Saw some news regarding my fav dog in GPF

Was feeling curious about GPF's situation when I heard one of their dogs passed away at the vet's recently.

The woman who (more or less decided) to renege on her promise to me has lost her favourite dog in the shelter. I feel sad for the dog, but I believe he would have gone to a better place where there is no suffering and pain =/ (he probably died from stomach/lung cancer as mentioned by GPF)

For her however, i totally felt that she deserved it. Karma at its best! Was half thinking of posting something sarcastic on facebook to dwell in delight at her plight but decided otherwise. I would have stooped to their level if I did that.

In fact, I never did post ANYTHING about their lack of keeping to promises to regular volunteers at all, I must be really very nice to do that... >.<!

Anyway, the dog I used to groom and take care of is officially adopted by the NUS lecturer woman. She claims he is very obedient and only problem he has is socialising with other dogs... blah blah blah....

On GPF's facebook, people are praising her to the heavens for knowing her dog well!

That must be difficult to achieve. /muchsarcasm

But little do they know that his obedience was probably due to my TLC and training while taking care of him from Jan to Oct 13. (9 months of training..!) >.>''

Something about sitting nicely in lifts and only getting out when given the "okay" sign? That was part of my training by the way.

Of course, GPF never mentioned that his current good behaviour was influenced by me at all. Because I am an "immature volunteer who they rather not have at all" /endquotebyflorence

It's okay, I don't need your recognition. I just thought the public should know the whole story.

But they don't, and they won't. Because I have subsequently thought better of it, since i'm no longer pro-active and supportive or even affiliated with GPF anymore.

Not that I want to, their facebook page is a beautifully written, but yet often-not-truthful-or-completely-honest page. Only those who are familiar with GPF will know, but who will say anything..? :P

I have already moved on, and hopefully will be able to find another dog that has similar characteristics :D

Take care dagger boy, she better treat you well..! :')

The day I lost my dog.

Friday, 11th October 2013. 

I remember clearly about 6 months ago when dagger first came into cage 1. He was jumping all around excitedly, probably thinking that his trip to GPF was going to be another play session...

On the very same day, I also remember him being enclosed in the room of cage 1, because the rest of the male dogs (especially Daryl) wanted to attack him.

Fast forward a month, he has settled into the shelter environment. Wagging his tail furiously and jumping onto me was a weekly sight whenever I'd pop by. Such an affectionate dog I thought.. 

Months passed and he grew up to be a handsome dog, fighting his way up the pack ladder and vying for the alpha spot with Daryl.

Though he does have his dominance issues with other dogs (especially male ones), he has never bitten any human. None. He would always find a human to sit and lie on, during the weekends where attention is aplenty.

I have always considered bringing him home where I can provide a better environment for him, and in return receive the joys of being a dog owner... 

But now, he will be adopted by another adopter other than myself. The shelter where I've so actively volunteered for a year (probably only missed out 4 weekends amongst the >50+) has decided to let him be adopted by a complete stranger who doesn't even have P.R or a Singapore citizenship. Dagger has known me more than half his life and I've utilised all my time in ensuring he behaves his best and gets the best attention and treatment when I'm around. Having said all these, I find myself outclassed by a complete stranger. What a complete fiasco. 

Haven't felt so upset in a long time, and I think it'll take awhile to let the scars of the loss of my potential dog to fade away..

Objectivity vs Subjectivity

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10200829626843802

I saw this link on uncle wee's facebook 2 days ago, and it gave me an unpleasant surprise.

Unfortunately, a friend of mine was video-ed to have tugged quite strongly to a dog he was handling at the local park.

Upon viewing the video for the first time, it looked like he was too harsh on correcting the poor dog. Another volunteer shared this video, for reasons not logical to me.

I could be biased because the accused is my friend and I was the one who taught him the tugging method. I feel somehow guilty for this occurence.

But lets put all that aside and analyse the video.

At 2-4 seconds, Dara could be seen 3 metres away from the Dazzle. It is a known fact that Dazzle/Daffy will attack her upon close contact. I have personally handled Dazzle during the event and she barked at Dara from 10 metres away.

My friend tugged her at 3 second with one hand. He was holding on to a 1.5l bottle on the other, and may not be able to shorten the leash in time, had Dazzle not been tugged when she rushed forward.

