Piglets out!

It's been more than 20 days that I last blogged... Things have changed for the better lately. My mood gets better and my workload has become more managable. Lately been busy with gatherings and buying gifts for colleagues and friend, attending farewell lunch, and birthday celebrations... Though my pocket got a big hole, I'm happy to be able to meet up with people whom I've not met for some time. Met up my primary school friends, colleagues from other the other dept and my ASHL gals plus Ivan.
Had a game of paintball at SDC wif my colleagues last Saturday. It wasn't as exciting as the one we had in Yishun though and weather was wet too. We had to end the game half-way but we were allowed to continue the next half some other day.
In the evening, I had dinner with my ASHL gals and Ivan. We had dinner at Werner's Oven. It's a German restaurant and the prices are reasonable. We had a cuppa at the Cheesecake Cafe and my goodness...the cheesecakes were fantastic! The boss was very organised despite the huge crowds. I'm going back there again!
This morning, I received an sms from my colleague telling me that our sow has given birth! She was supposed to due last Wednesday but we waited and waited, and there's no signs of piglets. My colleague and I resorted to talking to her, persuading her to push her littles out. Of course it did not work. We were told that if she keeps her foetuses for more than 2 days, she'll be in danger. Our vet administered a few doses of hormones to induce her labour and still doesn't work. But today, she gave birth to 5 cuties! I rushed back to work just to catch a glimpse of them and took some really cute pics. 2 were black and the rest were pinkish beige. So exciting...the rest of the sows will be giving birth 1 after the other in consecutive weeks and we are gonna have many litters of noisy piglets!
