Animalia.

Remember I mentioned that I couldn't find these brooches that I bought in Melbourne? *click*


I found them! :D :D :D

At first I thought I left them in this bag which we locked-up and checked-in-- and lost the keys to it, eff our lives. While I was in Singapore, I kept on reminding Jing to bring the bag to a locksmith, but she forgot. -_- So in the end, I begged my grandmother to solve the key problem for us ('cause she is always the one duplicating keys for us, so she has, err, a wider locksmith contact base wtf).


But grandma was too smart!! I thought the locksmith would need to break the locks or something... But she found a better solution! She found spare keys to the lock wtf.


As it turns out, my brooches weren't in the previously-locked bag. Instead, they were in Jing's bag all along. -___-


Anyway, enough background on the brooches! Here they are:




All animal brooches! My latest obsession. :P Before going to Melbourne, Jing and I were talking about what we wanted to buy there, and I told her I want animal accessories! 'Cause Camberwell (land of treasures) should have some, I thought.




Peacock-- the colors are even more brilliant in real life! :)




Lizard. One of my favorites actually. Magnifique!




Cheetah. Would like it to be bigger though!




Elephant!




Another one of my favorites-- this is SO SO SO gorgeous. :)


My animal brooch collection is growing! These are my existing animal brooches:


Housefly wtf, plastic dove, and swan. I couldn't find this gold teddy bear brooch I have though!


Of course, I am only speaking of brooches now. I also have animal necklaces, bangles, earrings... :P

************************************************

The boyfriend is super -_- with my animal accessories craze. And he never fails to make fun of me.

Whilst shopping that day, he found a cock necklace (err the bird not the human anatomy WTF), and started shouting to me, "Eh bee! Bee! I found a cock! Your favorite! Animal eh!!!"

Then when I flung my hands and shook my head, he continued, "WHYYYY??? Is it 'cause it's not a hen, it's a COCK???"


WTFFFFFFFF!!


Another time, we were talking crap, and he asked me since I like animal necklaces so much, will I ever wear a tapir necklace.





I then gave him a look of disgust. "NO!"

He insisted: "But why??"
"Err... 'Cause tapirs aren't... fierce!!"


And he persisted.

" If it's a hungry tapir?"
"If it's a pissed-off tapir?"
