Pangolicious  

Posted by Shad

I just got a new pet! It's a baby pangolin! Or more commonly known as our lovable ant-eater. Dad (who's a vet btw) brought back the baby since its mother abandoned it. Reason? Cause' it smelled like humans. Dad and his team worked hard at nursing the mother back to health and she repaid them by ditching her son. Sheesh.
Like koalas, ant-eaters are very particular about their food. They will eat only termites and huge-ass black ants, either that or they'll starve themselves. That's why there are only two zoos in the world that has pangolins in captivity. Dad said so far, his friend managed to keep his pangolin alive for only a month. ONLY ONE MONTH! Gosh. So, I've taken the responsibility of feeding the scaly bugger at the most ungodly hours (it's a nocturnal bugger)

It's only a month old, yet it refuses to take milk. This body builder prefers raw eggs (picky fella ain't it?) and must be fed upside down hanging from your arms. That way it could stick out its tongue and lap up the liquids.

 Our assignment meeting was constantly put on hold while we spoil the lil guy with loads of attention. It has this permanent sad look on its face la
We all ended up with scratches, pangolins have long and SHARP nails so they could dig into a termite mound or climb trees. Lesson well learnt!
When it was hooking on to Regina's hand, it started licking her fingers non stop and refused to climb on to my arm. It actually changed direction just so it could avoid ME! ME, his surrogate mother/father! It's a male, so naturally it chose her instead of me. Sigh, and here I was fantasizing of some male-pango-bonding with it. What ever happened to pango-bros before hoes????

Shwufen giving the 'you-better-not-fling-that-scaly-bugger-on-my-head-while-im-facebooking' look. Haha, chill lar.
That's all folks, goodnight!




Just a short clip of it, thought you guys might enjoy seeing it move. Heh

That Elephant Terrorist: Nuffnang Wild 'Live' Blogging Part II The Camwhore moments  

Posted by Shad

First of all i gotta thank Crystal for my camwhore pictures from the wild 'live' event. THANK YOU! And no, I'm not at all upset about the delay. No worries =D

Anyways, I just want to post up the pictures from the event since Mr Johnny Ong, requested for the second part. LOL. I was looking all over for famous people to take pictures with. HEHE

A tribute to Crystal Sue!! I was looking out for her when I first reached there, felt so lonely! The judging stares weren't helping either. She may not a celebrity blogger, but she felt like one to me when I met her. See, your picture came first before Kenny Sia =D

Haha, I've never taken pictures with a celebrity before okaaay, lame right? That's Kenny Pooh with his pot of beer. Didn't get to talk to him really, he was busy with the girls. Dang it, that was the first time I wished I was a well endowed chick instead of a not-at-all-endowed elephant.

That's Liang, the coolest jungle man emcee, period. He's a famous Malaysian singer apparently, but he can entertain the crowd wei! I was laughing so hard, my ears nearly fell off.

Me with Audrey the bumblebee. I figured she's a celebrity, but I don't even have her link. LOL, oh well..
*edited* Thanks Iamdoryfish for the info. Found her blog. Heh

I took a picture with her coz her wings whacked my ears. LOL! We were on the same boat la, I whacked so many bloggers that night. Finally, to avoid more casualties, I just walked sideways through the crowd. Haih.

As promised, me with Ringo! Crys said that's her famous cheesie smile. I got cheesed! YAY!

The food that the elephant missed. That's Cry's plate. Woi, why so little??? Whack some more la, how can you resist free Italian food! If i wanna eat, I have to take off my headgear to take off the trunk but because of a wardrobe malfunction, my cousin actually stapled the headgear together with the ears. Gah, so elephant terrorist had to go without dinner. FREE FOOD YOU KNOW!