At 5 seconds, Dazzle turned to Daffy, which rushed forward reactively. It is unknown if aggression is present at that moment, but would not be ruled out (SJ mentioned that they have been observed to fight outdoors even though they are sisters)

At 8-10seconds, Daffy can be seen trying to rush at something. I would assume it could be at Dara or other "hostile" dogs.

At 18 seconds, Dazzle could still be seen tugging away at the leash, something which she has been habitually doing. It is known that she could be over tugging and suffocating herself.

At 22 seconds, Daryl can be seen tugging furiously as well.


My conclusion : Daryl, dazzle and other dogs are not at fault! The handlers are the ones who did not inculcate the good habits and behaviours of how the dogs should be walking beside them.

It somewhat angers me when other people do not observe and analyse the situation objectively and "judge a book by its cover", or in this context, judge a human by solely one observed action.

I do not deny that my friend could have over-tugged Dazzle in this situation, or that he did not take the necessary precautions (such as shortening of leash) when other dogs are near.

Having said that, I would rather he over tug Dazzle than end up having to break up a dog fight, which could be more disastrous.

At the end of the day, the humans are responsible for guiding the dogs on "walking etiquette", which I shamelessly will affirm that I have tried my very best , no matter which dog I walk.

I definitely can't say the same for other handlers. =/

What say you?

Another one attached!

Another one of my animal friends just got attached recently, so glad for him! His first relationship, hopes it turns out well..! May you be forever happy and blissful with your other half! 

Sounds as if he's already getting married liao hahaha~~

Anywayyy, haven't blogged for awhile now so I guess it's time for a quick reflection of what's been going on.

School has started (in fact, more than halfway through) and I've been putting in some effort into the projects and reading the textbooks in general... Could have put in way more effort for one module, I'll suffer for it sooner or later :/

For the rest of the modules, I'd say I'm doing pretty darn well. HDs for all three marketing modules so far (although only 10% weightage per module , but wtheck xD )

Volunteering at the shelter has been quite a roller coaster experience. Many ups and downs of it, but I'm nevertheless content and convinced I made the right move in Nov 12. =]

Note to self: eventually I'll need to adopt dagger :(

Dota 2 has been strangely addictive. Can't seem to stop playing whenever I'm at home, so I try to hand ard outside/in sch if there's work to be done :s

.... I sure can try harder..! >.<!

As for fate, I'll leave it to itself. Ironic much! =x

Rules player

According to the all powerful book, I'm not supposed to talk, spread and propagate about it. 

But I guess it's okay, pretty much no one except myself reads this anyway.. =]

It's hard being a rules player. Can't do this, can't do that. But I guess it'll help everyone in the long run, and I believe it works. =]

Part of being a rules player involves one not spreading negativity, only positivity. No grumbling, complaints and etc. 

It's harder than I thought it would be. No facebook/twitter ramblings means I have to be really careful of what I talk about online. 

It's even harder not to complain in real life. I try my best, but I don't beat myself up if I fail. Lucky that's part of the package too ._."

I really really wanna recommend this to some people that I feel would benefit from this, but I'm not allowed to (goodie shoes) >.>

I miss the furkids. Sigh. #random

Anyway, I wanted to blog cause I needed to remind myself to enjoy the little good moments I get everyday, and not get caught up by the hustle and bustle and stress that every one's making noise about.

"Join them if you can't beat them" - does not apply. I damn well know better. >.>

Right now, I'm just grateful for enough sleep everyday, not having to slog in school/work, and being able to meet friends and family so often (if not everyday)  =)

Tata!

I wish I could bring you home.

After watching the Amber golden retriever video where the mum asked the daughter about whether she would abandon the retriever if it gets old and stuff, the daughter said the "pet is family" and "will never throw her away"

Such a simple yet impactful video.

I just wish I could do more by bringing you home. ='(

You'll definitely need more training but at the end of the day, its about the family being supportive of the decision, and not just about the characteristics of the dog.

I'm feeling so demoralised already. SIGHHH

How to reject someone like you..?

