Seashell and her little adventure
I just collected 2 little female hamsters from Jiadi's friend's friend.
And I named them coral, and seashell, so that they names complement pebbles (:
Coral: pretty mild and adorable, whiter in colour, the older sister of seashell
And thats when I googled to find steps to lure Seashell out.
I set up food traps all around the house, with one in each room, the kitchen and infront of my piano.
I crinkled the aluminium foil and lay it beneath the pile of sunflower seeds. I think I hid say like 15-20 crinkled aluminium foil all around the house, especially in dark corners so that when Seashell scoots past, I can hear the sound.
I was really depressed and had a slight headache, probably cos I didn't sleep enough. After setting the traps, I attempted to sleep. But I jumped at every little sound I hear, wondering if that was Seashell, and scooting off in the direction of the sound, only to my dismay to discover that it was just the sound caused by the wind.
And while I was sleeping, my dad scooted into the room to tell me that he found Seashell!
(:
(:
(:
I was so happy! (:
Apparently Seashell was hungry and was went to the food trap in front of the piano to gobble up the sunflower seeds, and thats when my dad heard the crinkle of the aluminium foil and caught it!
Thats when I finally heaved a sign of relief. I was worried sick when she was missing and luckily she was found, if not I'll be still worried and sick at work.
I set it into its new little cage, with fresh shavings, water and sunflower seeds (imported from Japan. Good stuff! so don't run away again, seashell!)

Seashell: A more aggressive and hyperactive hamster, that bit her poor sister, Coral until she bled. And thats when I had to separate them and put Seashell in the shoebox since she attempted to attack Pebbles as well. Loves to take photos, and stay absolutely still infront of the lens.
Pebbles: A male hamster, that is about a year old. Pretty much of a silly hamster--> himbo. Very well behaved and doesn't bite. Occassionally bullied by Coral when Coral sits on his head and he lies still without moving.
Seashell peering out of her temporary shoebox house before I had the time to get her her new cage. And that must be when she plotted her escape!
Before I slept last night, at about 2am, I checked to make sure that all my babies are in their houses. But I woke up this morning to my horror that Seashell bit a hole through the top of the shoebox and escaped.
I was so frantic and was on all fours trying to search for seashell. I searched all the rooms, hall, kitchen, bomb shelter and to no avail. I was so depressed. I even let Coral and Pebbles out of the cage, hoping that they would bring me to Seashell, but to no avail ):

Bahaha, My birthday is coming up real soon =p
And I shall do up my wishlist so that I can work towards achieving them when I have enough moolah
1. Lavin perfume- Eclat d’Arpège
Eclat d’Arpège is classified as fruity-floral. Lanvin revives the musical theme of his legendary Arpege perfume. The composition is delicate, fragile and angelic. Eclat d’Arpège’s first accords are green lilac and Sicilian lemon leaves which transports us to the first day of spring. Summer’s near , flowers are in full bloom, the scent is more intense, it’s a wisteria blossom that blooms at perfume’s heart, accentuated by lush peach blossom and sensual red peony. Airy green tea leaves are refreshing. The base’s white cedar of Lebanon, gentle musk and precious amber are like an enveloping caress.
I first got it on my 21st birthday. It was the first perfume I had and used, and I fell in love with it. Its like love at first smell (:
2. Sushi Tei membership card
Sushi Tei has the most yummious sushi that I can afford.
Speaking of which, I haven't eaten Sushi Tei for ages.
*craves*
One of my favourites has to be the Dragon roll-The roll consisted of prawn tempura, crab stick and cucumber topped with unagi, avocado, tobiko (flying fish roe) and kabayaki sauce(eel sauce).
3. A nice watch that I can wear to work
I think this was the watch that Di was wearing the other day. And i thought it was really pretty (:
I do prefer leather strap watches more than those with metallic chains, though the current watch I have is that of a metallic watch from Esprit.
4. Clothes for work
-Jackets: e.g Tweed jacket:
-Work dresses/jump suits ( so that I do not have to rack my brains on deciding what to wear for work! and I certainy hope I can wear jump suits for work!)
A more formal work dress
A less formal work dress in turquoise! love the colour and the cutting of the dress
* images of clothes from lovebonito and lilypirates
5. Pretty and Comfortable heels for work. But seriously, heels are all so high and painful, and there are hardly any pretty yet comfortable heels around. sigh.
6. Have enough money to pay off my 'debts' due to my europe trip, and LASIK operation
7. Save enough for a little trip to travel overseas (e.g Bangkok/Redang)
8. Have enough to spend on a longer trip ( Japan/ Korea/ Taiwan)
And I shall do up my wishlist so that I can work towards achieving them when I have enough moolah

My little poem of yellow
source: weheartit.com
Yellow is the colour of the morning sun,
the shade of my vintage vest,
and the colour of the cheese in my tiny fridge
Yellow is the brother of my mustard shoes
and the sister of my sunny tube dress
with ruffles of chiffon
it forms my work outfit
and yellow is the colour of my mood,
when you smile at me (:
