From My Point Of VIEW

life is tragic
everyone is actually alone in this world

there r many kinds of ppl out there

but all of them r alone

there r such things as friends
but they dun last very long

except for those ppl who realy understand each other well

humans r humans
they crave for companionship every time

they must have someone with them
even if it's their enemy

leaving someone alone in a empty room for years
tat person will go mad
makes me curious wat made humans this way

having enemies
is fun
makes ur life more interesting

u'll feel anger, sadness and fustration
it beats feeling nothing anyways

nowadays, my life hav been boring
every since i left secondary sch
i hav no more enemies to fight with

no one to pick on me
giving me a reason to fight back

i find studying is much more interesting nowadays

i dun wana look like those ppl on the train
they look...dead
lifeless even though they r supposed to be alive

yes
they r breathing n moving
able to reproduce
but....
so lifeless
kinda like bacterial
jus doin wat they r supposed to do
having no fun at all

expressionless

been through ups and downs
conflicts
got hurt by friendship
nvr learn my lesson

seeing ppl sticking to ppl
seeing ppl following ppl
seeing snatching of friends
seeing breaking friendship
seeing crumbling future

TO THE HECK WITH ALL!

i had enough of this
trying to get to all my friends then leaving me out
get a friend elsewhere pls
dun keep sticking to MY friends

I DUN GIVE A DAMN ANYMORE
im through with humans (hopefully)
as most of them r hopeless...

LIFE SUCKS
AS THERE R MANY SUCKY PPL AROUND

MY DOG , MY BROTHER

animal anatomy and physiology lab
was starting soon
i waited outside e lab with my classmates

the door of the lab opened
the smell of formalin came rushing out

it's a very strong smell.
a smell which i would never forget

as i entered the lab
i saw a dog
lying on a cold hard metal table

it was all stiffed and still

dead...

was all i could think about in that instant

as i walked closer
the smell of formalin got stronger

we have to learn the muscles of a dog
using the dead dog as a model

i started naming the muscles
from the butt onwards
proceeding to the head

my classmates were complaining
about the strong smell of formalin

i was near the butt of the dog
bent on memorizing the names of the muscles

as i went on to the neck muscles
i saw its head

the body stiff and lifeless
eyes half opened in slits
lifeless
nose, hard

the body lifeless
no signs of softness or warmth

images of my dog
started flashing across my mind

he's a naughty bundle of fur
aggressive...ferocious
but all bark, no bite

every time, every single time
without fail
he would be waiting for me to come home

ears pricked, nose twitching

as i shouted through the gate
of my house
noisy barking started like firecrackers
without seeming to end

as i stepped into the house
i yelled "pee!"

the barking stopped
he peeped
through his crate
ears pricked
n barked again
this time

short series of barks

his name, Cody
but my sis n i gave him many nicknames
"pee" or "pee-boy" or "peedy" (cos he pees a lot when he was a pup)
"pokey" "white shit" "sai sai"
all kinds of name that shows that we love him

as i enter the kitchen
tails wagging
he greeted me
he's eyes shining shining so brightly
like it was his happiest moment

begging for treats,
nibbling my fingers,
turning over requesting me to rub his furry belly,
ticking of his claws against the floor,
snuggling up against me giving me his warmth,
even growling snarling barking noisily,

tearing up mats,

behaving badly,

all these shows me that he's alive
that he's well

i would never want him
to be in any kind of harm

i would never want him
to leave me

no matter what

he must be there...

as i jolt back to the present
tears were forming in my eyes
my nose hurts
a lump in my throat

not because of the strong smell of formalin

i stroked the head of the lifeless dog
it was 2-3 years old

same age as Cody
i cant help comparing

'you r too young to die' i tot

as my classmates were chatting
complaining about the smell

i would not want any animal to die
i gazed into its lifeless eyes
running my hand across its
still body

'it's not fair...'
'nothing is ever fair...y?'

i could not do anything
i felt helpless

i don't want Cody to end up like this
i want him to be warm, fluffy, soft
even naughty i dun mind
for as long as forever

as long as he's alive

i helped another one of my classmate
to put the dead dog into a huge container

it's like...
a dead weight

so different
compared to when im carrying Cody
struggling in my arms,
warm, soft
n full of life

i wouldn't wish death upon any animal

i won't want to let Cody go

even when it's his time to go
even when it's natural for him to go
even when it's the right choice to let him go

u can call me selfish
stupid
or any names u want

but i will never let him go

i don't treat him like a pet
i don't treat him like a dog
i don't treat him like a toy

i treat him like my brother
someone who is part of me
without Cody
my family will never be complete

I will never be complete

my bundle of fur

my warmth
my brother
my soul

Infra-sound

Theory: Tiger's growl/roar is able to paralyze its victims temporarily

victims who survived from tiger attacks claim tat they felt numb, their body paralyzed temporarily after hearing wat seemed to be a tiger's roar and then was being attacked by a tiger.

scientist found out that infra-sound is emitted by tigers via their growl/roar.

infra-sound is a sound so low tat humans r unable 2 hear. however, humans are able 2 feel e effects of infra-sound, for example, vibration can be felt if infra-sound is played. animals, on e other hand, r able 2 emit n receive/hear infra-sound.

many ppl think tat giraffes r unable e communicate with each other via sound. giraffes, in fact, r able 2 communicate with each other via sound. they use infra-sound. as humans r unable 2 detect infra-sound, they tink tat giraffe r mute. the giraffes hav deep chest with large lungs and long necks. air pushed out from their lungs, travel up their windpipe 2 their voicebox at a very fast speed. due 2 their long windpipe n deep chest, e sounds tat they emit are infra-sound.

