WILD AT HEART

Truth

I can't wait for the March break. I want to meet the new house dog my dad brought back and my 5 new puppies. Too bad, it's just a week, I'm sure I won't be looking forward to coming back to school. I wonder how's my dog, Blackie doing. She's my first dog after my family vowed never to own a pet (because of the death of our 2 dogs - poisoned apparently by my neighbours). Looking back, I'm like my dad too, we both love animals. Sometimes I just don't understand why he did it, like killing my dogs or attempted to kill my puppies. I think he feels hurt too. It must be really hard for him...to put the dog in the sack, filled it with big stones and then  throw it down the river...I wonder what was going through his head at that time. Then again, remembering the time when he brought Blackie home, he didn't tell us actually. That time we had a 4-wheel drive, so the dog was at the boot, sitting down quietly. And we were in a hurry to get to a meeting, didn't bother to look at the back. Suddenly my bro exclaimed!...Sure, we were mad, but not so mad...we wanted to be mad cos he broke the rule, but in the end we give in. It's amazing how dogs can do wonders to your life, their loyalty just amazes you and their love for you is so evident in their eyes. It's just pleading, yearning for your firm hand on their head, to show how please you are with their behaviour...Yeah, I never really did forgive my dad for killing my previous dogs (one was because it was acting a bit wild, in fact it looks a bit like a wolf and it has an extra toe; the other was because it was sick, maybe beyond cure, but then again I had faith; and another one, a growing puppy, my dad hit him till it couldn't eat, couldn't sit properly for days and I think it was sensitive too, it just gave up all hope to live, I never get the chance to tell it how much I love her, so when my bro told me, I was crying here!!) I remembered that my bro was very mad with my dad for abusing the puppy like that, I mean it's a puppy, it's still learning to become a disciplined dog. If you do that to a dog, wouldn't that reflects what you would do to a child too. My bro told him off(that's pretty daring of him since my dad is a tough man). Then I think my dad felt guilty or something, that's why bring back a house dog, Blondie. And also tried to search owners for my puppies. Yeah, initially I wanted to criticize my dad too for killing the puppy just because it's noisy but I think my dad appreciate it when I don't make a sound about it and I don't even ask where the puppy is. He's a complicated man, my dad. Just like me too, nobody gets to know how we really feel: sad, happy, angry, mad etc. But I still love him just the same!

Continuation on my puppies

Problems solved! Well, not totally. My parents just found out a pet owner for my puppies. Of course not all 5 will be given to him, maybe the most he would take is 2, so that's why I need to find more potential dog owners. Yesterday, my mind just wasn't with me, thinking about how to 'get rid' of the puppies without having to kill them. Maybe that's why I'm so tired, slept at 10pm last night. Supposedly a short nap, but I never get up till 4am. Man, fortunately I finished my homework. Now half of the problem is solved, I can rest easy. By the way, the new owner is my relative's relative. Wow! Now the market for my puppies has extended to my extended family's extended family, more like a 2nd degree relative. :)

Follow-up on the puppies

I just went to check the net whether there's any SPCA in Miri and guess what, there's none! NONE, I tell you! Oh man, now my puppies are doom...somehow I must search for a pet owner for my puppies, otherwise they'll be dead!  I know animals are in subjection to us and that gives us the right to anything to them, but to kill innocent puppies, is it morally correct? Someone out there please give me a suggestion...

Dilemma - What to do with 5 new puppies

I have 5 new pups. My dog, Blackie, gave birth 2 days ago. And yeah, they're all black! Now, I have 7 dogs. Too bad I couldn't keep all of them. My dad would kill them since we can't afford to rear all of them in our small compound. And his killing method means drowning them and I can't bear to watch them die like that. They're so innocent. I guess tonight I would beg my dad not to dispose of them till I return. In that 1 week break, I have to figure out who to give the pups to. All my relatives have dogs cos I gave them my previous pups. Oh boy, now I don't know what to do...I was wondering maybe I should send them to SPCA for adoption. I hope they have a branch in my hometown.

A follow-up of the room

I remember promising you guys I would tell you more about the room. Anyways, my friends and I moved in last night. The ceiling is still not repaired, so the light drizzle yesterday evening flooded (slight exaggeration) our room. Made a report already at the office, our 3rd in fact. They're really, really slow in fulfilling it.  Managed to move all my stuff last night, wasn't that tough. I guess I must be used to walking up and down the stairs. hehe. I counted the steps last night. I remembered saying that it was about 90 steps...but it was just 54 steps. Phew! Last night was the first night sleeping in the new room and with my new roommates/friends...it was WEIRD...feels like summer camp! Though lots of misfortunes happened last night, like the leaking ceiling and Al's locked locker, we still love the room. The juniors tried to force open our door in the middle of the night, don't know what are they trying to do. Unfortunately I was sleeping, it's Al who heard them. It could be that they're trying to introduce themselves to us, but dude, it was in the middle of the night and our room lights were off, so doesn't that indicate we're sleeping? Geez, I just wonder what are they going to do if we're not around. We happened to have 2 bars, which were initially used to join the lockers together, but we took it off to create more space to the room. At first we weren't sure what to do with the bars, then Elin suggested to use them to hit any robbers. You know what's weird, we seem to feel that we're living in an apartment than a dorm. Yes, it seems like a joke (concerning the bars) but now I think we really need them. We don't know what neighbours we have.