Im a sucker at rejecting people, especially this kind.

sigh, even at the expense of my academic results? im not sure if its worth it >.<

but i just cant say no. very very bad impression, especially when they need me most..

i guess i'll have to cope with what i have.

FIGHTING! STUDY MODE ON!

T-2 day.

2 more days to exams.

It's 6.30 in the morning, and anyone who still reads this blog will know I'm not a morning person... :X

Couldn't sleep well tonight, and the feeling sucked.

I guess it's the playing of scenes from GPF in my dreams. Seemed so surreal when they came over to my place to assess suitability for adoption... Dagger and Daryl so cute~ T.T

But I've to remind myself that its only a dream. And it probably will stay that way because of the situation at home. Sigh... :(

I need to stay focused. I want to score as well as last sem. 2 Distinctions 1 credit 1 pass. That's my goal.

This sem's abit of a disappointment to be honest, considering I studied and worked a'lil harder than last semester. Screwed up law paper which I was quite confident of, and didn't do well for OB individual assignment as well. Probably went Outta topic..

No use crying over spilt milk. I just need to score better for exams! Jia you wk! You know you can do it..! You'll be able to see the furkids soon, so just bear with it for the next two weeks..! >.<

I hope this self-motivation post works!

Another post before I go study haha!

Previous post was totally not what I wanted to blog about originally..

This post is dedicated to the furkids at GPF.

I can vividly remember wanting a dog when I was young (10 yrs old if i'm not wrong). I remember researching about dogs, printing many many articles off the internet and compiling them into 1 big folder of files containing guides on how to feed, train and basically anything related to owning a dog.

I was really determined to show that I was committed to doing so, but at such a young age, my mom didnt agree (obviously) to buy or adopt 1.

Thinking back, I'd say its really a bad decision made by her. Owning a dog brings so much responsibilities to the owner, and if she had agreed back then, I would have learnt many many things about responsibilities, love and respect for everything around me. I would have matured way quicker.

You could say I never really had much respect for my mum ever since. Of course, it didn't ONLY stem from the disagreement about owning a pet dog, but from many many others as well...

But I digress.

Now at 23 (turning 24 soon T_T) , I've re-discovered one of my true blue passions that I kinda distanced myself from, and i'm REALLY REALLY glad I psyched myself to email GPF team. This was what I said then:

"Hi Gentle Paws Team,

I've always wanted to have the experience of living with a dog but unfortunately due to various issues at home, I'm unable to do so. A friend of mine recently posted a picture of a dog from your shelter and I thought I'd like to help out since I've got time on my hands now anyway and I figure 1 more helping hand might be beneficial to the dogs that requires help.

Do let me know if its possible to start helping out =]

PS: I haven't got experience with dogs though. =/"
.
.
.
Looking back, thats such a weird way to ask for approval for volunteering haha!

But I'm really glad I made the commitment that every day on 1st November! Come April, it'll be the 6th month of my volunteering stint. Yay!

And its Daryl's birthday today! Too bad the shelter is closed, but I'll bring something extra tomorrow for him =]
.

.

.

.

Haven't bothered to check with my family if they're agreeable to adopt due to HDB restrictions and family problems, but this issue has been nagging me for quite awhile and I'm feeling quite guilty about it.

I'm sure we have the funds and time to do it, but I hate rejection and maybe thats why I never asked, probably will never ask too..

I need to get out of this vicious cycle, need my own home asap...  =/

Oh well. At least the three upcoming days are gonna be happy ones! :D

PS: You lost my respect then, you never got it back, and I'm pretty sure things will not change thereon. It'll not be my loss for sure. Too bad for you I guess.

Roller coaster week!

Hmm where shall I start? Okay, lets wind back time and start on last sunday. Had a great day at the shelter, despite feeling abit guity when leaving..*refer to previous post*

Had a great bball session with the peeps. Got quite pissed off with P cause he didnt play nice. Well, two can play a game =P

I've come to realise that I need to up my game by being more consistent when finishing on the lay-up or via shooting. Usually I can get past the defender, but end up not scoring the basket. That's something I've got to work on..

Anywayy, I only felt the discomfort on my knee towards the end of the games...didn't think much about it cause it just felt like a stretched joint discomfort thingy, until Monday morning when I woke up and got off the bed.

