Hey Readers!

I just found out most of the people around me reads my blogs! Wee~

I've got a long lost friend from LEO, Ming Sheng, told me my posts were so interesting that he spent more than an hour going through my blog!!!

My Taylors' and uni friends were like: Omg, I lurvve your mango post!
I told them there's part 2 for it already. And they answered: Yeah, you've got an evidence at home now! lol

My Dad was a constant updater for the churches burnt post. Sms right up!

My Bro too... sent some links over.

Some people thinks I'm doing Zoology, as there's more posts on animals than other topics. (No I'm not ok. I don't mind working with animals though.)

My Mom spends her lunchtime reading through.

I couldn't help! But some of them laughed over it out loud, when they are supposed to be quiet at the particular place.

My Twitter friends from all over the world commented on it! Thanks people!

So far those who commented on my posts left their names behind, but there's three anonymous. Guess you won't wanna remain anonymous as it's hard for me to acknowledge you and thank you! =D

I appreciate what you readers have done so far: commenting, passing the link around to others etc. At least now I know that you all represent the stats I've been seeing from Google Analytics!

Amazing Stories from Amazing Animals

Animals have this sort of instinct, they know when we are in deep shit, they know when we are goofing around with them, they just know it...

Here are some animals that actually saved people's life, which I find it really unbelievable:

1.

Pig dashes into street for heart attack victim

JoAnn Altsman had a heart attack and collapsed to the ground. Lulu, her daughter’s pot-bellied pig, rushed out of the house, lying down in the street to stop traffic. The pig tried relentlessly to get help, returning to the house to check on JoAnn, only to rush back to the street desperate for help. Finally, one person stopped and followed the determined pig back to the house, where they found JoAnn in pain on the floor. She was immediately rushed to a hospital.

2.

Beluga whale saves drowning diver

Diver Yang Yun was part of a competition to hold her breath for as long as possible in a pool of beluga whales in China. The dive was running smoothly until she tried to move her legs and they wouldn’t move. That’s when Mila, one of the beluga whales, came to her rescue. Sensing something was wrong, the whale immediately swam to the drowning diver, took Yun’s leg in her mouth and lifted her to the surface to breathe, saving her life.

3.

92 stranded sailors saved by a dog named Tang

In 1919, a ship called Ethie crashed into rocks stranding 93 sailors amidst stormy seas. After one of the sailors was swept out to sea, the crew turned to Tang. With the rope in his mouth, the dog leaped into the water. When he reached land, onlookers were amazed to discover that his jaw was still fastened to the rope. All 92 of the remaining sailors were pulled to safety due to Tang’s ceaseless bravery.

4.

Gorilla protects boy who falls in zoo enclosure

Here’s the remarkable story of Jambo, a silverback gorilla at the Jersey Zoo. After a young boy, Levan, fell into the gorilla’s zoo enclosure, fracturing his skull and breaking limbs, Jambo immediately came to his aid. The silverback stood firmly next to the young boy and even stroked his back in comfort, protecting the boy from danger. When Levan woke up and began to cry, Jambo lead his entire troop away so human rescuers could reach the boy.

Isn't it amazing?!

Old granny stole my MNG... again~

Old Granny enjoys again...
Some of you may not have read about this yet... So here's a brief recap:
This old granny who collects recyclable products around my neighbourhood loves to come around my mango tree. Get a good read here: MNG stolen =(

So yeah... she's wearing a yellow shirt this time. With a cooler galah to pluck mangoes. After some feedbacks here and there, this time I called out: Mak Cik... (not shouting, just loud enough for her to hear.)

Gosh, I should get a video cam. Her reaction was really fast! After a mango fell on the ground, and she heard me calling. Both of her eyes went reaaally big, she placed her galah away. Bent down to grab the mango... And walked up the street real fast.

Mak cik ar... Mak cik... If you were a little slower and ask whether you can have more mangoes, I am more than willing to give you mangoes stored in my house.

Concrete evidence now in my house. Picture as below.. hehehe:

You may be thinking 'What's the wirings for?!'

It's to make the whole plucking process easier.

Don't understand? Go plant a mango tree. =)

I'm serious...

Anyway this is a baby bamboo... gosh I think she got this from my neighbour.

Right from its roots, as you can see.

I would like to say congrats to her again! She's the star of my day! My blog too! And I would like to thank her on behalf of my prairie dogs for having a new toy to nibble on!  

Tiger, Lion and Bear living together?!

This is what 1Malaysia should be like!

It is possible to see Baloo, who is a 1,000 pound bear, Shere Khan, a 350 pound tiger and Leo, who is also 350 pounds messing around like brothers

If we could all just get along like these three unusual friends, we would live in a much different world.

In human society, people often do not like others simply because they are different. Humans kill over this matter. In more normal and everyday life, people may not kill each other but may not be as friendly or open to those from a different background, with a different color, with different views, or even with a different style.

In the animal kingdom, dangerous predators are not generally friends — they keep their distance. But in some cases (i.e. when being raised together), animals and humans alike can learn to be caring friends with those they might not have ever said hello to.

In the short story below, you can see how a lion, a tiger and a bear (Shere Khan, Baloo and Leo) became true friends, in the real world not a Disney story.

Churches Burnt

Just because they have a row over the use of the "Allah" word?!?!
Can't they sort this out without such barbaric actions?

Like what I've just tweeted: talking about 1Malaysia... will the government take fair action into this? Or just gonna beat around the bush again?

Polymer Clay

Morning peeps!

Few days back I meddle with the polymer clay I bought from my friend last year.

Wanted to make a small telly, yet it turned out to look more like dark chocolate topped with white chocolate.

Decided to make a car, but it doesn't look like it. (Didn't even bother snapping a pic of it)

Realised that it looks easy to make, yet to actually make it, it's quite tough, patience-testing.

Mixed the white and bits of black, made a heart shape. (easiest to make haha)

Then wanted to make a cute human figure, which turned out like this:

It looks too cute, so I decided to add ears and rosy lip.

This is it! Cool eh?!

How to Make a Jewellery Box- Pt 2

Materials you need:

1. Unwanted pantyhose (Colour of your choice)

2. Sushi take-away container

That's it! Here's how the end product looks like: : : :

Reuse Reduce Recycle

Have fun making! =]
Note: Stretch the panthose to desired tightness. You wouldn't want it to be too tight till it's going to tear apart, nor too loose till it can't hold up your earrings.

Don't Apply for Streamyx! Til You Read This..

Streamyx a.k.a. TM net, with the Blue Hippo

When you're living at Malaysia, every thing here moves slowly, not only the internet connection, and it also highly depends on who is doing it, get what I mean?

Anyway, connection was really slow last week, and there were no connection at all for the past 3 days. No earlier notices, nothing. Worst thing was, we called up, and they don't even know why there's no connection. GG.

On top of that, we realised that our 512k plan is not upgraded to 1M plan. And we have paid 88MYR for so many years. They kept telling us our plan will automatically be upgraded to 1M.

It's really your choice to meddle with this really slow service. I guess it's time for me to potong it! and get P1 W1Max.

Here are some good read on how slow Streamyx can be:
