Dawn breaks

I thought godpa was going to bring me out because he woke up at 6am today. Then he just left carting a big tripod and camera bag. I guess he must really be bored and headed to Lower Seletar Reservoir Park to capture the sunrise.

For some people, today is the last day of the Singapore school holidays. For uncle Leon, he returned today from work and a short vacation. Even though I didn't get to welcome him at the airport, I'm glad he's back.

Bored

Godpa's sian, I'm sian, oh well. Maybe this video will cheer him up. Be careful though, it has quite an infectious tune.

Fathers, mothers

We went to the sea side last Sunday as part of family time. It was pretty crowded as the parking lots were all taken. Luckily godpa knows the area quite well and we parked elsewhere.

Godpa tells me he's rather happy today. He told me a story about a mum who's calm loving ways and persistence helped her teen son to take the first steps in turning away from bad influences. Makes me happy, wish I had a loving mum around too.

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day. It's not just for fathers of course but anyone who plays a paternal role like my godpa and uncle Leon. Bon voyage to uncle Leon too, he should have touched down in Shanghai as godpa completes my blog today.

Godpa tells me he's finished a rather bloody but fun PS3 game called God of War 3 and has moved on to a much more peace loving fun game called the Little Big Planet. I hope he doesn't fall too much in love with the game and forget about me. I'm sure I'm much cuter than Sackboy.

A walk a day keeps the vet away

Finally I get a decent walk outdoors. It lasted an hour but the timing suited me because I'm a crepuscular kind of animal who prefers to walk into the sunset.

The funny thing about humans is, they sometimes are not contented to walk on their feet and prefer to do all sorts of things on machines.

It's raining, it's not, it's raining



What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows.

No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.

No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.

No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance.

No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.

A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

-- "Leisure" by William Henry Davies


PS: I wonder where are the squirrels?