The sharp and intense pain that hit me, felt as if my knee got hit by a truck or something. Instantly jolted me from my sleepy mode...

So I skipped school cause i couldn't walk properly, and decided to study at home to make up for it... quite productive, considering I cleared 1 big chapter on Terms for Commercial law..
.
.
.
Tuesday came and I got a pleasant surprise! RMIT groupmate messaged us and told us that Macroecons results were out, and I got super kan-chiong...

Didn't expect to do well cause I didn't really understand the concepts back then (not much better now lah, but still... =X )

However I scraped a distinctions for the paper! Really got lucky there, and I told myself I cannot rely on luck all the time, better study even harder!
.
.
.

Wednesday came and went with a project discussion in school, followed by a study session with Monkey at NLB.. Not really productive this time cause I was quite distracted with my phone and facebook... (no thanks to monkey >.>)

Today I missed school. Supposed to wake up at 7, and I clearly remember setting my alarm the previous night. Somehow the alarm got cancelled halfway through my sleep, and I only woke up at 8. Could have rushed to school, but decided not to in the end...

Shall study awhile later to make up for it...! >.<

and Tomorrow's Good Friday! Can't wait to visit the furkids at GPF, especially Daryl and Dagger! My two personal favourites! (Despite me trying hard not to have any) xD

Wanna get there early tomorrow to greet them as the first few people to do so :D

Wa, I just realised this post is all over the place... w/e, I guess thats what Im feeling right now too haha..

Ahh, gotta stop procrastinating and shall go study!

A dog's love is the most unconditional.

Sometimes I feel bad for people who have no love for dogs. They'll never understand how it feels like to be enthusiastically greeted every single time.

Even if one punishes the dog 20 seconds ago for misbehaving.

2 weeks ago, there was a new dog named dagger that was to be integrated with the rest of the dogs in cage 1. At 9months old and barely passed the puppyhood phase, he got a shock when the rest of the dogs dominated and bullied him from the moment he came in.

But the magic began from then on. I must have been the only human in that cage to "comfort" him in that unfamiliar place with all those "aggressive" dogs, or that I resemble his previous owner, because he's sticking to me now like glue.

There's no better feeling when a dog rushes to greet, lick your face all over, and grinning away while doing that. Pure happiness I tell you!

When I left the shelter yesterday, poor dagger was lying down with a mournful expression. Wah, I felt so guilty I had to leave and couldn't adopt him. Not even Daryl(my personal favourite!) made me feel this way lol..

Oh well, I'll be back this coming week dagger!

Sigh.

Just a short update that I got chosen amongst many others to Furry Day! WOOHOO! By the lady herself somemore =D

Heart afluttering, must stay calm and cool for the next week! >.<

YAY! This just shows that people recognize continuous commitment and hard work/fun will pay off!

This must be the best thing that happened this week! ^^

The wise hold their words.

Sometimes being right is not as important as playing nice. Sure, I could probably argue all the way coherently and logically, but sometimes in the heat of the moment, gotta let the other party win. Then everyone will be happy like that mah.

Just the other day I was Bballing with my clique.. Didn't play well I admit, made afew bad passes. W was overly agitated and made afew nasty comments. Sort of lowered my morale and overall efficiency.

On hindsight, this made me realise that scolding a team mate when on the losing end will rarely work out. Just frustrates everyone even more. Lesson learnt, glad I'm not the one dishing it out.. :S
.

Today marks a hopeful day for me. I'm hoping to be able to participate in GPF's furry day! Have volunteered for about 5months so far but haven't gone for it yet... Fingers crossed..!

Wanted to blog more bout other stuff but I guess it can wait. Sleep can't, due to the early lesson tmr :(

Happy weekend, stressful-to-be weekdays

Everyone complains about how the weekends are too short and the weekdays too long, and I'm no exception lol. Thing is, I'm starting to stretch myself out in all aspects. Physically, mentally and even spiritually I might say.

I do realise I'm alot more independent than I used to be, and I need to upkeep myself...

And I don't even know where to start repairing broken bridges. I may seem to grin and laugh all the way with friends and stuff, but truth is, I forced myself to be optimistic and cheerful. My environment growing up was tough and I had to rely on myself to stay positive most of the time. Definitely not the pick of the lot.

