Eau De Parit

As promised, here are some more pics taken back home. This was taken on the 2nd day if I'm not mistaken. I was bored cos apart from eating, I practically didn't have anything else to do all day.

So, I went and searched for a cangkul (hoe) and started digging... whew


Yeah, those are my not so elegant legs... full of dirt and not very flattering blush.


Halfway there...


The end-result. For a woman in her late 30's and hasn't touched a cangkul in ages, it's not bad work eh biggrin. Maybe I could even apply a job as a laborer at JKR.


Phew, I smelled worse than a rotten onion after all that digging. If I had jumped into a river, I'm sure all the fishes would have jumped out! Hmmm... maybe I could market the scent and call it Eau De Parit or something in some perfume blog! LOL!

    Mat Dingo ~ The drain was clogged. I can't stand seeing murky and standing water so had to make a ditch to clear away the stagnant water. Actually it took me 2 days to complete the ditch so I'm no superwoman. I'd have fainted too if I did it in just a day!

    Anny ~ I was making a drainage for the clogged drain cos the old ditch was filled with grass and earth. Clogged drains breed mosquito larvae and there were a lot in there... pretty gross.

    Yoon See ~ It was exciting at first but after 10 minutes, my body ached all over. I couldn't stop halfway... but actually I did. I stopped but continued the next day! :D

    I've got loads of energy... got extra layers of fat on me la. Need to get rid of them.
