It’s always nice to have a holiday, especially one right in the middle of the week!

I was transferring some of our plants to new pots when I noticed we have a lime tree growing in one of the pots, sharing the place with another plant.
And… No surprise, we see a caterpillar.
No surprise coz we know from experience that lime trees attract caterpillars. The last lime tree we bought was ‘killed’ by the caterpillars.
Ironic thing… We love nature. So, depriving the caterpillars of food is not-so-right. Yet, leaving them alone means saying goodbye to the lime tree. But we trust nature will somehow create a balance. Hopefully, this time, the lime tree don’t die on us.

…Looks like something out of an alien invasion movie, huh?
Lots of thunderstorms and heavy rain over the last few days…

I like looking at stars at night. I can sometimes just stare at the sky for hours and just me amazed by what I see. Looking at stars is a really hard-to-describe experience… For someone like me, who knows nothing about the stars, I can only admire the moon and the twinkle. I won’t even know the names of the stars (or even planets) that I’m looking at.
But it is not easy to see stars when one is living close to the city as the lights from buildings and street lights will somehow block out the stars.
This evening, I was somehow lucky enough to see bright stars lighting up the evening sky. I could see the moon. There were also two other bright objects in the sky (sorry, not UFO)…
I wished I knew what the other two bright objects were… Then I remembered I had installed Google Sky Map. Hmmm… I guess it would be a good test of the apps. Continue reading »

Have been busy the past 1-2 weeks and will continue to be busy for the next few weeks… Going through some metamorphosis (not literally, of course).
Oh ya… The guy who robbed my dad was caught. Seems he was caught that night itself.

If there is anything a nation needs to look out for and weed out, it is corruption. Left unchecked, a nation can be destroyed by corruption.
Think about it.
If corruption is the norm in a country, then it is a situation where anything is possible and money can get you anything.
Want a application approved? Just ‘contribute’ to the ‘retirement fund’.
Want to have your police record cleared? It can be done — just pass some cash over.
Want to make someone disappear? No problem… Tell us how you like the person to disappear and we’ll tell you how much.
Soon, everyone in the country starts to understand how the system works. People realise the law can be broken. People start to realise that as long as you have the money, you can get away with anything…
And slowly… The nation falls.
The poor can’t go anywhere and have to remain. The rich, they bail out and live elsewhere. The corrupted? They have enough money to also live elsewhere…

Dad called me up as we were preparing to go to bed. He told me that he has just been robbed and he is in the hospital.
He had been slashed.
Not again… Just about one month back, my mum’s handbag was snatched. Now it’s my dad’s turn…
I called my brother and we quickly rushed to the hospital. When we arrived, dad was already being checked on by the doctors in the hospital. He had one cut on the forehead, one on the arm and another at the palm. But the bleeding had stopped and doctors said that it looks like my dad was lucky to only have external injuries.
Thank goodness dad is alright.
But I really wonder… What is Malaysia turning into…?!?
