saturday post1a

good evening! em's final plodding total for saturday now stands?
@ 1031. sweet, i just passed one grand. :) anyways, the remainder of tonight's events?
-dad and i caught sth (bus/taxi) to cityplaza.
-first, i wheeled myself around some bookstore. did you know, all the books in hong kong are covered with plastic, meaning you can't open the books for a read!
-we met up with franco and cousin teresa, who hit the snack/candy bar for a hot dog (for franco) and a box of popcorn, then we entered the cinema.
-from right to left: teresa, franco, me then dad. i scored about three handfuls of popcorn until dad intercepted and gave the box back to cousin teresa.
-the movie was great! i think i understood most of the movie, and my favourite line comes from the mermaid girl to dorameon:"ummm ... are you a blue puffer fish?" haha! poor dorameon was so offended! "i'm a CAT!!!" he yelled. :P there was some really lovely music too, when ocean scenes were being played.
-after the movie, dad went to the loo first, then took me also, of course forcing me to dak myself.
-then, cousin teresa tootled us back to her place in kowloon city.
-slouched on their comfy sofa, i read a star wars: jedi apprentice novel franco dug out for me, until dinner was called and dad made me walk over to the din9ng table.
-dinner was roughly 1.5 bowls of yummy udon, with sliuced pork, charsiu made by first aunty, and some k9inda green (meaning i've forgotten which! >< :P)
-i continued reading franco's book. he wandered around to teach me how to play his beyblade models. where we used to say, "three, two, one, let 'em rip!" they now say, "three, two, one, go shoot!"
-dad took me once to the loo before he thrashed franco in a game of chinese chess. of course, he gleefully forced me to dak myself.
-cousin teresa drove us home. think we'll see her again come tuesday.
-i tootled online, and dearest dad's gone to pick up PIG mum, who went partying with her f:doubtless the parents'll force me to attend church with them. oh yeah, gotta ask PIG mum to find my cool badges that the pastor gave to me! it'll be the third week where i just sing in my head. dunno what's happening in the arvo or evening, but let's hope it's fun! HOPE EVERYONE HAS A SMASHING DAY TOMS!
CHEERS,
EM.
P.S. sorry, shrieking! >< :P

saturday post

good afternoon! em's been hard @ work plodding roughly 525 steps today. roughly, coz my HORRID PIG mum took away pedro (my pedometer!) meaning i've had to count aloud each step i take and try my hardest to remember the total. >-the parents and i caught some bus to cityplaza, where, for thefirst time in like, SIX years, i met up with hilary, florence and win jie jies!
-dinner was @ some chinese restaurant. food was nice, but there wasn't any rice! >,
-we were going to catch some bus home, but the bus service had alreadyfinished for the night. >< so we caught a taxi to the MTR station, and the parents got to make me walk up fifteen steps. even worse, after those fifteen steps, dunno why dad didn't lemme sit back into sparkless; instead, he let mum make me walk all the way to the elevator! >,
-that'swhen EVIL PIG removed pedro from me! meaning i've had to count every single step i took today. >< it's been hard, trying to remember the number of steps i've plodded! ><
-left side's debit, right side's credit. lol, i'm just trying to remember what ching ying's teaching me! :P
-PIG mum gave me a shower, then i hit the sack. zzz. :P
-this morning, i asked PIG mum to please help me go to the toilet. her excuse was that she had some toothahe, and sent dad to take me instead. dad of course gleefully forced me to dak myself, and made me wash both hands afterwards.
-but fourth aunty rang, and invited us out! so dad and i caught theMTR to mong kok, and had yum cha with some family: old old gradma, first, second and fourth aunties, fourth uncle, and ching and kin ying.
-dad only lemme eat a little, but hey, i'm satiated.
-we then wheeled me like, twenty minutes back to ... first aunty's new place? it requires me going up several steps, but hey. ><
-dad took me once to the loo on arival, of course gleefully forcing me to dak myself. then he made me wash and dry both hands, before he made me walk outside, where i crashed on the couch and hada yak to second aunty, while strong dad nearly broke poor ching ying's hand in an arm wrestle. :P
-cousin teresa's taking me to see the new dorameon (sp?) movie tonight! hope it' good! righteo, hopefully i can come bak later tonight!
cheers,

-PIG mum took me to the bathroom around 8am this morning, then i slept for one more hour with tonie. :)
-when i got up around 9am, PIG mum got me kitted then made me walk to the sink to brush my teeth, before making me walk to the toilet, also gleefully forcing me to dak myself. PIG mum actually passed me one mug of water - which i was very careful to hold 'correctly', of course - but i didn't feel like doing a stinky unspeakable. PIG mum made me walk over to wash and dry both hands, before making me walk over to the dining table.
-breakfast was one yummy bacon and egg mcmuffin, courtesy of dearest dad and one small cup of orange juice, which i got to hold 'incorrectly', coz PIG mum was yakking to someone on the phone ... aunty peggy, maybe?
-PIG mum made me walk over to the computer table, and i tootled online. she's also taken me to the loo twice more, meaning my plodding total for today(not including last night) stands @284.

-PIG mum was still having a shower, so dad made me walk outside first.
-i thought he'd lemme plop into sparkless just outside the door, but nope. then i thought he'd lemme sit into sparkless @ the elevator entrance, but nope, still wrong. then i thought he'd lemme sit into sparkless once inside sparkless, but nope. then i thought i could sit into sparkless once we exited the elevator, but still nope. all in all, dad more or less gleefully forced me to walk all the way to the entrance of the complex before finally letting me buckle gratefully into sparkless! he was so grumpy he decided that i'd only drink water that night, an i'd also haveta ask him for permission everytime i wanted to eat a morsel of food. like, argh. ><
-we caught the MTR to ... mong kok? where cousin karry met us and wheeled me to the restaurant. the parents gleefully forced me outta sparkless and made me walk into the restaurant.
-lol, turns out we all got to drink green tea. i did haveta ask dad for permission to eat every morsel of food i ate, but my definite favourite was the inari with pork floss inside! :D
-after dinner, dad and i wheeled me along the hong kong walk of fame, and we all posed for photos :D
-we caught the MTR home (karry says their aren't any direct buses to chai wan. why not?!)
-sorry, need to pee. bbl~

-we said our thanks and byes. hopefully, we can see them again before we fly back to brisbane!

