The Dead Dog

This morning, I looked out of the porch window to see a dog lying down near the wall. The dog had a light blue collar. It used to belong to someone but now it is skinny, dirty and sick. Who would own a dog like that?

Me: Shoo. Shoo dog shoo...

The dog got up and limped towards the window.

Me: No... Shoo! Go.

The dog limped nearer. I went to another window and stared at it for awhile, thinking how pitiful the dog looked. I thought of giving it something but I was scared that it will come back again looking for more.

I went back to my own room and went online. Half an hour after that, Ali came and told me there's a dead dog in front of the house.

Impossible! Not the same dog, surely?

I went to look and the body was covered with a piece of newspaper. I was in denial. I went out to see if it really was dead.

The body was still. It wasn't breathing. The empty eyes stared at nothing.

Tears flowed. The dog I saw was actually dying... I was the last person to see it alive.

I called the Miri City Council to take the body away.

I'm beginning to think that Miri has a lot of heartless pet owners.

Shame that Miri called itself a city and yet it doesn't have animal shelters like the SPCA or PAWS. Animals rights are forgotten. Nobody cares.

Have MERCY



Millions of people in China and Myanmar are homeless due to natural disasters. Have you asked yourself what you can do to help?

If a student like me can donate, so can the rest of you. There are many ways to donate to the victims of these natural disasters. I donated through Maybank2u.com which will go to MERCY Malaysia.

When you go to sleep at night, think how lucky you are to actually have a roof to protect you against the environment and to have your family safe with you under one roof.

Please help.

Most girls know that what comes out of our mouth is not usually what it literally means. It's all about signs and body language. Something a man can never really notice or understand...

Kittens Part 2

We gave the 3 kittens to our friend. He has a mother cat who already has 4 kittens of her own. Thankfully, she accepted the stray kittens as her own.

However, one of the kittens died yesterday. We predicted that but it still makes me sad. It was the smallest one. The one who hasn't even opened its eyes yet. I didn't think it had the will to live...

At least the other 2 are doing quite well. The mother cat and her kittens have accepted the 2 adopted kittens as their own family. It's the sweetest thing.

I promised pictures but the pictures that I took with my phone is stretched like crazy. I don't know why or how to fix it. O well.

Kittens!

This morning, as I came back from buying newspaper, I heard meowing of a very small kitten. It was somewhere around our driveway. I tried to look for it but I couldn't locate it.

Half an hour ago, Johan saw 3 kittens in a box underneath our driveway. Yes. In the drain.

They were drenched, cold and hungry. One hasn't even opened its eyes yet.

Who can be so HEARTLESS?? If you have a cat/dog, take responsibility. Don't let it breed around if you won't take care of the kittens/puppies or couldn't find people who wants them. That's just irresponsible! Neuter or spay it! It's a once in a lifetime procedure and it will actually make your pet live longer and healthier.

Click here for more info on spaying or neutering.

Renee cleaned them while I try to keep them warm. I'm sure Bagheera (my black cat) won't miss his towel much. I made cat milk and Hassan fed them.

I'm not sure if any would survive. I called my vet in Kuching and she told me to keep them warm and feed them 5 times a day. "If they survive, you are very lucky. If they don't... don't put yourself down." It's hard to take care of these young ones without their mother.

I'll upload pictures of them later.

Iron Man the movie


Just got back from watching Iron Man with Ali, Max, Fitria, Johan, Renee, Hassan and Abe.

The movie was AWESOME. You know how action movies are ruined by fluffy romance? This one is (almost) pure action all the way.

It is funny at all the right parts. No added drama and useless scenes. The storyline flows well.

What I like about Iron Man/Tony Stark is how human he is. He's not an alien from outer space who wears his underpants on the outside. He wasn't bitten by some freak spider. Nor did he get affected from toxic waste/radiation/and whatever crap.

Iron Man is a normal human being who used his intelligence to create amazing technologies.

I was surprised that the actor who played Tony Stark/Iron Man is not friggin-hot or model-esque. He is a 40+ years old man. But his character is a lovable one. He is sarcastic, funny, smart, rich etc.

I don't know about you guys, but this beats Spiderman (the movies).

Definitely.

New skin

I like this one. Simple and clean. Still needs a lot of work though. Links, pics etc. But I can't be arsed to change the font colour. Too much work. Just ctrl+a if you're determine reading the old posts.

Tell me what you think of my new skin.

So...

Haven't been blogging in almost 2 years. I don't know why I decided to come back. I just feel the need to write again.
