R.I.P Biggie

He stopped eating since 4 days ago....

His body begun to 'move' by itself since 4 days ago...

He couldn't properly walk the way he used to be since a week ago...

He could barely stand since 4 days ago.....

He couldn't walked since 2 days ago...

He was a very stubborn dog....

He was once missing for almost a month...

He was the last clan of Tankerina (mother)...

He was loved by everyone...

He will always be in our heart...

He just got his citizenship 8 days ago...

His tag is with me as a key-chain....

I'm off today and I took the chance to bring him to a vet...at first I was just planning to get a medicine to put him to sleep for good but the vet couldn't do that and I have to bring to the vet (of course with a cost)

Biggie waiting for his farewell journey...he even looked at me at this time when I 'sayang-sayang' him as if he could sense it was his moment...

I cleaned him once I've returned from vet...I vomit several times whilst cleaning his body due to his own poop and urine all over his body...I then realized how worst his condition was...blood coming through his skin...couple of bruises all over his body (lack of nutrients due to not eating)...I almost cry seeing him like that....

Finally at about 5:32pm, 18 Nov 2009...Biggie was put to sleep forever...I witnessed the whole procedures and wished him goodbye before the vet injected him with a high dose of...(I couldn't remember what it was called) and he slowly stopped from moving....I took him home (usually the body will be dealt by SPCA - burn to ash but I said I will bury him myself) it was hard to bury him after 4 years being with us...according to the vet, he was infected with a major virus among dogs around the world (major killer)...Biggie condition at that moment was semi conscious according to the vet..even if the virus were cleaned his body will not be strong as he used to be...moreover his body has been damaged due to the virus...the vet advised me to clean his place with an anti-bacteria detergen as the virus is quite contagious to any dogs...I did with detol...Biggie is now resting at the backyard of the house with Hairy.....

After he was bathed prior taking him to vet and this was how the virus had affected his body

I might have not spent so much time with you but I always cared and loved you very much as if you were my own son...

You'll be remembered...RIP Biggie, 31 Jul 2005 - 18 Nov 2009

I’m no immigrants

Hell yeah!! I think that’s what Biggie and Husky were saying in their heart…

Finally after 3 attempts (4 actually)…I managed to get their citizenship..haha…

I went to the Penang Municipal with high hope of getting it done but the lady at the counter told me to show proof of mailing address….I’ve never ever been informed about this so I drove back home to take my recent Maxis bill then went back there…thankfully the traffic wasn’t bad but it was raining...4th attempt and it was successful…

It was quite fast actually...I gave the form along with my IC and Maxis bill and proceed to make payment at the other counter…RM10 per dog then went back to the other counter where I was given the dog tags (E06540 and E06541) and that was it…done!!

I’m quite happy for both Biggie and Husky...now they don’t have to feel ashamed of being immigrants (kalau dorang pandai malu la…) most importantly they are officially Malaysian citizen…haha...

This month is Husky’s 1 year anniversary with us…I celebrated his anniversary yesterday by buying him a KFC Dinner Plate (purposely for him only) and home cooked dishes (shared with Biggie of course)

Hope they live happily ever after…even sometimes bikin gerigitan…haha..

Weekend Relaxation

Hi chaps...it's been a week since the last update huh..

I'm feeling good this week (always been though) as I have 4 days of 'weekend' starting Fri-Mon...you know why and I don't have to explain how I got it...

Nothing much to pen down at this moment...been busy catching up few movies (DVDs) I added few more into my collection yesterday noon....I woke up early to drop my friend at the airport at 9am then returned home...watched movie then went out to check out a Penang-Langkawi ferry service at town...then made a second attempt to apply for dog licenses at the Penang Municipal but I was late (closed at 12:15pm - will go next Monday la) I then drove home...

Arrived at home...I continued my DVD marathon...watched 4 DVDs...hehe..

Again, I was thinking of visiting my ex-colleague who opens a Nasi Lemak+Satay stall nearby but decided not as it was still raining..spent time with Husky..he happens to be my drinking buddy last night..haha.. sikit saja la..nanti mabuk entah apa lagi dia buat...he was barking at this one little tiny mice hiding behind the septic pipe at the backyard and I could hear a 'crying' sound came from the mice...so I decided to help the scared mice by taking Husky into the house...the backyard is now his new home although at first I put him there to punish him for his attitude months ago but now he seems better and comfortable there....He's so big and tough now yet horny as horse..haha..

Husky waiting kena bagi makanan

Earlier today I watched 2 of my other new DVDs but they both weren't good...1 couldn't play at all and the other was stuck half way..I decided to replace them but I ended up buying few more DVDs...then saw these few Blue Ray DVD....asked and confirmed with the 'guys' there that I could play these DVDs on normal DVD player....yes so I bought 3 of them with the price of RM25 after discount...returned home and tried one of the Blue Ray DVDs...awesome!!! I tried the other 2 and they were awesome!!! Audio+Visual+Subtitle+Features=Awesome!! a converted Blue Ray DVD movie cost about RM10 each but it sure hell worth buying....this is going to be my new baby in future...hehe...I could get about 12 Blue Ray movies off RM100!!! whereas I could get 25 dual layer DVD with the same amount of money...I can see the difference between them in term of cost and quality..hehe...a big smile...

