doggy (condolences)..

a day earlier from Halloween, failed to fend off the sickness (Canine Distemper), it died. days before, it stopped having the urge to move about. n finally gave up on its owner yesterday morning, bringing along 3 other domestic dogs. it was quite a pity to have it died so soon, since the breed was rarely found here. which could also be a reason for it to not survive the climate here. either way, the factor exist under a bright spotlight.

かわいそうな子犬 ..

yuki (ゆき、雪)..

my punk brought back another frog that night. he lost interest right after it stopped trying to escape. n the frog managed to stay alive for that exact reason.

danjo (男女)..

another adorable music with hilarious dances by the anime characters .. :D

leakage..

evening sky (at Friendship Park) ..
(photograph taken with my Moto v3x)

the adventure did not started out as grand as expected. presented in dull color, very much in slow paced. adaptation implied.

simultaneously in denial with another adventure portrayed all too beautifully, flowery words proven wrong with inconsistent actions. breath holding while noticing signals leaking through the air. rely solely on time itself, having faith that path will unfold itself n reveal every secret hidden underneath.

現在の冒険集中する ..

movie: mushishi (蟲師) live action..

the mushi (creatures) were portrayed to own supernatural powers. he lost his mother since young, n has the ability to see the mushi. he followed a mushishi (mushi master), traveled from place to places to help those suffered from mushi problem.

yet to catch its anime, i believe the anime should be much more interesting than its live action movie. the live action was slow but the idea was rather mesmerizing. the mushi was such beautiful creatures. worth a catch if you don't minda the slow moving plot. ;)

tag: habits..

received the personal tag from -akira-, to reveal some weird habits. somehow, i felt like being tricked into revealing my freakish side. it could still be fun !! ;)

1. i'm often too interested in human, both psychically n mentally. - yes, i still believe brain should be the tastiest part of human.
   
   
2. i tend to pretend to be confident when i'm actually shaking in fear, n the only situation that betrays me is me staggering. - others actually told me this without me realizing.
   
   
3. i'm very passive within a group of more than 2. therefore often interpreted as being withdrawn or proud. - me n my confidence issue. how about getting to know me before you judge me ??
   
   
4. i often unintentionally check others out, watching their every move n expressions, while guessing their thoughts. - i'm not judging, but the signals humans left leaking through the air do amuse me.
   
   
5. i'm quite obsessed with self-development ever since i was exposed to it, n keen to influence those around me in understanding life in a more in dept n interesting perspective. - life is in fact interesting, instead of just daily routines.
   
   
6. i'm rather demanding since i prefer things to be precise, "yes means yes, n no means no". Consistency is what proves our stand. - some call it too serious, some call it straight to the point. only those who really care is eager to show you their determination n support.
   
   
7. i'm always in search for "true" friends - no hidden emotions or secrets. be each others' "rant-absorber" if possible. - friends who are close to your heart is the rarest of all. quality over quantity, definitely.
   
   
8. i'm often thirst of information. let it be technical, politics or even personal lives, can never get enough of them. - the difference in us is what makes communication interesting n worthwhile doing. n Bond is usually resulted from these ongoing efforts.
   
   
   
   am tagging .. -rollakid-, who ran out of topics to blog.
   Boo !! :p
   

doggy..

being a thickly-furred double coat dog (meaning having both a soft undercoat n a coarser topcoat), the Siberian Husky is unsuitable for our climate. moved from one place to another, it has even less time to build up its immune system. resulted to be infected by the deadly dog disease - the Canine Distemper (狗瘟).

Canine distemper is a fatal infectious disease that mainly has respiratory (breathing n digestion) n neurological signs.

signs are such as fever, thickening of the footpads, diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration, coughing, labored breathing n loss of appetite. if serious, twitching of muscles n seizures might occurs.

there is No cure so far for such disease. totally dependable on the dog's immune system.

figurine: kokonoe rin (九重りん)..

character: Kokonoe Rin (九重りん)
anime: Kodomo no Jikan (こどものじかん)
release: 2007


a gigantic thanks to -rollakid-, my once lost love is no longer Lost !! finally laid my hands on my very own Kokonoe Rin (九重りん) !! the moment i hold her in my arms, my mind went blank as my heart thumped rapidly against my chest, i was nowhere on earth.

kokonoe was my First Love in figurines, n still my Only Love. this character from Kodomo no Jikan (こどものじかん) was so appealing that i fell in love with her even before catching its anime. no words best use to describe the passion, i just happen to love her so much !! X3

accomplishment?..

night sky falling in ..
(photograph taken with my Moto v3x)

i wasn't exactly thrilled when i received the news. somehow it is just so i can exchange it with my lost "peace", n hopefully has the urge to return to my "home sweet home" from now onwards.

as much as i wanna live My life, i still ended up being their puppet. there ain't exactly choices to choose from, but for the sake of me desperately needing the "calmness n peacefulness", it is finally concluded that my pride is worth sacrificing. :p

お静かに欲しいだ ..

anime: lucky star (らき☆すた)..

a Must-Watch for anime lovers !! for the love of otaku-ism, the anime has all it takes to make you laugh to your heart's content. =3

the anime portrayed the lives of 4 school girls - kagami (かがみ), tsukasa (つかさ), miyuki (みゆき), n konata (こなた) - an otaku (a term used to refer to people with obsessive interests in anime, manga, n video games). the anime is presented in a very loose sense of humor, making it simple n enjoyable.