-dad said i was only allowed to drink green tea for dinner, while he, aunty lai and PIG mum all drank coke. when i asked why, PIG mum snapped that i didn't move around as much as they did. my next question would've been, "well, did any of you guys get smited/smote down with a brain tumour like i did?!" but i thought the better of that and kept silent.
-i ate one yummy drumstick, two small slices of pork and one entire plateful of chinese vegetables. australia has better tasting gravy than hong kong, BTW.

-see, this morning, PIG mum took me to the toilet once, then left me back in bed as she and dearest dad rocked off to the book fair without me :(
-so i fell asleep with tonie again. oh, and i haven't told you the good news yet! this morning, before i fell back asleep, tonie told me some very awesome news: caramel had contacted him from heaven! like bear bear had promised, cremation didn't hurt, and he was now in heaven with grandma. :) grandma's house was very spacious with every imaginable furnishing possible, and yes, she had a car! the car came with a strapping young lad to drive dearest grandma around, and he also kindly helped grandma with her seatbelt and let her choose whichever music she wanted to listen to. :)@~ peace, i cuddled tonie and went back to sleep, counting
-@ 500, the bladder started calling. i asked it to wait; that the parents should be home soon, but @ 1100, i asked aunty lai to ring dad. i told dad i was busting and to please come home now! then i waited in bed and kept counting. @ 1400, PIG mum rang and said she was only @ WAN CHAI! ARGH, SHE PROLLY WENT AND BROWSED A FEW HUNDRED MORE BOOKSHELVES BEFORE MAKING HER LEISURELY WAY BACK TO argh, sorry, shrieking! >< wan chai. she finally made it back when my counting had just passed the 1700 mark.
-PIG mum got me kitted, made me walk over to brush my teeth, then made me walk to the toilet, also gleefully foring me to dak myself. two tinkles later, she made me walk out to wash and dry both hands, before grabbing ela and washing her again - argh, she prolly just wanted to gleefully force me to stand for longer. >< then she made me walk over to the dining room table, where breakfast was some 'jar leung'
(say that in canto
) and one mug of horlicks.
-PIG mum made me walk over to the computer table, and i tootled online, just as dearest dad returned home from the big bookstore.
-actually, @ 5:15, dad says i haveta get offline and let aunty lai practise putting on my AFO. only then, will he take me out tonight.
-which leaves me just under forty-five minutes to check my e-mail. anyways, will try my hardest to come back online tonight with the rest of today's events and my final plodding total!

-when the pastor indicated we could go in, dad and i wheeled me into the little room where grandma's body rested. i stood up like everyone else, and the pastor led prayers and hymns. i just stood there and silently told grandma how much i loved her, how i hoped she was happy in heaven with god and percy the angel/saint, and how i promised to try and work very hard to improve my mobility.
-back outside, the pastor led several more songs and prayers, then everyone got to see grandma one final time.
-then grandma and caramel were incinerated. lol, funny thing last night: when i was asleep last night, poor carmel started crying. tonie aked him, "what's wrong, buddy? you okay?" and poor caramel wailed, 'oh tonie, i don't wanna be all burnt! that'll hurt!!!" tonie immediately rang bear bear in australia, and found giant, who prodded bear bear awake. "hush, buddy," bear bear soothed caramel, "i promise you it won't hurt @ all. just a lil tickle." so carame's waiting for me and bear bear in heaven with grandma now." :)
-we went to some chinese restaurant for lunch. i ate: one small piece of pork crackling, roughly half a bowl of rice, some black fungi, some melon, lotsa greens, some chicken and roughly three small but delicious chunks of sweet and sour pork. i also drank one bowl of some fancy soup.

good afternoon! (it's six minutes past midday, see ;p) anyways, i'm considering it a miracle that i'm even online right now; PIG mum honestly refuses to gimme a break from the moment i wake up till the moment i collapse into bed, extremely grateful towards percy the angel/saint for helping me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through the day, all for her.

-dinner was @ some chinese restaurant called tai hing.
-i drank one small bowl of soup, and ate: just over one bowl of rice, three small but yummy chunks of sweet and sour pork, some fried fish, lotsa broccoli and lotsa little tong vegetable. lol, i dr5ank a cold milk tea(PIG mum had one slurp); the cool thing? it comes out hot, in a bowl of ice, which slowly cools the drink!
-PIG mum took me once to the loo after dinner.
-ice-cream night means an oreo mcflurry from maccas! :D dad got himself one too; when PIG mum saw, she said, "ugh, not for me, thanks." so i presumed she didn't want any of mine, either.
-dad and i wheeled me back up to the bus stop, where we waited for aunty lai lin's bus to take her back up to north point, where she lives. aunty lai lin's actually a registered nurse just like PIG mum, she works two or three days per week @ some health clinic.

-PIG mum took me once to the loo when we got home, made me wash and dry both hands, then made me walk back to sunny's laptop. she's forcing me off to bed @ 10:30, meaning i've got just under fifteen minutes to get my facebook fix. :P
-oh noes! aunty nga just rang - poor little mickey has a high fever! ><
-toms: absolutely nothing. hong kong has a typhoon warning! when i asked PIG mum what'll we do, she said, "easy. you get some rope and tie yourself to me. then i'll tie myself to dad.' and what about dad? "oh, dad can tie himself to a large rock." lol, i've zero idea where dad might find this large rock from, but if you never hear from me again, you can presume i got blown away by the typhoon. anyways, hope everyone's having a smashing week!

-back in bed, i released poor ela from her prison, tucked her thumb gently inside for some sleep, then found tonie (for someone who likes to sleep on my chest so he can hear my heartbeat, why is he always around my knees in the morning? mkessy sleeper! :P) and snored my head off :P until 'twas time to go see eclipse!

THE PARENTS AND I SHARED SOME4 CRUMBED CHICKEN CUTLET WITH MAYO ON BREAD AND SOME HAMBURGER THING (LIKE THE THING I ATE LAQST TIME) sorry, sheieking! ><
-THEN WE JUST WENT AROUND AND AROUND THE SHOPS. I HAD GOOD FUN @~ the brisbane book centre again. i also found some cafe/bakery thing with a chocolate croissant(sp?) and a pineapple danish, so much thanks to dad who bought me those - although he said i haveta share them and i'm not allowed them all for myself. :( oh well.
-aunty lai had gone home first; think some church sisters were visiting her.

