thou shalt not conform when thou could blaze thy own path..

different dimension..



last nite watched the 2 sis on tv. i woke up tis morn with blanket over me face.

coll sent me a link to buying tarantulas.

"tarantula are not companion.. there are merely another type display of pet. They kenot be like a dog.. u call then they come... then u rub run them.. u can't do that. it will stress them very much if u go kacau them... they might not bite you... but they might DIE...

if u wan a pet as an companion.. i suggest u better go for dog... they are man best fren... =)

or if u wan exotic pet as companion.... there is always ferret... ferret is very playful.. more active than a dog.. when they r in the cage, resting.. they see u come.. they will wake up and look at u... open the cage.. and they will come play with u... but ferret is still very much pricey cause rarely found here...

or u can take sugar glider.. but u need to buy a pair.. cause if only one inside the cage.. they will self depressed.. need to have a partner.. also very expensive.. but not as playful as ferret and they are shy animal...

hedghodge is cute when they are small.. but as they grow bigger... tak begitu cantik... not playful wan.. always sleeping wan.. price is of course less than ferret and sugar glider... " - extract frm article

interesting.

more interesting is the way one of the dude speaks. try reading tis, under the title Here is a simple guide for T beginner care sheet...

the way he talks, he sure knows his stuff. wonder how he's taking care of his kid one day;

CRADLE
size : shouldnt be too small - limit their growth rate,
IF too big, hard for them to move around. Only that reason.. so, big also nvm.. as long as they can GROW.
recommended : 10 inches apart frm their span size.
caution : They will always seek way to get away. remember that ur air hole must be enough for them to breath. THEY CAN SQUEZZE..and tried to escape..

HUMIDITY
For kids..pls do not put water cup inside their tank.. they might drown while drinking water.. just feed when appropriate, preferably 3 times a day.. check on pampers every hour.. kids hate water..
when they grow up.. then can change to water bottle.. or maybe a cup and saucer.
item can use :
<>1 yrs old ; bottle milk, especially those with handles and fine grip. carbonated drinks bottle cap, Jacob's biscuit TIN, panadol cap the one they sell in 10's wan.. those are not bottle.. hope u all understand what i meant.. give appropriate deep of water to appropriate age of kids.. important thing is dont drown them...

haha..farney.

last weekend went for kids program and there's another facilitator who's bf rears a pink toed tarantula named toothpick. she told me there's 2 types of tarantulas; ones tat avoid all height risk activities (they might die if fall, soft abs u see) while another's the opposite type. interesting. most tarantula's are not poisonous, and they got furry disposition.

the kids at the program were mostly adorable, aged from 6 to 13. it was at a farm, a homestay program.

at the farm, we learnt bout fishing and tieing knots, catching fish and sleeping outdoor, singing and playing with wet balloons as well as taking turns playing. i felt overwhelmed when all the 15 kids talked at one go, then u feel like the ground beneath where u stand starts to topple off slowly. while u tried to gain balance, u discover u'll need some time before u gained some authority over the kids, cos they r goin to scream either u like it or not. there are two kids which really made me felt like throwing myself to the walls and many times i blew my top off and i felt the boiling sensation up me neck. i need more meditative yoga courses in order to reach the state of nirvana in order to handle that 2 kids. one's got add prob, another first time away frm mummy's apron. so it's expectable la..i just need more exposure in handling kids.

i learnt kids are in a state of total movement, they need lots of activities to keep them still and interested. peace is not in their vocabulary and one must go thru a voice training to get thru to them. especially those high octave one; to keep an octave above them all and to interest them in the process of breaking a glass whenever u need to awe them or keep them shut a while.

sleep is the only time where u'll get some peace n quiet. every morn shuld check them for wet pants or smelt around for distinct smell. must always prepare some plastic bags for them to put their wet clothes. memorise their bags n belongings cos some of them dun remember their stuff. always remind the kids to stay off the edge of any ponds or rivers.

some practice in scowling and scary face is a plus. some tricks at the drop of a hat are handy. lotsa incoherent voices and mimics will make em love u. be ready to be hugged when the kids are scared.

lastly, remember kids are goin to be kids. tat it's only natural for them to run around and tat curbing their enthusiasm will only result in more headache. quiet kids are scary cos u dun know wat they r thinking, naughty kids are scariest cos u need to keep on checking on their whereabouts and they dun listen much. kids tat talks a lot are the usual breed, some kids can be a lot mature than their current age.

i learnt; acceptance is very much the precious commodity around kids. teach the kids to shake hands w newcomers, and the newbies wun feel so left out.

my regrets; one of the kids during the last day mentioned "nobody likes me". he needs more work on his pr, if i'm to go for the kids prog with him around next time, i'll appoint meself as his marketing manager. he's lots of potential.

in fact, i met a kid with his disposition long ago. used to tutor him but i lost my patience cos he lost his first. guess he's merely frustrated that he couldnt project wat he wants more effectively to the rest of the kids. i guess i need to understand wat izzit tat they want before i lost my patience. i need a lot of origami for the purpose. *sigh..

well..till next time. cheer on.