I woke up early this morning, 6am. Actually, I woke up earlier, about 5.30am. The chill in the air woke me up and since then I couldn't go back to sleep. Still can hear the prayer calls but it sounds so far away, so it wasn't that bad. Though I was shivering, I still managed to shower in the new bathroom. The cubicle is much higher than the previous dorm. Hmm, maybe I'm shorter? hehe. All the showers have shower heads, unlike the previous one, none at all! How pathetic is that? My first time going to the eating hall for breakfast, it was 2 pieces of bread, baked beans, chilli sauce and a sausage. Well, not bad. After class, we're going shopping for the new room as planned. I really, really, really hope they'll fix the ceiling. Then we could arrange the beds according to planned. I guess that's all. Have a nice day to anyone who reads this post!

Yay, I'm gonna move!!!

I'm goin to move to a new room (Aisyah block) and guess who my roommates are? None other than my 2 buddies of mine: ALLISON and EE LIN!!  We will move in tonight. Brought some stuff already last night, and tonight we move all our stuff in. I can't believe I have so much things to bring, remind me to pack some of stuff to bring back home... Anyways, I'm so excited! Guess where my new room's gonna be? THIRD FLOOR!! So just imagine how I many steps I have to climb and lugging my heavy suitcases, plastic bags up! Someone counted the steps and it's about 90 steps, 90! Whew, I think from now on, I'm gonna be really fit. hehehe. Tomorrow we're going shopping to furnish our new room. Al suggested we have a pool table in the middle of the room, which is kinda cool and possibly a bar at the corner and hang a darts board behind the door. Wow! The more we thought of it, the more interesting it becomes. I'm so excited, I just couldn't sleep last night.

If you ask me how's it gonna be living with your best friends? I think it's gonna ROCK BIG TIME! Now I will never dread coming back to school, ever again. I'll never get to hear "alternative rock" since it's so far back and I feel more at home living with non-muslims. If not, it's gonna be really difficult cos they have all these unspoken rules and sometimes they impose them on you. Even if it's not your roommates, but still, you have your roommates' friends to deal with. And I can eat anything I want in my room. No signboards saying "No pork allowed" or maybe "No dogs allowed". My friends wanted to stick weird signs in front of our door, like the guys' toilet sign, no entry sign, dogs sign etc. Whoa! Really, we're sorta like putting up a defence system around our room. Did I mention that it is a corner room? and that we've a balcony at the back which is facing the trees from the neighbours? So it looks almost like a resort. I thought we could see the Academic Block from our room, but then the trees sorta covered the view. Man, when first entered the room, it was like magic cos all 3 of us immediately fell in love with it and decided to call it our own. Then plans start flowing from our heads to make the room more interesting. Al said that with all the 'unnecessary' gadgets in the room, it looks more like a bachelor's apartment. The new room will become a zone where we can escape from the outside world.

I know my previous roommates weren't that happy when I decided to move with my friends, but why do I care? It's not like they ever want me there anyway! I become more like a trophy to them, having a non living with you. We've always been a trophy, self-proclaiming themselves to be our buddies when they're just acquaintances. So am I a snob?.........Tell you more about the room first thing tomorrow morning.

My complaints

If you have noticed, this post is under the Politics category, it's not coincidence. No, not at all! You know what I've learnt since I studied here? NEVER TO TRUST ANYONE!!  I'm very appalled by the politics here. Heard quite a lot of gossips about the least expected people, but this wasn't just anyone teeny-weeny, harmless gossips we're talkin' about. These gossips can kill people BIG time, figuratively of course. It's their image that gets damaged. This is not applicable just to the victims of the gossips, but also to the ones who talked about it too. They backstabbers BIG TIME! If you've watched Mean Girls, it's just like that but WORSE!!!

I have a dog...

I'm very proud to announce that I have a new dog, it's a pet dog, you know, the kind that lives in the house... But I haven't seen it yet, still stuck in school. School break would only be in March and there's about 30++ days left!  Anyways, my brother named it January, I think cos of the fact that my dad brought it home in January. But my parents named it Blondie cos of its golden fur. I asked my bro how does the dog look like...and he said it looked exactly like my toy dog on my bed, Hedwig (told you about him in my previous post). Wow! If that's the case, it's very cute and added with the fact that it loves to be cuddled. And when it wants to be cuddled, it would leap onto the sofa! WAHHHH!!! That is cute beyond words!  If only I have a digital camera, I could upload the picture to let you guys see it. Or maybe a camera phone...then, my bro could send me the pictures. Man, I can't WAIT to go home...
