autumn

after reading about ene (who, btw, just recently became a friendsky) and her gardening exploits with her little secret garden and troy, i've decided to write a bit about my own meandering experience with plants recently...

a few months into our relationship, when all was well and green, adeline bought me a bonsai plant...which kinda looked like this:


common pomegranate

i would water it diligently every day when i woke up...add fertilizer to make it strong...it even blossomed tiny flowers a few times.

then a few months after we broke up:


autumn

(btw, the specks of white you see on the leaves is not mold...i'm not THAT irresponsible...it happened when the stupid painters came to paint the ceiling and accidentally (i hope) dripped a bit of white on it.)

hmmm...maybe the leaves are brown cuz it's just shedding it's leaves...you know, trees tend to do that sometimes right? which is why i'm gonna call her "autumn" for now...maybe if i take care of her from now on, she'll be "april" soon. wish me luck. =)

graceyumommy...haha...yeah, i know what you mean...the plant looks so pathetic it makes you wanna laugh...haha...

miss ene said...

*LOL* Like Graceyumommy, I burst out laughing when I saw your very very sad plant. What did you do (or not do) to it ?! Oh dear.

Speaking of Troy, I hope he's still alive. I haven't seen him for a couple of days. Fingers crossed now.

PS. I like being a Friendsky. Is it pronounced as "Friend-Sky" or "Friend-Ski" ?

ene...gee...thanks...i think i just unwittingly uploaded a joke onto my blog...haha...i guess i just didn't give autumn the sunshine that was previously there...haha. but i'm sure that troy is still ok lah...i mean, who would ever get withered with jennifer aniston taking care of it??? oops. hahaha.

p.s. - it should be pronounced friend-ski...just like it should be photograph-ski...i think it sounds better... =)

miss ene said...

Friendski - Just the way I thought it should be pronounced. Sounds way cuter than Friendsky :) Just thought I'd clarify.

And I think Troy is being taken care of by Lara Croft these days. Jennifer is sadly out of the picture already. Lol. And yes, Troy is thankfully still alive. He just looks a little...thirsty. That reminds me. I should give him a drink. It's been a week.

ene...yeah, i know about lara....but i was talking about when troy was with "rachel"...and look how that turned out...haha. kidding...anyway, make sure he gets plenty of sunshine too. =)
