My Xmas Present

I am so happy to get my X'mas present from my dear! Is this pretty? We called her "Sam" - which is Samantha. Wanna guess how we get this nice name? Hehe... Because we have watched the movie "I am Legend" and the GS doggie looks so beautiful with her name - Sam!!

Coco is so happy to have her as his friend!

The breeze of pearl~

That's the direct translation for the place Fei, Coco and I gonna move in next year.

Been quite busy lately with the appointments with the contractors on our rennovation ideas and budget. With all the money we got, and with all the things we're trying to fix/change in our new house, I think the rennovation will come with a handsome price. Sigh..INTC keeps dropping, USD to RM exchange rate keep decreasing, damn..i'm losing money everyday!!

In the foreseeable future, there will be some significant changes in our lifestyle, or should I say, our daily routine.

First, I would need to get up early on working days, because I need to commute 20km to my office via Penang Bridge. If Fei needs to work offsite, then I'll need to ride my bike to work. Not that I don't like riding bike to work, in fact, I love biking...but things will turn messy when it's rainy. On the bright side, it consume less petrol, less time and less bridge tol's fee. Ideally I should get a new car(or a 2nd hand one), so that I could prevent soaking wet when I reach office, but seeing the petrol price and the traffic jam on the bridge, I don't think that's a good idea. A new bike would be a better option, since my old buddy(Mordenas Kriss, 10 years-old already) should retire anytime soon.

Secondly, Jit Sin High School, where I spent my high school years, is just 5 minutes away. I have a gang of regular basketball mates playing at the familiar basketball court 3 times a week. Definitely I'm getting healthier with all the regular basketball session. Furthermore, the alumni asoc. recently sponsored a rooftop for the court. I'm going to pick-up my love towards basketball again.

Third, Coco's going to have his daily walk at the taman. YES, DAILY!! So that he could socialize with his new dog neighbours, and pee at the lamp post/road sign post/wall/tree everytime he walks by.

Fourth, we plan to install Astro. So that I won't miss all the NBA matches, and all the TVB dramas.

Fifth, hopefully, we will have enough money to have a bathtub, and a comfy movie room and a comprehensive walk-in wordrobe, and a large piece of furry carpet, and a full set of baking accesories in the kitchen, a big screen LCD TV, a 2-door fridge, a nice dining table for 6, a L-shape leather sofa, a modern+sophisticated auto gate, a complete alarm system+CCTV, 5 air-condition system..... I hope I'm a millionaire's son...

Lucas came over to visit Coco very often, he even stayed overnight with us...which was fun!!

Photos...

Kinda busy since I came back from Folsom a month+ ago... I'm going to post some pictures over here, so that I won't just leave them in "My Picture" folder forever.

Yeah right..it's not NBA match, it's just WNBA...but hey...I was at NBA stadium anyway!!

This dude brought me makan angin with his Toyota Convertible. Thanks to him, i know how to get to the Chinese restaurant to eat duck rice(Yes, I went there every week)

Foggy bridge

My favourite dinner, beat McD's Big Mac anytime. (Have it for my birthday over there)

Dog hunting contest? What the h***!!

I felt very sick after seeing the online publication of the most idiotic contest, and it's not anywhere else, it's right here...our bolehland!!

Whoever is running this "Majlis Perbandaran Selayang", wow..I'm amazed by the way you guys think...or rather thinking without using your brain.

Well, the contest is simple, you have to catch as much "stray dogs" as you can, the winner will walk away with RM15000, second place still gets RM13000, third place RM11000.

It's not because I'm a dog lover myself, that I get so upset about this contest, I'm wondering if this is the correct way of handling the issue. If you spend that much money to give away to contest winners, why not spend it to spay and neuter those poor creatures, and what's the use of SPCA? Come on, just because dogs are considered "foul" creature in the aspect of Islam, it should be treated fairly, at least treated as cats are being treated in this country, right? Don't tell me there are no stray cats around Selayang.

Wow, I can just go dog hunting all day, If I'm trying to win this contest. Hmm...If there are no more stray dogs to catch, why not I try to steal those dogs with dog tags, the Majlis Perbandaran won't know it's not a stray dog if the tags are taken off. This is actually a good business, and guess what, Selayang will be a dog-free place, isn't that a nice place to live in?

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be measured by the way in which its animals are treated”. — Mahatma Gandhi.

Well...happy 50th Merdeka everyone, yes...Malaysia is 50 years old now, I can see where we are heading for the next 50 years.

Go here and here to look for yourself.