I guess this is something I rarely share with friends. What's the point in being all gloomy and glum anyway...

I've decided to work even harder this semester and from march onwards I'll make sure I stay on top of my game, both at school and in whatever I'm committing myself to. Gambatte wk!

Injury!

Played my 1st two consecutive bball sessions in a day ever since I sprained my leg a couple of weeks ago. Definitely overstrained myself, but I'm glowing with self pride that my shooting percentage went up significantly. ^^

It didn't just miraculously get better. I went to my bball court in the early afternoon and probably shot hundreds of free throws + three pointers.

That's probably why my legs were cramping by the end of the second session. Lol. :S

W and p had some squabbling halfway through the games. W's a nice guy, but sometimes he's very excessively biased. :/

And I'm now slightly limping to monkey's house after ~5hrs of sleep and 3 hours of lecture. Looking forward to some lunch after resting for awhile at his place! Shag ahhhh~~!

Year of the "black water" snake!

It has not been a really smooth year for me so far... 3 injuries of pure random-ity, earnings not catching up with expenses, not studying as much as I would like to, etc etc

Of course, most of the shortcomings is due to my own lack of willpower and determination to do whatever is necessary, but sometimes when one is down, its easy to blame lady luck and superstition...

Anywayyy, away with the negative stuff and in comes the happiness!

Its Chinese New Year period again! Time to enjoy spending quality time with family and friends!

Tomorrow's "chu xi", the eve of CNY..! Probably will be eating out at a Chinese restaurant with my relatives on my mum's side.

Then Sunday (chu yi) will come and we'll go visiting relatives, followed by dinner at my uncle's place.

Sometimes tradition brings comfort and familiarity :)

Half of Monday will probably be spent visiting as well, and the other half of it preparing for another reunion dinner with my dad's side this time, at my place.

This year might be a lil' more distant on my end, but I'll make sure to enjoy it nevertheless =]

And of course, the Ang Baos $_$ that come with the festive occasion! =D

.

And I'm really glad that GPF is open from Sat to Tues! I'm prolly gonna go on Sat and Tues to visit the fur-kids there and bring them a piece of happiness(chicken HAHA) in this time of uncertainty =]

Sometimes I wish I can be a lil' more forgiving and her a lil' more sensitive.
Happy Chinese New Year to everyone! =DD

Recollections~

Was drifting off to sleep when suddenly memories of the bad times two and a half years ago hit me.

Super random, but I guess I never really got over it.. Indignance should be the emotion I felt then.

What's the point of hanging around in OT everyday when one has already finished one's work. Gahhh~

Sometimes a change of environment is so very crucial to bring about one's best. I'm really glad I was given that chance; being able to influence and participate in helping others to obtain have this chance as well. IMO, this is what really differentiates others from myself in my line of work then.

Meeting army friends always result in myself feeling so reminiscent. Sigh lol~

Oh well, i should snap back to the present for now and start focusing on my damned studies >.>!

Army days(daze)

Caught "Ah boys to men 2" late last night with my bball friends. The movie did indeed capture the essence of army experience in BMT, the common issues of BGF maintenance and camaraderie of the recruits in the army. The smokers gang and what's not etc..

While watching the movie, flashbacks of my personal experience played like a movie in my head. I remember volunteering to be IC during field camp, a situation nobody wanted to be in. Being IC just before the tekan session was especially tough for me, not so much due to the physical requirements, more because i didn't understand why we were getting punished over the most insignificant and trivial matters.

The discomfort from not being able to shower and getting pumped in the heat, holding myself in the push-up position while my platoon mates came over to fall in and my platoon sergeant shouting in my ears was the traditional way to get tekan-ed, and to be honest, it did affect me physically and mentally. I was literally in the push-up position in SBO for 10mins while my platoon was being lectured...

Then the handing out the family's letter to us came with the explanation of why they did this "drill". It was pretty emotional. The movie did depict that scene really well...

My friend asked me if I cried. I said no, but I clearly remember that I teared silently when I saw my granny's handwriting.
PS: she very rarely wrote/spoke in mandarin, due to her command of the language...