-PIG mum took me once to the loo on arrival, then we just bummed around until we caught up with dearest dad.
-more bumming around, until we stopped @ maxim's for dinner. i chose a pork mince rice with one fried egg; dad chose this bird's nest dish and we shared some between us. i wanted to drink horlicks again; duno why dad said no. :( then i decided on an iced milk tea, dunno why dad only got me this (unsweetened) green tea. i asked dad what the bird's nest was made of; he replied "vermicelli" then i asked "since when was vermicelli bright yellow?" PIG mum leaned over and whispered, "duh, food colouring!" :P
-PIG mum took me once more to the freezer toilet before we left.
-we caught the MTR home, meaning the parents made poor em clamber up more than ten steps coz that station doesn't have a lift. ><

tuesday post

good afternoon! firstly, one big huge THANK-YOU!!! to my three meter tall cousin, who kindly lent us his laptop for use after aunty lai's computer suddenly decided to die this morning! ><
-anyways, em's been hard @ work plodding 1017 steps today. righteo, today's events?
-firstly, thanks to PIG mum who helped me once to the toilet this morning.
-back in bed, i tucked poor ela's thumb gently inside finally for some sleep, rescued tonie from my knees and placed him back over my heart, then snored my head off until just after 10am.
-PIG mum got me kitted, made me walk over to brush my teeth (help - toothache! ><) made me walk to the toilet, also gleefully forcing me to dak myself. but thanks to PIG mum who passed me two mugs of water - both of which i was very careful to hold 'correctly', of course - and i did a stinky unspeakable. PIG mum came back, made me walk over to wash and dry both hands then made me walk over to the dining table.
-breakfast was one yummy sausage bun plus one mug of horlicks.
-dad brought me the south china morning herald, and i started reading that while he and PIG mum rocked out to date. :P
-thanks to aunty lai who flipped on the canto news @ 12:30. and, after the news, she cooked me two minute noodles for lunch! even better, she made me one mug of horlicks with three teaspoonfuls of the stuff! PIG mum only ever gives me barely two, see/
-aunty lai suggested a nap after lunch, and i complied, coz i was suffering from early onset of 3:30-itis.
-but i didn't fall asleep, and got PIG mum to take me to the loo when she and dearest dad arrived home.
-lunch was one iced green tea, and a mini hot dog - strangest thing, ppl from hong kong don't put tomato sauce into their hot dogs - they put MAYO! another good thing was that PIG mum said i was alloed to enjoy the yummy mini hotdog all for myself. :)
-dad took me to the loo once afterwards, as did PIG mum, who kindly passed me another two mugs of water, and i did another stinky unspeakable.
-PIG mum gleefully forced poor em to un-dak herself, made her walk over to wash and dry both hands, then made me walk back to the computer.
-wow, it's almost 6pm!
-hopefully, the parents will take me out for dinner tonight. i know horrid PIG mum has already refused to take me for dinner @ PIZZA HUT, BUT I'VE BEEN COOPED INSIDE ALL DAY! sorry, shrieking! ><
-anyways, hopefully i can come back online with the rest of tonight's events and my final plodding total!
cheers,

good evening! em's final plodding total for monday now stands @ 3399. excuse me that i'm too lazy to get up and plod one more step to make my final plodding total 3400. :P anyways, the rest of today's events?
-when the parents arrived back @ aunty lai's flat, the first thing dad was gleefully force me off the computer and happily jump online himself.
-lunch was a yummy chicken sausage bun! meaning i've tried thus far: normal (pork) sausage buns, chicken sausage buns and mini sausage buns (a bun with two mini sausages). i just drank one plain mug of milk 'incorrectly'; dunno why PIG mum refuses to lemme drink two cups per day. i'd really wanted a horlicks. :(
-PIG mum took me once to the loo first (i did a stinky unspeakable) before we all caught a taxi to cityplaza to meet up with aunty lai wah!
-argh. >< about two ,meters into the shopping mall, dad forced me outta sparkless and made me walk forever to meet up with aunty lai wah. :(
-another argh was that dad had PROMISED that the meal i had from fairwood was all mine - NO CONDITIONS ATTACHED! >< only PIG mum got pissed with me that i didn't wanna wash ela, just era, and prolly ratted me out to dad. meaning i got less than half of my choice: yummy roast duck leg with rice. but i drank a yummy pearl milk tea. :)
-when we were chatting with aunty lai wah, poor em got majorly dissed by the parents, of course. >< but i'd already steeled myself for that during our taxi ride to cityplaza, meaning i just sat quietly while the parents happily had a go @ me. :(
-after lunch, aunty lai and i went to the bookstore! it's called the hong kong sth. i flicked through two pages of artemis fowl; i know i read some of his books back in highschool, but i've since forgotten.
-but the aircon there was F-F-F-REEZING!!! >< i told dad that when he came into the bookstore to check on me; also that i needed the loo.
-dad got PIG mum. she and aunty lai wah took me to the toilet once. zero thanks to PIG mum who gleefully forced me to dak myself. i wonder if she did that just to proudly show aunty lai wah the power she has over me?
-back to the bookstore after the loo trip. lol, i found some book about crossdressing! about the men that potrayed the ladies in chinese opera, see.
-we were going to dinner, dad was just about to gleefully force me to walk to an escalator, when some kindly gentleman pointed us in the direction of the lift. so i wheeled myself around looking for it; dad for whateverso reason that so pleased him refusing to help me out @ all; in fact, he sent aunty lai and PIG mum down to grab dinner themselves first.
-when i finally made it downstairs, PIG mum had four yummy boiled dumplings ready for me, but refused to find me any soya sauce. :( and this time, 'twas dad who demanded sth to eat - i fed him one slice of shallot.
-we caught the MTR home, meaning the parents got to make me walk up thirteen steps. ><
-back @ aunty lai's flat, PIG mum made me walk into the bathroom and gleefully forced me to undak myself. then she gave me another searingly hot/freezingly cold shower - i washed mu hair today.
-i got dried and rekitted before PIG mum made me walk back outside. i tootled online.
-well, PIG mum says she's forcing poor em off to bed @ 10pm, meaning i've got just over thirty minutes to get my facebook fix and check my e-mail.
-toms: lol, nothing's planned. dad suggested going walking downstairs. hell, i'd much rather sleep all day with tonie, in that case! actually, if nothing's planned, i'll see if i can persuade the parents to take me somewhere. fingers crossed! anyways, hope everyone has a great day toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

