YOGAYUGA

I haven’t taken photos on our top roof for long. Here are photos showing views looked out from our top roof.

Two houses were built next to us since last year. Our cactus is so big now, almost my height, 5′ 3″.

A friend of mine told me to take some videos of our animals at home in case they are no longer existed. Touch wood to say but it’s true. I didn’t take videos of Tiger and Bibi because they hated cameras. They usually ran away quick.

I made two videos today for test. They are the only animals in the house now. Oh yes one more! A bird! Both of them were extremely quiet yesterday. I think they knew what happened. Our neighbours’ dogs all knew about what happened the other night. My Mum told me that those dogs tried to climb over from another side of top roof when they heard the noise of Tiger made. (Our next door keeps at least nine dogs I think.) I didn’t notice that. I guess animals do have strong sense of feeling for live and death of their fellows.

Kit Kit - She was ok with the camera.

May May - She was definitely feeling annoyed by the camera.

Tiger had completely gone. I received photos of Tiger from the pet buried service today. They sent me back all the photos of Tiger from the buried process by email. They did the same for Bibi.

I am very upset at heart but not as bad as what I felt seven months ago. My Dad will feel very sad when he finds out. He is now still on holiday. Tiger was much closer to him than anyone else in the house.

I feel worst the most is I didn’t even realise Tiger was dying. I saw him gone slowly, but didn’t realise he was having his last breath. I thought he just fainted. I touched his heart to be sure, and found it stopped. His body became cold immediately. I was shocked. I didn’t think that he would die all the sudden. I was so scared actually last night when I saw his last scene. I was silly thinking I was taking him to see the vet today. All these make me feel so bad especially he kept looking at me while he was going. I forgot to tell him to go peacefully, which I did it for Bibi as I was well prepared that Bibi was dying. I hope that Tiger was brave enough to leave.

I talked to a dog expert friend today. He told me his dog also died under the same circumstances. He told me Tiger died of natural causes. He was too old. His big stomach was a sign of this cause.  It does happen to every dog before they die of natural causes. They do make noise before they leave. It could be some other reasons. He might have hidden diseases, but it’s hard to find out now.

It’s really no good to see the dying process twice in my eyes within a year. Somewhat I brought them home, I do have responsibilities to watch them go.

I am no longer to use pet hair shaving service, pet food order service, and vet visiting service. Again, I am very sure I am not going to have any pets in the rest of my life. Never again! I mean it.

Once again. A word “cherish” is deeply grown in my mind and thought. Live and death are really a line of difference…..Once it had gone, it would never come back….

He is a Sharpie.

He is a father of two. (Bibi was his sons’ mother)

He died today around 10:30pm, Sept 7.

I don’t know what to say about it. My second dog died only an hour ago. He had the same symptom as Bibi, a big tummy, but his just came all in sudden. I don’t know what happened to me this year. Two of my dogs died in a year.

Tiger had no sign at all. He made some horrible noise before he stopped breathing. I walked near to him, but didn’t know what to do. I saw him stop breathing gradually, slowly. He kept looking at me. His eyes were half opened. He looked so painful. Everything just happened within one and a half hour. I am living in a suburb area, where is impossible to have a vet come over in an hour.

The person of pet buried service just arrived and collected his body. We also chose the service of group buried, same as what we did for Bibi.

I am very upset, but didn’t cry much. I don’t know what to say about it. Two dogs died in a year. Both of them were from me. Tiger was given by a  friend of mine during 1999. He was a good dog, and never gave us any trouble. He was also a healthy dog, never seen any vet.

I don’t know how to cry this time. I only feel very miserable for what happened. You saw your beloved pet dying slowly, but cannot do anything. I saw the same situation when Bibi died, but we did need to put her to sleep. Tiger died without a reason this time. We suspected he might ate something that hurt his stomach. He always liked biting the plastic plant pot. He might swallowed it, and that hurt his stomach. We couldn’t find out what exactly happened. This became a misery, a misery happened in 2 hours, and worth a live.

This is all about life - birth, live, death, coming and going.

This became the story of me in 2008. Miserable indeed…..still figuring out what’s going on….  The photos posted were his last photos…..

My Mum asked me not to tell Dad and sister until they are back from their trips.

Sigh! Hope that nothing is going to be happened tonight. Tiger is not going to follow Bibi seven months later……

Tiger is very ill all the sudden. He was totally fine during lunch. His tummy became extremely big at night while I was feeding him. Bibi was also with big tummy before she died. I don’t know what went wrong. He is so ill. He made horrible noise. Once we walked near him, he was lying down quietly. Once we walked away, he kept barking. He wants us to comfort him. I don’t want to experience anymore what happened back in January. I heard that one dog died, the other one will follow if you had two in the house.

I will see what I am going to do tomorrow. My sister went to Europe for work. My Dad went to travel. Me and my Mum can’t take him to the vet because he is too heavy. Sigh!! God helps us!

You can see his tummy abnormally big…..

My Mamma Mia! I almost freaked out! I shouted out! A heart breaking thunder totally freaked me out. It was so loud. I almost jumped up from my seat while I was checking the movie time table online.

Yes, I am thinking to see Mamma Mia next week. I heard that it’s a very warm movie that brings you laugh and joy with music and dance. It’s all about friendship, love and dream.

Lets find out how common your surnames are. Mine is VERY common in Asia.

American presidential election is dramatic. Different stores have been released everyday. I feel like watching drama, and chasing it day by day.

I did watch the acceptance speech given by Obama, and also the one given by Sara Palin today. I like watching speech given by politicians. My favourite speeches were those given by Tony Blair. Obama is the second politician who gives speech I really like. He is dominated with fair judgments but not argument and attacking. He is an excellent speaker.

Speech of Sara Palin is dramatic. Certainly, she attracts women’s voters perhaps attracts those voted for Hillary. She turned herself as a victim of her 17 years old daughter’s controversy story. She won’t overshadow John McCain’s campaign. She has no baggage. The Democratic has no way to challenge her. She is smart enough to have her underage pregnant daughter with her fiance on the stage for showing image of family utility. Family image is on the agenda of her battle. She is ready to fight, and looks like much stronger than Hillary. I find that terrifying. Her speech is attacking.

Sara Palin maybe the best choice of John McCain for the election battle, but she could be an unworldly woman who has judgment lacking in sophistication.

I can’t wait to see the debate between Obama and John McCain.

Interesting news! Indeed interesting! Teen daughter of GOP VP pick  is pregnant!

I thought Sara Palin is a conservative mother (she sounds like it upon all her policies towards women’s rights), but somehow her daughter only 17 got pregnant. IF she was conservative enough, and able to teach her daughter how to protect herself, then I doubt her daughter would get pregnant before marriage. And she is only 17, not a complete adult. Sigh! How can you believe what politicians ever said? Just be true, not to be a hypocrite!

I had been a very delicious French restaurant tonight because of friend’s birthday. It’s Fusion 5th Floor, nearby by my dance studio. We three had three courses meal. I had Seared Foie Gras with confit of apple, pineapple, beet roat, in foie gras sauce for appetizer, Roasted rack of lamb (Australia) with ratatouille and black pepper sauce for main course, and Lemon tart with pistachio gelato and sour cream sauce for dessert. The Foie Gras was so delicious, but I forgot to take a photo of it. Here are photos I remembered to take.

My friend is just back from her holiday in Okinawa. She bought me a very nice souvenir, which are a wood made Japanese photo frame and a Japanese patterned handkerchief.