Husky bersantai

I really have nothing much to do during these few days than resting so...you won't be surprise reading my FB's status "DVD marathon..."I just love hanging out at home watching movies...today a little special though..I bought the KFC Variety Meals (6 pieces chicken+4 hot rods+2 mash potatos+1 wedges) as a food supply..hehe..

Alright chaps..hope you had a great weekend and enjoy! I'm off for another DVD..hehe...

1Malaysia???

This is a story of a man named Wel....a charming person :) and always calm until it explodes...

I was at the Penang Municipal yesterday afternoon to query about getting dog licenses (Husky and Biggy)..we never had one since Tankerina and it always make me worry whenever we let them out..who lets the dog out pula nanti persoalan dia...

I took the first step yesterday instead of wondering and worrying...I left home an hour earlier than I would usually do and drove straight to Penang Municipal..well, I did call my friend asking where can I apply for dog license in Penang before that though....

I arrived at the Penang Municipal, it was already 13:35...walked straight into the office towards the counter and I saw a tray with a signage "Dog License"...without hesitation, I took a piece of the form and read through its contents...applicable for only RM10 per annum and for dog over 3 months old...then came a Malay lady who asked me if I wanted to apply for dog license - Yes, I answered politely and smiled at her....she replied asking me to fill up the form and wait until 14:00 when the office resumes work...I noded and smiled at her again...she left the counter and I continued what I was doing earlier (read the form)

On the right hand side of that counter is a small partition of another counter and there was a Chinese lady who was leisurely sitting and enjoying her kuaci...I took 3 forms and walked to wards her counter then asked how to fill the form as it has 2 sections (top and bottom) with almost the same details and I was trying to get a confirmation if I were required to fill in details in both sections - Yes she replied. Then she began the interrogation...she asked me if I were Malay (I'm not Malay), asked if my religion were Islam (I'm Christian), asked if I were staying in an apartment or land house (Land-house)....she stopped asking then reminded me of Islam couldn't apply for dog license and will never be granted on any attempt...I reminded her I'm Christian again at this point yet I began to fell uneasy of her remarks at this time....she then asked me from where..I told her that I'm Sabahan....she was a little unsure and made a follow up question by asking me what am I doing in Penang, working?Study?...I replied to her politely, I work here in Penang...I was suprised when she replied me..oh, study....but I just keep it to myself...I then asked her if I need to prepare anything like copy of I.C along with the form...instead of replying to my question, she asked me if I have I.C?????? (Yes I have) another stupid question from her was...IC Malaysia?????? (Yes) and she asked if she could check my I.C...

I wished I could give her a brain wash at this time but Wel is a very calm man..and always be..hehe...I took out my I.C and showed it to her and smiled....with us in that room were 2 makcik and 1 pakcik..I noticed they were watching and listening to our converstation....she then asked where I stay in Penang (Sg. Dua nearby USM campus) then she guessed it correctly by saying I'm renting with other Sabahan...then she asked what I do in Penang...AGAIN??? This time I told her I studied in USM and is now working in Penang....whilst having a stupid conversation with her, I was texting with Jew at the same time (cerita pasal kebuduhan ni perempuan and lesen anjing) Suddenly she asked if I go to pray???What does it has to do with applying for dog license??? (Yes, I'm Christian; walau setahun sekali saja kali pigi church) Then I got the show stopper when she said...I thought Islam cannot have dog.....then another follow up question about Sabahan Malay...I told her in brief there's no Malay in Sabah..we are Bumiputras; KadazanDusun..there have plenty more like Bajau and Murut but there's no Malay in Sabah....once I've said that to her..I decided to end the conversation by saying I will come back later this afternoon when the office has resumed work....she sempat lagi check if I fill up the form correctly (I only fill up the house address) then she kind of reprimanded me and asked why I didn't fill up my name etc...I told her I will fill them up later before coming back this afternoon...before leaving, I smiled at her and thanked her for her "kindness"...

I think, she was just trying to do her job as counter girl...being helpful and being fussy perhaps...I left the office and smiled at the others in the room who were captured into our conversation....

Are we Sabahan ever think of Peninsular as an outsider?? As if Sabah is Malaysia and Peninsular isn't part of Malaysia??

This is utterly bullshit...Do we need to have more adverts on TV (and every where along the road) to show people all over Malaysia that Singapore (now out)+Sabah+Sarawak+Peninsular=Malaysia since 16 September 1963 (postponed from 31 August 1963 due to objection from Philippines and Indonesia)

*Sabah attained self-government on 31 August 1963
