Happy Birthday!

Assalamualaikum.

Let all the Aussies celebrate cupid's day while I celebrate my blog's birthday. It's my baby second blogger's anniversary! Yeay!

Life abroad is getting better day by day-as well as colder as summer withdraws. I've already got my Macquarie University hoodie, went to Macquarie Centre for grocery shopping (they call it MqCen and I don't even know if I spelled it right) and prepared things with dear house mates for dinner.

So here are some photo updates,as I've promised. Been busy adjusting my biological clock with the local current! It's getting on its way now, good thing it is. Dawn here looks like morning, I mean when we wake up a 6.30 it looks as if it's already 7 in the morning. Weather's unpredictable but as far as weather forecast is concerned-rainy days are expected to be common for this week, at the very least. Now scroll down for piccas yeah,

The cohort together for pre-flight briefing. Blurred because of, well, we were rushing.

Some of my friends.

Me (left) and my seat neighbour Wewe Meows. ;)

Supper. They call this supper??! I call it dinner and beyond expectation! Yummm

Wewe. If you come across her without a camera you probably have seen someone else instead.

Shap. Going fine after a little while, first-time-boarding:just like ME!

Ah, this one's perfect. Dinner for two,me and Leo.

This, my friend; this. Is SOMETHING OUT OF THE GALAXYYY... It's sedap. And no other word could describe it.

Hey! It's 11.35 pm back home but it's already past 2 here y'know! And we're talking Sydney tomorrow morning,catchca! Lots of love!

Oh yeah, I'm glad we've made it here, luna-stella! I'm glad that you're around too, reading and supporting! Please wish us luck in our studies, wish me happy 2nd year of blogging and take care! <3

 :)

Leaving,

By the time you read this I have already arrived Sydney. It's my most pleasurable experience to have been given the chance to share my ideas with you and at times; share your ideas too. I love you. Drop by whenever, I'll be uploading photos whenever I'm less busy. Forgive me-but the journey was indeed a tiring yet exciting part of the story. It was my first time, tau! No I didn't puke, me is never an airsick or seasick person! Bwahaha...! <- Chis, berlagak.

Hehe joking. But really, the flight deserves an entry about it. Soon!

Love and love and even more love, from the hummer. Eeek. ;p Take care.

Assalamualaikum!

Salam,

So here you go, a video of the rabbits I posted about in an earlier entry.

A short update now,byes! Gotta shoot to Alamanda.

Animal Violence: Why Don't You Make a Change?

Salam. Andddd, pardon me for my absence. I know that's bad. Been busy packing but I miss you.

Weeks ago I saw a video on Fb. It was a recording of a cat being burned.

I typed it right. BURNED.

The cat was alive when the cruelty took place. I'm writing this down because I want to make myself clear, and I want to share my anxiety with the world. None of us should be in favour of cruelty towards animals.

Out of the zillions of world population, I do not know why on Earth does this act becomes an interest to some of  us, so called humans, obviously known to be the only sophisticated species out of all other species living which posses the ability to reason out their acts. But this particular act reserves not a single relevant motive other than personal pleasure. 

The act of animal violence is not limited to a people outside Malaysia, as seen in the clip. The Malaysian Insider reported a case in Malaysia which got the government's head turning on the issue. In this video, a man repeatedly hit a puppy while ordering it to stand on its hind legs.

"Mentally-unstable or willfully-cruel people get away with cruelty to animals and are indirectly encouraged to continue when authorities are lax in enforcing animal cruelty laws. Filming it and causing a reaction makes them feel confident and glorified. These are the hidden monsters that start with animals and then continue on to children, women and society in general. They must be stopped and brought to justice swiftly. The authorities must send a very strong message---that cruelty to animals is a crime. "

-SPCA Selangor, Malaysia from its official web.

The movement had it well said. The issue of violence itself covers a wide scope of perspective. The issue of animal cruelty is not a petty matter unworthy of the public's attention. Our notion today determines what the world is going to be like tomorrow, for all its inhabitants. Our disregard means encouragement for the criminals and by any means-trust this-it might come to the stage when the crime is unstoppable, affecting not only house pets but the local community as it the criminal gets bolder and braver.






So mates, why don't WE make a change? :)






Spread the love,show that you care. Check out SPCA and WWF Malaysia. There might be more I'm yet to discover and if you find something new or feel this issue urgent,(it is) do spread the message around and share some with me too. Being a volunteer doesn't necessarily mean that you have to register. However if you find it convenient to pay weekend visits to SPCA and help, find out about how you might help-there's a lot you can do-even photographing-if it's one of your interests. Looks fun! And I hope that I'll be in the force as soon as I finish my studies. It's a good deed everyone should do in the name of humanity, and biggest of all, it's what our religion suggests; regardless if you're a Muslim, Christian, Buddhist or a Hindu. Humanity is not limited to religion, race, and even species.




Take care, salam. :)
