“Life and Death in Shanghai” by Nien Chang, is one of the best autobiographies I’ve ever read.
Nien Chang who worked for Shell in Shanghai was accused of being a British spy during China’s Cultural Revolution. She was imprisoned in the 1st detention house at that time for 6.5 years. Her daughter was killed by the Red Guards when she refuse to denounce her mother. Even after she was released, she still suffered from continuous harassment and intimidation from the people around her.
Not only that the author has fantastic English, her ability to re-exposed and describe every little detail of her tragic experience during the Cultural Revolution in China, has taught me a lot about the history of China. Her strong will for survival to prove her innocence is something we should learn from.
My and my hubby have just collected our pre-wedding photos and video. We went to RedBliss @ SS2. We really enjoyed the photo session, and the photos and videos turn up satisfiable too. Staffs service are undeniably at an excellent level. A strongly recommended wedding gallery I would say.
We’ve already uploaded those to our wedding page. You can check it out at: www.mywedding.com/sunnyandjessica. Feel free to leave us your wedding blessings at our guestbook. Enjoy…
When I was shopping at Sg. Wang Plaza, K.L few weekends back, I happened to come across some cute little decorationss. I did not realized that those were displayed items until I took a second glance. My goodness… they were merely cakes and sushi made of TOWEL. They looked so real. Price range was rather cheap too (RM20-RM70). If you’re looking for something special for birthdays, perhaps you should check this out!!!
Couple of months back, my little puppy, ‘Icy’ (White Miniature Schnauzer ) was sick. She discharges blood during urination. The problem lasted for a month until the second visit to the doctor suspected that it could be urinary tract infection. However, since it has been quite some time, we decided to bring her to the animal hospital in UPM. Upon X-Ray confirmation showing existence of a few stones in her bladder, we were directed to a private vet hospital in Brickfields (due to hospital bed were full for another 2 weeks).
We admitted her there for 3 days. The surgery was a success and the vet removed 4 big stones from her bladder. But, the cost is not cheap - about RM1k.
The stones removed from her bladder
Anyway, we’re glad she’s back home safely. She’s a little weak for the first couple of weeks though. But now, she’s definitely as active as she was before this.
Doctor had advice us take good care of Icy’s diet. Now, we have to avoid giving her any sort of doggy tit-bits (because it is extremely salty) and any human food except fruits. According to the some scientific source, small breed dogs such as (miniature schnauzer, pug, pekingese, yorkshire terrier) are more prone to bladder stones. So those of you my friends who have been keeping small breed dogs, remember to not give salty food to your puppies. Give them more water and encourage them to do lots of exercises. May your beloved puppies always stay healthy too.
I happen to received this shocking news today…The earthquake in CHINA was claimed to be human planned and caused by the HAARP weapon.
HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program), jointly funded by the United States Air Force, the Navy, the University of Alaska and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), uses large antenna to beam high radio frequency into the atmosphere. The energy created energy (in BILLIONwatts) by the HARRP antennas have the capabilities to destroying missals, modifying weather, and also lifting a portion of the outer atmosphere further up into space.
Just imagine the power of this destructive weapon, HAARP…Perhaps this is one of the most powerful modern-age warfare instrument.
Today, 6 June 2008 is the World Environment Day. Let’s us all do some part in this meaningful day. Little things that YOU AND ME CAN DO today:
1) Reduce plastic bag-If you are purchasing something from the grocery or the supermarket, try to not take so much of plastic bags from them. If the purchased product can be carried without a plastic bag - Just do it.
2) Reduce paper - Let’s just recycle the white paper that we are doing. Print on both sides.
3) Turn off the lights, PCs and other electrical appliances when you are not using it.
