at 11:00 am. My manager called me and asked me how about the meeting. I replied, “It is at 11:00 a.m.”

And then, the other manager came to my cube and said that we have a meeting now. :S

To make the matter worse, I addressed him as my manager! :S :S

Need to make sure I have enough sleep.

Crepes and impulse buying

5 10 2008

We went to eat crepes recently. They are very similar to pancakes, except that they very thin. Crepes come in generally two flavors, savory and sweet. Having a sweet tooth, I always order sweet crepe. Why am I talking about crepes? Coz, it was so delicious and pretty! Feel like posting a photo of it. :)


Crepe with nutella, banana, stawberries and ice-cream! Yummy! Heart Nutella

I love to walk around Dollar Tree store. It has many interesting stuffs. Although I do not really need some of the stuffs I bought from there, but impulse buying at Dollar Tree is …acceptable… ? Since the goods sold are only $1 each!

I saw this!

 

 

 

A very beautiful pet bed! When I saw it, I was skeptical that it was only $1. However, it should be cheap, since it is sold in Dollar Tree. I was wondering if I should get it. Then, being rational, I continued perusing others stuffs in the shop since I do not own a pet. However, I kept thinking about the pet bed.

In the end, I can’t resist the pet bed and got it. While queueing to ask the cashier the price of the bed, I was wondering what is the maximum price I should pay for the bed (since I do not have a pet). It is only $1!!! :)

Names in various forms

1 10 2008

During school days, I have nicknames like “ham tan chiu yan” and “fa fa”.

During college days, friends calls me “yau nai” and “leng lui”.

Okay, I made up the “leng lui” part. :)

Now, colleagues refer me as “Chuen”, “Chen”, “Chwen” and “Cheun”. Luckily I have not encounter anyone who refer me as “Chun”.

I guess you will have different set of nicknames for different phases of your life.
