Chinese New Year, Year of the Ox, A.D. 2009

While many people start to take the chance to make new year resolutions, I suppose I won't follow suit by making such things on this blog, since that wasn't meant to be the original purpose of this blog.

While there are still many oddity and weird scenes I am seeing on the streets lately, I have become very forgetful as of late due to my new job.

However, a few notable things worth mentioning (this is, afterall, a nitpicking blog):
1) 23rd January 2009: Spotted a white dead cat with no blood on its body lying beside a drain.
2) 26th January 2009: Spotted a roadkill on the road. It seemed to have been formerly a white cat with some black markings on its body. Couldn't really make sense of it, since its head was missing.
3) 28th January 2009: Saw a dog owner dragging her dog into a feet-washing area near the beach. Dog was desperately trying to get out of the area; owner was lifting the dog up by it's leash like a crane dangling an iron chain tied around a stack of pipes.

While I will try to keep up and include more nitpicks in this blog (most people start one, and the interest/effort/enthusiasm) dies down after a short while, I have to admit that I have been seeing less on the streets. Not because the people on the streets are getting nicer/happier/better/, but because I seem to have become "mabok" (wooden; unfeeling) to such sightings already...

However, I will do my best to keep this up for you (yes you, whoever you are) who still views this blog. :)
