Updates on Willie

Yeah, haven't been updating about Willie since he got back from Ipoh. I have both good and bad news about this pet of mine.

Good news first.

He is huge! GEMOK! I was surprised when first saw him at the moment Moodey's sister wanted to hand him to me. Muka dah kembang, and badan, of course dan besar. Bapak Moodey bagi makan ikan rebus. Gembira je dia kat Ipoh tu, siap boleh main2 kat luar rumah etc. Kat Cyberia, kena duk dalam rumah je, mesti dia boring giler. After a few days baru lah found out Willie makan 4 ekor ikan rebus sehari. Patut lah berat dan gemok!! Heh, tengs Moodey and family for gemukkan Willie.
Willie di Ipoh.. I like this pic.. so cute! :)

And now I think he's growing gemok and gemokker. I don't give him ikan rebus sgt, instead I give him ayam rebus. Huhu, lebih banyak protein katanya. Ok whatever, still give him his Science Plan, but sometimes especially malam2 la bg ayam rebus. Huhu. Ikan rebus bagi as a treat je kekadang. Willie's crazy for both chicken and fish. Masa nak prepare ikan rebus/ ayam rebus, melompat2 dia dan ada beberapa percubaan hendak memanjat badanku ini. Huhu. Sib baik pakai jeans time tuh, kalu pakai kaftan mahu terkoyak lerr baju ku.

Ekor yang agak patah tak nmpk sgt dah.. huhu..


look at that body!


Willie now sleeps with me in my bedroom. Dulu2, tak bagi, sebab takut dia buat hal, tapi since I decided to put his litter box in my toilet, terpaksa lah kasi bukak itu pintu bilik. He loves to sleep at the window beside my bed. Sometimes caught him staring at me while I'm about to sleep. Haha so cute! However, he loves to wake us (me and Fateha. yes Fateha stays with me at the mo) up at 5 am in the morning EVERYDAY. Huhu. Too early for us, so everytime when he woke us up, we would kick him out of the room and closed the door ( the door was left slightly open most of the time). Pukul 7 baru bagi masuk balik sebab takut dia nak terkucil. I realized that there were some leftovers of food in his bowl throughout the night, and when I came out at the morning, the bowl is empty, so he surely went out and eat at 5 am tuh, but then, at 7 am, he still craves for more food. OMG makan banyak nye kucing ni! Ekceli dia boleh je kuar sepanjang malam kalau lapar, tapi saje je nak kacau kami yang tengah tido kul 5 pagi, pastu manja2 pulak. When I petted him makin menjadi2 lak manja dia plus meowing yang manja lagi. Huhu. Bila dia start kacau Fateha, Fateha trus bangun and suruh Willie keluar. I did the kick out thingy sometimes jer sebab kekadang tu malas nak bangun. Haha.



Willie has also made a few attempt to escape through the door, especially when he heard the keys when we were about to go out and kalau ada bunyi orang balik baru nak bukak grill. Laju je dia menanti orang kat depan pintu. Ekceli dia just nak jalan2 kat luar je, boring kot tapi that made us worried, even if he knows the way back, takut kena curi je huhu. So I bought a leash and harnett. I did brought him jalan2 once. He was okay, but a bit hard to train, well the first time what do you expect. Tapi, 2 days later, Kak Ely my housemate ada nak bawak dia jalan2 siang hari, dia takut pulak, tak paham la ini kucing.


I pity him ekceli, he seemed so bored staying in this condo. Dahlah memang takde harapan lah pulak nak bawak balik PJ dah. Hurm hurm. So that's the bad news.

Bad news.

I am thinking of giving Willie away pulak. I know, it's cruel. Dah amik pastu nak bagi kat orang pulak. It's just that, I cant see any future with Willie anymore. I don't know how to bring him back once I graduated. Now am searching for the right candidate to be Willie's new master. Huhu, perlulah orang yg rumah di atas tanah, so that he can go out at times enjoying the outdoor moment. Yes, I can't bring him home to PJ, coz Mak telah membuat satu pernyataan baru-baru ini, tentang membela haiwan di dalam rumah. Atfirst I thought I wanna gamble and bring him back, but then there is something Mak said, and I think I know the answer already. Well I havent tell her directly about me having a kitten, but haish.. Entahlah, I've been thinking for nearly a month already now, about to let go or not to let go. Sayang sangat.. but then, things will be much tougher day by day. Siap mimpi2 dah ni nak bagitahu parents, tapi.. Susahnyee..