-thanks to PIG mum who helped me once to the loo this morning.
-i slept until 9:20am this morning.
-PIG mum got me kitted, made me walk over to the sink to brush my teeth before making me walk to the toilet. three tinkles later, PIG mum made me walk over to wash and dry both hands, before making me walk to the small eating table. dad was using the net.
-breakfast was one yummy bacon and egg mcmuffin and one mug of horlicks, which i got to hold 'incorrectly' coz PIG mum was too busy yakking on the phone with someone to take notice of what i was doing. too bad, though, she ripped off all the labels so i couldn't see how much horlicks to put into the cup. milo says three heaped teaspoonfuls; PIG mum gave me two barely level teaspoonfuls.
-aunty lai wah rang PIG MUM WHEN SHE WAS STILL TALKING - sorry, shrieking! >< - on the phone with someone; dad answered and said he'd get PIG mum to ring her back. such a short conversation, and he still managed to diss me!
-PIG mum rang aunty lai wah back, and we're gonna meet her for arvo tea @ cityplaza! lol, i wish she'd bring chris again so i can pinch his chubby little cheek. :P
-well, the parents have just rocked off for some shopping of their own, leaving me with aunty lai. i asked PIG mum please if she could bring some lunch back for me, but dad refused! argh, i dunno. hopefully, they will, else i'm gonna tuck into a BIG arvo tea once we meet up with aunty lai wah @ cityplaza!
-PIG mum took me once more to the loo before she and dad rocked off. meaning my newest plodding total for monday's now 843. anyways, i hope to come back online later tonight with the rest of today's events!
cheers,

actually, coz i went to the loo once more, my final plodding total for sunday's really now 1935. it's almost 9:30 now, dunno why PIG mum and aunty lai still aren't back yet ...lol, my bum's starting to ache from sitting on this hard wooden chair for several hours today ... :Pwell, i still dunno what's in store for toms, but i'm hoping yum cha's not part of the plan! and lol, dad just forced me to tilt my head up and backwards several times coz i've been sitting and staring @ the computer screen for too long. i did ten, then stopped. coz he didn't order me to continue, guess he's fallen back asleep ... but where's PIG mum?! it's just past 10:30 and she still shows no sign of returning ... :S well, if she's still not back by 11pm, i'm getting dad to ring her.
actually, PIG mum rang first. she's heading home with aunty lai now. :) dad's ordering me to shut down the computer now. i'll do that once i hear her arrive; i'm just logging out of everything now. so yeah, dunno what i'm doing toms, but hope it'll be good! hope everyone has a smashing week!

sunday post

good afternoon! wm's been hard @ work plodding 1356 steps today, and the spam count for the weekend's thirty-two, but i hope i can come back with more update versions tonight. righteo, today's events?
-thanks to PIG mum who helped me once to the loo this morning. after the loo trip, i just decided to crash on the pallet that dad usually sleeps in, coz he'd already gone out.
-awhile later, PIG mum dug me up, got me kitted, then made me walk to the kitchen to brush my teeth. afterwards, she made me walk to the loo, also gleefully forcing me to dak myself. two tinkles later, she made me walk over to wash and dry both hands, before making me walk to the very tiny dining table.
-breakfast was another yummy sausage bun and one mug of horlicks.
-yup, as predicted, no luck here, PIG mum forced me to attend church. but @ least i got to attend in sparkless. :)
-PIG mum made me walk up three steps to the church hall before i got to take a seat.
-service started. that's the 1st week where i chose not to sing aloud. fifty-one weeks left. but my heartfelt gratitude to PIG mum who didn't gleefully force me to stand.
-my conversational canto's improved dramatically since god tried to murder me, but not my formal! >< meaning i just sat and listened to reverend lam talk about ... sth? ^^"
-after service finished, PIG mum took me once to the loo, seated back in sparkless, i had a yak to the pastoress, then the pastor, where i got the chance to thank him sincerely for allowing me to sing 'amazing grace' for dearest grandma's funeral. actually, i complimented him on his cool badge - he's got this C&MA one - and he went and gave me several! meaning i'll wear them to church when i'm back in brisbane.
-thanks to the pastor who just gently levered me down the three steps exiting the church. i then told PIG mum that i was starving, and could we please hurry up and have lunch.
-@ the shopping centre, the aunties and little mickey were just gonna have maccas, but i noticed a fairwood next door, and asked PIG mum if i could please eat there - and she said yes!
-i had a pork and corn with rice, and drank a cold horlicks (which basically, was just a hot one topped with ice), while PIG mum had a sweet and sour pork, drinking a lemon water. we traded a bit each.
-aww! when we went back to maccas, little mickey pig :P was chomping his chips. says i, "mickey, can you please give biu jie a chip too, please?" and he immediately grabs one, dunks it into some ketchup and pops the chip into my mouth! not only that, while i'm munching the chip, he does the same to a second chip and feeds me that too! *is a melted puddle of goo now* little mickey loves me! :D funniest thing? PIG mum notices, and asks, "sum ming (his canto name) doesn't yee ma (what he calls her) get one too? he reluctantly picks up one chip, doesn't dunk it into any ketchup, breaks off the burnt bit, and gives that to her! *ROFL* :P
-PIG mum and i leave first. first, we hit the bakery, where i grab some yummy bun for arvo tea. then i buy one (maybe two) mickey shirts @ some shop.
-PIG mum takes me to the loo once before we head home. lol, you should've heard her whinge, whine and complain about how hard it was to push me uphill! actually, so much was her suffering, she decided, she lemme push myself back into aunty lai's flat once we were on level ground. hey, no biggie. era just worked super-hard, while erf kindly left her footplate to do the steering.
-back inside, PIG mum made me walk into the loo and forced me to drink one mug of water. i complied, of course, but didn't need to do a stinky unspeakable. so PIG mum made me walk out to wash and dry both hands, before making me walk back to the computer desk.
-i rang dearest dad, let him know that PIG mum and i were safely back @ home. think he's coming over later tonight. fingers crossed that we can head out somewhere yummy for dinner!
-dunno what's happening toms. will try and ask PIG mum tonight then come back. but just in case that's not possible, hope everyone has a smashing week!

