our bio A2 is currently covering on biodiversity. so in accordance to the chapter our bio teacher showed us a video that really had almost all the girls in our class cry. ok, so i named this the crying period. u'll understand why later. and if u r an animal lover or will cry at any cruelty or sad events, please skip the next paragraph.
actually when the video started, it actually showed a small raccoon-like animal struggling with all its 4legs while being hanged suspended from a man's hand. then the man actually swung this animal with full force and smashed it on the ground. this was already horrible, and you could actually hear the animal crying out, as if all the sound it made was unintentional and forced out of its lungs. then the cameras actually turned on to an Alsatian dog. like the small raccoon animal, it was also hanged suspended by its tail while struggling furiously to get out of their grasp. perhaps the most heart breaking thing at that time was hearing the dog howl in horror as the hunter wielded his knife and started to cut the fur coat of the dog from it penis. from there onwards, the man just tore the skin off the dog while men who were surrounding the scene were jesting on how amusing the event looked to them. when the tearing reached the head, they yanked the whole skin off forcefully and then threw the still breathing dog to a heap of carcasses beside the man. at the time, the dog was breathing in an agonizing manner, no tears, no sound, just the harsh breathing of a rough pink-fleshed animal with only hints of their former fur around the sockets of their eyes, lying there, almost too wiped out from a staggering amount of pain. there were like around thousands of captive animals there, some were hitting against the cage, trying to escape while the others just sat quietly, trembling, knowing anyway that they were going to die. can you imagine that those beautiful sleigh dogs that were shown as happy, playful, hardworking big alive bundles of white and grays in tv being submitted to such a life? and do you know why they kept those animals alive while butchering them? they kept them so because the fear they produce will induce hormones in their bodies to keep the fur soft. this is just so purely disgusting, yuck!
although i didn't cry throughout the whole video, i felt as if some parts of me had just died, just like that and i felt so numb in some sense that i couldn't feel anymore emotions surrounding me than only being aware that i dammed up something in myself. i could only hear what the teacher said throughout the lecture afterward but all of those words just had no meaning anymore.
i went into that phase a lot of times in my life, but when it became too much, i had a lot of trouble going back to normal again. although i understand what such things does to my life, it was not something that u get use to.
but i just want to say this, if u see someone selling furcoats on the streets (usually when u go to the north) or in any place else, DO NOT BUY!! really, you'll regret ur spur of the moment when you meet these animals, because they are truly beauties of nature and BEAUTIES STAY ALIVE WITH EVERYTHING ATTACHED TO THEM! anyway, fur coats are not suitable for humans, they make you look like big bird from sesame street. if they did, then we would have them sprouting throughout our bodies (which most people will shave off !!)
stressed out!
hey, everybody in their whole miserable life will hit this point at many parts of their lives!! i practically am pulling out my hair this time. retaking all of the subjects meant that i will sit for 12 damned papers, and i asked myself the whole time, why did i take science when i was young. oh yea, i remember my so-called expectation made me do it. but then i love nothing more than science, i should have known when to quit and when to start sometimes. nvm about my random babbling, nobody will understand me through this haze anyway...

valentines!!!
oh yea just changed my background to suit the valentines mood. anyway, happy valentine's day everybody!!! if anyone got dates then treat your partner well okay, or else for boys: you'll get kicked on the shin by the end of the day, for girls: he'd be damned broke that he couldn't buy you presents for 14th of march, april, may, june , july and so on... haha, just kidding, enjoy your day!!!
my day out yesterday
okay, i noe its kind of my fault that i haven't posted a blog since god knows when. so sorry about that... wow, i don't really know how buzy i really am these days, just got my internet 3 days ago. honestly if you happen to want to sign up for streamyx (broadband) in malaysia then you need to prepare to lay down some money for your car fuel as well. since i am not staying in my previous address anymore, i had to shift my address from one end of penang to the other. to do that i had to open up my eyes for available parking lot in a traffic jam-proned city. and as everybody knows, the police in malaysia are so damned efficient when it comes to taking down the car plate number and of course in collecting fines. which policemen wouldn't be then if it comes to adding incentives to their staid and stoic income? to be honest, i would do that too. as for streamyx, well, i asked for a change of address 2 months ago, had to go to the office by myself for like 5 to 6 times per month. 3 times were for the installation of my new telephone line, and the rest for the activation of my internet and i thought it was only Brunei who were severely inefficient when it comes to work... no offence, i am just talking about the people who wronged me when i was there, (which is quite a scant number)...
oh yea enough of my internet connection, yesterday i just went out with friends to watch benjamin button. it was actually a last minute decision. well if you want me to comment about the movie, then i'll only say this: it is not what you would normally rate a fantastic show, nor is it a bad one, but then the show is definitely interesting. it will really keep you on your feet until the very last second of the show. my friend even shed tears when brad pitt became a kid. you all should watch it then you'll know what i am talking about.
see that picture above? the lil man is actually brad pitt, the effect of the makeup is unbelievable. have you all seen the trailer? if you did, then you'll get quite a good summary of the show, but then suprisingly you'll still get a lot of new things popping out. so i'll say this, two-thumbs up to the author!!!
have you all heard about the Kim Gary restaurant before? see the black and white 'wall' where a lot of people are sitting behind that. that is the restaurant. well it is actually opened by a hongkee (i think), with the hong kong actor Kim Gary as their representative.
one of the menu pages from the restaurant
well we actually went there to eat yesterday, so if you live in malaysia and also have an mJ card, then you'll get a 5% off your total bills. well guess what the 5% was all about... i'll tell you anyway, when you go to any restaurant in malaysia, they will have all those promotions set so strikingly on the table and beside the restaurant entrance itself. then when you finish your food, your bill will always come this way:
the long list of food you ordered
a.
b.
c.
d.
e.
.
.
.
then comes your 5% offer (wow you will feel really happy here!!!)
.
.
.
then comes the goverment taxes, which is the same price as the 5% offer
(now you thought okay, no prob, anyway nothing in this world is free, but the bill still goes on...)
.
.
.
service charge (you think okay, nvm anyway they work hard too)
but then guess what when you look at the price... wah!!! the price is the twice the amount of the discount prices and the goverment taxes. haha, it was really funny that no one around me showed any expressions when they looked at the prices. our total bill was 108 so the service charge was around 11 to 12 dollars. you really have to take down your hat and bow to the financial manager of the restaurant.
anyway apart from the bill itself, the food was actually quite well done. i like to think that they speciallize more on the line where western meets eastern delicacies, but if you are conscious of your body size then be prepared for a full week of diet meals after you take a meal there.
o about the next pic, it is actually taken from our shopping spree in the same malls several weeks ago. had really a lot of fun dressing up in the same t-shirt. my friend, maybelle said that we look like a group of waitress with a manager in the middle.
friends going from top,clockwise: xinrou, fennie, canness, alexis,me, maybelle, li xuen, hooi ying.
actually the t-shirts in malaysia are nice right? i didn't look quite as nice in that tee though, haizz, it always goes down to me not filling out any clothes... nvm, anyway, who says i don't look nice in this pic!

