My "Pepper" Ferret

16th Sept 2010

Today was a very very hot day, the weather at night made my air-cond look so "weak" as if it can't beat the heat. If me as a human could hardly tolerate this heat, it must be extremely difficult for my Pepper as well.
.
Pepper is a ferret, she's very cute, the fur made her look like a panda, blacky fur on her hand, leg and around the neck. Ferret usually stays in cool weather, unfortunately for me, I live in a tropical country, and the weather is getting worst and worst because of the globalization.
.
I went out to check at Pepper, she was sleeping like a human, face, hand, and leg were facing up, haha. As soon as she woke up, she rushed to the water bottle and drank lots lots of water, half bottle of water was gone, I was surprise, and there i thought "She is very healthy if she drinks this much water everyday". Things started to feel weird after i being her back from the usual "play ground" which is actually the backyard of the house, it's open air. I always prepare a big bowl of water for her to dive in, just in case she needs to drink water, of she feel like playing in it. .
At first, she is scared of water, but as soon as she finds out that the bowl wasn't that deep, slowly she put herself in it, like having a Spa or Jacuzzi. But today, she does't seems to be going in, i notice she's panting really hard and drooling ver frequently, immediately it came to my mind, something is not right, my ferret don't normally behave like this. So again, I went to to kitchen, and came back with some cold water, she likes it, and dive in it.
.
Night comes, the weather is still hot, something is very very wrong with the weather, it made the temperature rise, it's bad for my pet, i know it. Again, i checked on her at night, she was motionless, lifeless, i started to panic, wondering what's wrong with my ferret. I checked online, found out that ferrets doesn't sweat, which is the main reason why they can't tolerate heat, i refill the bottle with ice water, cover a bunch of ice with her favorite towel, and put her on top of it. After an hour of observing, she's finally getting lively to normal, the ferret who loves to chase around for treat my mom and me gave. Now i'm going to rest, Pepper, i'm sorry for everything i put u through, i love you, so please don't leave me.

11th Months

Yesterday had been a really long day, it's been such a long time since this feeling came back to where it belong.

.

It was very tiring, yet miserable.. You've gave your best yet it doesn't turn out the way you expected it to be.

.

Prepared for the arrival of this, I show no tears, just expression of sadness & the will of destroying oneself. Alcohol & drunkness are no longer in the list of forgets, now... looking at the land far across the sea, is the only thing i could think of.

.

It is indeed the best time to flash all the jokes back to your mind, those that makes you smile, laugh, better yet, those that brings you joy.

.

No one should or even deserve to be blame, at the end of the day, it is both heart that are keeping secret unwilling to let out, it all came down to where I am now.

.

We show no fear, no laughter, no tears, no emotional expression, but if you were to see them, always remember... they're human, they're just one of us, one will wear a mask, but behind it... you will understand there's no such thing as a calm heart.

.

Woke up in the morning with sigh, knowing it's going to be another long day, or even worse... a long week to go. What you can do, is to be strong, and hang in there. As for me, i'll stick to the view of a land far across the sea, and maybe one day... i could reach that place.

.

Everything happens for a reason, the bad, the good.. everything.. That's what i believe in, which allows one to forgive the past, look at the future and survive in the present. A saying.. "Yesterday is history; Tomorrow is Mistery; And today is a Gift, which is why it's called the present".

.

No longer you know the right thing to do, the dont's, the cure, the element, i'm lost.

Carved Within: Packing Luggage

..I've been blaming Melz for tricking me to this trip, because i knew instead of paying her installment monthly, i should have started saving about 6 months ago.
.
This will be the first time going vacation without my parents with me, i'm kinda excited, yet at the same time.. having a hard time about leaving.
.
There's this feeling, where it doesn't feel safe, as if i need to be more prepared for the future, cause you never know what might get to you. Certainly hope it wasn't effected by some award winning movies like "Titanic" & "2012".
.
One night, my mind was full of it, it scared the crap out of me and I couldn't sleep. How long has it been? Since the last time I have a pillow in my arm with my head bowed down and pray to God, asking Him to calm my soul & spirit down, and to cover me with his blood throughout the journey. I had to admit, I used to doubt Him, but immediately after the prayer, the heart just calm down like the wind above the sea just stopped, the pace of the ocean slowed down.. slowly... you see your self laying at the center of it, without knowing it... I had fallen asleep.
.
It strengthened my belief, that He is watching me from above, trying to show me the right path, and also to help me through the time of needs. Thank you Lord.