good evening! em's final plodding total for saturday now stands @ 4686. righteo, the rest of today's events?
-before we left to meet aunty selina, PIG mum took me once to the loo. leaving was a slight hassle, coz dad made me walk to the elevator before letting me sit in sparkless. but after numerous threats to not lemme out to see aunty selina/garfield, from dad, we caught a taxi to city plaza.
argh. >< just inside cityplaza, the parents forced me out of sparkless and made me walk to meet aunty selina, making me walk up several escalators. even worse, when we finally met up with aunty selina/garfield :P dad STILL refused to lemme back into sparkless! >< dad just pushed sparkless away and let PIG mum make me walk all the way to lunch.
-originally, the was to have lunch @ cafe di coral - but PIG mum made me walk to some yum cha restaurant instead, 'claiming' that aunty selina didn't wanna eat cafe di coral.
-but dad said he'd take me to cafe di coral for lunch afterwards. so i just sat @ the table and waited, not taking anything to eat for myself, but just waiting for dad to pass me one bite. meaning i had some yellow cake ('mar lai gol' in canto), half a charsiu bun, and some other nibblies.
-dad and i left PIG mum and went to grab me some lunch @ cafe di coral. first, though, we stopped @ some music shop and browsed some CDs. luckily, we didn't come across any andy hui. :P dad checked westlife's discs; i confirmed i already owed everyone he showed me. hey, jacky cheung has a new album out! must ask PIG mum if she'll lemme buy it!
-@ cafe di coral, i ordered some pork chop burger with a chicken wing and a pearl milk tea; dad got himself this red bean fleecy (i think that's what they're called). then we wheeled around and around looking for a table.
-when the food arrived, i tucked into my lunch. dad whined that he'd already given me some of his yum cha, so i gave him my burger and he took one big chomp. same again with the chicken wing.
-aunty selena and PIG mum joined dad and i. aunty ann (the other lady who'd joined us for yum cha) said farewell and left.
-aunty garfield has one daughter, joyce? who's nineteen and studies accounting (or sth with numbers) in canada. aww, how sweet - she gets to ring her mum every night! *sigh* i remember PIG mum only allowed me to ring dearest grandma twice a week, and sometimes only even once .. what i would give to be able to ring her again and hear her loving voice ... :(
-rolls joined us, and when we left, he invited us up to his place. first, though, PIG mum had him ring first aunty and see if that was okay (sth about when there's a death in the family, it's considered unlucky to go visit another household) whether or not we'd be welcome to visit. she said yes. :)
-so dad and i wheeled me up to the chau's residence. as expected, little ashley was snoring her head off :P. first aunty had the television open to some cartoon, and was chatting to carrie.
-the parents made me walk inside, and i crashed on the couch.
-awhile later, ding dong! cousin karry arrived also. lol, turns out she missed her chiropractor appointment coz she ... overslept! :P
-so we just yakked away till it was time to leave for dinner. PIG mum took me once to the bathroom first, then rolls led the way to tuesday (yup, interesting name for a restaurant, hey? :P)
-dinner was with: cousin teresa, uncle sickdick :P and franco, cousin karry, first aunty, rolls, my parents and i.
-cousin teresa lemme pick the pasta: i chose this one with white sauce and chicken. then, for dinner, i got: some yummy chicken, one wee chunk of beef, some yummy pasta, one lil chunk of garlic bread, and several leaves of caesar salad. i asked PIG mum if i could please order a yummy drink, but she gleefully refused, leaving me to just drink water. oh well.
-after dinner, PIG mum took me once to the bathroom. when i asked her if we could please order one desert to share, she said to ask dad. when i tried asking dad, he said that everyone had already decided that we wouldn't. when i pointed out that i was part of 'everyone' but hadn't been asked, he said i could ask first aunty. but i have my suspicions... did he already tell her 'no' in advance? coz when i asked her, she first invited everyone to franco's house for dessert. meaning i dunno why we just caught the MTR home.
-i tried to leave one stop early to save me the struggle of climbing up the steps, but nope, the parents refused. >< so they made poor em hike up fifteen steps. ><
-but i saw a maccas, and asked if we could please stop there for dessert. dad said only if i got up from where i was now and walked into the store. *sigh* so i did.
-dad came back with an oreo mcflurry (mc ship wind in canto; or mc wind ship? the first, i think). which we shared between us three.
-dad wheeled me back to aunty lai's apartment (PIG mum wouldn't lemme wheel coz it had been raining and the floor was slippery).
-i tootled online.
-toms: i honestly hope we don't haveta attend church! but we prolly will, whatever. too bad grandma's not here anymore to say i don't haveta stand for worship. :( but there's no way i'll sing anything. not sure what we're doing in the arvo or evening, but hope it's good! hope everyone enjoys their day toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

saturday post

googood morning! em's only been hard @ work plodding 845 steps today, but hopefully i'll have passed one grand by tonight! anyways, today's events?
-thanks to PIG mum who helped me once to the loo early this morning. back in bed, i snored my head off :P with tonie until dearest dad came home with breakfast!
-PIG mum got me kitted, made me walk over to brush my teeth, then made me walk to the loo. zero thanks to her who gleefully forced me to dak myself, but thanks to her who passed me one mug of water so i could do a stinky unspeakable. actually, i was very careful to take the mug 'correctly' when she passed me the mug, but once she left i slipped my pointer out to drink the mug 'incorrectly'. but i was very careful to stick my pointer back inside the ear before i returned the mug to PIG mum, yes.
-PIG mum made me walk over to wash and dry both hands, before making me walk to the dining table.
-breakfast was several yummy jar leung (say that in canto) and one mug of yummy horlicks, another mug i got to hold 'incorrectly' coz PIG mum was too busy yakking to aunty nga on the phone to take notice of me.
-after breakfast, PIG mum lemme pop online. later, she had me try on the pair of new shoes she bought me; black new balance with this gold 'N'on the side: it's VERY fancy looking!actually, she made me plod several paces in them, just making sure that they fit.
-the parents have gone to give grandma's false teeth and other stuff to someone. thanks to PIG mum who asked the funeral guy for me; yes, caramel can be placed in the coffin along with grandma. and yes, i had a long talk with caramel, telling him good-bye, thank-you very much for your help, and please keep grandma good company.
-PIG mum took me once more to the loo before she and dad left.
-it's only 10;30am right now! in the arvo, we're meeting up with aunty selina/aunty garfield, then, @ night, we're having dinner with a whole bunch of family! anyways, will try my best and hardest to come back online tonight!
cheers,
em. ^^

