my sweetie pie

apart from my nan ren’s laptop annoying the hell out of me being all laggy and unresponsive, im actually having quite a peaceful night. am at my nan ren’s place, he’s slping on the couch while im typing away with my sweet little charcoal slping on my belly. :)

the sweet little pumpkin brought a smile to my face just about 5 mins ago. not sure what was ‘wrong’ with him but he was unusually sweet and stuck to me after i gave him a bath. i was on the couch playing Bejewelled on my itouch and the little one just jumped up and sat beside me. i lay down on the couch so that i could play my itouch more comfortably and put him on my belly still. then, he crawled up to my face and started kissing my face. hahas. apart from the tickle and standing hairs, it was really sweet. oh, anyways, what was really adorable was that while he was busy licking and cleaning his paws, he got so tired that he closed his eyes and fell aslp right there and then. i watched him through this whole process and i was kinda in awe. hahas. he didn’t even shift his position like what he always does to feel more comfy. he just shut his eyes and slept. :)

oh, and one more thing, i have a nickname for him. he’s the mexican jumping bean. the other night, he was jumping and pouncing away on this new rat toy that my bro’s gf bought for him. he got so fascinated by it that he got so hyped up and my bed turned into his trampoline. he did somersaults, 360 degree turns and other crazy stuffs. hahas. the little jumping bean got so excited that the poor rat lost quite an amount of ‘hair’ and it’s MIA now by the way, not sure where it went after char played with him yesterday.  hurhur.

have been meaning to post a picture of char here, but have not managed to take a perfect picture of him due to his hyperactiveness and inability to stay still. arghs.

alrights, i gotta end here, gotta lend him my hand for him to support his head while he slps. tata and goodnight :)

seriously people…

what’s the fuss about Ris Low? I’m really surprised someone like this has generated so much buzz.. IMO she is not even news-worthy, for god’s sake, there are many other more meaningful and interesting things to feature, so please, don’t let me see, hear and read about her no more….

Alexander McQueen was simply genius, who thinks of such a design? Such a pity the talent is not around anymore.

Here’s his Atlantis Plexi Clutch:
