Toilet Training Your First Puppy in Singapore
As part of the toilet training research, I checked out pet shops and veterinary surgeries whenever I went overseas. I don't read those travel books but just walked around the local area near the hotel and read the Taipei newspapers.
There was a new Louis Vuitton store being opened in Zhongshan North Road (an equivalent of Orchard Road in Singapore?). Luxury handbags are not my interest. Nor is Rain, a top Korean entertainment group. The report in the newspapers said that there was a book shop at the fourth floor.
Would there by doggy books? I went there. There was one "Lump the Dog who ate a Picasso" by David Douglas published by Thames & Hudson. The pictures were good.
There was another book space on the 2nd floor. Beautiful coffee books on lifestyle.
Also Louis Vuitton history and some travel books on Europe and New York.
But the most memorable part of the trip was the flyer boy. He was around twenty. He was lean and hungry. Very conscientious. He tried to give the flyer to every passerby. Many ignored him. He looked into his bag. There must be more flyers.
He looked at his watch. He must be having another job or appointment. It was dinner time at past 6 p.m. The Korean Restaurant was filling up with young people. But the flyer boy seemed to be thinking of some appointments to go. He continued with his job. The crowd swelled as they came out from the subway. Like robots, they walked past him without a smile.
If only all these office girls and men take one flyer from him, he would be able to go home early. But they just ignore him. Be Kind to the Flyer Boy. He is earning an honest living. Accept one flyer from him.