Me with Robb! Fuh, I don't care what my friend said, he's freakin hot wei. He was so good looking, I was actually glad my face was covered. He came as a porcupine, haha. Good choice good choice. Wanted to talk to him but he was busy running around getting things done. Ah, the bane of being one of the organizers, you can't really enjoy the party. GREAT JOB BTW ROBB! The party was a blast! If you're organizing another party, I'm not gonna hesitate anymore.

I wasn't planning on going in the first place because it was just too far, so I mailed Robb. Next day I got a call from ROBB himself, telling me the reason why I should go. FUH, ROBB CALLED ME WEI.

Ah, another celebrity! That's PinkPau! I didn't know of course, Crys told me she's famous. Heh, I'm lousy when it comes to faces.

This picture is actually for Yee Seen. Runner ups for Malaysian dreamgirls, Adeline the zebra and Hanis the moth. Yee Seen messaged me to tell Hanis that she's her biggest fan. I told Hanis that, but she didn't say thanks also. Tsk.
Both of them are so tall~

I'm pretty sure they're famous bloggers. Can someone give me some info on them. Please and thank you!
*edited* Thanks electronicfly for the info. Thats The Suet Li on the left, Jane Doe still, on the right.



Haha this was when we were nominated as best dressed. Elephant terrorist, a he-cow with udders and a he-bunny were the guys. Ladybug with a leaf, lady-pea-cock and lioness were the girls.

That was the only thing I could take that night. A glass of water, with a straw. Damn sad right..haha. It was so freakin' hot in that costume!

Camwhored with Crys. I was smiling, btw. Thats all i guess. Many thanks to Crys again. Gotta go for class now. Yawns. Laterz

Tandoori Chicken Wangz  

Posted by Shad

Had a bbq earlier with a small group of compadres. I don’t know about you, but I really l-o-v-e doing barbeques. Maybe the art of manhandling your chicken with spicy sauce intrigues the hell outta me, or is it the sweet satisfaction that comes when you have a good fire going and that short whiff of charcoal-induced smoke. Ahhh…
Let Uncle Shad teach you the proper way of marinating your chicken. The best way to preserve the flavor of the sauce is to keep your marinated meat in a plastic bag. It’s an old age tradition and has been scientifically proven beyond any reasonable doubt, that the sauce can be absorbed effectively when kept in a plastic bag rather than a Tupperware. It was proven, just like how they’ve proven that women are naturally born bad drivers. I’m serious, it’s a biological thing. But that’s another story for another day ;)
Yes,yes..the correct way. Kudos to Ray for preparing the chicken wangz

Now I can’t stress this enough, bbq newbies tend to forget the most crucial element in starting a fire. No you can’t use rolled up newspapers since the ashes will muck up the wangz, no you can’t just throw a bunch of coals and strike it with a match, and get that can of gasoline away from the pit. Sheesh, with the correct amount of common sense and grey matter, you’d realize that you need a proper FIRESTARTER. The one brand that stands above the rest, that one brand that unites all bbqers alike, that one brand is none other than the COCK brand.

As crude as it sounds, Cock brand has never failed me before

Once you got a good fire going, slap some wangz on the pit and you're done for the day. Oh, the flavor for this bbq is Tandoori Chicken Wangz. If you want the recipe, you can ask Mr Ray Wang-Master Flex. He took charge of this bbq. Our previous successes include The Black Peppered Chicken Wangz and The Authentic Black Peppered Kung Pao Chicken Wangz dipped in Thai Chilli Sauce. Good times, good times.

Tell me that doesn't look good

Coupled with some of Sally's homemade chocolate jelly...

some fries..

and some noodles, equals a damn good meal

Juicy juicy chicken wangz


Since we're already on this subject, i just find it completely relevant to put up this picture i took outside my house. Not only do i have loads of weird animals running around my backyard, i have dead ones too.

Poor birdie

That Elephant Terrorist: Nuffnang Wild 'Live' Blogging Part I  

Posted by Shad

Sorry for the late update, but I'm still waiting for a friend of mine,Crys to send me the pictures. As she is pretty busy at the moment(and i dun wanna kacau her =P not my camera maaa), I managed to snag some pictures from kidchan studio.
Kudos to Kidchan Studio and Shaolin Tiger for doing a brilliant job! LOVE THE PICTURES!