And there was the time at coy line when I acted "hero". Someone shouted vulgarities at the sergeants from their bunks and the sergeants heard it. Of course, we all were made to fall in immediately to 'fess up. No one dared to own up for it, and everyone would definitely get punished together if the culprit didn't own up. To be honest, when I "owned up" for what I didn't do, I wasn't trying to be hero or whatever. I had an inkling that I would not be punished as severely as my bunk mate as he had already "been marked", and also because of the fact that I was performing quite well so far and the commanders had a good impression of me. No point everyone suffer if I could take the "minimum damage".

In the end the commanders found out it wasn't me who did it, and didn't punish the culprit as well. I got a chiding from my sect comd lol~ I guess we (the entire platoon) got lucky hah..

But guess what, I'd do the same thing again if I'm faced with the same situation.
.
.
.
.

Sometimes I think I'm too selfless. On the other hand I think that's how I really matured in the army. My unit experience also gave me a different perspective of the army, but I'd have to say that the BMT experience was the most enriching part of my NS time.

I don't like to talk much about my bmt "achievements" (2nd pick for platoon best) cause I don't want people to think that I'm being a hypocrite, acting gung-ho and all despite being a pes C (chao keng) soldier...I'm just playing my part as a fellow BMT soldier IMO..

I've to admit that the 2 years spent in the army has been reformative, despite my numerous ramblings about it then haha~

PS: my bun-koping buddy will not be likely to see this post, but I'd like to let him know that that rendezvous was definitely the most exciting and hilarious moment I had in my army days... ^^

The good old times... :')

STUDY!!!

Argh~ have been procrastinating on my self-studies recently...need to buck up!

Have a lecture tomorrow morning and the notes arent even printed, much less read... >.>''

Focus ah WK! =O

Sometimes being right is not that important.

Was playing bball earlier on and I called for a foul made onto myself, by W. I was really surprised he insisted there was no contact. I'm 95% sure I felt someone smack my right wrist area, but I didn't rebut his claim.

Sometimes one has to be reminded that being right is not as fulfilling as maintaining great friendships.

So I kept quiet and let it go.

I don't think he's weasel-ing his way out of a foul, but neither do I think I'm mistaken.. But does it really matter..?

But I love such life lessons, it keeps me grounded and allows me to learn to be a better person =]

Anyway, I just came back from a short trip in malacca. Weekend well spent, with great company and exuberant atmosphere! ^^

Bought a bag, t shirt and shades. I read somewhere that being relevant(fashion-wise, in this context) is key in getting a good first impression. I'm not a fan of being superficial, but I guess following the flow of such trends would be a wise move =]
(The stuff I bought are considered as cheap deals if converted into SG dollars anyway 😁)

There was a huge discussion and much were revealed. I just hope the parties involved are ready for the worst scenario.
And I'm glad Y didn't have to break a promise made. Promises are super vital in proving that one can be a reliable source of comfort and secrets-keeper. I learnt this the hard way :/

Moving on, aloy is gonna ORD soon liao! Time really flies, I can still vividly remember the day when he came into our office lol~ Justin + kw + myself psycho-ing him about the fact that his upper study is actually a monstrous octopus in disguise. Fun times HAHA! I guess the frequency of office visits will soon decrease, and such is life :S

Feeling so nostalgic now. Sigh. Sometimes I wish I could travel back in time and change some of my decisions made. But obviously I can't, and I'm slightly regretful.. :/

CNY is coming and I splurged almost $300 on new year clothes. I need to work ah~

Pretty much stopped relying on my folks for cash nowadays. In fact, pretty much stopped relying on them for anything. Relationships are not as close as in the past, but I don't think it would ever be the same again. Sometimes I think I'm being a little petty, but when I think of the bad times I had without support when I most needed it, the guilt disappears into thin air. Mostly.

L's issues have not been improving at all. In fact it seems to have worsened...
I just hope he can find the courage, wisdom and determination to move on..

School has started and I haven't really put in as much effort as I would have likes. Must study tmr liao la~

And I couldn't make a trip down to GPF last weekend, I die die must walk Daryl this coming weekend before he slips back into his old demanding self again..

Aaand it's 3 in the morning. Gah, there goes my sleep-earlier plans. Sigh.

Till next time!
