Xander: The Saga Continues…
I have mentioned about Xander the kitten, on my previous post , which also briefly detailed about how he got so sick in his first two weeks in his new adopted house. I really thought it was the worst experience having a sick pet, but I was wrong, of course. He threw up his breakfast [...]
Introducing: Xander
Xander was adopted from Cat Haven a day after my birthday. I had spent over an hour going through every cage and seeing all abandoned cats and kitens but couldn’t make up my mind. There were two very gorgeous teenage cats that I loved, but since I am only allowed to adopt one and these [...]
Snakes in Da House
I have mentioned about our encounter with Australia’s creepy crawlies on my previous post (read it here). Now I just want to talk about one specific thing: Snakes. There are real Australian people who have never seen snakes in their entire lives. They, of course, have heard stories about venomous snakes, or probably seen them [...]
Rockpool Restaurant & The Power of Twitter (part 2)
Read the first part here. Sometime a go I went to a Michelin star restaurant, The Kitchin, in Edinburgh. The restaurant was awarded one Michelin star for excellence in 2007, and the chef, Tom Kitchin, is the youngest ever Scottish Chef proprietor to receive one. The list of awards the restaurant has been collecting is [...]
Rockpool Restaurant & The Power of Twitter (part 1)
Rockpool, 2010 best restaurant in Sydney according to Time Out magazine, which also scored 3 gongs (best new restaurant of the year, wine list of the year, and maitre d’ of the year) from 2010 Australian Gourmet Traveller Restaurant Awards, has just opened its Perth restaurant end of last year. Excited to try one of [...]
My Guide To Life
Big title, hey? Therry actually tagged me a month a go to spread my wisdom (*cough) to my dearest readers. I am pretty sure I am not the one people should run to when they hit a wall as I am no Deepak Chopra, but as Therry said, “There must be some people out there [...]
Looking Into The Future (Part Two)
Read part one here. I found a website, conveniently called Coffee Cup Readings Online, that explains how the coffee reading process takes in detail: 1. Simply drink your coffee in white china with no inside pattern or decoration. It can be any sort of coffee as long as it leaves sediment after drinking. Shapes and [...]
Looking Into The Future (Part One)
Fortune-telling, the practice of predicting information about a person’s life, isn’t something I’m generally interested in. I grew up in the environment that has shaped me to usually rely on facts, tangible things, and physical existence. Which is quite uncommon for Indonesians, who normally believe in mystics, superstition, and supernatural powers. But just like everyone [...]
Summer in Perth Means It’s Time For Creepy Crawlies – and More!
It’s a quiet Sunday night. We were watching telly when suddenly he jumped out of his chair, shouting, “snake!!”. The accused creature was about 20 cm long, very thin, very black, and moving very fast around our front room. Because of its size he thought it’s a baby snake, and the thought of a baby [...]
Alexandr Orlov: The Most Famous Meerkat in The World
Alexandr Orlov was shot to fame in January 2009 when he started to appear on British TV commercials. The aristocratic meerkat started off as a fictitious furry character thought up by the VCCP advertising agency as a fun diversion for its comparethemarket.com client. The story is always the same, that Orlov is frustrated because people [...]
