Pepper, anyone?

Welcome to all of you.

Teatime Stories has been constructed to provide some entertainment for you people, whether you are stuck in the midst of piles of work or simply struggling with the deadly boredom of everyday life. The stories here are neither too sophisticated such that you have to look up your dictionary every few paragraphs, nor too silly and nonsensical *scatterbrain alert* (unless the author has less than 6 hours of sleep, in which case you readers are expected to be understanding and sympathetic)

So for those productive people out there who have tons of work yet still manage to squeeze some time to read some blogs, here are some amusing stories about people, and their silly behaviours. As the stories are created for your pleasure, do feel free to contribute and comment. Contributions in the forms of ideas, or cash, chocolates, or some exotic treats are always appreciated by the poor helpless author.

So shall we? Let's start then... The very first episode of Teatime Stories! *Wild applause*

Once upon a time, in a faraway land where they are unable to distinguish between a mermaid and lion, there live six fascinating creatures who by some unexpected twist of fate, end up living together in harmony. (or at least the author would like to believe so) They call themselves "LADA" which means 'pepper' in some foreign language from another galaxy.

The characters in Lada are as distinct as night and day. They have people who are constantly challenged, both vertically and horizontally. They have people who are shy and reserved, and they have those shameless to boot. As the name suggests, they are quirky, spicy, and too much exposure to these creatures can bring tears to your eyes. (most of the time due to excessive laughter, sometimes because they use tear gas on you)

To let you appreciate this group of fantastic and wonderful being, let me introduce them individually (by alphabetical order, so that nobody can accuse the author for being biased)

Anton - The Eccentric. Most distinct-looking creature. Tend to believe all the female creatures are in love with him. Has a soft spot for white furry dogs. Suspected to own a mirror on the wall which he coerces to say everyday that he is the most handsome of all.

Aris - The Cow maniac. Known to have special fondness for Cows, especially those with equally huge tummy and butt. Owner of the low and sexy voice which drives all the cows crazy. Ever heard of the Mad Cow Disease?

Felie - The Undiscovered Species. Mysterious identity with unknown origin. Known to be submissive and shy with sporadic bursts of uncontrollable laughter. At times produces a high-pitched inhumane sound.

Imme - The Microscopic. At times cannot be seen with the naked eye, especially when standing behind another member. Known to have caused unnatural silence followed by an eruption of laughter. Given permission to jump out of the window.

Like - The Ingenious. Brain capacity above normal. Has a liking for wriggly creatures with tentacles. Known to ingest the poor wriggly creatures. Her presence encourages the Microscopic to jump out of the window.

Sigit - The Goofey. Famous for making silly moves. Turns red without any apparent reason. Known to believe that he can make himself invisible. Very famous for making even more silly moves then.

And so... the six unlikely partners embark on an exciting journey *star wars theme song*... What will their adventures be like? Stay tuned for the next episode of... Teatime Stories...
