"That was a hell of a good 2 hours spent although I fear reptiles and lizards. It is so nice to have seen him kissing the King Cobra, I've never seen it so up close and personal! It's really really good lor, so adventurous... No one would bring me there except you, and I'm very happy lor!"

This is your chance to see the exotic animals come upclose and personal. There is no reason why you would want to miss out these animals when you're in One Utama! Get your bum off the chair and get going! It's worth your time with the Live Shows and be in touch with nature. My way of putting it?

"An exhibition of world's nature in One PLACE, One Utama."

Zoo Negara

Got Time?

The idea of a Malaysian, at the age of 24, visiting Zoo Negara...the responses are rather demotivating...

• Huh?
• What?
• Yerr...Why laaaarrr?
• Omg...you're damn bored right?
• Nothing else better to do is it?
• Crazy... -.-"

My only response is: "What is wrong with going to the Zoo??!!??!!?"


The Zoo Song

Let's go to the zoo, there's lots of things to do! ....(someone help me here)................................. There's Tigers! Lions! Elephants! Giraffes! KFC that's where I want to beee!


Smart Elephants
You are allowed to feed the smart elephants Sugarcane(sold there)! The elephants will follow you when they see you holding goodies!Tigers
The Sumatran tiger came reaaally close :) Most of the animals were swimming like this tiger and came upclose to us :) goodie!

and more...
Right here is a baby Silverleaf monkey following with a special cute little friendly deer. There are so many animals in the zoo who needs a better environment.

C'mon people... These animals need your support!
Today was one of the best days of my life...

I am very very grateful to all the sponsors of the animals, mostly the animals which represents the company's mascot (i.e: Ambank for the Camels, Lion Group for Lions). I sincerely hope there would be more support in giving all these lovely creatures a bigger, better environment and nurture.

By the way, I am not paid to blog...

More pictures will be up soon!

Malaysia K9 Day

Malaysia K9 Day


J-mie has always been the naughtiest puppy in the house.. that's also my bad, because I didn't spend enough time guiding her while she was going through her childhood times. Yet, she has grown up to be a beautiful lady with her very own elegant personality which amazes me.



20th January 2008, Sunday 11am

On this very day, she was at her best behaviour. Such a timid little baby, J-mie was almost bullied by every toy breed puppies :) It's not a character of a Husky, or is it something you'd expect from a fierce looking wolf-dog, but my J-mie is super loving with all animals. As you can see, she drinks from the same bowl of water with Duchess, my cat. [Link]

Back in Malaysia

I miss my computer. vickyvacko (my brother) is kind enough to be asleep right now so I could use his pc. It's so true that Malaysia never sleeps. Neither do I. Not proud on my side, though.

Keiro's Day Out. He went out like a sheep and came home like a lamb. I had his hair shaved bald, so now he looks like a chinese crested dog.

Reason: Knots.

Before.

After.

----------------------------------

I have never seen Ayers Rock, nor did I know anything about it. I know it's must be some special rock. Just after hearing "We Can Be Heroes", I came across one of Australia's 'must-see' places - Ayer's Rock. Some rock it was. I didn't exactly had my foot on the special rock...but this view ain't all that bad.

The captain informed us inside the aeroplane.

Note: Pictures were all taken by Nokia N73

----------------------------------

Both Shirley and Joey, my two little cousins, are currently being fostered by my kind mother. It's great to see my mom busy once again, since she's lonely at home with me and Victor all too old for her to torture. Haha :) It's wonderful because I was too young to remember how my mom tortured me. Now it seems these two girls are loving it :) My mom reads to them almost every night. I bring them out :)

This little boy is Wesley :)

----------------------------------

It's been a while since I saw J-mie. The last time I saw her, I could still carry her with one arm. Look at her now! Grown up to be such a beautiful lady. She's almost one year old now, but not fully grown. Amazing baby girl of mine. I sincerely hope to come home for good just to be with her. She is currently very well taken care of by my Kakak. Behind J-mie is my best buddy, Kit.

