I lived another day

Who could ever know that I was saved by Liam, my dog! I was deep in my slumber when suddenly Liam (in living room) barked agitatedly. I was traumatized by the way he barked. I looked at the other two dogs, Faye and Pedro (in my bedroom) were staring  at the bedroom’s door.

I looked rushed out of my room and I was terrified to see my living room was filled with smoke. It was the smell of either burnt plastic or rubber.  Suddenly I noticed some sparks and flame coming out from the fuse box. I ponder no more, I hastily switched it off. I was so terrified that I might get electrocuted at some point.

Once the current halted, everything seemed so quiet. The air was still full of smoke. That no good smolder has definitely filled my lungs, I only ajar my main door and windowpane to let the smoke clear the air.

At the end of the day, it was fixed alright by an electrician. I was told it could have burnt the whole fuse box if I did not switch off the fuse box. Short circuit happened due to old loose electric wiring.

If it wasn’t for Liam I might died choking on the smoke or may be burnt to death. I am lucky to be alive and to have Liam. I am so proud to have him. Who knows a dog can be my savior.

I survive and live another day!

My lucky charm , My hero!

ICQ

“O.h oh” – Remember the endearing sound from ICQ incoming message?


I miss chatting in ICQ so much. I was so eager to chat in ICQ after school; the internet connection at home was really sucks at that time. Usually I will drive to my friends’ or cousins house to please my addiction. What excite me most was waiting for ICQ to sign in where there was this sound of a ship blowing its horn, the full load of the flower logo reminding you that you have successfully signed in.

The whole list of my online and offline friends will show in a long vertical tab of mine. Eyeing on the online list was my favorite; chat starts right at that moment. ICQ has this special tab where you can search to chat with other ICQ user around the world. I kind of like that features where they have this advanced search for friends around the world. Don’t think we have this kind of features in the current chat we have. Current chat room it’s too revealing.

I tried to turn on my ICQ via my phone today for 24 hours. There were no active signs at all. NO one signs in. Sigh.

I am simply missing it..

Learning

When I have the $$ (note: only 2$), I don’t have the time for myself. When I have the time I don’t have $. It’s so shitty.

There are times I find myself doing weird things that I should have recorded in a video. I might just upload it without typing. I yell for nonentity, I sing for fun, I tend to talk funny to Toby who doesn’t even care what I am mumbling about. He faced the other way whenever I babble to him. He must be thinking my minion is getting a bit too cuckoo.

My other 3 critters no longer smells, no matting and they look gorgeous and “na-rak” all the time. Faye and Pedro are kinda obedient substantially at times their reactions are a bit sluggish. I have to yell and ordered them. Not sure if they are deaf or they would like me to speak to them in other languages.

I am taking a language courses at my free time. What’s best on the subject of this language is, there are no tenses in it! No present, past or grammar! I am looking forward to converse it by the end of the course.

If only I can get a great idea for the extra $$$, there should have more stuff for me to do and learn. I really want to learn to surf. My body weight might be an issue, but it might be a great way to lose few stones from the swimming and dragging the surf board back to the ocean after I am washed up ashore. If time, place and $ permits I might fly to Bali or Gold Coast to have surfing lessons again.

I don’t feel like doing nothing right now. I want to grab and learn whatever I have interest in.
