I worked late last night finishing up work and for hours the dogs in my neighbourhood were barking. Same thing this morning. Of course they did stop occasionally. When I looked out my window, I saw a dog, belonging to another neighbour, outside my direct neighbour’s house barking at their dog and the dog on the opposite house. Well, the thing is, they were barking this morning too. And now, (which is the next night) they are still barking.
I really don’t know what’s going on. But it really does remind me of the 101 Dalmations where the dogs bark and howl at each other to pass the message of the missging puppies.
Maybe somewhere, 99 puppies have been kidnapped.
But anyhow, lets be more realistic. I really don’t know why the barkings are affecting me. Maybe because burglars broke into a neighbour’s house along my road. It’s totally not safe here. (Okay, not totally as in 100% but enough to make me paranoid). I’m easily worried, anxious, nervous or whatever you wanna call it. Seriously. Sometimes I do wonder if I need psychological help. (Haha, okay, maybe not that bad. That thought just crossed my mind before). So, yeah, back to the security, it’s not safe!
I remember walking to the LRT to go to class one day and these guys on the motorbike purposely rode towards me a few times over again. I freaked out and walked to the other side of the road. It was pretty scary because the night before, apparently a friend got rob. But that one we’re not sure whether it happened or not. Long story. However, at that point of time, I did think my friend got robbed.
So witnessing a few snatch thefts and hearing of robbery in the neighbouring houses, I just don’t feel it’s safe anymore.
So someone please tell me why I shouldn’t enjoy Singapore? At least it’s much safer there…..
