There were some news stating that a dog laid beside its dead master for days before it was discovered hungry and grieving. That is such the loyalty of your pet dog. It will not budge any further and will always stay loyal to its master - dead or alive. When I was small, I used to play with my aunt's pet dogs - an Alsatian pup and a Spitz. I love the warm furry bodies they have and the tail will wag non stop upon seeing me. Those were the naive days of childhood. Now my uncle had pass on in 2013, leaving my helpless aunt to fend for herself. She was used to being fetched around in a car with all bills settled by my uncle using his pension that it was a sorry state to be in - totally helpless. Now with time, she is coping better with friends by her side and people to fetch her around for shopping and she gets to manage her late husband's pension.

I have just printed out company profile, balance sheet for 2013, 3 months bank statements, letters of award, organisation chart, CIDB, Ministry of Finance certificate, etc. All of these filled up an 80-page pocket file that I bought yesterday. I also bought a set of black and coloured ink cartridges for this purpose. Then I slotted in the data sheets into each pocket and pasted the address on a large brown envelope including writing the address of the addressee on the courier service forms. Well, my job is almost done for today and now in my free time, update my blogs.

I love travelling and just came back from Terengganu. Went there by Air Asia and transit in KLIA2. The air fares for 2 persons cost almost $1,600 including hotel stay and rental of car at $130 from the air port. That is why I don't have kids and the freedom to travel at a minute's notice is what I have been doing these last 10 years. My business partner is not young any more and it is only a matter of time before he retires completely from work. At the ripe old age of 63, he is still helming the company, running the show and banking in workers' daily wages.

Just 2 days ago, I received an SMS supposedly from Bonuslink stating that I have won $19,000 from Shell. Being curious while apprehensive, I called the number given and was congratulated that I have won the money. The guy on the other side of the phone then quickly asked for my bank name and account number so that he 'can' bank in the prize money for me. Then what made me suspicious as I had expected all along was when he asked how much I have in my bank account. I refused to tell him and he persisted, saying that I will know how much I have made if there is a difference. I lied to him that I have only $1k and he sounded happy. Then he instructed me to go to an ATM machine and give him a call to teach me how to receive the money! What Balooney! Then I asked if he is a con man and to this he could not understand. So I ask if he is a 'penipu' to which he called me 'bodoh' and used an expletive which I responded in kind before hanging up.

Yesterday, I went to a pet shop showcasing and selling a pair of cute marmosets, a parrot, cats, fishes and not forgetting dogs. There was a very furry Pomeranian puppy that I was tempted of getting, but then again, the thought of maintenance, cleaning and feeding makes me think twice. Otherwise, I would have loved to pet and stroke the furry animal, whatever the breed.

The fishes were soothing to look at as they swim in their aquarium with sea weeds and other colourful receptacles decorating the aquarium with fluorescent lights and oxygen pump. The coloured pebbles also make a good eye-candy and delightful to see. I hope to visit the pet shop at least once every 2 weeks and get a glimpse of their lives and loyalty to their masters, especially dogs.
