Whales eat Whales ~ Shocking Truth!!`

All along I thought whales despite their enormous size feeds on tiny creatures like plankton or krills..

I am shocked to find out today after watching the 1st episode of The Blue Planet that killer whales not only kill warm-blooded animals like fishes and seals.. they also kill turtles, otters, penguins and polar bears (all very cute animals to me)

Most importantly they kill whales!!! The 1st episode of The Blue Planet shows them killing a baby whale.. despite the mother frantic attempts to protect her baby whale.. there is practically nothing much she can do.. especially when the baby whale have no more energy to swim...(and the killer whales just keep chasing)...they tried to drown the baby whale by pushing it underwater so it cant breathe and the mother frantically try to support it above water.... and then one of the killer whale took a bite and the baby whale is dead....

Goodness.. how sad the mother is... she is pregnant with the baby for 13 months.. (that's what i thought i heard and remember - need to be checked).. and now that her baby is dead, she will have to carry on the migration journey alone... arghhh..

Anyway the killer whales after killing the baby whale only eats the lower jaw and the tongue.. then they swim away and leave the body of the baby whale floating in the middle of the water until it sinks and become the food of others in the deep ocean...

And the best thing of all, killer whale is the type of whales shown in Free Willy.. and the same type that we see in big aquariums.. alamak.. they kill whales for goodness sake...

Dinner @ Long Beach Seafood Restaurant IMM

Yesterday me and dar went out for dinner with my parents, my bro and his gf to Long Beach Seafood Restaurant at IMM. Waited for dar to finish his RT before we drove with a carful of people in baby pica to IMM.. hahaha.. dun think baby pica is built to carry 4 people in the backseat. Thanks god me and Hui Teng are skinny.. hahaha

Anyway I didnt make any reservations because I thought there isnt any people.. in the end we were put onto the waiting list.. haha.. the hostess told us to come back around 8pm.. if not she will call me but in the end when we finished window shopping and made our way back, there was plenty of seats and no calls.. duhz..

1. Twin Combination Platter (jellyfish with abalone and roasted duck)
2. Shark Fin with Crab Meat in Superior Stock
3. Golden Stripes Lobsters
4. Chilli Crab
5. Steamed Garoupa
6. Dried Scallops with Spinach
7. Fried Glass Noodles
8. Pulau Hitam with Icecream

Dish 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 and 8 were good... in fact the fish was so good that even my dad who seldom eat steamed fish finished up the entire side by himself.. hahaha.. but dish 3 Golden Stripes Lobsters really sucks.. I actually wanna to change to Lobsters in Soup or something.. at least the taste of the lobsters will still be there.. but the captain said that is their main signature dish so i decided to stay with it.. in the end the lobsters were dry and chewy..

The chilli crab should be good la.. but because i think the kitchen is in the rush to go off work.. they came out with all the dishes at one go.. including the chilli crab.. so by the time we had it after finishing all the rest of the dishes, it is already cold.. what a waste...

The entire meal costs me $380+ bucks.. but I think it is worth it la..after all my parents seldom get to enjoy such luxuries...

Unlucky gal..

Once a fortune teller told me.. i am a bad mother in law in my previous life who poisoned and killed my own daughter in law.. thus this life i have to suffer and pay back my debt.. the only way I can redeem myself is to do more good and be a vegetarian.. I tried being a vegetarian before but i did it only for full 3 weeks (lunch and dinner was all tofu & vegetables.. got so sick of tofu after that).. I tried being a vegetarian on every 1st and 15th of the lunar month. but in the end i did not have any determination and pesistance to continue it for the entire of my life..

And I think I am indeed punished for whatever I have done in my previous life (although thank god I am born a human and not a beast)

I got scoliosis when I was young.. and for the rest of my life now.. I have to carry two metal rods which is screwed into my spine in my back... even though i can still walk, run, swim, talk, hear like normal... (already much better than others and i am gladful for that).. I have to be on my guard becoz even falling down the stairs in the wrong way can kill..

And now I have a suspicious lump in my breast... went for a breast biopsy called Mammotome today to remove the lump so they can send it to the lab to test whether the lump is cancerous.. the operation was only for half an hour.. they give me anesthesia to numb out the breast area where they are going to do a small cut and insert a probe/needle.. other than that I am pretty conscious.. you know something is going on.. you know there is a wound and a needle poking into your breast.. it is just that you dun feel the pain.. how great.. i rather be knocked out.. by alcohol or whatsoever.. just let me sleep throughout so I wun know what the hell is going on..