Spiders Behaviour on Video! [Good Quality]

I saw this spider in the garden while I was watering the plants... He was hanging on his web. Seemed 'fainty' so I took my huntsman box out and caught it why it's 'fainty'.

Looks dead at first but when I brought it inside the house.....this is what I saw! The spider was shedding its skin.
PLEASE CHECK YOUR VOLUME BEFORE PLAYING THE VIDEO!



My huntsman's name is Onizuka. Yes it is named after Great Teacher Onizuka. Why? Because I was watching GTO when I found him.

I found him wondering around my house. At first I thought I could just leave him around this house because he could eat all the daddy long legs and insects. What made me kept him as pet in a box?

Story of "Onizuka"

One fine day I was doing my laundry. I asked Tim to help me with taking the basket from on top of the cupboard (because I'm short). I stood below where he lifted the basket and Onizuka jumped out of it and landed on my hands! I screamed and ran around the house...naturally. 10 seconds later, I calmed down and took a transparent box...and adopted Onizuka as my pet.

This video shows my huntsman spinning web around his leftover food (corpse of another spider). So far, I've had quite a few spiders as pets and Huntsman are very clean. Firstly because they don't live on webs.



Happy watching! They are amazing. Some may say "Eeewww!" but I grew up with them.
:)

Farm Life

Air Rifle & Shotgun

Shooting a gun was one of my "future plan" and I finally did it under the supervision of Scout and Andrew who both have full firearm license. Air rifle was really quiet considering most people who have not much clue about guns will assume guns without silencer are usually loud.
The shotgun however... *shOck*! Ears buzzed, adrenaline rushed and pride (because I got the target!) The can was absolutely smashed! I was also told that there will be a strong kick back. It actually sorta cured my sore shoulder.

Andrew & Kylie's hobby farm

A farm 30 minutes away from town. Cows, chickens, birds, dogs, cats, lambs, horses, sheep, alpacas, and a variety of poo all over the 20 acre meadow. A mountain-like backyard that overlooks Birdwood.
2 storey high bonfire.

Do you prefer city life or farm life?

MiccObaYb's Amateur Stargazing

I did my small research on what and how to look for planets and galaxies in the milky way. So far, I saw Planet Venus at 5.30am and apparently the picture I posted recently is planet Jupiter. Didn't bring my camera out when I saw Venus...but I will see Venus again, so stay tuned.
I am not as skillful, and yet to know how to use the telescope, pictures do not turn out as sophisticated. Just being able to see clusters of stars that you can't see with naked eye is absolutely fulfilling.

I have decided to learn more about Astrophotography.
Here are some absolutely amazing astrophotography taken by Humayun Qureshi.

I'm sorry, J-mie. Please forgive me.

The pillow is drenched... her eyes all swelled up from crying.


Ever since Precious went missing, Micco was devastated. She flew back to Malaysia and found her house brightly lit. There was a welcome home party held just for her and family friends gradually filled up the indoor terrace. Everyone welcomed her and hugged her. Micco wasn't impressed because J-mie didn't show up. Mom ignored her, occupied by boasting her delicious Curry Laksa. No one bothered except for Jason, Aunt Florence's baby boy whom Micco takes as her charming little brother. His expression tells it all from the other end of the terrace. 'Where's J-mie'?


Frustrated, Micco stomp towards her maid and demanded on letting J-mie go."Who caged her!?", she asked furiously.


Her maid, Kak(sister) Yani was her best friend at home. She was the only person in the house who loves animals as much as Micco does. When Micco is sick, Yani will take care of her. Micco brings her out to shopping malls whenever possible. Micco also present her a kitten, named "baby" because Yani says it's so much easier to pronounce. Despite the sisterhood, Yani was speechless. She bounced Micco off by giving her a sharp, "I don't know. Ask someone else!" Micco knew it wasn't her fault. She loves J-mie just as much. Micco was then enraged by the fact that she has to be polite with guests. She ran upstairs screaming silently towards Victor's (her brother) room.


