Sleeping with Choco

Posted on by sonokotchi

Typhoon was passing Tokyo area last night and the strong wind was making loud noise hitting windows.

I could see Choco was uneasy so I decided to sleep with him.

My bed is yet to be delivered so I brought cushions of couch.

I thought I could calm him down if he could see me from his cage.

He looked happy seeing them lying on the floor.

When I asked him to go to “House”, he looked at me innocently as if he doesn’t understand me.

He might not understand my command, but he usually goes in understanding it’s his bed time.

I asked him to go to “house” for a while and I gave up.

I asked him to go to pee and poo at his toilet tray in the cage and he kept his promise.

I was woken up few times by noise of wind, but he was quietly playing with his toy at the edge of my comforter.

He wasn’t afraid of noise; he looked happy instead.

When I woke up this morning, it was nice and sunny.

Today, the temperature is expected to reach 32C.

Just 4 days ago, the temperature was low as 17C.

The weather has been crazy in Tokyo. Sigh

Choco’s First Shampoo

Posted on by sonokotchi

A strong Typhoon 24 is approaching Tokyo.

I was hoping somebody will cancel grooming today so that I can get a slot.

I was so happy when I received a call at 11 am today for 3 pm slot.

I happily took it; but there was a catch.

The store, Green Dog, is located at Tokyo Midtown Roppongi, a shopping complex.

Usually shops are opened till 9 pm.

However, today Tokyo Midtown Roppongi decoded ti close at 5 pm.

Perhaps, because JR (Japan Railway: major train operator) decided to stop operation at 8 pm.

Customers and even staffs won’t have transportation to go back home after 8 pm.

This is very unlikely for Tokyo to shut down train because of typhoon.

As such, Choco won’t be able to finish his hair cut.

He got shampoo, nail care, ear care and some hair cut, just to cut unnecessary long hair around eye and mouth area.

Though this is his first time, he looked he was doing okay.

But if I look carefully; his body was shaking.

Unfortunately, it’s incomplete.

You will look more handsome on Thursday.

I bought you more toys (well, it’s more replacement because he ruined toys) and food.

You deserve these for being Good Boy.

b-monster Ebisu Studio

Posted on by sonokotchi

I was irritated by my boss so I ate too much confectioneries.

I punched out at 17:10hrs to participate in 18:05 hrs class at Ebisu Studio.

It was fun, though equipment is different from Ginza Studio.

I pinched drum look like set.

I could not take a photo tonight so I am taking a photo of equipment from the web.

Oh I wish I have a body like her.

I enjoyed it tonight.

Gift Rush

Posted on by sonokotchi

I was away to manage the project outside of office for a week.

When I returned to the office on Tuesday, I found two packages on my desk. (Yellow Box was inside of white paper bag).

In the yellow boxes, there are many nice confectioneries from Palace Hotel Tokyo.

In a gift paper bag, there are coffee and cooking ingredients from Malaysia.

Then my friend gave me special moon cakes (varieties of lotus paste moo cakes) from Malaysia because 24 September was moon cake festival.

So nice of them and touched!

Thank you for Mr. K, Mr. Z and Ms. T!

XOXO

Reservation at b-monster Ebisu Studio

Posted on by sonokotchi

I just finished my project.

It went well and I’m glad to know that participants are all happy.

Now it’s my time to tune up.

I received a half price trial ticket from my last trial participation.

I decide to use this Friday at Ebisu Studio.

I need to study basic boxing moves which is available on YouTube before my participation.

Last time, I didn’t watch this video, meaning I wasn’t prepared…?

Well, I enjoyed the lesson; that’s all counts.

I look forward for this Friday trial lesson!

Sunday For Choco

Posted on by sonokotchi

When I show him his carrying bag, he gets so excited to go in; it makes my preparation easy.

We went to the clinic to get his shot for rabies at Green Dog Tokyo Midtown Roppongi.

Yes, this my regular shop to buy his products.

It’s conveniently located near my apartment and it has facilities of shop, clinic, pet hotel and grooming (beauty salon).

I bought a treat pouch and foldable cup here.

I’m using this treat pouch for basic training at home now.

I can clip it on my clothes so I can treat him any time; it is washable because it’s made by silicon; and it can close automatically because there is a magnet.

He is smart, but I learned I need to be patient not to confuse him.

Training School

Posted on by sonokotchi

So cute of him to go in himself!

Choco knows he can go out if he goes in this bag!!!

I’m glad that he enjoys going out with me.

Choco and I attended a briefing for Training School: Familina Garden, Minami Aoyama.

We decided to take lessons and Choco would have four school mates.

We will start our class next week.

I bought a crate at my regular pet shop, Green Dog Tokyo Midtown Roppongi Store for him because he would need it there and other places.

He likes it.

He was totally relaxing by lying down inside of it at the shop.

It was a busy morning so I went to spa to unwind my body while he is taking a nap.

Evening with/for Choco-Chan

Posted on by sonokotchi

I went our for dinner together with Choco-Chan.

I like to dine at Orange, Tokyo Midtown Roppongi.

Food is good and the restaurant allows Choco-Chan at a terrace table.

I would be worried about Choco-Chan at work or when I’m out.

I ordered this IP WiFi camera which is suitable monitoring a baby, elderly, pet and home security last night. Yeah!

Now I can check on him anytime!

Happy Saturday

Posted on by sonokotchi

I had a bad week at work.

I’m glad that I applied for a trial lesson for boxing fitness programme at B-Monster Ginza this morning.

We boxercise in dark.

The loud EDM kept me going; otherwise, I won’t be able to finish the whole programme.

Well, technically I took a break in between so I may not able to say a WHOLE programme, but I could still stand when we finished the lesson.

It was fun!

I was seriously considering to become a member, but currently, the membership is full so I couldn’t.

I will check other studio.

After boxercise, I went to lunch at Din Tai Fung Ginza at Kirarito Ginza.

I love their dim sum.

I also enjoyed their famous Taiwanese Mango Shaved Ice!

I hope I didn’t cancelled out my exercise with these lunch. hahaha

At evening, I took Choco-chan for a walk for the first time.

He is small so he can get enough exercise at home, but it would be nice to get fresh air and fun.

We went to the Light and Mist Digital Art @ Tokyo Midtown Roppongi.

It is beautiful.

I hope Choco-chan also enjoyed the evening.