Perodua Nautica 4WD

released at the end of April 2008, it looks fairly like Toyota Rush to me .. except being a local brand. 1.5 liter DVVT engine, n it comes in automatic transmission (gear) only.

i'm actually .. only interested in its name ..

nautica, the Naughty Car !!

comes in 2 colors ..

yuki (ゆき、雪)..

my punk took back a grasshopper this time. he had fun throwing it high n biting off one of its hind leg .. until it stopped breathing n laid there unmoving, n he lost all interest n dozed off right beside it. :p

gundam 00: seravee (gn-008)..

virtue (GN-005) n seravee (GN-008) ..

ever since i was exposed to gundam Virtue (GN-005), i was attracted to its unique shape n outlook. it has tough physical armor with defensive shield (GN field). the GN Drive core will be exposed when Virtue's chest plate is opened. with the GN Bazooka attached to its core, GN particles will be directed into the bazooka for firing. stability is essential, making Virtue appeared big in size, n its overwhelming firepower is what makes Virtue powerful.

gundam Seravee (GN-008) has yet to expose its uniqueness. there is, however, an extra "head/face" at the back of the mobile suit, helps to boost the GN field (shield) if attacked from behind. the GN Beam Saber is no longer hidden near the hip, but in its arm. the 2 GN Bazookas in hand, n the 4 GN Cannons on both shoulders n knees, provids higher firing coverage.

gundam Virtue (GN-005) is found in Gundam 00 season 1; gundam Seravee (GN-008), an upgrade of Virtue, is found in Gundam 00 season 2.

currently airing: Gundam 00 Season 2 (Episode 3)

"head/face" at the back ..

lonesome..

closeup of flowers n dews ..
(photograph taken with my Moto v3x)

as the emotion fends off all the pleasantness around me, i realized that it is so true that i'm afraid of feeling lonely n left out. jealousy or insecurity ?? i ain't sure what took hold of me.

all senses shutdown as i instinctively search for an escape route. fortunate enough not be left unattended when the emotions kicked in. concerns were shown n words were formed, bits by bits it reached deep within the initially shutdown heart n warmed it.

we don't need many friends,
we just need a few, who Really Cares.

anime: 劇場版 bleach: the diamonddust rebellion (もう一つの氷輪丸)..

hyōrinmaru (氷輪丸), the ice-dragon zanpakutō (斬魄刀), can only be manifested by one person, causes tōshirō (冬獅郎) to fight his best friend during studies. the past returned to haunt him, his "dead" friend is back. again, they are required to fight each other to death.

bleach's second movie of an average anime for me. the chasing part was very interesting, caused high expectation for the final battle. but it didn't turned out to be as grand as expected. however, the most rewarding satisfaction of the anime, was exposing tōshirō's private side n his struggle.

why are you smiling? could you please share how you're really feeling with us? we're family, aren't we? we're supposed to share how we feel inside, when we're happy n sad. otherwise, we'll all feel lonely n left out ..
- meaningful quote by Ichigo (一護) 's dad.

what's your temper (从生日推断你是什么脾气)..

received the forward email from -piggy-. although the personality passage was originally in chinese, i did a simple translation for it. so which one is yours ?? ;)

Don't Shoot the Puppy

was introduce the.. weird flash game by -rollakid-. simple yet "deadly". so how long can you stand Not doing anything with your mouse n keyboard ?? :p

play here: Don't shoot the puppy.

insensitivity..

the late evening sky ..
(photograph taken with my Moto v3x)

was thrown a rather accusative statement, twice, by the same person who once taunted n made fun of my past relationship (recorded on the March 18, 2008 post).

a sudden realization stroke me, he might not be the Problem itself .. but his Insensitivity to grasp the harshness of his own words. though it might sound funny to him, the exact statement could reopen a wound for another person. a feeling of forcefully dug soreness resurfaced.

still voicing similar remarks after more than half a year (since March until September), my guess is .. he haven't grew out of his insensitive-self .. yet. somehow it felt pointless talking sense into those that doesn't seemed to want it.

being in another relationship never does erase the previous pains, but it does make me clench tighter to the current happiness, served as a strength to soften the negativity by slightly slanting the perspective. n in time, transform into a less fiery leo. ;)

人せはいろい、いろいあたね ..

pig's cleanliness..

pigs are often misunderstood, as being dirty n stupid. hopefully the previous post on pig's intelligence cleared out some of those misunderstanding. ;)

pigs are Clean animals. they roll in mud, but only because they can't sweat like human. the mud (or water) keeps them cool. pigs, who are excellent swimmers, prefer water to mud. pigs are intelligent, highly social, n sensitive. they are actually more intelligent than any breed of dog. like dogs, piglets learn their names by 2-3 weeks of age. they are social animals. they form close bonds with each other, other species n humans. they are cooperative n often defend one another. they like being scratched behind the ears and shoulders. at the touch of your hand, will roll over for a belly rub.

