Donut, Pnut and Walnut.

Being so busy, i totally forget to announce the arrival of the baby hams!
I'm officially adopting another 2 baby hamsters on 13April 2008.
The 4 babies arrived 2 sundays ago with their mommy in a pink little cage.
They barely opened their eyes hours before reaching my place, as their owner randomly left them in my care before she went on a holiday.
They were sooooo small. About the size of my thumbs.
During her absence, i was to decide on which 2 babies i'll like to keep forever, and to return her 1 mommy ham and her 2 baby ham.
Pictures of the hams!

We have the mommy eating at the corner in the green bowl and her babies.

hahahha!

The baby hamsters grow up really quickly, and as of thursday night, Da and i had a hard time picking out the 2 babies that we've agreed on - and the conclusion was to pick the 2 runt of the litter.
They are officially Peanut the explorer, and Walnut the non explorer.
Their other 2 siblings tt we will be returning are flash the squawky, and the biting baby.
The weird names were based on the predominant characters of each baby we've decided on exactly which 2 to pick..

The explorer came about because it is always alone exploring the nook and cranny of the cage, and rarely runs to its mommy for feeding (which is why it is soooo small). Explorer is also the bravest of the lot, and it never once panic when we held it in our hands.

While Non explorer on the other hand is always sedate and not very hyper (i detest hyper hamsters, mainly because its tiring to catch up with their speed).
That's exactly how Da and i concluded on the selection of the 2 hammies.

Squawky, which is also known as flash, on the other hand is panicky, zooms about really fast and hates/is scared of the human hand (It's the first one that got eliminated). While the biting one - for obvious reasons is out as well, because of its tendency to nibble (just like its mom)
My fingers were quite well chewed on during their 2 week stay, and i had to fling the mommy hard to get my fingers back! Stupid!

Alright, enough of the new additions, here's updates on Donut- she's VERY fat now, exactly like how her name suggest, and she's nice and squishy to hold onto.
She bites/nibbles occasionally, and is no longer hyper or squawky.
Tremendous improvements compared to her initial arrival. Hahahha.
i managed to sneak a picture of Donut sleeping flat on her back, you can now see how fat she actually is.
We are now wondering if we should let Big donut meet tiny pnut and walnut to play on neutral grounds.... but only worried that the big sister would bully the 2 young ones....
Hmmmm should we, or should we not?

Bailamos and PAYM performance

Helloo! It's been a long time, and I am finally taking/enjoying my official break week, before starting on my "gruelling' study schedule. So while I am at it, i've managed to sort of clean up my room, rearrange my make up stuff, accessories, clean up my precious bags, and chuck out unwanted make up, bags and accessories, and stashed aside stuff that I might want to sell at my next flea market attempt.

I did promise pictures of the Bailamos event, and most of it can be found here, because the BenQ crashed on me, and my hard disk is currently slate clean.
*sulks*
So that's about ALL the pictures I have for the Bailamos event. (Adi has finally managed to get hold of the official video footage, and I might load it up here, once I get it! Our amateur attempt at performance! Hurhurhurhur!) I had such a horrible time surviving through my crazy project period, with my laptop crashing on me, and rebooting every time I blink my eyes.
Gah!
I shudder to think about how i managed through everything, with so much crappy stuff happening to me!

What's a good picture without the girls?!
left to right, Charmaine, Cherri, Audrey, Chen Mun, and Meeeee!



Mr Dance partner Aditya Deng xing xing! Hahahahha!

I killed him! Woots!

What's my first official performance like without the sister?
Presenting to you DALENA! I received a nice pot of flower that she bought from ikea (as all the other florist were already closed by the time she remembered), and i'm glad she did not heed the cheapo advise that mommy gave - that is to grab a random stuffed toy from my bed to present to me after my performance -_-". Thank you for the countless support and pointers that you've given to me! Tee heehee

Apart from Bailamos, SIM En Sync also performed the improved chereo of Sambia for the PAYM (People's Association Youth Movement) Dinner and Dance, and we had a costume change! Woots! We earned ourselves a measely $50 bucks each, of which half of our "pay" went to club funds, and the remaining went to our celebratory dinner! Hahahaha

More pictures of the PAYM event can be found here.

This time round, we're all dressed up, as compared to our casual street wear!

Our pseudo act cool pose - Adi and I
Ricky and I in some random pose - Might be tango or bachata inspired? *shrugs*
Our usual nonsense, Muahahhaha!

That's about all for now. I particularly enjoyed the PAYM chereo, and I do hope that we will be able to land ourselves the official footage of our performance. I would say that it's waay better than what we did for Bailamos!


That's all, i reckon that i should go back to my room packing.
