The Language Of..


What
is
fascinating
thing
on
the
web? Without a shout of a doubt the
acebook!!!!!








To get things started here, most of you all out there write more enthusiastically on Facebook than actually you are in real life, right? If u see something remotely funny u might say “HAHAHAHA,” when really there is no expression on your face. Some of you spend one or ‘maybe three or maybe six hours a day’ on Facebook. You get updates and messages to your phone during school and business day, when you’re not on raya holiday hanging out on Facebook the way people in a quaint and distant era might have hang out at pool.

In the dark, medieval days before the internet, teenagers were forced to scribble their strategies experiments in self-hood in buku conteng,journal and notebooks, or to express themselves through their clothes. The high drama was the same but in media available were inferior. How amazing it is to be able to tell your 1000 something ‘closest’ friends, “guess who I saw at mid? I coughed blood and it was awkward!!!! Or "im so bored”.

Facebook gives exhibitionism, the pure theater of those days, a whole other level of stage. So it’s not life imitating art or art imitating life, but the two were merging inexorably. But one fictional argot of Facebook for teenagers would be emphatic speech. Their pages are peppered with ‘Okkayy’, “HAHAHAHAHA” and “OMG!!!!”Everything is louder and capitalized. This is the way of dramatizing or raising the stakes on even the most inane or banal exchange. You don’t just look cute. You look sooooooooooo cute!!!!!

One of the other great adolescent poses of Facebook is "can’t wait for the world to end,” you might add “lol” or you might say “Hey you are at Malaysia and I’m in England, and I just want to say I miss you,hahahaha,’’ to make clear that you are not really looking forward to anything or expressing an actual emotion in a way that might be overly earnest or embarrassing.

Some even seem to like to parody the Facebook norms even as they embrace them. When they write ‘omg’, they are not ironically commenting on the use of ‘omg’. When other people say ‘omg’ they are seriously saying ‘oh my god!’.It should be said that adults are not necessarily more themselves on facebook.

They are simply less natural or conversant when they are “fictionalize”.Somewhere in the gap between status posting and the person in their room at night is life itself. So fiction is the right response to make about who we are in this dangerously consuming media. Somehow Facebook is the novel that we all are writing.

With a land to spare, A place to rare.

Our farm is located in Jasin 8 minutes ride from UTEM Melaka.
U will be greeted with our very own duck farm which consists of 500(Kortlang Khaki Campbell (kacukan Thailand) This ducks are just 2 months old (this buggers really grow in a zap). The species that ends up in your duck rice plate.



We have released an orwegian goose, actually there is another species lookalike with this one embden goose. Both can be differentiate by the colour of their legs, orwegian has orange webbed feet while the other with black webbed feet. This goose can act as personal guard for this ducks, capable of warding off predatory animals.

Water of the pond is regulatory cleaned on Sundays by pumping in new water from a stream nearby.In 20 weeks time, egg laying session will begin. And this is when brooding takes a hectic pace.

And yes we have tons of fruit trees such langsat, duku, durian and rambutan.

Agriculture is indeed in blooming in Malaysia rapidly since government has increased initiative to reduce Malaysia dependents on foreign goat supply. Why can’t we taste our very our ‘kambing chop’?
This is our very own low cost goat house. Goats do NOT like the rain! A wet goat is vulnerable to respiratory illness. Goats require a dry, ventilated shelter. A stall where they can be locked in at night is best but a three-sided enclosure is fine unless you live in a high predator area. Straw or pine shavings can be used as bedding as long as it stays dry. For their safety--It is always best to lock them in at night Goats are very curious and they like to climb and play on things an old picnic table, stumps or anything else they can jump up on provides hours of fun and entertainment for the goats AND you! Collars not recommended as they can easily get hung up with all of their jumping and other acrobatic
Houses more than 100 goats with various breeds

We have Jamnapari,Boer and Kalahari and Malaysia goats.

Can you see the dangling red square, its mineralized salt a.ka. saltlick. Salt is needed for most animals that have four legs. Goats and needs access of the mineralized salt at all times to prevent occurrence of urinary calculi, which is fatal. Each animal has an individual salt and mineral requirement, which is dependent on large number of factors: body weight and growth rate, age, pregnancy, lactation phase and milk yield, perspiration and performance. A mineral deficiency manifests itself in a loss of appetite, weight loss, decrease in milk yield, breeding problem, reduced growth and a decline in natural resistance. Some animals even start licking the walls due to decline of good taste!!!
















