I Want a Dog

I've always wanted to experience what it's like to live alone. To have your own house and be independent. I have always lived with my parents and at the age I am in now, it's starting to feel constricting.

I love my parents, I do. I like being in the house with them. But of course you have to abide by their rules, be in the curfew, and learn to share. Sometimes you have to give more. I think my mom just doesn't want to be alone. She hasn't taken it into her system that soon, her two kids will be moving out and be by themselves or with a family of their own. 

Anyway, I want to get a dog. My older brother got a dog just a few months ago. The dog's name is Japs and he's half Shitzu and half Spitz. Literally. His front part is Shitzu and his back part (especially the legs) is the Spitz side. He's cute though and really really sweet. He cuddled up to me during the family reunion and I've carried him most of the time then. I've always wanted to get a dog but my parents told me I can't have one. Either the excuse is the neighbors, my dad is not fond of dogs, or no one to take care of the dog when everyone's away. Actually, with the job I have now, I think I can take care of a dog. I don't want a big big dog. I love Retrievers but their way to high for my budget and lifestyle. I just want a small dog just like Japs who doesn't bark and just wants to be cuddled with.

I'm thinking about it now because I'm all alone at home, surfing the net, wearing nothing but.... Anyway, I'd love to have company but having a dog sounds better. Not that I don't like human company. Animals connect more to the human emotion that most people do I think. 

Well I sure hope I'd get to have a dog soon. Something to keep me warm, to cuddle with, and play with... but of course, he can't replace The Boyfriend.