All I can say is OMGWTF WOW!!!! Nuffnang really went all out to give bloggers one hell of a good time! A costume party??? And LOADS of prizes! FUH!
Young adults(and apparently an old man) donned in animal attire really show that Malaysian people can be open-minded about things. Damm shiok! Wahahhaha

I really wanted to go as a donkey, but I had to make some/ANY simple costume to go for the party which was on the following day. So I asked my sister to help me out with the tedious sewing.(I can’t sew for nuts) and she kept insisting that I go as a CAT. LOL! For the love of god, woman! I’ve heard of Catwoman before… but Cat-Man??? HARLOWW!

Finally, being a small sized person, I decided to go as the LARGEST land mammal on earth. A freakin’ elephant. The terrorist part was actually an improvisation. The only way I could stick the ears to my head is by sewing it to a towel wrapped around my head. I thought it looked funny, until I put on a pair of shades. Fuh!

Thus, the elephant terrorist was born. *jeng jeng jengggg*

At first i was a little bit skeptical arrr about going in an outrageous costume such as that. Plus, my auntie even said that i definitely can't win anything wearing my elephant costume. HAIH! So, I walked towards the entrance with a heavy heart, expecting a lousy day. Boy was i wrong =D
The first thing i saw was a freakin' gorilla in a suit smoking near the stairs, and some cows having a group talk. ROTFLMAO! Very the weird! I was of course met with a lot of stares lar. I even heard lots of "Oh gosh what the f**k is that??" " ELEPHANT!""Oi oi, look look. HAHA!" Heh, i was glad that my WHOLE face was covered. Else arr, daamn shy. Then this lady came up to me from behind, "Ei, can we do a really short interview of you, just for a second?" I turned around so fast, she got slapped by my gigantic ears. Aiyooo...sorry Miss Ntv7 interviewer! I was of course game for anything as long as i don't have to take off my mask. I can make a fool out of myself with no strings attached. My best way of having fun Ringo in the middle! I took a picture with her, and she gave me her famous cheesie smile! YAY, i was proud coz she said she liked my costume! Cheesie said that okaaay, i never bruff you...which reminds me, I couldn't find Wingz aka Rojaks. =(



Ah, I have no idea who this two dudes are so if any of you have their url, please inform me. The funniest dudes around, one of them got real wasted. Free flow maa
I failed as a terrorist, nobody was frightened by me. I kept telling them that i'll blow something up tonight. They only replied with, "Eh can we take a picture please?" WHY WONT THEY LISTEN?? My post on my pet tapir won one of the categories that night. Mr Timothy, the founder for Nuffnang gave out the prize. Friendliest lion around.
The only two elephants. A pink one and a freedom fighter one.
One thing that's still bugging me, who or what is HE supposed to be?? A cactus? A walking plant of some sort? Can somebody PLEASE tell me





I don’t have many pictures with me now, but if you wanna see more elephant pictures (and other animals of course), here are some of the links. (Promoting links here =D)

Drafted In Nam ( Part VI )  

Posted by Shad

One of the main entrances. It was decorated with ALOT of booby traps like grenades and mines. My guide's actual words " They set alot of traps for the Americans. Do we have any Americans here? You, sir? Ok, please be careful " LOL
Another entrance, you have to crawl to go in.

Vietnamese chick. They always have 10 people in one group, and each group will have only one female. Guess what's the purpose of the female in the war zone? Yup, you guessed it right......




 To do the cooking laaa..sheesh



This termite mound is connected to the tunnels, the VCs used them as their air ventilation. If you look closely, you'll see lots of holes around the mound. Efforts at gassing and drowning them proved to be ineffective.

I needed to camwhore somehow right
