Camera Critters: Who Spied on Me?

That night, I was really surprised. Behind the bathroom window, there was a creature –a big house lizard- watched me (hahaha). Fortunately, though with scare, I was able to capture it with my camera, before it ran away. In the next morning, I can’t found it anywhere. Until now, about a month later, it has never come again…

Indonesian people call it ‘tokek’, as their sounds like. The interesting thing is, we usually make a funny game with its sounds. You might have known that a big lizard seldom produces a sound. And every time a big lizard makes several sounds, we generally count it like this :

The big lizard : tokek… (1st sound)
The man : rich …
The big lizard : tokek… (2nd sound)
The man : poor …
The big lizard : tokek… (3rd sound)
The man : rich …
The big lizard : tokek… (4th sound)
The man : poor …
The big lizard : tokek… (5th sound)
The man : rich…
The big lizard : ……….. (silent)
The man : hoooraaayy….. I’ll be rich….

It’s a funny or a silly game, huh? I just wonder whether people in other countries have also done a ‘counting game’ like we do here?

CC : Bedtime Habits

As Mommy Liz said, this week’s couple’s corner is about the routine that couples do before going to sleep beside their spouses. I guess each couple has their own bedtime habits. What about ours?

We have the same and different preferences. We both like wearing T-shirt and comfortable short pants; and we can only sleep if the light is off. If we aren’t sleepy yet, we usually watch TV news program before. We seldom sleep early; most of the times we sleep after midnight.

I always wear my blanket and I like my thin pillow. Hubby doesn’t like using blanket and his pillow is a thick one.

We have our special habit. After saying a prayer, we always end the day by forgiving each other. Because of this, we’ve never ended our days in bad feelings. We usually start to sleep by holding hands. But after a while, we continue sleeping with our own styles. I sleep on my back; and my hubby like to sleep on the right side of his body.

It’s my story. Do you want to know other’s bedtime habits? Visit and join us at Couple's Corner.