experiments done: two experiments did on tigers to prove tat tigers r able to detect infra-sound.

experiment 1:
a young malayan tiger, about 16 months, was caught and placed in a zoo. it was sedated and then transported to a lab.
as it was a young tiger, scientists think tat its sensitivity towards infra-sound is higher compared to an adult or older tiger.
equipment use to detect brain activity was placed at the back of the young tiger's skull. if the young tiger is able to detect infra-sound, though being sedated, the equipment will be able to detect extra brain activity apart from the normal brain activity.
infra-sound was being played via a microphone placed near the tiger's ear. humans there r unable to hear anything. however, the data showed tat there are signs of brain activity, apart from the norm, happening in the brain of the young tiger when the infra-sound was being played.

experiment 2:
a tigress with her two cubs were being tested
infra-sound was being played in the direction of the tigress and her 2 cubs. the infra-sound was taken from a roar emitted by a 400 pounds angry adult male Siberian tiger.

male tigers are known for killing and attacking young tiger cubs.

if the tigress is able to detect the infra-sound, which was being played, she would show signs of distress and alarm and will be on the alert.
if not, the tigress will be relax waiting over her cubs while the cubs play around.

when the infra-sound was being played, the cubs stopped playing and were curious about the sound that was being played. the cubs were not alrmed as they were born in the zoo and were not aware tat the sound, which was being played, was emitted by a male tiger. the tigress, on te other hand, was alarm and in distress. she was pacing about the enclosure, looking out for the 'tiger' who was emitting that sound. she was on the alert and was watching out for her cubs.


these two experiments shows that tigers r able to detect infra-sound.

today's tittle will be TOOTH EXTRACTION

my tooth began 2 ache on the 29th dec 2009 (i think)

i dun even drink cola n i dun like eating sweets

so how e hell did my tooth end up like this? -.-

anyways, e toothache was so painful tat i had 2 eat painkillers
i cant close my mouth properly
cant eat properly
even when eating porridge
also hurt like Hell

so e first thing on my mind
was...
Tooth Extraction

i was quite excited n
was determined
2 get my tooth extracted

i din eat much
eating was painful 4 me
n suai suai
it's New Year
so i din celebrate
at all
was like using all my
mind energy
2 endure e pain

2nd jan 2010
got my tooth extracted

b4 tat went 2 my sis
new secondary school
all this while my tooth was throbbing throbbing

cant feel e pain much
cos on painkillers

then, tat late afternoon
went 2 e dentist

i was excited at first
not feeling totally scared at all
cos i was like thinking
"great! i can finally get rid of tat damn tooth n im sure it's gonna b a Hell of an experience"

while e dentist n my mum were discussing about whether want an replacement or total extraction
i was like grinning from ear 2 ear like a total idiot
(im an idiot in e end)
n was like saying "extraction! extraction!"

e dentist told/warned us saying tat he needs 2 remove this tooth
which is a molar n it's big
so it will leave a huge hole

but i din care
as long as i can eat without pain
so i said "extraction! extraction!"

my mum was like "ok loh"
then she went out, leaving me with e dentist

i asked my usual question
"will it hurt?"
nope, tat was e answer i got
cos part of my mouth will b numbed

first, he made me lie down
then he began 2 inject e 'numbing medicine'
using something like a syringe n a needle
he gave me 4 shots

i was then made 2 wait 4 a few mins
all this while, i felt e right part of my mouth began 2 'harden'
it's like someone is covering part of ur face with hard plaster

then, e TOOTH EXTRACTION begans
he used a huge metal clipper-like thing with a handle
e moment i saw tat
i start 2 think im i n idiot or wat

he grip my tooth with tat 'thing'
n he began 2 twist n turn twist n turn
tat's when e pain hits me in e head

i was thinking "wat kind of shit hav i got myself into?"
then, i began 2 focus on my perfect-kind-of-guy image
in my head
still it was hurting

so i kind of like let loose a soft whine
n e dentist was like, "it's it painful? r u doin ok?"

i nodded my head at e painful or not question
so he gav me 2 more shots of e numbing medicine
note: (usually, ppl receive only 2 shots. shows tat i cant withstand pain well)

then more twisting n turning, twisting n turning
my head was also jerking around cos of e force
n my mind was like "dun cry dun scream dun cry dun scream, im in deep shit!"

e dentist said "a little bit more"
but 2 me was Hell long
"like Hell it was a short time when he said little bit more"

then i felt ripping
then ease.............
cant even feel a single damn thing
saw e bloody tooth on e tray
he cleaned up e wound n my mouth
then stuck a piece of gauze n ask my 2 clamp my mouth shut on it
i felt like gagging n retching
cos of e foreign material in mouth

but i din

i could still ask if i could keep my tooth
n he was like "ya sure"

my mind was in total chaos
relief, pain, shock
i could not really think straight

i stumbled out of e room
feeling like a burden had been taken of me

then, my tooth was being passed 2 me at e counter
in a tiny Ziploc bag

mum n sis were disgusted by it

it wasnt painful
till e numbness wears off
then it hurts
n i had 2 eat 2 painkillers tablets
2 ease e pain
i saw e hole
n damn
wat a huge hole it is
n WAT A WAY TO CELEBRATE E NEW YEAR...............
