this is not my pic. but it reminds me of the terrapins mum bought for us when we were in primary sch. we bought two. and i tink it was my stupid idea to name them tom and jerry.
mine was tom, i tink sis dont even rmb she had jerry. so tom n jerry lived in a blue pail, and then we got so sick of the shit cleaning part, their shit murky green in color. but it stunk so bad even i couldnt stand it. and tom grew so big and ugly, lucky reeko still v cute, so mum n dad drove us to this pond at mandai, and we jus let them free. and i stupidly cried on the way back, but after tt i was so happy tt i dont have to clean their shit anymore.
moral of the story, pets are not for lazy ppl. im serious. when i have to b home alone, b4 i go out, and once i reached home, i find myself busying over caring for reeko, and at some pt, i can spend up to an hour cleaning up his mess. and then sometimes i get so mad i wanna spank him bad but sometimes its jus the dog being a dog, peeing to show his territory etc. considering me being so lazy, i tink if i ever have my own house, i wont have a pet, tts for sure. they are cute and all but it is lyk having a baby tt nv grows up. it will be a heavy load if u r the only one taking care of the pet. lucky at home, its a shared responsibility.
of cos there are times they make you incredibly happy, like when u wake up, and ur dog will come to you for no reason at all, lyk saying gd morning and when u come back from work, he will be looking so excited to see u. and the stupid but v funny moments. and for me, it is especially when there is nobody at home, and reeko is there for me. i cant slp alone. but it is bad when im alone with him and he starts howling in the middle of the night. once he does this, i dont need to slp alr.
but if you really have to get a pet, do get a v cute one, u must see into the future tt he will remain as cute, lyk reeko hahahah. i'd say lucky sis was the one to pick him, if it were up to me to decide wad kinda dogs to buy, i'd prob bring home an ugly pug(how can it be so cute and ugly at the same time???).
and it is certainly not the price tt defines the quality/traits of your pet. a pricier dog doesnt mean a better dog. this is very true.
so often i find myself looking at pics of v v cute animals, but i noe i wont buy them, ever since having reeko at home. and the short lived lives of the 3 hamsters under my care.
any excessive bragging of reeko is unintentional. if you feel ur pet is v cute, good for you!