burgatti veyron
has anyone heard of a burgatti veyron? its actually the car above. posh right. check it out... this car is sold for US$ 1,175,000, has 1001 horsepower and a seven speed dual clutch. seeing this you can imagine how fast this car can really really go, since the normal car only has a FIVE speed SINGLE clutch. according to the online news, it is actually the most powerful and fastest luxury car in the world. it is a beauty but unfortunately only 300 of these are only sold throughout the world since it is actually a limited edition car. if someone really goes out with this car, he or she will be the first person to be robbed, so its kind of a showroom car. but really, for that price, who won't?
T.I. ft. Rihanna -
this is the official video of 'live your life'. i like this music. its quite catchy. this really describes a bit of a person's life. like the video said, life is really a surprise. the ironic thing about this video is that it reminds ppl to treasure what they have in life and TI (the male singer in the video) just got caught for distributing armed weapons. he's going to jail next year, so i guess there will be no more new song for him next year. but the truth about this video may be that, when he gets himself into illegal things, he got himself out by going to jail. pity though, he's quite talented in the hip hop world...
in KL's LCCT airport right now, nothing to do, but got high speed internet so.. i do what all sane ppl will do if they happen to carry a laptop with wifi gadgets in the airport... i am finally online... u noe, what i said was really really wu liao, but nvm, u r reading it so no prob!
me and my personal gold card.

haha, did u bliv that, anyway i admit, it wasn't my card but my aunt's. with any gold or platinum card (i think) you can sit in the airport lounge for free, although the time limit is different. you can sit in the lounge for the whole day if you have a platinum card. for my (ahem, i repeat my aunt's) gold card i can only sit in the lounge for free for two whole hours ONLY! what kind of policy is that anyway?! me, i am left stuck in mcD's if i am not in the lounge and you should have seen how damn packed the airport itself is since, ppl come from all kinds of places in ALL KINDS OF INSANE HOURS. but then the only good thing is that i can plug in my lappy without worrying about how long i can use it. since my aunt's card is a gold one, i can only stay until 3 in the morning. i can't sleep anyway, never did when i am travelling. should have brought my uncle's platinum... nvm, lesson heed lesson learnt...
this is part of the airport lounge, the 2 main things that i love about the airport lounge is that it has partitions so, i kinda have some privacy with what i am doing. look at the pic above and you can see that the camera is facing the entrance, so the officials are not quite snooping to my privacy as well. the second thing that i like about the lounge is that it is not packed. but after 3 i am getting my butt outta here. oh, by the way, for every 3 hours in the lounge u have to pay 80 ringgit malaysia. a bit expensive since there is nothing that you can really do except eat the meal, snug your butt on those cushions and play with the internet. but they don't bother you and give you privacy for your whole hour anyway.
this is my first pic in the lounge, see the plant there, i guess that's fake. if you want to plug in your computer then this is right place since the cushion is right next to the walls where the plug points are.
me sitting at the cushion, listening to some music.
don't care about this pic anyway. anyone who knows me well knows i am damn vain. haha, if mom could see my blog, i guess she will go into an apoplexy, so many colorful curses. when hath one blog been so bonnie in different hues... i am really going shakespear. talking about shakespear, i don't really like classics, but i guess, me and shakespear really share one common ground - we both like dramas. anyway, who doesn't? only i like the modern kind and he likes the extinct kind (dino here i come..)
oh right back to the airport, my flight at 8:50 yesterday night delayed for half an hour and since i already sat at the airport from 4 o' clock in the afternoon, i am already tired of waiting for my flight to come. so when they announced the delay i was so flabbergasted that i really wanted to hang my mouth open in agony. the flight was further delayed for 10 to 15 minutes and i was annoyed, really annoyed. i arrived at LCCT at midnight, and waited another 1 hour for all the baggage to go through. i had no choice, so i sat on the trolley (which i almost topple over)... then walked straight into the lounge. i swear tommorrow when the doctor happens to check up on me the first thing he will notice is that i'll be having blisters on my seriousl deflated butt. after 3, i am really not going to sit for at least 30 minutes. anyway have to go pack, my time is almost up...
