Pity Kitty?

Yong-sama doesn't like beggars. Period.

It's quite a common sight in Malaysia, don't you think? Just visit the weekly pasar malam, or even on the pedestrian bridges in KL, and you'll spot them straight on sitting on make-shift newspapers mats, usually with a cup in their hands, waiting for kind strangers to drop some change into their hands. But look closer, most of them are actually able-bodied humans that for some reason refuse to work and chose to beg instead. Some may have lost a limb or two, but that doesn't make it impossible to find work right? Some even bring their small children along to their "job", maybe hoping that after seeing the poor condition of the kids people may have more sympathy instead.

Some people might say we shouldn't hate, but pity them instead. But seriously, I just can't find any sympathy in my heart for people like these who chose the easier way out instead. I simply detest those who doesn't have the tiniest bit of motivation to make their lives a little better. Even a little effort is better than none, isn't it? I guess it's just my nature.

Well anyway, I'm not interested in blogging about human beggars. However, I do think that animals can be so cute when they beg. (Yes, call me bias or a hypocrite or whatever, I don't care)

I was at the mamak Bistro in SS14 just a few days ago, having my tea-break with my dad and brother, who was about to dig into his second tosai for the day, when some little fella sauntered over to our table like it was the king of the world and started to beg for food.

Zern-boy enjoying tosai numero 2...


Mmmm... Zern-boy liiiiike...


All hail the Pro Kitty Beggar. This little kitty used certain "dirty" tricks to obtain food. First, it would come right up to your chair, plant its butt on the floor and stare up at you with big-cute-please-pity-me-kitty eyes, and giving a little meow now and then to capture your attention. And if it's victim still does not yield to its glamorous charm, little kitty contemplates using Plan B instead. It then raises a paw and places in on your chair leg, meowing a little louder this time. If Plan B still doesn't work, little kitty then goes for the extreme and places its little paw on its victim's lap instead.

Well at this point the victim would have two options:
1. To be extremely cruel and push little kitty away while yelling at it.
OR
2. To give in to little kitty and throw down a little treat or two.

Since I'm not the type of person who'd catch and boil kitties who trespass into my lawn in hot oil, I chose to do option number 2 and throw little kitty a few pieces of ikan bilis from my nasi lemak instead. Which wasn't a really good idea because little kitty kept coming back for more. Well, at least until my ikan bilis ran out that is.

Yea, and what'CHOO starin' at?

都の中のテディー 「Teddies in the City (Miyako)」

昔々、ある都の中に、あるテディーたちがいました。
ある日には、テディーたちはお腹がすごく空いてなってきました。
その後は、何が起こったは、ついに伝説になりました。。。


A long long time ago, there lived a bunch of teddies in a city.
One fine day, the teddies suddenly became really really hungry.
And whatever happened thereafter, became a legend to live long in the hearts of all...
(Oh man the English translation sounds so lame... LOL)


















This post is dedicated to the soon-to-be birthday boys Mr. Tan and Mr. Foo. May the age of 19 bring you joy, fun and a whole new sense of responsibility. Happy Be-early B'day boys!
This post is also dedicated to all those teddies studying overseas, as a little note of reminder that you still have friends who cares and are awaiting your return back here in Malaysia. Love you teddies~

Graduation 2007

Ah yes, this is Yong-sama's one day Harry Potter cosplay stint playing a random student from Hogwarts. Yea, GO Slitherin! Yea, right, 'sif.

Well, actually it was just Graduation Day for us successful students of CAT and ACCA from the July 2007 graduates batch. But only up until now did I realize how fun it was donning a robe and walking about with our fake scrolls (I'm serious, the scrolls are fake, they're just blank paper rolled up nicely and tied with a ribbon). There's nothing much to say about the event actually, so enjoy the pictures. XD

My bunch of bApakZ bAbiZ I hang out with in college. We can be all serious and what not at certain moments, but most of the time......

...... we are just a bunch of insane girls caught up in the crazy and typhoon/tornado striken path of the ACCA nightmare. Right, my expression at that time was supposed to be "I'm cooler than all of you bleh =p"... somehow I just don't look the part. Lol

Ms. Rozi and us. She's our tax lecturer, she's cute and she rocks. XD Yay, we love you Ms. Rozi!


Poor Ai Cheng thinks she's a butterfly. I don't blame her though, not when Graduation Day came just a few days before our 2nd killer progress test. Tsk, told you we're nuts.

Charmaine and I. Yea, this childhood friend of mine actually did her whole course (CAT and ACCA) in a span of just two and a half years. *Chun-nya >.< I want that mortar board thingy too!* (PS. Look who my friend managed to capture in the background *grins widely*)

Wui Li and me. Look-lah, boss in his ultimate boss-ness. Guys should put on suits more often, it's definite that you would look good in them. XD

That's all folks. *sends a flying kiss with a wink* Man, I'm so full of myself. XD
