Just sit here

I was watching this video and thinking.. if I could work here.. I could just sit here for hours just to look at them... and then the lyric of the song that was playing went "I can sit for hours here...." What a coincidence...


Every time I see the face of a primate, especially orang utan and chimpanzee... my heart melts....................... You cannot understand how strong I feel when I see their face......................... I never felt this way with human babies. It's just so.............. mm..... there's no word that could describe how I feel...

When I watched this video, before I saw the part their mothers were killed, I was already crying, they are just so beautiful....................... When I watched Connie Talbot sang Somewhere Out There with her angel-like song for the first time, I cried too. If I was younger, I probably won't cry. I never understood why do people cry for beautiful and happy things in the past. Now I do.

I like to buy towels

I really love to buy towels. Normally people can use a piece of towels for years right? But I like to change one when they are getting "hard" (after wash) and thin. I can't change as much as I would like to because my brother and mother will "make a lot of noise"...

Look at these two, aren't they a beauty? Not to mention they are extremely soft. They are thick, but soft. You know how some thin towels, after you used it (after a shower) they get all wet? These here don't. Cos they are thick enough to absorb more water.
I don't like those normal ones with only one, plain colour. It makes me happy when I use such beautiful and soft towel~ haha...

This evening I went to Parkson with my brother, I wanted to buy a new towel again, to change the one in my room in Singapore. I think I spent at least 10minutes at the few racks of towels... I felt and touched almost every one of them. I want one not so ex (around RM20+-) but thick enough and soft. The ones I liked at one touch... are usually above RM30 and 40..... Think I'm becoming a "towel connoisseur"... Then no choice, I have to resort to cheaper ones but still thick enough for my taste.

There wasn't any specially pretty ones like the ones I have. Finally I chose one, RM29.90. It's plain colour with a stripe of printing. The staffs must be critisizing me.. spent such a longgg time choosing one towel...

The best has yet to come. My bro and I walked towards the cashier, I thought and thought.... I still prefer one with colourful printings... maybe I should go Jusco to buy...since.. you don't buy a towel everyday... In the end... I decided not to buy. My bro put the towel back to the rack, I dare not walk near there.. cos I spent a lot of time there, took out quite a few towels... If I go there again and put back the towel... the staff sure will give me an evil look. hahahahaha....

Gosh, I can write so much about a towel...

Woman's body??

Someone enlighten me please... I saw this ad while I was running errant for work. I don't understand what's it all about...
Click to view bigger image.

Is that company selling cars' exhaust pipe? And what does that have to do with a woman? If my eyes are not playing tricks on me, THAT is a woman's naked body, right?? Right?? What's the two got to do with each other??? "Incredibly well".... does the ad creator loves women so much and think women are "incredibly well" like the exhaust pipe?????

Maybe I'm too stupid to understand this ad. Please enlighten me..

Videos of Similan

Have a look at the videos of my trip to Similan~ Video shot mainly by Gabriel, edited by me. Please give me comments of the editing and music~ (Do note that these videos were taken using digicam video function, no red filter nor lightings. Therefore the colours are not good.) Part 2 and 3 are most interesting.

Part one (9:03min) - intro of friends and the journey from Spore budget terminal to jetty to our liveaboard : The Excalibur.



Part two (9:20min) - underwater footage (the diver with translucent/blue colour fins is me~) , sneak up on divers taking a nap and interesting turtles that kept coming back for food.



Part three (8:09min) - scene before a night dive and underwater footage with interesting octopus (notice the fish beside which kept followed the octopus~).
And I deliberately delayed the start of the music so that the part of music which started to sound "exciting" coincide with the many little fishes coming in.
Also, there's one part showing tiny fishes being cornered among the rocks and many predator fishes came to join the feast.



Part four (6:26min) - photos of my friend Andy's birthday celebration, my friend Tiffany "wanting" to take her weights home , scenes of returning journey, scenes in shopping mall and don't miss out the ending, which I thought was pretty good. hehe.

Voice of an angel

This, is the voice of an angel.


Connie Talbot has got an album now~ Good for her! Every time I hear her singing, my heart melts.

