Cloud

This month, I gave a tiny sum to Cloud, a sick Maine Coon mix cat in need of funds for his treatments. I hope he gets better soon.

Gratitude

1. Being able to wake up when I please
2. Not having to travel in traffic jams on the way home from work this session
3. Having no problem finding a parking space this session
4. Being able to feed the kitties
5. Having the kitty walk next to me and want to just be near me

Paperbacks

I love the feel of a paperback in my hand. Ebooks, while convenient, just doesn't give me the same feeling.

Seconds

I've just opened a new bag of kitty kibbles and it was a hit with my furpals. They finished their usual serving of food and asked for seconds. They wouldn't let me touch them but following me around as I walked is okay. In fact, one of them gets really close when she walks next to me that she sometimes touches my leg.

They kept following me and weaving around me. I would have liked to believe that they like me, but the truth is probably that they were hungry and wanted more of the lip smacking good food.

The message was clear --- they weren't about to let me go anywhere without promising to be back quickly with the second round of kibbles (they understood me when I gave them my word that I would be back with more). They followed me all the way to the side of the building and had to be told to stay in the dark and wait for my return with the loot.

Yes, I have turned into a cat servant or should I say the cats' servant (since there are a few of them) :)

Being held

Many, many years ago, when things were really dark for me, I had a dream. I got very little sleep during that time. In that dream, as I struggled to make sense of why things went suddenly so wrong in my real life, I felt someone hold me tight. I was sitting down alone and then I felt arms holding me. I couldn't see his face as he held me from behind but I knew that it was someone who loved me. He made me feel safe, that I belonged. I still remember that dream to this very day despite that dream having taken place more that 20 years ago...

Uniqlo Airism The World Votes Sampling Campaign Review

I received a free Uniqlo Airism camisole (Normal Retail Price RM 39..90) when I signed up for their Airism The World Votes Sampling Campaign where they were giving away 100,000 complimentary Airism tops worldwide.

I went to the store, selected a pretty pastel pink Airism camisole, showed the cashier my downloaded coupon on my phone and that was it.

I've since worn my Airism camisole twice. On both occasions, I wore it when I went out on my daily brisk walks. I layered it under a top as the camisole is super thin and too revealing to be worn on its own. It is thin enough to be layered under other clothes. I found that it didn't feel too hot even when layered under another cotton top.

This morning however, I noticed that there was pilling on the left side of my camisole where I normally carry my bag :( I was considering of getting a couple more Airism tops before noticing the pills as I love the top that I have but this pilling bit after just two wears is making me think twice about making a purchase. Hmmm..... come to think of it, my Uniqlo Heat Tech camisoles pilled after two wears as well.....
