Another litter of kittens were spotted lurking downstairs and they were a friendly lot! Just like how Dae was not afraid of humans when I first picked him up. We saw two of those little furry creatures in the middle of the road and we move them to safety. They are so adorable I wished [...]
OMG Michael Jackson is dead! Passed away, mati, si liow, sei jor. Not coming back. I used to enjoy his songs and MTVs back in the 90s. Thriller, Black or White and all, they are the my staple equivalent to MTV right now. RIP, MJ, you will always be remembered.
