Missing Dogs and Football

My dog's missing again. Yup. It's the third time.

I wish I could say I was blaise about it. I wish I could tell myself that it will be just like the other two times-we'll find her eventually.

But.. it just seems so improbable.

We've been looking for her since.. maybe one hour ago. We've combed our block, walked around downstairs, discovered some of her poop, gone to the security guards, walked around some more, tried snooping around the 7-11 (where we found the poop)... but to no avail.

It's just like football. The longer the time wears on without your team scoring a goal, while the other team keeps scoring.. the lower the chances of your team winning the game.

But no! I will remain hopeful. Because miracles do happen!

And I've put my dog into God's hands.

So.. against all odds, my little doggie will come home, I will be able to feel her soft, white fur, gaze into her cute cute cute eyes, and maybe even let her lick me.

Just like football again. Look at how Liverpool made their comeback against AC Milan's 3-0 at half time in the Champions League.

I'm going to pray as hard, maybe even harder than those fans.

Please let her come home.

Please.

In SPH, there's this set of elevators. I suspect it was the same set used to film this scene in "THE EYE". The one where this girl gets on the lift, and there's this pair of gravity-defying legs hanging in the air next to her..

Yup.

The scene that came out in the advert-for those who saw it.

There are some mornings, as I step into the elevator to go to the office, that I wish there really was a ghost in there. So at least there'd be an explanation as to why on earth the damn building is just so creepy.

For those who are wondering...

No la.. I love the job. I really do.

I just hate the building.

Working at the Sports Desk has its' advantages.

Nothing could get me off my ass to exercise.

Now, I get to do the 100m dash everyday-out of the office.
