Events over the weekend
Sat 15 May
Morning, was awaken by my brother's exclamation "Diego had died!".
Well, mentioned in an earlier blog entry that Diego is our pet terrapin.
For the past few days, Diego had not been eating. We also can't find the reason why. Search for information from the internet that it's a serious case when terrapins show signs of decreasing activity, eyes closed and not eating. However, Diego was still rather active. On Friday nite, when we let it out to crawl, it crawled quite fast and even dare to crawl up to my brother's and my palms. It was only until late night, that I saw that one of it's eyes closed and it flipped over. I put it back and went to sleep.
Brother asked me to clear the tank as he was going out, and I saw that it was flipped . Didn't know that when terrapins die, they also 四脚朝天 ( four legs facing the sky).....
Am feeling quite sad......
Sat Afternoon
Went to a 'colleague function". Nah it was just that my colleague ( my friend, "har gao") invite a bunch of colleagues and I to her condo's guest house to chill out. Watch movies and makan.
We're very obedient, so no beers no party. Hahaha
Watched Love Actually DVD, the uncut version. ( I din manage to catch it at the cinemas them). Quite a touching movie. I guess I would have cried if I watched it in the cinema . It was hilarious watching the Prime Minister ( Hugh Grant) dancing across the rooms. My friend went to excuse herself at the scene where the guy professing his love for his best friend's wife by showing her the placecards at her doorstep on Christmas.(yeah , that was a very sad & touching scene).
After the movie, caught Channel U's premiere variety show " The Next Big Thing",and then, we watched another movie on VCD-- ET.
Even though ET is a classic movie, yet lot of us have not seen it. That's was why our "Har Gao' arrange for this movie chill out session. hmm, dun think ET is cute leh, but watching the young Drew Barrymore in that movie really made us shouted "Sooooo cute!!" everytime she appeared.
