vodka! vs. squeeky the ball

my handsome boy

at last. vodka! got his first shot. i was so anxious as previously brandy succumbed to the vaccinated and was afraid history repeats. according to vet, it's a case of 1 in 1000. :( i guess brandy was really unlucky.
he was praised so much by the vet. even called him handsome boy! ha ha. but what a shocked he had when the needle pricked him. well, he was a good boy. just yelped once :) and confirmed he is a giant puppy. he weighed 7.3 kg!! nearly as heavy as bronte (which was around 9kg).
got him a puffer like ball with a squeeky whistle when pressed. fun to see him start playing with it. at first he was taken aback with the spikes ... then when he know how to bite it, it was a squeeking fun time. he even know how to make different squeeks now :P

favourite cendol haunt

love the cendol here. the owners are also friendly chaps. those who wants to try nyonya laksa should stop by this shop too as they have varieties of laksa and tasty too. i used to makan this auntie laksa when i was young where her shop was nearby my ah-ma house. after laksa, you can wash down the spicy food with the deliciously real gula melaka laced cendol. they have a bottle of gula melaka that you can top up if u fancy. i always did. very sweet tooth i have. they also have some nyonya kuehs which is worth trying. the shop itself is a delight. little treasures in every corner.

tip : go early as parking is hard to get. take a leisure walk between the narrow streets. it's a pleasure especially for first timers in malacca.

a-ma scorecard : 8-0!

my little GIANT pup (3 months old)

bo ta po pheng you?

i'm so looking forward to balik kampung and especially for my granny 80th birthday bash tomorrow. however this could also mean one thing - facing the wrath of all my grand-aunties,grand-uncles, aunties and uncles snoopy behaviours.
these will be some of the questions coming my way :

"ta po pheng you ler?"

"bo ta po pheng you ar?"

"ge be oo ta po pheng you ar?

"kan chew beh?"

then some bolder relatives will tease my patience :

"ti si ai kah win ar?"

"ti si ai chia wa chiak chew?"

and the worst :

"ti si li lau bu eh sai po xun?????"

tao tia. pengsan.

sky..

please do not PANIC!!

ha ha. sorry. but i cant help myself by putting that title. yea. we had safety and security exercise, cymex 1 today. it's some emergency evacuation drill in case of some disasters e.g. terrorist attacks, fire, etc. personally i find it is a great drill.

however ... does the government need to spend the citizen tax $$$ by having a launch for this exercise?? i mean amazing! daily we were told to economised electricity, water, fuel, whatever. and here we have an emergency drill with all the pomp & pageantry & dignitaries to launch it in mdec. haiz.

anyway, back to the drill at my company. at first it was fun and loud- siren and all. thank goodness for the tents else we will be rentung in the hot sun. hey! they even distributed mineral water to us. hmm.. is there where our lavish ad&d budget has gone to? .... then we were left stranded there for more than one hour! i mean. it's just a drill. do it and get over it. haiz.

in my opinion. although drills are exellent way to prepare us, i still think without discipline, when disaster strikes, pandemonium will break loose! come on. we are malaysian. we are individualistics. "me first!" ha ha. so u think the fire marshalls will wait for all the staff to line up like good gals and boys? hey no offence fire marshalls.

my point is. drills are ok but more need to be done for minimum casualties in any emergency evacuations.