There are people on Youtube compared her with other 6 years old. That other 6 years old has very powerful voice. But it's very common. You can see this kind of kid performance in Malaysia/Singapore's "getai"(歌台).

What's so great about Connie is that her voice is so pure, still sounds like a kid as she is supposed to be. Whereas the other "powerful 6 years old" sounds like adult. Connie's "抖音" (i don't know what's it called in English...) is so natural. I'm not exaggerating, but when I listen to her songs intently, it's so beautiful that it makes me wanna cry..

I love this little girl. All the best to her.

命里有时终需有

命里有时终需有, 命里无时莫强求

这句话再对不过了。可是真要做到那样“莫强求”,可不容易。现阶段的我,开始可以把这句话容入我的生命了。

人,想要的东西太多了。 虽然我想要的也只是很简单,很基本的东西,但是 别人得来容易,不代表我也会轻而易举的得到它。可能...一辈子都不会有。

莫强求啊,凡事都要莫强求。 我的生命中大概真的是永远会有一个缺口吧...不完整的人生......... 不完整,那又如何? 日子照样得过...只能在不完整当中寻找快乐。。。

Edison edison edison

The recent sex photo case of Edison. The whole world is talking about it. The whole world is looking for those photos. Really unfortunate incident for him and the girls.

Allegedly, there are people offering HKG$500,000 if one can chop down Edison's hand. It seems like the whole world is condemning Edison, as if he had killed someone. But why??? He is "naughty" to take those photos. But all the girls did it willingly. What did Edison do wrong? The only thing that we can blame him is his carelessness. Yes he had many sex partners. So what? Plenty of people have many sex partners. As long as he's not a rapist.

Yes those girls are pitiful now that the whole world had seen their most private parts. But they did it willingly and I guess, happily, so they themselves must bear the risks and the consequence. One can say Edison is a sex maniac but I don't think he committed any crime. Unless his girlfriend Vincy was below age when they had sex. Other than that, hey, you're willing, I'm willing, the hell with other people.

They should concentrate on hunting the culprit who released the photos. Yet the public just want Edison to die. Crazy world. and idiot people.

Badminton and bus

I was having such wonderful dream this morning. In the dream I was in a badminton match. I was at point 14 - game point. When I was about to serve, "piiii----" ............... The bus downstair at my block had to sound his horn..... And I totally woke up from the sweet victory I was about to have! What the fuck! *(@#&$(@*&#*(%$

Zoo again-1st trip in 2008

Went to the zoo again~! Went with Gabriel on Monday. It was so great, cos it's not a public holiday and it was very quiet in the zoo and we can walk in a very relax pace.

We always like to stop and look at tiny little stuffs like dragonflies, spiders, flowers, etc etc.

The one thing I was eager to see is the new cheetah enclosure~ There's a glass pane now and we're lucky that the cheetah was resting behind the glass pane! Although cheetahs are naturally slim and thin but when you're that close, you'll still marvel at how thin they are. Then when you go on to see lions next, you'll go "Oh... so fat..." hahahah...

Isn't it gorgeous~



Every time I look at meerkats, I just can't believe how cute they are..... Extremely adorable..

Isn't this photo wonderful? Yeah, I am praising myself. hehe. But I really feel this photo is wonderful. :p

We almost witness bats mating! Look at this! The male bat's penis has gotten really long and big! He climbed over to the female but she wasn't in the mood. She tried to bite him and then climbed away. And then the male's penis shrunk rrrreally fast. So funny.

Acrobat eating style!


Potrait of a lemur. They are just so wonderful creatures. These at the zoo, couldn't care less about us the human around them. So funny.

Look! This one here just remained there looking around calmly while we caress it gently.
People at the zoo don't advise people to touch animals. But why then would you want a dome enclosure like this? I believe the Steve Irwin way. That is to let people interact with animals in a safe, control way. Well, not that he did it in a safe way.. anyway, I miss him.

It's so fluffy! Gorgeous animal~ If only I ever get to hug one~

The Professional

I think, I can be a professional killer now. Cos I think I have quite steady hands. hahahahahah...

