It's confirmed. Mozzy (a.k.a. Bowie) is missing. On 20th July 2012, some time between 5-9pm, somehow it just happened when her human family went out for dinner, to return to find her gone just like that. Why?? She just turned two on the 7th this month. Hope that someone kind has her, and that she'll continue to live a good, happy life.
Dejavu much. Canon disappeared when he just turned two years old not long as well 5 years ago. It was also evening, but he ran out (the spoilt dog), taking along his 30cm leash with him. Well, whatever happened happened. Had been hoping that he's in good hands all these years.
They say only those who make a change in your life stays in your heart always, even if they are not physically around. Well, they gave lots of memories and a huge impact alright. Haha. I miss them.
Example 1:
When coming up with a funny memory and laughing by yourself in front of others. Or laughing at a friend who is laughing at himself without knowing why he's even laughing. But it's the part where the sudden laugh out of random moments make things funny. Case:Chris telling about his first (and last, according to him) bungee jump, where he stood there for 5 minutes, getting ready to back off, until a friend gave him a word of encouragement with a slap on his back. Feels like I'm seeing a drama happening at the back of my mind. We die a million times before we really die. Hehe. It includes those heart attack moments like doing extreme sports, looking down from the 17th floor when you're afraid of heights, all files suddenly deleted with important assignments in the thumbdrive, breaking something important of your Dad's and just waiting for him to find out before you're doomed. Yup, our lives are miraculously strange and cute and amazingly weird.
Example 2:
When asked to read from the lecture notes by heart, and realize that nothing's funny but yet still seems funny which makes it even funnier. Hmmm, I'm weird. Case: Written Discourse class, where I read (the words underlined below) "And specialized technologies, and laying eggs." Misreading, my mind goes "Laying eggs?" I actually find making no sense out of the no sense funny =x .. I'm making no sense myself.
Very the cold, very the lame. Makes me think back Form 5 though, where Madam Chen (Is it Madam Chen? Or what was her name again? Crap) was giving an example of "He fell for her", where me and Chan bursted out laughing, taking the 'fell' word literally.
Example 3:
Comics =]
Case: Besides watching TV 8-11pm every night now, thanks to Astro on Demand and those Hong Kong drama (yay!), I hang on to Calvin and Hobbes everywhere. Being thankful to be the proud owner of 5 thick Calvin and Hobbes books, yeah, the script's hillarious x)
I feel lame for laughing at things that aren't suppose to be funny. I laugh at my lameless, and I laugh because I actually laughed, and am laughing =P
Last minute thought: Memories of Films and Arts Appreciation with the Foundation people =D
Found a video, Youtube says its no longer available. Why?? So, well, the lyrics/cut off edited parts will do. Hmmm, still think that the original scene is funnier though =p
"Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish wolfhound named Belker. The dog’s owners, Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle.
I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn’t do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.
As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.
The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker’s family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away.
The little boy seemed to accept Belker’s transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker’s death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.
Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, “I know why.”
Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I’d never heard a more comforting explanation. He said, “People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life – like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?”
The six-year-old continued, “Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay as long.”"