A south African boer famous for its meat, this goats have been tagged (yellow tag) indicates it has been vaccinated and checked by Department of Veterinary Service. The goats are injected with deworming medicine Ivermectin to eradicate parasite load inside goat’s tummy. Since goat has four stomach.We deworm our goat every 6 to eight weeks.
p.s. This goat talk reminds me of this movie ‘The men who stare at goats’ is a mostly entertaining, farcical glimpse of men at war.

Oberhasil goat



Oberhaslis are a standardized color breed, with warm reddish brown accented with a black dorsal stripe, legs, belly, and face. Occasionally a black Oberhasli appears as a result of recessive genes. Check out the kid cute aint it??

And my personal favorite goat..pygmy goat..

The one and only pet goat...midget type..
(p.s.-not in my farm, just hard to resist for not posting)

Will keep updating on our farm.After all farming is all about pleasure and profit.If interested message me.

A florist called Floria in Putrajaya

Floria 2010 showcases Malaysian flora varieties. It is the third time the Floria Putrajaya/Putrajaya Flower and Garden Festival held. Themed “Tropical Splendour” the event promises a garden exhibition with creative and attractive designs from the government and private sectors, corporations, associations and flower growers as well as international garden designers. It’s a heaven in paradise for green thumb people, Nikon DSLR owners (paparazzi wanabes), and not forget those lovely cute couples. Hence for a nature lover like me, it’s a opportunity to take informative experience walkaway in search of similar flora found in Laidback Serenity (to my disappoint none of it was showcased, or maybe ‘they don’t know the existence of it). The theme flower for the event is the heliconia where many species displayed at the exhibitions, floral arrangements, garden and landscape designs and decoration.

Check out the name sepit ketam jingga andromeda?so star trecky...

I was totally awed by bonsais displayed at Floria 2010. Just a sight to behold this miniature trees, the branches and the trunk statically depicting a fantasizing movement of greenery. Kudos to Songfong Bonsai & Art Garden for showcasing such an artistic display.





Sexy Pink??That's a feminine name. To be honest, most of the flowers has done their over time. Clearly seen in their faces(petals).Some of the flowers are drying up and decaying from the blazing sun. Even the sexy pink heloconia missing.

Another 'thing' that caught my attention was this oddly looking ‘erection’ banana plant (musa ornate lavender pink musaceae) opposite to the normal banana plant. Comparing both of them, reminds me of...nevermind. Such an exotic flower would surely send one of it to my valentine. "Darling happy valentine, here lavender pink musaceae".

Does this kebab looking plant (zingiber ottinsii) remind of kebab pasar malam??


Gosh they sure do got lotta time with kacang hijau..

Moreover Floria Putrajaya 2010 exhibits the largest number of heliconias with more than 400,000 flowers in the floral and garden exhibition. TEN gardens and floral arrangements by international experts from Indonesia, Britain, Australia, Japan, Canada, Taiwan, Holland, New Zealand and Serbia. Photography and water colour painting competitions. A Floral Pavilion (Indoor Pavilion) containing 50 garden and landscape designs, together with floral arrangements such as Celebrity Musical Garden, Special Courtyard Garden, Tropical Paradise Garden and Twilight Garden and Exhibitions and creative garden design competitions for school and university students.

Is that Shakira in waka-waka dress??


The final destination of floria 2010 comes to a perfect end with this beauty shot.


p.s. actually floria 2010 was more colourful than uploaded pics,just blogged on odd stuff only.

Life Is A Juggle..

FatboySlim some of the iconic names in the music industries, especially in the dj-ing division. His unique music videos are to be reckon with. Here are some of his videos that has got me wondering,pondering,reminiscing and ing all the time.




Well this is what i can conclude from his videos in an uncanny way,imagine life is a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. They are Work, Family, Health, Friends and Spirit and you're keeping all of these in the air.

You will soon understand that Work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls-Family,Health,Friends and Spirit- are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed,marked,nicked,damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for it. Bottom line is no need to juggle lar....
