Happy - My new commitment in life. Story of an adopter...

On 31.01.2012, I officially adopted my cousin's 4 year old Jack Russell Terrier. He had to give him up as the place he was moving to could not keep a dog.

To be honest, it was a hasty, whimsy decision (as are many of my decisions are based) and I didn't think it through fully, nor was I given a lot of time to think it fully through. I always wanted another dog after my first dog (3 month old golden retriver) had to be given back to the dog farm within less than a week of my ownership.

Sure I knew JRT's can be a handful and the feedback received from everyone has been unanimously similar - "Very hyper, energetic dog. Good luck!"

Happy (his name) has been under my care for 12 days and it sure has hell hasn't been easy. To my surprise he is very attached to me from the get go. And to be honest, it's still too early to tell. I have to constantly remind myself to give me a couple of months for everyone (dog included) to be properly settled.

Sure there are plenty of fustrating times, but there has been quite a number of happier moments as well. I guess I am not used to having someone or something being almost predominantly dependent on me. The rules of responsibilities have changed.

Can't quite say much now since it has really only been 2 weeks. Hope for better progress and more updates soon.

January 2012 (Review)

It's been a pretty good start to 2012 and I hope it stays this way for the rest of the year. In a year mark with many new beginnings, a return of some old traditions and a drive to achieve goals set for myself, I must say "So far so good"! 

Been busy with school, Chinese New Year, birthdays, etc etc etc.... By the end of Chinese New Year was dead exhausted (Too close proximity to X'mas and New Year's). Still, supposingly this  year us Rabbits are the 3rd luckiest in this  year of the Dragon (so fingers crossed it remains so). 

Pictures speak a thousand words so I'll just upload a summarized version of my January.

They say that a man's life can be reflected in the company of friends he hangs out with... That's why I live a great and happy life!

A CHAMPAGNE OF FUN AND A BUCKET OF LAUGHTER, WE TOAST AWAY A GOOD 2011 AND USHERED IN AN AWESOME 2012!

 

I must say this, this year's New Year's Eve is probably one of my best and probably one of the most memorable of all time. It was great fun from beginning to end, especially at the after-party. As my friend Jo mentioned, "Still smiling at last night's memories!" 

And boy, are we still smiling! 

We started by counting down at one of our regular haunts, "Sara's @ Upper Thomson".

In attendance: Viv, Helms, Az, Esther, Shaun, Charles, Nabs, SK and bf, and of course yours truly.

As usual, we were the life of the party! We popped the bottles and poppers, covered the pub with streamers and noise, it was a BLAST! 

Then came the true highlight of the night, joined by Jo, Edwin, Steph, Jess, Fiona and their other friends... we headed to the after-party held at my buddy's (JJ) gramps' place just 5 minutes drive down. Although we had to say bye to Viv, Helms and Az (who went back to Vic's)... The in-coming company were equal in FUN and LIFE! As promised, I brought an "army" of friends and continued the merry-making with buddy's other friends, family and of course, among ourselves. Certainly a night to remember, with all the booze and all the food, I sense a brand new tradition starting! We laughed, we joked, we sang, we cheered... IT WAS THE PERFECT START TO THE YEAR!

And so they say that the people you usher in the year with are the people you will spend much of the year with, the ones you cherish the most. I agree... for it matters not the place of the party but who you party with. 

I sure as hell can't wait for the next time we paint the town RED!

P.S. Many thanks to all who came down in joining me for this very MEMORABLE New Year's Eve! And also many MANY thanks to my buddy and his family for hosting the after party!

HAPPY HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MY AWESOME FRIENDS AND FAMILY!
2011 was already a pretty good year for me, especially since it is supposed to be a 犯太岁year. So I am very thankful for getting through it relatively unscathed. 2011 was a FUN year! But more on "2011 in review" on another post. I am still recovering from my school holidays filled with parties, including last night's countdown at Sara's with the gang (Vivian, Helms, Az, Esther, Nabs, Jo, Fiona, Shaun, Steph, Charles), before heading straight to my buddy's (JJ) gramps place nearby for the after party. THE AFTER PARTY ROCKED! Joined by Jess, Edwin, etc. who replaced Viv, Helms and Az (went off to another after party). Buddy's place was awesome and we all came to the same conclusion that it is our new tradition, especially since most of us are still smiling at the memories of the after party. GREAT START TO THE NEW YEAR!

Anyways, that's all for now... As I said, still recovering from all the partying.

First post of the year is dedicated to my song choice for the moment: "Levels" - Avicii (Many thanks to buddy and then VIV for making me hooked onto the song!)

Once again, WISHING ALL A HAPPY, HAPPY NEW YEAR! MAY THIS YEAR BE MORE AWESOME THAN THE LAST! AND REMEMBER, IF YOU ARE DRINKING, DON'T DRIVE!
