National Level Debate Day 1

Hey guys!!!

I'm already here in Alor Setar, Kedah!!!

The journey lasted around 16 hours, and we (Sofiya, Anlynn, Rebecca, Sarah, me, Pn. Elizabeth and Mdm. How) traveled on a coaster...

A coaster? Yup, a coaster... We were told that it's like a cross between a van and a bus...

Anyway, the one we're traveling in looks like this:
It's the middle one... Pak Man?!?!?

Oh, some time ago, Zhi Wei (who was from Kedah) told me that when I'm in Kedah, I should let everyone know that not everywhere also got paddy field...

BUT THEN...

The first thing I saw when I woke up in the coaster in Kedah, I saw:
PADDY FIELD!!!

Then we went to eat!!!

My first meal in Kedah was..........
Nasi Lemak!!!

Oh, we're staying in a Hotel called Grand Crystal...

Anyway, some time this morning, my violin teacher called me up...

Me : Har???
Teacher : Your violin has been postponed.
Me : HARRR???
Teacher : The examiner is sick, so the exams have been postponed.

I was praying about the violin exams and stuff, and I knew that I haven't practiced enough...

And a little while after that, my teacher told me that my exam has been postponed...

Isn't God just awesome!!!

Man's Best Friend...

Hey guys!!!

I was just thinking about all the wondeful dogs I've had...

And I realised that dogs have played a very big part in my life!!!

I've had at least a dog since I can remember...

The first one being Snow...

She was a really cute one as she was really, really fat...

So fat that her tummy literally dragged on the ground every time she moved...

She was so fat that daddy had to put covers on the drain just so she could cross the drain...

mwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...

Anyway, that was a very long time ago and she died of some disease I can't remember (I was too young to know anything much then)...

Here are some photos that I found of the dogs I've had or I still have at home =]

Rexanne, the best guard dog ever

Rexanne looks tough and fierce (what else do you expect of a Rottweiler?) but is a big softie underneath...

She's huge!!!

I remember one time when I was a still very small, and she sort of jumped up on me...

Well, I totally fell backwards!!!

mwahahahahahahahahahaha...

Unfortunately, her best qualities as a guard dog was what brought her death...

Our poor Rexanne was poisoned one night...

Well, at that time, there were a lot of materials behind my house as they were building a new housing area at that time (now it's called Taman Tanjung Indah)...

Well, some people who wanted to steal things there got scared and probably irritated at Rexanne who kept barking at them...

So they threw a poisoned egg into our house...

Rexanne ate it and that was how she died...

Max, the poodle

Max was around together with Rexanne...

It always amazed me that Rexanne, such a big dog, and Max, such a small one, never fought...

They were friends, although we never put them in the same cage...

Max was always the playful one of the two...

And many people have told me that he looked like a gray sheep, a cute one though...

mwahahahahahahahahahaha...

He always had a terrible skin disease, even from before he got rescued by my super uncle, the vet...

We euthanised him not long ago because he was already very old and his body wasn't that good anymore...

Hi, I'm Max! Wanna be friends? Let me sniff you first, though =]

Next up, Amber and Hazel, the two sisters:
Niko and the two sisters

The one on the left is Hazel and the one on the right is Amber

Amber and Hazel...

These two were brought home from my great-grandfather's place in Kluang...

These two sisters are the only two that managed to give birth to a litter of puppies each...

Amber first, then Hazel...

Amber also left first, then only Hazel...

Well, Amber's story is really quite sad (not to mention maddening!!!)...

We gave her away even though I really, really, really had a very bad feeling about it on that day...

The person didn't even dare to touch Amber the day she took her, and daddy and mummy were at the office...

I saw it and called mummy to tell her about it...

Mummy told me that we had too many dogs at that time (puppies all over, dogs all over!!! I loved it, though >.<) and that she'd be happier being the centre of attraction over at the new owners' place...