Look at me. How could she??

Musang

Malas nak update blog dah sekarang ni. Apsal tah. Anyways I've encountered an interesting topic to be shared in this blog like right now.

Musang. When I first heard musang, those words are translated in my brain to the face of a fox(like firefox), oranged in colour. Yeah coz I guess when I was little we had this game and song called musang dan ayam, peribahasa musang berbulu ayam, and then we also had this red riding hood tale and the translation of the fox is a musang. Iyalah, fox ape tah dalam bahasa melayu, musang lah kan?

So then I grew up having musang as fox in my brain's memory. They are big, like the size of a dog, or maybe human (from the red riding hood story). So that's my interpretation of a musang.

Few years back, one day, when I went back to my kampung, my uncle said he caught a baby musang. Can't remember where he got it, but they made the musang as a pet. I was like, wah, boleh bela ke musang ni? Tak makan orang ker? HAHA. Bukan karnivor ker? Then they told me this and that, that this musang is the kind that eats fruits. I was like, wahh musang makan buah pulak? Isk, pelik. I went to see it myself, and wahh comelnyaaa anak musang ni. Macam ni rupa musang rupanya. Colour macam raccoon. Ni bukan fox. So then I was confused with the meaning of musang, is it a fox or a civet. Yes, this musang they were talking about is a civet. Very cute I tell you.

Actually, in between the story before I got to see the musang at my kampung, back at my PJ house, many years ago juga, kami terjumpa beberapa tompok najis haiwan di kawasan washing machine. Ayah pun cakaplah, tu tahi musang. Ok, at that point of time, my interpretation of musang is still the orange fox. Tapi pelik lah jugak, najis itu, berwarna merah pink2, Ayah cakap tu sebab diorg makan buah. Hah, seperti reaksi di atas, musang makan buah ker? Isk, pelik pelik. Pastu pulak Ayah pun cakap, musang yang ni kecil je, saiz macam kucing. Wahh, macam kucing pulak size nye? Mesti kiut! Hoho, pelik kuasa sepuluh dah.

I never got a chance to see the real musang then. At first I was like wahhh, kat celah2 PJ ni pon ada musang ker? Dari Bukit Gasing la kot. Iyalah kawasan PJ rumah saya ni macam2 haiwan boleh jumpa. Aritu, ada monyet lah, yang ni confirm dari Bukit Gasing sesat sampai kat area rumah saya. Pastu aritu pun, ada ayam lah datang kat rumah kitorg. Hurm, hurm, macam kat kampung2 je pulak. Haha. Tapi musang bukan ker macam haiwan dalam hutan ker? Apsal leh sesat sampai kat rumah2 orang pulak ni?

I've never seen any musang at PJ house, but I know they existed from their poops and the noise they made at night at times. After soo many years, then only at one night, while I was driving and nearing my home at night, the first time ever after living in that area since 1992, I saw a cat-like figure, walking on the telephone lines, gracefully. Of course it can't be a cat, it looked a bit different, and what for kucing nak jalan atas wayar telefon kot? Jalan atas jalan raya sudeyh. Tak stabil kot kucing jalan atas wayar. I've already got my driving license at that time so the timeline is like in the past 5 years. Wah first time aku melihat seekor musang secara life! Yes this is a civet. But couldn't actually see the actualy colour though. Actually after that night lah, I went to google the real meaning of musang, and what kind of musang that I saw that night, coz it can't be a fox, and then only I actually know it's real name in English -Asian Palm Civet.

