Mexican Love!
Nina, thats her name.. she is the new love of my life! She is so adorable.. i spent most of my morning playing football with her! well.. not in the traditional sense ofcourse.. More like.. i would throw the ball she would grab it with her teeth and run about till i caught her and pulled it out of her mouth and threw it again! I swear i am gonna miss her if i move out of Daniel's place... the other part of the morning was spent just chatting with Dan's mum n browsing thru photos of her dogs when they were young! really adorable pics!! Plus the other dog is pregnant and will be giving birth in a month.. so i'll get to see the full litter of around 7 babies!
In the afternoon... i went on my first solo cab ride!! it enriched my vocabulary with phrases like.. "quiero ir a esta dirección" (i want to go to this place) .. "PARA AQUI!" (STOP HERE) .. "Cuanto?" (how much).. la otra vuelta (the other turn).. yup! Because of the heightened sense of paranoia infused by the lonely planet and my dear Singaporean friends, most of the cab ride i was silent, studying the cabby's facial expression, trying to infer his motives, whether he was reaching to change between gears or a knife to cut my heart open!! Anyhow.. i arrived in once piece at the mall, where i met LIA! It was pretty fun day, i tried more Mexican food, BURRITO was the pick for today... and yes.. i am still in love with the food! i ate like an hungry slave who had just been granted freedom after working 38 years building a pyramid! after which we went around shops.. and checked out random stuff.. ate ice-cream.. drank coke!(oh yes.. still faithful) all in all a pretty chilled day.. back home now! Checked out some emails with dan online about the apartment.. tomorrow we are gonna have a look at some!! Lets hope i'll be posting an house warming event soon! ... also tomorrow we are going to his friends place for a small party! should be fun :) Laterz!!

Eh the doggy very cute. Looks like Milo from The Mask. What is with your heightened sense of paranoia..stop being so melodramatic, haha relax and enjoy yourself lah. I'm sure the cabbies can smell your fear. Your kidneys and heart will be safe enough..for now. Muaha.
jack russells are about the only type of small dogs I can actually tolerate, most are annoying and yappy, so it's great that this guy likes playing futbol.
put up video-logs~!
Hero.. quite impressed with the posts.. guess ur more expressive when writing... shud have been a novelist wat engineering ur doin !
Ya man! novelist seem to lead such a chilled life. Sitting by the lakes of their summer homes, slipping on cappuccinos, banging away on the typewriters at a leisurely pace!!
That description seems to be straight out of the Johnny Depp movie....Secret Window..