I really, really, really didn't want to let the people have Amber but I had to admit that mummy had a point...

Why, I even made the person promise that she would take care of Amber properly!!!

A few days later, my family really missed her so we went to see her at her new place to see her and let her see a few familiar faces, also to see whether she was doing ok...

When we got to the place, she wasn't there so we called the uncle...

THEY LEFT AMBER IN A NEW HOUSE WITH ABSOLUTELY NOBODY!!!!!!!!!

The house was totally empty and it was a corner house, right beside a jungle or whatever it was!!!

I mean, hey!!! She just got out from her home for so many years, and you take her out, put her in a new place, and just leave her there... ALONE!!!

Anyway, the couple said that she was supposed to be there...

Well, she WASN'T!!!

We went around the whole place looking for her...

We did it for days, going round a round the area, but still couldn't find her...

Until now, I still don't know if she survived...

Anyway, we shall move on to the next sister...

Hazel also had her own puppies...

She actually just died a few days ago...

She wasn't feeling well, and on the night before she died, she kept hiding in the bushes and stuff...

We were all surrounding her and giving her milk and honey and treats and stuff...

She was so weak that she couldn't even move properly...

But as we were standing a few steps away from her, she started moving towards us and sort of collapsed because she didn't have enough strength...

It was like she knew she was going to die and wanted us to spend more time with her before she died...

Anyway, the next day, I came home from school only to find out that she had died and was already buried...

Some of the sisters' offsprings:
Amber with her little ones

The three musketeers!!!

Can I come into the house please?

I know I have a paw on the slipper, but I'm totally innocent!!!

Erm, maybe not so innocent after all... Showee...

We had two sisters above, and now we have three siblings!!!
Niko with Panda, Polar and Grizzly

Panda is the female while the other two are her brothers...

Among the three of them, Grizzly was the first one I fell in love with...

Why? Maybe a little because he was the one that was always bullied, the weakest one...

Anyway, he was also the first one among the three to die...

The other two (Polar and Panda) are still alive...

Polar has gone to join another family though, and is well fed and well looked after, I am pleased to say...

We went to see him at his new home one day and at that time, he still remembered us =]

Panda, on the other hand, can be found running around the compound of my house all day, everyday...

wakakakakakakakakakakakaka...

She used to have blue eyes, but they changed colour =(

They are now brown...

Grizzly. Ain't he cute?

I want to tidur also you must kacau me ar?

Huh? Wh... what? Oh, good morning *yawn*

What? You wanna take a picture? Go right ahead *poses*

Panda, shy and hiding under the car (notice her blue eyes?)

A slightly bigger Panda

Awwww, isn't she just so grown up and lady-like?
(The flower actually dropped there on it's own while Panda was snoozing)

Next up, the spoilt Shih Tzu:
Yes? Anything you want? You don't just call the princess for nothing, you know!!!

We were both so young >.<

Hey there!!! I'm Taffy!!!

Taffy is the queen at home...

She really is!!! (It's scary, as she's a Shih Tzu and is supposed to be a play dog)

I found out that every time she is let out, all the other dogs will stay away from her...

If I'm playing with her, no other dogs would come near me...

Even the dog that I thought was the most fearless among the dogs hides at the corner near her "house" when Taffy is running around...

mwahahahahahahahahahahaha...

She's like cili padi...

Small but powerful...

hahahahahaha =P

Niko carrying Taff-Taff

Myself and Taff-taff

Oh, we once celebrated her birthday too!!!

After this long post, I only one to say that dogs are really cool...

Other animals are, too!!!

However, if you're not gonna take care of your pets properly, don't even bother getting one...

Having said that, I'm gonna spend more time with the dogs I have (now 4 gorgeous ones) and love and cherish them...

wakakakakakakakakakakakakakakaka...

I'm glad my whole family are animal-lovers...

I guess I inherited it =]

mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...





Buh-bye, people!!!
