But can we really blame the rainclouds when we are depending on shit-water for our main water source? Yikes.

Or perhaps we should go with the flow of things, and preempt the rainwater ourselves. To brave the storm or seek shelter in your flooded homes? Singaporeans, it is time to decide.

*drum rolls*

No flood can stop us – we’ll paddle right across it! Our dragon boat can bring you places! Bukit Timah, Joo Chiat, Tampines, Thomson Road or even if it means paddling all the way down to Orchard road! Yes Sirrreee!

If skid marks can be left on water, the Kiyah-Splashh! ladies would have had certainly made their mark at the Singapore River, drifting to corner a tight turn after a mean race.

Now who says you can only rely on hydraulic brakes to smoke a drift? Tsk.

Amateurs, step aside.

But if I had a stint to simulate a furry-pawed friend, I’ll choose Bernard’s adorable Corgi, Bthreex. And in the most obvious cases, it takes on its owner’s surname, Wee. So i dedicate this blog post to endearing Bthreex, whom I believe, might have stolen the limelight from Bill Shim.

A letter dedicated to Bill Shim…

Dear Shimmer,

It is time to move over. Your time with Kiyah-Splashh! is long overdue and you have outstayed your position as “mascot” of the my team. Prime time is over, puppy. I started breaking hearts since the day Ber introduced me to the club at the PA Paddle Championship on April 24th. You could simply perk your puny ears and hear them all going at it with their “ooohs” and “ahhhhs” at my entrée. It is clear that they are truly obsessed with me. They were simply trippin’. *sigh*

‘Nway.

A picture speaks a thousand words. I’ll just put three here to prove ya I’m not lying.

All in all, I hope that we can still be friends, despite my ageless appeal and popularity. I am a strong advocate for love, and I think there’s just too much hate in this world.  As much as I love to spread your awesome genes, I’m already neutered due to the bursting population in Singapore. But I’m open to the idea of adopting your pups. ‘Imma sure Ber wouldn’t mind. They’ll look so cute next to me in similar Coach collars!

Okay, I gotta go catch some shuteye now. I don’t think I can take the pain if I develop eye bags because of you this letter.Eh-hem. We can chat more on facebook some other time. Too-doos!

xoxo,

B.

I can only imagine how Bill will react if he ever reads this letter.

Oh bother. I think they are both equally cute.
