Sunday, August 2nd 2009



I had no idea James Brown was/is so awesome! I didn't know he was black either, but that doesn't matter. I watched a couple of videos of him on Youtube, and he had really groovy music and moves. He sang a lot of "break free and dance like hell" music, and it's really good for de-stressing.

Tonight, I transposed my last song "Dayung Sampan". Thank goodness it's over!!! It wasn't difficult at all, since it's to be sung acapella, so I only had to click in the voice part. I don't think I'll be dreaming of transposing tonight!

Oh yeah, we didn't get the dog! The whole family went down to SPCA today and went to see her again, but she isn't very sociable, she just ran around, doing her own thing and ignoring us, so I said no, we'll keep visiting to see if there are more suitable dogs for us. A lot of the super-friendly ones are too big to keep in a HDB flat, so too bad. I guess we'll keep going back until we find the right dog for us. After our SPCA visit, we drove over to Seletar to visit some animal resort place. I saw dogs, horses, goats, rabbits, and a really old and large bird who looks really wise.
I stroked some rabbits, thinking of my own lovely Rabbit. I miss him so much. His is the face that I see every day when I wake up and before going to sleep. Knowing that he's always with me is a comfort, but I wish I could still cuddle and kiss him and feed him carrots that turn his mouth orange. What I would give to bring him back.

I forgot to type about the other day, when I visited his grave again. The decomposers have done their work, and well, too. All that's left of him are his bones, and I know because his skull was showing through some dirt and grass. It's so strange looking at the lifeless remains of someone who was very much alive. He listened to everything- every song, every word, every complaint, every love story I told him. When I was feeling upset, he would come and lie beside me and kiss my fingers. There's nothing I wouldn't give to have him back again.