friday post1c

good evening! my final plodding total for friday now stands @ 3165, and the spam count for the week's 136. righteo, the rest of today's events?
-dinner: two chicken wings, 1.75 slices of yummy pizza from pizza and chicken (not pizza hut!), lotsa little tong vegetable. i drank two little cups of apple juice with aloe vera.
-i asked dad if we could head home after dinner, but fourth aunty said i had to have desert first. so i had one little sticky rice cake/dumpling and one small teaspoon of mango pudding. lol, 'twas hilarious - @ first, cousin karry said there was mango sauce for the sticky cake/dumplings, but when i dipped mine into the little container, nothing came out. "that's weird," said karry. she took the whole container and turned it over - and nothing fell out! "hahaha!" she laughed, poking the 'sauce', "it's actually mango pudding!" so i ate one small teaspoonful of that.
-after dinner, dad just kept yakking. 'twas almost 9pm when he finally decided that we could leave!
-karry and dad took me once more to the loo first, before karry accompanied us to the bus - phew, this, too, had a platform. but karry - she's seeing a chiropractor toms coz she's busted her neck! o_O
-dad yakked on his mobile for the ride home. i just closed my eyes and sang both my favourite and second favourite songs in my head, opening my eyes for all the important numbers.
-dad and i wheeled me back home; PIG mum helped me with a shower - i washed my hair tonight. unsurprisingly, she 'forgot' my pedometer again, but that's okay. i remembered it. :)
-i came back online while the parents each had their showers also.
-toms: dunno what we're doing in the morning ... i wonder if i've any chance @ all of asking PIG mum to take me out to cityplaza? well, it can't hurt to ask. then, in the arvo, we're meeting aunty selina, one of PIG mum's nurse mates! lol, silly dad calls her aunty 'garfield' coz she's got big sleepy eyes like garfield. :P i told him to be careful of how he said things to ppl, but he assured me that he's more than capable of looking after himself. best of all, toms night we're having dinner with cousin teresa, franco and uncle sickdick :P somewhere! hopefully, i can eat my head off (hey, i know that won't happen, but it never hurts to dream, hey? :P)! righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
cheers,
em. ^^

friday post1b

-after one more loo trip, dad took me out to fourth aunty's!
-we caught the bus - best thing was that the bus had this foldable ramp available for wheelchairs, eaning i didn't haveta get outta sparkless.
-actually, both dad and i fell asleep for the bus ride! luckily, dad woke up befoe we missed our stop! :P
-hmm ... this keyboard has a slight problem with the letter 'm'. so if soe words look somewhat disjointed, that's why.
-fourth aunty and uncle met us soewhere near their place. dad made e trudge up several steps instead of finding the ramp, hey, whatever.
-inside fourth aunty's house, i met fourth uncle's mu! she says just to call her 'mah ah' like ching and kin ying do. and she's pretty special - she's got great-grandkids!

-i got: one whole charsiu bun for myself! also one bowl of thick vermicelli with three chunks of yummy roast duck, half a chinese donut (the sugary stuff and ... yeah, i think that's all. *zero* thanks to dad, who HEAVILY restricted what poor e could and couldn't eat! believe me, there were any, MANY, more couldnt'ss than coulds>< but he got to eat his happy head off! lol, think i'm jealous. :P
-dad and i wheeled me back home. i needed to pee badly, but dad was too lazy to wipe down the toilet seat for me @ the shopping centre, then, once hoe, he said i had to let grandma use the loo first. when i finally used the loo, he gleefully forced me to dak yself.
-yay, then i tootled online! and i got an e-ail fro helen! even better, she says she's ailed e one picture of her with their caravan! that's one thing iu'm looking forward to seeing when i get back hoe!
-dad came with dettol and disinfected me. :P i asked him to please take me to the toilet; he did, but of course gleefully forced me to dak myself also. the plus side was that i realised i could reach over to wash era without having to stand up.
-anyways, fourth aunty's ordered pizza for dinner tonight! and she says she's making spaghetti with white sauce, too! yuyum~
-i think dad plans to boot me offline coz he wants to use the net hiself; oh well. anyways, will try my hardest to coe back online tonight with my final plodding total - oh yeah, y newest final plodding total, after the loo trip's 1698.

wednesday post

good morning! again, it's rare that i get to come online in the morning, but PIG mum's reclining on the sofa, talking to aunty lai, so here i am, online.
-anyways, i've been hard @ work plodding 527 steps today. not a lot yet, but hopefully i'll've passed one grand before the day's out. anyways, events for today?
-thanks to PIG mum who helped me once to the loo around 8:30 this morning.
-back in bed, she asked me if i was ready to get up, only i was feeling sleepy still (and lazy :P) so i mumbled sleepily, "how about 9am?" PIG mum tried @ 9:00 to rouse me awake, but i was still out of it and murmured, "9:15 ..." :P only then, aunty lai lin rang PIG mum! meaning i didn't get up till about 9:30. :P
-PIG mum got me kitted, made me walk over to the sink to brush my teeth, then made me walk over to the loo for one long tinkle. then she made me walk back to the table.
-she forced me to drink half a mug of water first, before breakfast was one yummy sponge cake aunty nga had picked up from the nakery. i also drank one mug of milk 'incorrectly' (PIG mum was too busy surfing the net to take notice of me)
-oh yeah, i've signed back up for TWFT! the topic today was 'make yourself @ home, lord (2)'
-anyways, we're off to cheung chau soon! PIG mum's leaving me with some former classmate of hers while she and dad do sth for grandma. anyways, will try my best to come back online later tonight with the rest of today's events!
cheers,
em. ^^

