Formalin...

Keep forgetting to order formalin.. "A saturated water solution, of about 40% formaldehyde by volume or 37% by mass, is called "100% formalin". It is a dangerous chemical by the way... huhu

Who Can Stand the Heat!

Few years back, the drought season is usually until the Chinese New Year (~February). However, nowadays it has gone haywire! I guess, finally there is a truth in this global warming thing... it's not warming, it's burning, haha

Weekend Trip to Aring, Gua Musang

It is supposed to be a few days trip but wrapped up in ONE day! Well, not much can be said about Aring as the whole area (thousands hectares of forest) has been turned into plantation. It is really a pity to see the destruction of these jungles for the sake of development. 

Visiting the Cekelat Master Hometown...

While waiting for Mirul to finish collecting the 'pok', we went to a place where the mastersianum was found along the Lebir River. It was an hour journey and the track was quite challenging. The bumblebee was stuck in the muddy track, haha. The river... well, I should come back here again for fishing!