(taken from Farm Animals.)

there you have it, pig's intelligence n cleanliness. better understanding yet ?? ;)

the episode that had me jumping in my seat the most, was watching Red Braver n Shinaider, an action animation, together with the characters. it got me so excited that i went screaming "redo bureva!" around the house. definitely worth the ride. ;)

圣淘沙美食中心 (sentosa delight centre)..

located near the 7th mile bazaar, the Sarawak Laksa served here taste average. enough muddiness, but not enough spicy. quite perfect for those who dislike their laksa to be too spicy to consume. therefore it is definitely not enough spicy for me .. :p

(photographs taken with my Moto v3x)

pig's intelligence..

remembered watching on Animal Planet, which mentioned pigs' intelligence being higher than dogs. dad's doubtful stare triggered my urge to find proof .. i know what i heard !!

Clarifications to Dog lovers:
the following information found isn't aim to critique dogs' intelligence. the reasons dogs are used as comparison, is solely because they are closer to human, therefore easier to understand.

"dogs look up to us. cats look down on us. pigs treat us as equals."
- Sir Winston Churchill, attr.

in the documentary "Look Who Is Talking Babe" (1998), pigs excelled in using computers, and dogs failed. the pigs were about as good as the chimpanzees. it is said that chimpanzees share 98% of their genes with humans. pigs too is quite close, but in different ways: their Organs n Skin. pigs has organs n skins that may be transplanted to humans, its size and build-up come close to humans'. Professor Stanley Curtis ranks the pig as number two among intelligent beings on the planet. Others suggest humans, apes n monkeys, dolphins n whales, n next pigs. what matters is that researchers insist that the pig is a bright n sensitive animal.

(taken from the Gold Scale)

pigs are idiots ?? think again .. i'll have a continuous post on pig's Cleanliness coming up soon. ;)

dvd: gundam seed destiny..

after finishing the previous Gundam Seed received from -akira-, he sent me another continuous dvd - Destiny, with the "pure" intention of igniting my interest towards gundam. another adventure begins !!

も一度、ありがとう！:D

patching..

sunset from the petrol station ..
(photograph taken with my Moto v3x)

Conflicts usually broke the completeness of a relationship (family, friends, couple). probably because i'm not a dove (from the personality test), i do not resent nor feel threaten by it. n the mending part is far more meaningful, interesting in allowing you to understand another person more thoroughly.

the challenge lies in the process, similar to the mending of electronic parts. if a relationship is worth holding onto, the patching will work out no matter how difficult it is. further insight is essential, to see past the current discouraged situation. failure to see through the mist will lead to exposure of the fragile bond.

人はおもしろいぞ！:D

kitty (condolences)..

woke up to find the kitty's body hard n cold. heat flow out of my body as i knelt beside the box n watched in terror. though the adults won't even look at it, we kept it for 2 nights. clean n fed it. it gave up on us this morning. we failed in saving its life, i failed .. all that was left over, is a few broken hearts n the bite marks it left on our fingers. how can i miss it when we haven't even bond ?? yet tears betrayed me completely ..

ごめんね ..

kitty..

poor kitty found at the doorstep, probably got lost from its mum. whining softly out of fear n hunger. still young, the kitty would be easy to treat back to health. with its tail still intact, i'm quite sure it will grew to be another Perfect Punk. ;)

Jay 周杰伦

i don't call myself his fan, because i do not fall for his person nor appearance. but his music i can't resist. a Fur Raising sensation that i can't say No to.

his music that caught me the most, is his r&b China styles' (中国风). the only artist that makes the style rock. when he started exploring the Opera slang (京剧), i was so thrilled that i hungered for it ever since. the excitement that flow through your vein !!

each of his music throws me into a sensational adventure - travel back to mysterious ancient time, forth to a dark magical kingdom .. there are so much more to explore just from the music itself.

お楽しいみに！:D

home sweet home?..

shadowy sky ..
(photograph taken with my Moto v3x)

the feeling of being bugged with trivial matters when you're sick is nerve wrecking. yea, controlling, i get it. but would you mind backing off a little, just let me breath for Now ??

years earlier i finally figured out that i'll always be a child to them. the fact that they are getting old, has locked that "child" image tight in their mindset. further conflicts are avoided after i accepted that fact .. unless i'm cornered (i snap when i'm cornered).

for that reason alone, i have no urge of staying home. the only corner worth returning to, is my computer n the little sanctuary i designed around it. would be great to add a little privacy to it .. but no, even privacy is too much to ask for, monitoring is on 24/7 as long as i'm home.

but for Now, please just give me some Peace n Quiet, thank you ..

お静かにくださいよ ..

花园海鲜小食馆 (garden cafe n restaurant)..

located near 3rd Mile's roundabout, behind Golden Arc building, the Sarawak Laksa served here is spicy, but lack of muddiness. the taste doesn't stayed in your mouth for too long, suspecting adding too much water to its soup ..