Carved Within: 9th Day oF CNY

Yesterday was the 9th day of "Gau Wong Ye", a traditional celebration for Hokkiens. Normally at this day, i will be at Mr Lee's house (Father's childhood friend) located at Subang USJ11, but this year i had a different plan.
.
Woke up early in the morning, waiting for the movie called "He's a Women, She's a Man" uploaded from youtube, it's about a story of Sam (Leslie Cheung), a producer in a music industry wanted to create a new star choosen from the ordinary people. A sassy girl "Wing" (Anita Yuen) idolise Rose (Pop singer), & Sam. When Wing saw the advertisement, she then cut her hair, dressing up as a man & went for the audition. Soon.. Wing moved into Sam's house, and the romance between both of them blossom. An all time fave oldies movie.
.
It's 12pm. Took my bath, get into that smelly cars of Dad's Mercedes Benz. Why will i complain my father's Merz as a smelly car? Because he used such a strong cologne that will fill the whole car just by getting in, for your information, i'm extremely sensitive to perfumes, especially the low quality ones.
.
I love visiting dai yi's house, watching her cook is fun, she'll complain about the chef wanabe (ME) for not arriving early in the morning to help out, asking me to do this n that, while i'm taking my sweet time stealing d ready made cream puff.. And the most of all, her sense of humor & knowledge that always enlighten me. She had been helping me a lot with her experience of life & work, nothing ever let me down whenver it comes to her. The joke of the day, she was invited by a friend from HongKong for dinner & Golf, a bunch of friends were there and somewat there's this quiet gentlement sitting next to her. The gentlement excuse himself to the gents, and dai yi's friend told her about the guy sitting next to her was actually very good in singing, sacarstically when the gentlement came back, dai yi said "I heard you can sing, why don't you sing for us?", doesn't sound like a joke yet? Of course not, not when you know the gentlement was actually George Lam (林子祥), a very very old singer who because very famour during the 80s, the song "我选择了你" (I've choose you) was sang by him. Can you belive it?!?!?!?! Haha, the table was laughing away when we know who that person is... GOSH, how can she not know who he is!!!
.
Something's wrong with my handphone, it doesn't allowed call or incoming calls, which is the main reason i'm late for the party invited by KM. I called her immediately the phone was turned on, and believe me... she sound like she was going to scold me for good, yeah yeah, cos she hates people who are late without informing, but this time i have a reason for being late. Spending the night eating malay food preapred by Mr Mun's colleague, nasi dagang was nice, the curry chicken was awesome, Mutton rendang was delicious, but not really a fan of d ayam masak merah, it taste a little too sweet which is definitely not my style of having a chicken. Overall, the food is nice, the atmosphere & conversation is fun, the wine was good and the best of all, i'm invited by this awesome person KM.
.
That's it about now.

CNY 2010

Chinese New Year 2010 --
.
It's this occasion of the year again, where people the married couples give ang pows (Except for my beloved Aunt), and most of the time you'll be able to guess how much it contains in the ang pow. This is the exciting part, instead of receiving present like Christmas, you get CASH!!!!
.
Something i really really hate during Chinese New Year, father's perfume. You had most probably read about it in my facebook, yup... My father used God-Know-What brand of the perfume, it doesn't smell nice, and most importantly, the scent is so God-Damn-Strong, so i prayed to Lord that he can remove the scent or keep the headache part away from me throughout the journey. I did tell him that he's perfume smells SUCKS, know what he did afterwards? He HUG me, and asked me if i had fainted, the answer.... almost!!!!!!!!!!
.
This year was kinda relaxing... on the first day i guess, lunch was the usual, having it at Uncle Ming's house, hit the car & start d journey back to Muar, wait for dinner at 7:30pm at 新奇冷气酒店 (Xin Qi Air-Cond Restaurant), previous years... it was a building with the space of a school hall, but now it had build a new building somewhere near Jalan Indah, *must have been earning well*, the food was.... okok oni la, not very nice, obviously the portion is cutting a lot & they charge one table 1-Yu Shang 2-Starter(Spring Roll, Yam) 3-Shark Fin Soup 4-So called Abalone 5-Piglet (1/4 of d whole piglet) 6-Fish (Bak Chong) 7-Another So called abalone with min sin 8-dessert (OoNi - Yam, Pumpkin & Ginko - A Teo Chew Specialty Dessert) & Fried Pandan Kaya with sesame seed. All this cost RM400.00/table, expensive? It's Chinese New Year, that's what everyone always said. Lucky thing i'm not the one paying for it, cause if i'm going to treat my friends for lunch, it will never be this kind of place.
.
So now i'm back at the hotel, because my loved one had fell asleep very very early today, i think KM skipped the nappie time, so i should let the slumber take over KM's mind, and leave her in peace. There isn't much to talk between us, but there are many challenges will need to be face by the both of us, i hope we're well prepared & make things out no matter how hard it will be.
.P.S. I Love You

Carved Within: Religion War

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 21 — Two suraus in Muar, Johor were damaged in suspected arson attacks early this morning, weeks after similar attacks against churches, believed to be linked to the controversial “Allah” ruling.
.
Police found traces of kerosene in the Sirratulrahim Surau in Kampung Sabak Awor, Jalan Ismail which had a window and curtains burnt, while the Parit Beting surau suffered worse damage.“There is a black mark on the door,” Muar Deputy OCPD Lee Choon Guan told The Malaysian Insider when contacted at the Parit Beting surau.The police forensics team is now taking evidence the surau.Lee said police are cautious in linking the incident to a spate of attacks on houses of worship over the divisive “Allah” ruling.“
.
My forensic team found traces of splashed kerosene so it may have originated from outside the surau’s compound,” he said at the scene of the first attack.Lee’s superior, Muar OCPD Mohammed Nasir Ramli, had earlier refused to confirm if the first incident was a result of an arson attempt.He told The Malaysian Insider that the Sirratulrahim Surau had suffered minor damages in the pre-dawn blaze.“We are still investigating... we don’t know if it was attacked, we can’t say that. Let the police do its investigations first,” he said in a phone interview.
.
The Muar police chief said three youths from the area had discovered the damage at about 3am and reported it to the police.The Johor police are expected to release an official statement later this evening.Nine churches, a mosque, a surau, a Sikh temple and a convent school have been damaged by fire, paint or stones since Jan 8.Police obtained a seven-day remand order yesterday for eight youths arrested in connection with the first attack on the Metro Tabernacle church, on Jan 8. Two were brothers who suffered burns said to be a result of the attack.
.
Another person detained is their uncle.The attacks came in the wake of the Dec 31, 2009 High Court ruling that allowed Catholic weekly Herald to use the term “Allah” to describe the Christian God in their Bahasa Malaysia section. The government has appealed against the decision and obtained a stay of execution.
.
In a statement today, DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng condemned “the destructive behaviour of the perpetrator of such irresponsible attacks, who clearly intended to provoke suspicions among our multi-racial and multi-religious communities”.“We urge the police to step up its investigation and monitoring mechanism to bring the perpetrators to justice, and to prevent any further similar incident from happening in order to safeguard our harmonious way of life,” the Penang chief minister said.

KL Dragon Vs Satria Muda

5th Jan 2010

This is the 5th game of KL Dragons in ABL, they were playing against Satria Muda Brit Ama from Indonesia. I don't how how grand the event was until i saw it with my own eyes.

--------------------------------->Before the game starts

.

------------------------------->Ladies giving out freebies to VIPs

.. There's a guy from the opponent team, he look like someone from the 3rd world country (Or maybe he is), the team will walk across from the VIP entrance to the opposite side of the court towards the team locker room. Visiting team will get to warm up at the court, but this guy in the picture, dance along the music as if he's celebrating the winning before the game starts, this guy seriously need to learn more about being "humble".

----------------------------------->Drum performing

Yup, they have drum performing before the game starts.

-------------------------------> Cheerleading Team

That's what they are, the cheerleading team, refering to Kheng's opinion a.k.a Highclass Clubbers. They look more like a clubbers than a cheerleading team, trust me, i've went to a cheerleading competition with Yau Suen & Bilqis before, i know what does cheerleader do and it's definitely not the one you're looking at.

------------------->Seriously, who does this more? Cheerleaders or clubbing girls?

The main reason i want to attend the game if for this particular player, #5 Yeow Loong, surprisingly he's the 2nd shortest player in the team but he sure can jump.

Couldn't get a clear shot, but the player in white is #5 Yeow Loong. The pic made me want to get a DSLR camera more to capture fast shot like this.

--------------------------------> KL Dragon warming up

-------------------> Rappers - Rapping for KL Dragon before game starts

--------------------> And they welcome the main players from each team

--------------------------------> National Anthem (Negaraku)

-----------------------------------> And the game starts

The crowd was singing the Dragon's theme, the atmosphere had been emotional, all supporters were supporting loud. There is also a crowd of Indonesian supporters, reminded me when we're still in junior school, what do we usually do to "pray" for opponent to miss the free throw?

~Tidak Mungkin, T-I-D-A-K M-U-N-G-K-I-N~ Haha, so guess what Kheng & Me sing? Wee Wang Wang~ Wee Wang Wang, but it doesn't help much though. I'm not sure if the team is being bribe to lose or they are just not performing well yesterday, there's no rebound, many shots were not entered, we had lots of missing passes.. although the crowd was supporting, they were Boo-ing the team as well for making some huge mistakes.

In the opponent team, a player name Hartman, look like a middle eastern boy, showed anger toward the refree for being unfair with his judgement in calling fouls, was "negotiating" with the refree. But he is a good player, with his height and excellent dribbling skill with sharp 3 point following one another and another and another, they deserve to win i would say, so that the team wouldn't be ashamed for the nigger earlier for butt dancing in the middle of the stage, showing off to the crowd.

So what's the score?

-----------------------------> KL Dragon 57 ----- Satria Muda <---------------------------
