the zoo

Let's go to the zoo, there's a lot of things to do.

that's how most of us will remember it.. the jingle from a KFC ad long before your time. gosh, am speaking like an old woman d! haha. It's one of those 'pupus-ed' item from my childhood days, where they made funny and SIMPLE cartoons. I'm not saying that the cartoons of today are not funny, but somehow a lot of it has lost the childish touch.. it either involves a lot of canggih acts or totally weird characters. To name a few of the canggih ones - Totally Spies, Powerpuff girls, Jimmy Neutron. and the weird ones - CatDog -a cartoon about a creature which is a cat on one end of the body, and a dog on the other end of the body. WHAT?? , Oggy & the Cockroaches - about a cat trying to chase away the few roaches in his house. gosh.. whatever happened to simple 'ol Mickey Mouse and Looney Tunes? Not that i don't enjoy the modern day cartoons, but somehow it is not as enjoyable as the ones i used to watch when i was young.

back to the zoo bit, I went to the Zoo on Sunday. it was a very last minute decision to bring SY there, it was just the 2 of us and Steve - he insisted we call him that. It sounded like a great idea when he suggested that we head to the zoo, for a more leisure outing, the fact that we had an extreme day in Malacca the day before. called ZhaBo and wanted to ask her along.. but... she wasnt up till 4pm..
the great idea turned bad when it started to pour while we were watching the animal show. The show went on and the crowd did not disperse till the end of the show. The actors for the day was a seal, and a sea lion. what's their differences? shall Google that later.
Was wet and hungry, that's when we decided to make a run for the fastfood restaurant in the Zoo. it was called The Wild.. and it was.. urghhh.. that explains all. what happened to KFC ? sigh..

All in all, it was an ok outing. the thought of visiting the zoo was nice, cos it has been a long time since the last time i was there. i think it was like a decade ago. but.. the maintenance of our Zoo Negara was a total disappointment.

After the zoo outing, we picked up Zha Bo from her house, - which she didn't know the address until 10 mins before we got there! gosh.. then we went to bandar menjalara for steamboat, satay, and siew kai yik. After the heavy meal, steve dropped me home first.. but.. the pasar malam in Kepong Baru caught our eye.. and the next thing we know, the car was parked.. and we went down for a walk. haha. SY was the happiest cos she stumbled upon this stall that sells dry coconut and she bought 6 packets ! hehe, glad we made that stop after all. Went home at 11+, showered and slept straight away. the next day have to work la...

thought of the day : what's the difference between a jaguar,cheetah,panther, leopard.. and a puma?