"J-mie is very ill. One day she got out of the house, that's probably how she got herself in trouble. She's now put in our other house's resting".


"What the f***?! And no one had the courtesy to tell me this until I find it out myself?!", Micco ran downstairs. Tears begin to flow down her cheeks anxiously.


For f***'s sake... resting in an empty house? What the f*** kind of rest is that for an ill puppy?!


Jason tagged along when he saw Micco ran out of the house in the dark. With tears blurring her vision, it didn't help. Micco doesn't know which house was it. Mom and Dad bought the house no long ago when she was in Australia. "J-mie!" She yells out. "J-mie, mummy's home. Where are you?" her voice cracked. Jason helped to look for J-mie without uttering a word to Micco. That comforts Micco.


Siberian huskies don't bark. Besides, J-mie could be too ill and shattered to howl. Hel.pless.

Towards the end of the sidewalk, there was a back light poorly lit. Two newborn puppies sucking hard for milk. J-mie. It was hard for her to stand, she lifts her head weakly and looked at Micco yearning for love. Micco broke down. Jason called for a neighbour not far from the house.

One of our neighbours arrived. He's a vet. He examined J-mie thoroughly, shooked his head gently.

"J-mie is undernourished, suffering from severe pain and shock. The need to feed two puppies in this condition, she is now very ill and exhausted. She just gave birth to these puppies not long ago. Perhaps two days. I'm surprised she'd even made it. Please take good care of her since you're back."

Nothing could stop Micco from crying. Not even a dream.

Note : I'm not a dream person. I don't usually get to dream at all and if I did, I would regard it as 'not-a-good-sleep'. This story was a dream I had this morning. My pillow was really wet crying IN the dream and I woke up still crying until I went for a shower. None of the above description was made up. I could remember everything that happened. For once, I didn't know I was dreaming when I was dreaming.

Tuxedo's Day Out!

~Tuxedo's Day Out at Rundle Mall~

What is it like to see things from a Tuxedo's point of view? All I can imagine what is in Tuxedo's mind is, "What in the world are they doing?!" Tuxedo sat on my lap while watching Dad getting his haircut.

"Ooo!Ooo! Let me goo! That ball wants me!" Watched kids practice pitching....

"Seriously...let me go." and stood steadily on Pig "statue".

People have the impression that cats are meant to be in-the-house, and dogs are meant to go out for walks. This reminds me of my past experience with my fellow cutesy friends in Malaysia.

First was my baby, Micco. He's a maltese puppy. Naturally, I would bring him everywhere I go. I'm an animal lover. I would bring any of my babies wherever I go. Since then, I become more aware of humans suddenly in love with their pets. Either that, or they are 'suddenly' proud of their pets. How sweet~ Didn't see much of THAT happening before. Maybe I didn't pay attention.

Maybe. =/

Want to know what happened to Micco? (links will lead you to detailed stories)

Then came Precious. Funny how I name a male cat 'Precious'. He became my beloved because of his cool behaviour. He is cool and calm, contented just being with me. (that's my perception btw...) One day I decided. "Who would challenge me in bringing your pet CAT out?"

*wInk* I win!

Although there wasn't really any challenger whatsoever... I thought it was amazing. The challenge was in me. I brought my Missy out. A Cockatail to One Utama Shopping Mall! Eyes on Missy!

Impressed? I'm not. My habits killed my babies.

Micco died outside my house one day because that freaking one day I didn't bring him to class with me...

Precious is now gone because...of a misunderstanding.

Missy died because he was out with me, frightened by a grasscutter, flew to a kennel.

IMPORTANT! ALWAYS keep your baby animals on a LEASH when you're OUTDOOR if you don't want to LOSE them.
