Blogging is fun!

I hope you all have enjoyed my blog. I can't believe my time here at GLPS is almost over. I'm going to miss the wide open spaces (see my ode I wrote to it!), the new friends I made and Miss Angela's laptop. I hope she will still let me use it back in Seoul.

I thought I'd share a few pictures with you before I go. Sometimes I'm deep in thought, thinking about my bone, going for a walk and treats. I get writer's block and just sit in front of the computer not sure what to write...

Me thinking about what to post

After some time passes, i usually get inspiration and then I'm off, typing until my paws ache.  It takes me a long time to type but when I'm finished, I'm proud of my work.  Thank you for reading my blog.

Woof! Woof!





Ode to Wide Open Spaces

Dear Wide Open Space,

How I love to run free in you.  You welcome me with your never-ending charm and mystery.  As far as my little eyes can see, there is you.  No buildings, no cars, no people, and no other dogs.  How strange it is to see nothing but open space.  You are free and endless.  Not bound by rules, fences or fears.  I envy your courage to be open to all who come your way.

As I marvel at you, I wonder where are the tall buildings that usually surround me? Where are the honking horns?  Where are the people cluttering the sidewalks? Where are the tiny dogs that bark their hellos?

Nothing here but you.  Space.  I drink in the silence, the trees rustling in the wind and the birds chirping in the distance.  Oh nature of grass and trees, birds and bees.  You wrap around me like a hug and I embrace you.  The silence is deafening and the space frees me.



I run trying to find the end of you.  Running fast and free but I never reach your edges.  Like the air I breathe, you keep going to eternity.  I have always been surrounded by things but now I am surrounded by openness.  You.  Stay with me and I will stay with you.

Woof! Woof!

Your friend and admirer,

Nabi

Three Things I know to be True

I have been blessed with above average intelligence for a dog.  I know this because my human is always surprised by the things I do, even when it is a simple as sitting when asked.  So when it comes to 3 things I know to be true the biggest challenge was to think of only 3 things to share with you.  I thought about this all day, when I was chewing my bone, when I was chasing the birds, when I was having a nap and even when I was running around.  After giving it some thought, I chose 3 things I wanted to tell you about.

Grass is fun.  There you have it! Who knew? Being the city dog that I am, I'm more accoustumed to trotting on pavement and spongy stuff but grass! Wow! It is great on the paws and what's even better is you can eat it.  Did you know that? I sure didn't but I have been munching away on it for days now.  I am thinking about going to play in the grass again soon.  Next time, you should join me.

Rumors are easy to start.  I discovered this accidentally to be honest.  I was trying to impress the other dogs in my pack (yes, I'm part of a "pack", the leader of the pack actually) when I suggested that I had a girlfriend.  Now this is not really true but the other dogs were so impressed I just wagged my tail whenever they asked a question and the rumor was started. 

Paw prints leave unwanted evidence.  Whenever I am caught doing something my human wished I would not do, you know things like hiding her shoe, I end up being caught because my paws lead right to the scene of the crime.  Paws wet with dirt from outside are a sure way to get caught.  If you want to get away with your sneaky habbits, remember to wash your paws first!

I hope you can use these 3 things to learn something new.  I really am a bright pooch, if I do say so myself, and I do.  How about you?  What can you share with me that you know to be true? I can't wait to hear all about it...

Woof! Woof!