tuesday post 1d

good evening! em's final plodding total for tuesday now stands @ 2298. forgive me if i can't be bothered to get up and plod two more steps to make my final plodding total for tuesday an even 2300 steps. :P anyways, the rest of today's events?
-i bummed around facebook until PIG mum woke up. :P she took me to the loo once more, i got to sit back in sparkless finally, and we set off!
-first, PIG mum took us to some park she frequented with grandma last ime she came back.
-next we hit some random shopping centre. jade shopping centre? sth like that, anyway.
-i told PIG mum i was starving, and she lemme buy some bread from this bakery - i chose a cheesy sausage bun! 'twas yummy; too bad, PIG mum demanded one bite.
-we just went aimlesly around the shopping centre until aunty nga met us. someone decided we'd hit some japanese udon place for dinner.
-i ordered a chicken chop in udon with tomato soup. after ordering, i asked PIG mum to please help me use the loo. then, she dissed me coz i asked to go the back way instead of heading up the three steps along the way. in my defence, i saw an escalator right after the three steps; who knows how many more steps i'd haveta struggle through before i reached the loo. for her petty revenge, PIG mum refused to lever sparkless up one shallow bump, instead gleefully forcing me to walk into the loo.
-back inside the restaurant (hey, the waiters and waitresses have been taught to call out 'irashaiimase!) PIG mum's food arrived first. thanks to her who offered me one udon noodle strand and one wee chunk of beef; her reason became apparent once my food arrived: i hadn't even had time to pick up my fork and start eating before she immediately one long strand of udon back. hey, no biggie.
-more steps to head up before we left. hey, maybe i saw wrong, but do maccas soft serve cones now come with topping? in that case, i must try one out toms! well, if PIG mum finds her heart and lets me have one tomorrow. unsurprisingly, she spent the trip back to aunty lai's flat engaging in her favourite topic: dissing me. >< argh, if my skin wasn't thick enough to withstand all her barrage everyday, who knows what i might've done to myself by now?! ><
-PIG mum made me walk back into aunty lai's flat. i went to the loo, so of course she gleefully forced me to dak myself.
-then she gave me a shower - i washed my hair tonight. lol, the water here's funny: one second, it's barely lukewarm, the next, searingly hot!
-i dried myself, PIG mum got me all kitted before i stood up and used the loo. can't really remember why she refuses to just get elf kitted in her sock, AFO and shoe and lemme use the loo; lol, prolly sth about her poor suffering back being unable to withstand all the stresses of helping me out with a shower. oh well, no biggie, i can endure that for her.
-PIG mum made me walk back out to the computer and went to take a shower herself. i bloody well hope she remembers to turn off the water everytime she washes her hair/showers herself, like she does for me!
-toms: think the parents are heading out to cheung chau to arrange more things for dearest grandma's funeral. PIG mum said she'd try to leave me with one of her high school classmates, who's a tailor now? dunno what's in store for the arvo/evening, but i hope it's good!
-one final thing: tonie has ordered me to write down how traumatised he was after little mickey pig threw him into the bin! :P luckily, uncle fung and aunty nga saw, and with one quick trip into the washing machine and dryer, tonie was as good as new. :P but if little mickey tries to play with tonie afterwards - actually, did i write how smart he was? after i introduced him to tonie on monday, we had lunch. after lunch, he was just wandering around, and i called out, "hey mickey, where's tonie?" and the smart brat immediately remembers/understands and fetches him for me! but yeah: tonie says if little mickey pig throws him into the bin anymore, i'm to take him away and not let mickey play with him anymore. :P
-anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

-this morning, PIG mum took me to the loo once. dad was already gone ... @ 6:50am!
-but i didn't sleep till 4pm again. :P nope, by 9am, i decided that i'd enough sleep and got up, just as dearest dad returned home - turns out he'd gone to breakfast yum cha all by his lonesome self!
-PIG mum got me kitted, made me walk out to the sink to brush my teeth, then made me walk to the toilet, also gleefully forcing me to dak myself.
-after two tinkles, PIG mum made me walk over to wash and dry both hands, before making me walk over to the table.
-breakfast was one mug of milk - which i got to hold 'incorrectly' coz PIG mum was too busy discussing travel plans with dearest dad - and some fried rice noodle (say 'cheung fun' in canto). too bad, no sweet sauce, but hey.
-PIG mum made me walk over to the computer table, and i tootled online. the parents went to talk to some pastor about grandma's funeral arrangements.
-when they come back ... think dad's off to visit his side of the family. hopefully PIG mum'll take me out to tai koo shing to buy my bottle of horlicks! righteo, will try my hardest to come back later today!

monday post 5b

good evening! em's final plodding total for monday now stands @1962. righteo, the rest of tonight's events?
-when dinner was called, i had approx. 1.5 bowls of rice, lotsa little tong vegetable, some fish and about three small slices of yummy charsiu. then i drank this popper - white grape juice, i think 'twas.
-PIG mum took me to the loo once more before we said our goodnights and goodbyes. the parents made me walk all the way down to the road, where aunty lai had hailed a taxi.
-lol, i wonder why backseat passangers aren't required to wear seatbelts in hong kong?
-the parents made me walk all the way up to aunty lai's flat, and PIG mum helped me out with my shower - i washed my hair today. most amazing thing was that PIG mum forgot to turn the water off for the hairwash! she remembered for the body wash, though.
-i got dried, rekitted, then i stood up and had two tinkles on the loo.
-PIG mum made me walk back out to the sofa, where i sat and waited until dad was ready to lemme come back online. lol, he also draped a towel over my head coz it was wet. :P but aunty lai's just draped a scarf over my shoulders instead.
-toms: the parents are going to see some pastor about dearest grandmother's funeral toms. think PIG mum said she'd ask the pastor if i could sing or play on the piano 'amazing grace' for dearest grandma? i'd like to do that for her; PIG mum's told me that 'amazing grace' was one of dearest grandma's favourite hymns. :) think aunty lai's staying @ home to look after me. whatever the case, i'm certainly not sleeping till 4pm again! :P in the arvo, dad's out to see his relatives, fingers crossed that PIG mum will take me out to tai koo shing for some shopping! lol, but the only thing i wanna buy is a jar of horlicks. :P anyways, hope everyone has a great day toms!
cheers,