Then again, a few weeks ago, I got to see the civet again. This time siap tegur. Heh, it was late night, and I arrived home late, tak ingat dari mana, tapi rasanya lepas lepak2 bersama rakan2 kot. Not that late lah, around 11 pm camtu jer, but then pintu depan dah kunci yang takbleh nak masuk, and everyone's asleep dah pulak, maka saya pun berjalan lah kebelakang rumah, nak ketuk tingkap bilik Abe, sebab dia sorang je yang wujud kat tingkat bawah. Tapi sempat la pulak jalan sampai ke dapur, sebab nak intai jugak lampu dapur terbuka ke tak, coz kekadang Abe lepak kat dapur. Then masa tu lah nampak civet tu rilek jer berjalan atas bumbung rumah kat atas dapur tu. Lepas tegur, dia berhenti dan pandang jer, pastu tibe2 takut pulak, mane tahu dia pegi attack ker, macam monyet2 terdahulu buat, haha. Yes, monyet tu lagi la, orang tak tegur ape pun, tak perasan pun kewujudan dia atas pokok manggis tu, tibe nak attack orang. Huh. Eh lari topik.

Eh panjang la pulak entry pasal musang jer. Sebenarnya tiba2 nak menulis pasal musang ni sebab sekarang ni, atas siling bilik saya dan mendengar bunyi2an, dulu2 selalu jugak la dengar bunyi bising2. Dah lama dah takde, tapi harini tibe2 kembali pulak beraksi. Petang tadi Ayah dan Abe buat operasi tutup rongga-rongga kecil kat atas bumbung rumah yang memberikan kebarangkalian untuk musang masuk ke atas siling. Agaknya mereka dah stuck kot tu yang bising tuh. Huhu, esok Ayah cakap nak bukak balik lubang tu bagi mereka keluar. Ha, pastu pulak tadi Ayah naik atas bumbung, nampak banyak sangat tahi2 musang ni. Cis, bersarang pulak kamu ye.

Now I am suspicious with these civets coz a few minutes ago I kinda heard something else, like baby civets!!! OMG, you're not having family here as well!

By the way, here's the picture of civetss




Owh ya, one random thing I saw while googling about civet, like just recently. In Indonesia, musang/civet is called luwak. Menariknya, diorang ada kopi yang dinamakan Kopi Luwak. Ok la copy paste dari wikipedia jer, kalu nak tahu kopi luwak tu ape,

Kopi Luwak is coffee that is prepared using coffee cherries that have been eaten by the animal, partially digested, and harvested from its feces.

Ew, amik dari tahi musang biji separa hadam dan dibuat kopi. Haha, ok people kalu jumpa kopi luwak fikirlah nak minum ke tak. Uhuhu. Kopi tu antara kopi paling mahal rupanya. Erkss.

Britain's Got Talent

Britain's Got Talent, yeah, never actually watched it before, but Abe was so excited telling me last weekend while we were in Jerantut, who the winner for the latest season was. I was like, I dont give a damn, huhu, coz I knew nothing about that. I know I've been watching a lot of youtube's videos but never came across one of 'the most watched videos' as told by Abe.

Anyways, since Abe was very much excited telling me about this and that, and that I didn't really understand what he was talking about, and since I am like about 1/3 of the day youtubing everyday, tergerak la hati to search about Britain's Got Talent today.

Basically I am on Youtube to watch sketches, videos of animals, basically those which are not broadcasted on TV. It's interesting to watch other people do their own drama and people actually can become famous and make money by just posting their videos on Youtube, and they are called Youtube celebrity. See, now we are not just limited with Hollywood celebrity! I have even subscribed to some of those most subscribed in Youtube like nigahiga, smosh (I personally love their videos!), kevjumba, happyslip etc etc. I didn't subscribe to Fred who happen to be the one with most subscribers coz I kinda find his videos annoying, but I did watch his videos from time to time. Eh, why am I blabbering about Youtube celebrity pulak ni. 

Ok ok back to Britain's Got Talent, yea so I actually wiki the info first and then only I watch the winner, Diversity's video, and then the 2nd runner up which was Susan Boyle. Man I am so impressed with her, not during the final though coz we know finals are left with those best among the best. At first I was like okay, a lady with a great voice, but everything changed when I re-read Susan's article in wikipedia, and then I watched the audition video of her. I can't post the video here though coz most of them has disabled embedding. 

Anyways, it's funny to see everyone's faces when she first came to the stage, and then, when she said she wanted to become a profesional singer, some rolled their eyes whatnot. But then, once she started singing, everyone started standing, clapping, cheering and all. I just love to see everyone's expression. I know people tends to judge a book by its cover, but who knows a lady of 47 years of age, with 'that' kind of appearance, has such lovely voice? I actually was brought to tears when I watch her audition video, especially the judges' expressions. Haha. Impressively shocking!

