Hello! Today's a public holiday! However, I seemed to have spent most of my time rotting at home. I watched TV this morning, a Hong Kong Drama Serial entitled "To Catch the Uncatchable" or something like that. Well, I was really a funny show, a good show to be exact. The male and female lead were both humourous! Sadly, the ending was a disappointment. The whole show seemed to be a comedy, but it ended with the male lead dying. *SoBs* The director failed to make a perfect ending to the show. The male lead had just woken up from his coma and was going to get married soon. If the whole show had just stopped here, it would have been great. But, somehow, it wasn't this way. He discovered that the blood clot in his head had moved to some fatal spot, and that he would die any minute. During the taking of their marriage photos, the camera was found to be spoilt. He went to give chase to a pick-pocket (he was a policeman) and died after calling his bride and telling her that he had caught the pick-pocket. He never made it back to take the photos. Such a tragic ending!
Anyway, I spent the rest of the day slacking around and doing nothing much. Oh..and I just finished the packet of nougat my aunty bought. This morning, I had a real big shock. You see, I have six hamsters and I'm totally in love with them. This morning, I went to see my favourites, Roundy and Pesty. Then I heard some strange sounds. I looked at the cage below and found that the sounds were coming from Quail. I was so frightened! My aunty and I brought the cage down and looked at him for a while. He continued making those strange noises that sounded very much like hiccups. We tried to get him to wake up and get up. He ignored us and continued lying on his back. We thought his time had come. Luckily, he got up slowly and moved into the house. We heaved a sigh of relief. My hamsters are really so cute. After a horrible day at school, I can always come home to see them. They eat, sleep and run on the wheel. They have nothing to worry about at all. How I wish I could be like them! If only my life was like that. Here are some pictures of my hamsters:
For the left column, the first hamster is Pesty, below him is Bean and right at the bottom, Quail.
For the right column, the hamster right on top is Roundy, below him is Rabbit and lastly Sappish.
I have a bad phobia of speaking in public. My palms get sweaty, my hands and legs start to shake. Sometimes, my mind even goes blank. The oral presentation examination for project work is coming up soon and the school has organised many rehearsals for us. Tomorrow is my third rehearsal and I still have the horrid feeling of butterflies in my stomach. I hate that feeling. How I wish I was more confident. My mum says it's because I lack confidence. I guess I do.
I have to go now. I want to go out shopping with my aunty. Being stuck indoors too long is unhealthy, I should go out and get some sunshine. Cheerio!
