Just a little something about the cat. And something to update this blog.
I like this photo. Shaun the Sheep was on TV, and it's not the first time that the cat watches the television. I've noticed her on a few occasions where she really watches the TV. It's very amusing. But on this occasion, she was apparently so intrigued by the sheep moving around that she just had to "investigate".
I was told by my sister a few days ago that the cat got locked in the Audi for the entire night. I couldn't stop laughing at that. Especially since this is the second time, and both times were my mom's "fault". Haha.
The first time was when my mom went to the bathroom, and she inadvertently closed the door on the cat, so that was an entire afternoon. I kept hearing her meowing throughout the afternoon, but I had no idea where she was, and thought she was just being... you know, cats meow, so it's just her. Then my maid came into my room somewhere between 5 and 6 p.m., and asked me if I've seen the cat.
I told her no, but I've heard her meowing for the whole afternoon now... She told me that she's searched the compound of the house, everywhere, and the cat was nowhere to be found. She left my room to search the other rooms, and I listened carefully. The meows sounded like it was coming from the balcony somewhere near my brother's room, so I went into his room and was about to open the balcony door when I noticed the shut toilet door...
...found the poor cat standing behind the door when I opened it, still meowing. She looked at me for a second, and RAN out. Ungrateful cat! Haha. I could not stop laughing. Oh my gosh. And later that night, it turned out that my mom was the one who had used the toilet, and didn't realize that the cat had gotten in somehow. Poor, poor kitty! LOL.
The same thing happened with the car - I think she must have been getting out groceries and stuff from the Audi, when the cat must have got into the car, and my mom, of course, closed the doors without realizing anything was amiss. She only discovered it the next morning, probably when she wanted to drive the car. My sister told me that my mom spent the afternoon cleaning the car - nothing major, just cat fur everywhere.
Stupid cat. Lol. But I miss her and home. Oh well.
On other matters, I am LOVING my MacBook. It's about a week now. It has all these really cool functions. I like the Widgets, and simply the flexibility of the entire interface - it's so easy to switch between open applications simply by moving the cursor - a feature called Expose. Apparently this is now featured in Windows Vista, and it's called Windows Flip. Haha, whatever. =P And the two-finger scrolling on my MacBook touchpad is extremely convenient too. There are a lot of other cool things, and I'm enjoying discovering and learning them.
I'm still making the slow transition from my old laptop to the Mac, but there's a definite difference between using both the Windows and Mac OS now... Before making this switch, I've only used Mac occasionally, especially since the uni computers are mostly Macs, which felt daunting and odd before. But now that I'm learning my way around the Mac interface, I'm starting to think that Windows is just so... rigid. I don't really know how to describe it, but yes, I am DEFINITELY enjoying using the Mac.
Apple, you've got me sold. Hahaha.