Missing Willie

Willie's now safe in Ipoh, at Moodey's home sweet home. She's gonna take care of Willie during the trimester break. Hurm, I think I shall start telling my parents about Willie. Haha! After all, am gonna finish school soon, and I would probably have to bring my kitten back home right?

Am thinking of building a cat's house back at PJ home, if my parents would not let the kitten to roam that freely inside the house. Well, we'll see. Willie hated being caged in his not so big cage, so I guess I have to build a bigger home! My father once build a small chicken's home few years back, and now that those chickens are no longer surviving after being attacked by dogs and cats (yes really!), I might be able to modify that house. Haha, macam rajin jer, but will try, after all there's another 4 months! Kalau nak beli mahai sangat!

Wonder what Sabrina and kids (the stray cat and kitten) might think. Kalau la bleh pegang mereka memang masuk sekali je dalam jagaan but then they're too scared and angry. Sabrina was once very tame and manja, but once, she went missing, and we thought she might have died, and then she came back, but as an angry and untamed cat. Hurm, nanti kalu buat rumah khas untuk Willie, and bagi Willie makan sedap-sedap jer, macam unfair eh? Huuu. Camne tah. Aha, dan nanti mesti Ayah marah sebab bagi makan kibbles. Adehh, how lah. Coz I know what they would argue about - money. Huhu, membazir je bagi makan biskut kucing. Ok2 bagi makan ikan rebus jugak, tapi personally I think feeding biscuits is much cheaper kalu beli yang besar terus. Haha, but I've seen Ayah bought ikan murah2 kat pasar just for the stray cats at home. Huhu, hope am gonna get a green light for Willie, and guess I've to change the diet as well, feed with both kibbles and ikan/ayam rebus during his stay at PJ. 

Anyways, now that I am missing Willie, am gonna share a video of Willie I took last week, him playing with his not so new toy. He loves this toy very much, but now the tail is gone, to be exact it was gone yesterday, a few hours before Willie was brought to Ipoh. Owh ya, and the background song is Yuna singing live at 8TV's Quickie.

Are you even a lady??

It's heartbroken to live with those ignorant people. Why do I have to live with those kind of people. I just felt like moving out, but where to? I should be the one kicking people out, but right now, I feel like I need to move out. Huhu.

It's killing me softly day by day now, I know I've already written about this issue in past few entries [ read here (1) and here (2)] , and for sure thing is it will never end. I just wish that this is my final semester, but I have another one left. I don't know how to survive during that whole 4 months, knowing that the ignorant person decided to work here for another 2 years. Arghhh.. this is killing me!!

She might have love to stay here because there would always be a person who handles everything. Arghhh, I'm too tired for being the only person just so u know, especially the cleaning part.

It will always be the same issue again and again and again. I know, sometimes my kitten does the mess as well, but not until those maggots came to life. Gross! At least I do the cleaning up like every day or every other day or once a week depending of what cleaning job that is. But you?? Nadaa!! This is stressing me out!! I have another paper tomorrow morning!! I'm tired for cleaning up other people's mess who never cooperates in anything. If she really does something useful, I might not be this pissed. But all she did was just breaking my heart and increasing my stress level!

She's older than me! Are you even a lady?? I thought you were the eldest in the family? Why are you so ignorant? Why? Why? Why? I always gave some chance coz she's working, but I'm out of chances now coz on those days she's off, she did nothing as well! Locked herself in the roomm and then out to the kitchen, cooked, make some mess, left the garbage for another few days. Ok at least she did her dishes, but cleaning up the area till it shine or at least cleaner is something miracle to see. Huhu. Today, those clean floors in the kitchen and some at the dining area has already been affected with those maggots from this one garbage plastic hanging on the door knob. Oh yeah, the garbage bin went missing and I think I might have accidently thrown it away while throwing the garbage. I was too pissed off I think till I didnt realize I've thrown the garbage together with the bin a few weeks ago.

Damn, so this morning I decided to write a notice. Yeah, I need to act in a different way now. I don't care if she feel offended now. Who cares?? You never care about others, so why should I even care about your reaction now??


Okla, tak habis setadi lg DSP. So damn malas for this one I don't know why.
