Say "Hi" to Mr. Pigeon #31

Remember the other day when I was lamenting about waiting for a surprise in the mail? Well here it is!

This little box was waiting for me at the post office (since no one was at home when the door bell rang. It was addressed in very neat letters, and reminded me of my kindergarten school teacher who used to write extremely neatly. Come to think of it, it really is a tough skill!


I slit open the parcel while in my tutor's office. Hoho! I couldn't stand the suspense any longer! My friends were really eager to see what was inside as well. Hmmm. Surprises are irresistable! :D



Here's what I saw the moment I opened the box. A nice tube of smarties in neon colours and another tube of fruit pastilles! Thanks Charlie! It was totally unexpected~



I promptly took away the nice tidbits and finally had a chance to touch and feel the famed Mr. Pigeon. :)


He was an extremely sweet little chap, with a tag that read "Hello, my name is ____. I am your pigeon pal. Please take good care of me." He also had a little passport and a knitting pattern for a jumper! *Time to learn how to knit!*



Mr. Pigeon #31 felt so strange and alone. After having spent 10 days in a snug little box with pretty purple tissue and candy treats to enjoy, it was strange to be let out in the open. Eeps!



But Mr Pigeon wasn't to be trifled with. He quickly settled his feathers and nestled himself on the bookshelf and started browsing a collection of architecture magazines. Hmm. Tsk tsk!

As if that wasn't enough, he started poking his 'beak' into building design! Hoho. What a fine and intelligent little pigeon we have here.



He was immensely proud of himself, and started to admire his fine reflection. Hohoho.



Mr Pigeon has many great dreams. He has such a dignified face! One day, he'll be a famed architect!



Coo!!

"Coo", Mr Pigeon!
It's lovely to see him exploring his new home :)
Maybe he'll become the world's first pigeon architect...