monday post5

good afternoon! em's only been hard @ work plodding 886 steps today. a pissy amount, i know - but i slept till 4pm today! :P
-anyways, i'm a puddle of happiness right now, coz little mickey pig :P just fed me some cake! i didn't even haveta ask him; i just opened my mouth near his bowl and he obligingly put a big crumb inside! :P righteo, let's start off with last night's activities first!
-i tootled online until aunty nga kicked me off to bed.
-PIG mum woke me up to watch thesoccer world cup grand final!
-aunty nga came over to watch the game with me, claiming insomnia. PIG mum just snored her head off on the pallet. :P
-aunty nga retired @ half time; PIG mum took me once to the loo. then i watched the rest of the game on the sofa.
-lol, scoreless game means extra time! and the netherlands triumphed - sorry, spain. :P
-PIG mum took me to the loo once more, then i hit the sack - ela's thumb for once allowed to tuck herself gently into my fist for some happy slrrp. meaning she's being a good girl today and staying outside all day coz she was allowed like era to tuck gently inside and sleep last night. :)
-this morning, PIG mum took me to the loo once before rocking off with dearest dad to start preparations for dearest grandmothers's funeral.
-and i've got the hiccups! argh! *hic!* >< :P
-meaning i snored, and snored ... and snored - all the way till 4pm!
-i first became a puddle of happiness when little mickey pig returned home from school and poked me awake. i thought he was gonna gimme a kiss, but nope - he shoved a green tea cake in front of my face instead! "he chose it for you himself, you know." siti jie jie told me. wonder how the lil brat knew i liked green tea cake?
-so PIG mum got me kitted, made me walk out to the loo. actually, thanks to aunty nga and siti jie jie who helped me to the loo twice this morning.
-PIG mum made me walk out to their gobbling :P table. breakfast, after PIG mum'd forced me to drink an entire mug of water was my yummy green tea cake from little mickey pig and one mug of milk.
-then i tootled online when dad decided that he was knackered and went for a nap.
-thanks to PIG mum who fed me one banana, and also little mickey pig for some sponge cake!
-PIG mum also tok me to the loo once more before she retured to pigland, meaning my new okidding total for monday's actually 1079.
-and i had a short yak to second aunty! she says she'll try find time for us to meet; lol, she also tells me to listen to PIG mum. lol, PIG mum must feel very loved - who's told me that in the last few days? uncle calvin, anna, aunty a, aunty anne and now second aunty! :P
-well, tonight we're heading back to aunty nga's to sleep after dinner. hopefully i can come back online, if not, there's always toms. oh yeah - both PIG mum and i clean forgot to tell CODA and UQ that we're in hong kong! so when we finally remembered, PIG mum rang CODA, and i hacked into PIG mum's e-mail address to tell ann. but i didn't touch any of her other e-mails, i promise!
-hmm ... little mickey PIG's just passed me one banana ... am i supposed to eat it?
-dunno what we're doing toms - hope it'll be good!
cheers,
em. ^^

saturday post14c

good evening! my final, final plodding total for saturday now stands @ 3787. okay, final events for saturday?
-aunty a arrived for dinner. tasteless two minute noodles for dinner tonight, with lotsa wombok and some charsiu. i washed dinner down with one yummy mug of fruit and vegie juice.
-lol, aunty a really sticks by the 'be a little late punctually' principle! :pi asked what she was still doing @ our house @ 7:25(choir practice starts @ 7:30), just as anna arrived to pick her up!
-so i stood up and hugged aunty a good-bye; anna demanded one hug also.
-PIG mum took me once more to the loo before i came back online.
-leonard's quick! he's already responded to my e-mail of absence! i'm just trying to remember if there's anyone else left i haven't told...
-well, thanks to PIG mum who brought bear bear over to keep me company. i can't bring him back to hong kong with me, remember, he's too big. so i'm bringing tonie. and PIG mum's smart; she's already put K1 down for some snoring, lest he get mega-pissed @ me again for not remember toput him down to sleep when i leave for long periods.
-anyways, uncle calvin should arrive in one hour or so to drive us to the airport. i honestly dunno how long we'll be gone, maybe one month? the good thing about not being here - i'll escape the cold! hong kong should be quite warm right now. :P
-righteo, everyone please take care of yourselves, and i'll see you when i get back!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. oh yeah, dunno if i'll get anymore spam tonight before i leave; but as of 8:25pm, the spam count for the early weekend (it's only saturday)'s ninety-five.

saturday post14

good afternoon ...
sorry, i'm really upset today. see, around 4am this morning, the phone rang. the parents came downstairs shortly afterwards. mother passed me the phone. "grandma's really sick; she's going to heaven soon. here, talk to her. she can't reply, but she can hear you." i took the phone, and talked to grandma for the last time. i told her how much i loved her, but that she was suffering lots and that god was calling her to him. and that hopefully, we'd see each other in heaven again. mother took the phone back and talked to the nurse who was looking after grandma. dad kept me company for awhile; he also pinky promised me that i'd see grandma in heaven one day. when he left me to sleep, i cuddled bear bear and cried myself to sleep.
-this morning, when tess arrived (slightly late) useless me got teary again. she got me kitted, led me to the bathroom. i brushed my teeth, then tess led me to the loo. thanks to her who fed me one mug of milo - the first i could hold 'incorrectly', and i did a stinky unspeakable.
-tess came back, led me over to wash and dry era, then led me out to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was yummy: one two minute noodles with ham and egg, one cup of tea, white and two, the second i could hold 'incorrectly' and one banana.
-tess gave ela a massage while i profread this letter some woman's typing to ask for some support, then i typed tess another letter.
-around 12:15, tess made me one mug of warm milo, sweetened with half a teaspoon of sugar, my third i could hold 'incorrectly'.
-tess took me once more to the bathroom, dad gave her one bag of oranges, then she left.
-lunch for me was one yummy custard bun and one mug of plain milk, which PIG mum gleefully forced me to hold 'correctly'.
-PIG mum took me once more to the loo before i tootled online.
-PIG mum's in pigland :P ATM, dad's out doing his stuff, and i'm just online.
-we're leaving for hong kong tonight. the flight's like @ 1am! think uncle slam's driving us there? or uncle calvin? dunno how long we'll stay over there ... one week? i really haven't a clue. so i won't be @ church toms, oh yeah ... what about the SHINE ppl coming to visit? i gotta remember to tell PIG mum to tell them not to come!
-well, i've got a good hour and three-quarters left to burn online; the sound's not connected, so i'll prolly head over for some fanfiction. anyways, i should be back tonight with my final plodding total for today and the rest of tonight's events.
cheers,
em. ^^
