LaLa

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

This is the other dog of mine at my parents place. We call her LaLa or Jumping (her funny English name). She’s a mix, will be 5 years old on March 8th this year.

I got her from a close friend’s grandma. It was May 20th 2005. She was even more tiny at that time.

LaLa is not very friendly to strangers but she’s really a sweetie to me. She follows me everywhere and she only listens to me. Every morning before I got up I’d play with her in bed and she would be so soft and cute. Mum always says that LaLa thinks I’m her only master no matter how others spoil her. I guess that’s some kind of dog’s loyalty.

Seriously I wish I could take her to Australia. =( It is pretty much impossible. She does not eat any dog food, nor dry food or can meat. If taking her to Australia from China, she will have to stay in Hong Kong for 6 months at the minimum first, have 4 blood tests and then in quarantine in AUS for another one month at least. LaLa will not be able to get through that. She is very stubborn and she eats my mum’s special cooked-food only.

Well, luckily, my parents and my grandpa all love her a lot. They actually spoil her. She will be having a very good life with them. I just cannot imagine what if she thinks I do not want her any more. I am a dog person and I always have this kind of special connection with her. She has been with me the whole time while I have been through a lot of stuff.

Right now she’s sleeping deeply and snoring a lot. Hehe usually I sleep on the left side of the bed and she sleeps right next to my pillow. When I was in Singapore, sometimes I woke up at midnight and found that she was not near my pillow and I got really really sad. I just hope she will live happily and be very healthy.

She’s always the dog that’d lick my tears off, hug me and enjoy some Feist songs with me. No matter what happens, no matter how many dogs Lewi and I will have in the future, she always will have a place in my heart. Just like the day we met, it was sunny, she was tiny, standing next to my friend’s bike, looking at me shyly but happily as well.

Susi’s happy life in AUS

Friday, October 30th, 2009

Susi has been in Australia for almost 4 months (out of the Sydney quarantine station for more than 2 months). I think she is really in love with Australia. Yummy bones and beef, grasslands, fresh air, clear sky, beautiful blue sea and a whole yard for her to play! I really can’t imagine if we actually left her in Hong Kong. I would have been totally heartbroken now and she would have been as well. She is just such a cutie and a sweetie.

Cheung Chau

Saturday, October 3rd, 2009

I like Hong Kong. But frankly, there are many places, such as TST and Mong Kok, I seriously hate a lot. However, I am always into those small islands and Cheung Chau is probably my favourite.

This small island is 10km southwest of Hong Kong Island and there is ferries service between Central pier and Cheung Chau. It takes 55 minutes for ordinary ferries and 35 minutes for high speed ferries. For further details, check out the First Ferry website: http://www.nwff.com.hk/

Usually you can see beautiful views of Hong Kong on the ferry. It is really stunning! They have outdoor seats and you can get snacks and drinks on the ferry as well.