Anyway i went through the entire thing and now i am back at home with a swollen breast... and pain.. I seriously have quite a high threshold of pain.. but i just hate the pain that comes after anesthesia beooz it is those that really got you off guard.. it is like a while you are okay.. the next thing u know u have pain in a area when you know you never even hit or cut yourself in.. the nurse asked me to take panadol if the pain is really intolerable.. but I think i rather try and survive through it.. and live with it... you know why? Pain is something you can get used to.. as in if it is very painful the first day and you survived through it without any medications.. you will feel less painful the next day.. but if you take medication to numb out the pain.. you will still feel the pain the next day and the whole cycle of pain and medication will continue until the wound heals.. which is not really advisable.. relying on painkillers and panadol.. So i am just going to make do with it.. and hopefully tomorrow will be better

The best thing is the doc gave me 8 days MC!!!! I was damn surprised to look at my MC and see the number 8... i looked at dar and went "they give me 8 days MC lei.." and he went "huh!! really ah" while looking at me in disbelief.... hahaha.. In normal circumstances.. i think anyone holding on to a 8 days MC will go WOOHOO!!! For me.. my reaction is more of.. "for what??"... Siao.. 8 days of nua-ing at home.. with no nice TV shows to watch, no holidays to go, no websites to surf, no games to play, no shopping to do... just wake up eat sleep wake up eat sleep will drive me BONKERS seriously... I remember previously when i plucked out my wisdom tooth i got a MC of 5 days.. in the end i only utilised dunno 1 or 2 days then i went back to work... 8 days lei... what to do...?? Damn it.. if I know i will get a 8 days MC i can rest for 3 days (as specified by the nurse that I shouldnt move much for 48 hours after the opp) then book a 5 days trip... damn it.. that would be such a great plan!!!! After all I have 14 days MC which 8 days will make full use of half of it..

Wasted.. damn it...

What if I have cancer??

I seriously havent thought of that qns.. but there are some things in this world you will never know..

Watched a show in the morning and the female lead got cancer in the 3rd stage.. doc told her that she only have 3 months to live.. . treatment will only be to prolong her life not to cure... and she is the typical female lead who live her life happily and positively.. but such things got to happen to her... (typical of drama serials)... she decided to keep her illness to herself, didnt tell any of her best frenz including the one she love.. and she started finishing off whatever she need to do.. like handing over her business... spending time with her parents... telling her frenz to be happy etc...

And I thought to myself.. if I have cancer, what would I do??

Surely if it can be cured, I will go through any means to cure it.. but what if it cannot be cured?? What if it is already at the last stage?? Would i tell my frenz, my parents, my husband?? I remembered when i was in poly, our lecturer posted a similiar qns... what would you do if you are going to die?? I think everyone in the class said they will not tell the truth.. neither would they choose to hold on to the one they love.... i was the only one in the entire class who insisted on getting married to the one I love.. in order to fulfil my last wish... and it resulted in a debate between me and my classmates with regards to how selfish I am to hold on to the one I love even though I am dying...

Thinking about it now.. yes it is selfish.. what is my husband supposed to do after my death.. how sad and painful would it be for him to suffer the loss of his wife right after marriage....how long will he take to recover from the pain.. will he be able to move on in his life and marry someone else??

Would I have the courage and determination to keep it to myself and bleed internally by doing so... knowing that I wun be in this world, knowing that there is so many things that i havent get the chance to do, knowing that I wun be able to see the one I love, my parents and my frenz anymore... I still have to put on a false front and pretend that there is nothing going on... only to have all of them attend my funeral a few months later?? Would the hurt be there too??

Would it hurt more to tell or not to tell? Would it hurt more if I choosed to leave quietly with noone by my side?? Would it hurt more to see everyone in pain knowing that I will be leaving soon?? I wonder what my grandpa was thinking when he was lying on the sickbed struggling for his life?? Does he feel very upset to see everyone around him in pain and unhappiness because of his illness and yet there is nothing he can do... it seriously hurt to see him in pain but there is nothing i can do for him... to see his illness deteriorate day by day..at the beginning he still managed to cover up his pain and console me that everything is alright (even though I know is not..).. i guess at that point all he wanted was to spend more time with everybody while he is conscious.. but as he get worse.. he can no longer cover up his pain and it hurts everyone to see him in such great pain but there is nothing we can do to lighten it for him... at that point I think he can no longer recognise anyone... or perhaps he can but there is just no way he can express it to us.. if his mind is conscious.. i am sure lots of things are going through his mind... things he should have done.. things he shouldnt have done... I dun want to go through the same thinking process... because I know I still have alot of things i havent got the chance to do and fulfil...

So would it be better to die straight away or would it be better if you know ahead of time how much time you have left.. perhaps the latter might give you the chance to complete what you want to do... but the first option leave you without a choice at all.. neither do you have to go through the thinking process.. but the latter let you go through all the pain.. to see the pain ard you too... and most probably there will be so much things to do and you just cannot do enough then... for ex: you wanna spend more time with the one you love and your parents but you do not have enough time to do so...

Death is a natural thing in life.. one have to go sometime.. but how and when is the thing that people are scared of.. not death
