the no 1 dog on my hate list is….undoubtedly …

yes…the chihuahua…
i feel like i want to squash them under my feet whenever i see one..

yupz..the owner was trying to show us how “smart” her pet is…
but poor thing…

it was still standing on its two hind legs after some time..
i wonder if it is not supposed to come back down to normal position without permission?..
or it just doesn’t know how to?..

duh……….

i haven’t seen any big dogs around in ho chi minh yet…
(not counting a few strays that i saw outside the city)
the kind of dogs that people were walking around were the small breeds…
yeah..small enough to go anywhere with the owner..
when the owner eat…
when the owner tries on shoes…
when the owner looks at clothes…
etc etc…

while i was having breakfast with mona on the 8th floor of our hotel…
a lady was literally “hanging out”….
(minus the ropes)

like o…m…..g……

she does it like a natural..
like a normal everyday thing…
i wonder if fear or danger went through her mind….
though if it doesn’t it might better too…
(don’t stir up any panic)

‘A giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) yawns in its enclosure at the Yuantong Zoo in Kunming, China. Wild pandas live only in remote, mountainous regions in central China. These high forests of bamboo (their primary food) are cool and wet—just as pandas like it.’

yeah…that’s me after lunch and back to sitting in front of the computer everyday…