On CNY I took firework photos, without tripod. AND.. because the one who set off the firework was my neighbour 1 house away... it's really close and the sound was loud. My left hand covered my left ear, my right hand was holding the point and shoot camera. I had to use my right shoulder to cover my right ear while trying to take photos of the firework above my head. You try to do this. Go on, try, it's really painful after 30seconds or so. Plus, I have to keep my hand steady in order to take firework photos... and every time the firework burst "BOOM", my hand jumped, cos it's really too loud for me. So it's really difficult... After it's over, my neck almost break.......................

However, I got some really nice photos~ but just one try only. My neighbour last time set off a lot of firework, this year only once...

The photos came out pretty well eh? But since I'm afraid of the noise, I probably can't become a killer. But wait, killer uses silent guns what~~~ So I can be a killer afterall~ hhahaha.. siao..

Facebook

It's just so weird that guys on the facebook thought they can make friends with you by just one click. Just add you as friend and wait for you to add him as well. I've had been added quite a few times and it's just nothing but annoying. Well, I should feel flattered, you will say. I am, actually. But who would make friends with you if you never even bother to drop a line or two? Although... those who did drop me a line or two, I hardly reply either. hahaha...

But my point is, just click "add as friend" every time they see someone whom they like... is just .. stupid. No sincerity. For guys out there, I hope you won't make the same mistake. But I doubt any of my guy friends are like dat.

Caterpillar infestation!

You'll never guess what happened this morning~! I was out "hunting" for caterpillars!

They've been quite abundance since some time back, even crawl into our living room! My mum hates all these creepy crawlies. This morning there were a lot of them on the outside wall! I think she had killed at least 10 of them. One even got into our toilet!! They are one fast crawling caterpillar I tell you. The fastest I've seen!

But they look kind of pretty to me, as long as I don't touch it...

This one here was hanging on its life. It's been busted by my brother. Its "organs?" had came out but it was still moving. I think those organs got stuck to the floor so it couldn't move. Else it was still capable of moving, I'm sure.

My mum was complaining a lot, she rreally really hates all these especially caterpillars and earthworms. So I went outside to see if I can find where they come from. My house is a corner house in the middle of a road. Between the 2 corner houses there's a pathway and 2 "longkang" (drains) alongside. And grass growing beside the longkang. And not long later, I went "Wah!", "Wah!", "Wah! Wah! WAH!" non-stop. They were EVERYWHERE! This one here even got eggs! But... on a closer look, I suspect those black stuff could be caterpillar poo instead of eggs...

See in this photo there're 3!! I dare not kill them. It's disgusting to squash them. Asked my bro to spray insecticide... I wonder they grow into butterflies or moths? If not my mum and bro will make A LOT of noise, I think I will keep one in a bottle to see what it'll turn into..
In the end I think I must have found at least 40 caterpillars..!! Including those my mum killed then it's more than 50!! Geez....

In the midst of looking for caterpillars, I saw this~! A victim of spider I guess? But the spider was not at home.

And I spent quite some time "among the grass".. and took some photos. I had always love this tiny flower since I was little. They have this little flower which does not look like the usual flowers where they have petals around the center. If you look carefully, they really do have an interesting look.


These are tiny tiny grass flowers as well. I feel they are adorable.

While hunting the caterpillar my brother saw a lady bird~! It's quite big and walking quite fast.

Back in my house compound. Do flies eat flower pollen??? I thought they only fond of faeces...


This is a small flower as well.

It's really fun to spend a little time looking at the grass patches, looking for creatures. We city people hardly do that anymore. I should do it more often :D

大年除夕car window broke down

My family car's power window had to break down on today.... today..! Lunar near year's eve! Jeesus... Went to authorised service centres to try our luck but of course they were all closed. I then went to the shop which my kancil used to go last time. They were not open for business but the door was not entirely closed... so my bro and I went in and asked for help. That uncle is actually my "relative's relative".. And he kindly helped us to take a look. He said to us wonder if the spareparts shop has the sparepart for this car... Luckily they do.

Here's our car ... waiting for sparepart to come. The steel on the floor was the spoilt part.


Totally bent...

The part came~! so happy...

Luckily I went to this shop... else I have to stick plastic on the window... which was half open... The repair cost only RM50. Whew...

Here's me sitting on the floor.. waiting... taking photo of my own reflection. ahhaha...
