寄居蟹的悲哀

Hermit crabs are decapod crustaceans of the superfamily Paguroidea.[1] They are not closely related to true crabs. Most species of hermit crabs have long soft abdomens which are protected from predators by the adaptation of carrying around a salvaged empty seashell, into which the whole crab's body can retract. Most frequently hermit crabs utilize the shells of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks. The tip of the hermit crab's abdomen is adapted to clasp strongly onto the columella of the snail shell. As the hermit crab grows in size it has to find a larger shell and abandon the previous one. ~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~** 寄居蟹屬於節肢動物甲壳纲十足目下的歪尾下目,而我们常说的螃蟹属于十足目下的短尾下目。 寄居蟹常寄居于死亡甲壳动物的壳中,以保护其柔软的腹部,故名。世界上现存500多种寄居蟹,绝大部分生活在水中,也有少数生活在陆地。更有一些寄居蟹不再寄居在甲壳里,而是发展出了类似螃蟹的硬壳,也叫硬壳寄居蟹,著名的阿拉斯加帝王蟹就是一种。 2008年的我,二十二岁。2008年的祖国,五十一岁。2008年“寄居论”的论者,不知今年贵庚。不过他的历史好像没读好,又或是他的记忆因年龄的问题开始退化了。五十一年前,祖先们还在为如何从英国殖民统治下解脱而伤脑筋时,大家不分种族,不分阶级地拟好方案,为独立的那历史性的一刻而努力着。独立后,没有任何先驱,为了抢功,而伤害彼此,发表类似是谁最先发现了这块资源丰厚的新大...

Pick Me up

it has been a week after I had cut the hair. Kinda short. Some said it looks pretty boyish. And some said it looks like a Standard 5 pupil. Anyway, I like the current hairstyle. Short and easily to look after. Photos might be uploaded later. though I am pretty sleepy right now, but decided to finish this post as I will not be able to update the bloggie that often in the next 3 to 4 months. The new semester is going to start soon. And most of the time will be occupied by all the assignments and work, I guess. went to church last Sunday. Many things have changed. Glad to see that, particularly it had been a long period that I never go to Holy Light Church. Then, had a date with Yee Jin at 2.30pm. We went to the Italian restaurant, IL GIARDINO to have the most recommended Tiramisu. it was obvious that our purpose is to taste the Tiramisu, but we ended up ordered one more dish, Pizza Four Seasons @ RM16.90. unlike the Domino's or Vivo's or Pizza Hut's pizza, Italian pizza is a...

Life is Food, Food is Life

by virtue of getting the sand of Langkawi from her, Xun and I had met up yesterday at CS. But she forgot to bring it ++". Anyhow, we had another mission to accomplish before she is going back to Perlis tonight. According to her research from JBTALKS forum, there is a newly-opened shop sells modern bean curd and dorayaki(Doraemon's favourite snack) 铜锣烧. Since Doraemon is one of my nicks, so I had decided to give it a try ++". the so-called modern bean curd is actually mixed of other ingredients and traditional bean curd. You can definitely make it at home. Bean Curd with Sweet Potato @ RM3.80 is one of the flavours of modern bean curd. And do trust me, do not waste the money as you can make it at home. Maybe it would be more tastier to make it yourself. Dorayaki with Apple Filling @ RM2.50 is the snack offered by the same shop. Disappointed over the snack as I had highly expectation on it. Doraemon's favourite snack, Dorayaki is not supposed to be like what they ser...

Indulges in Cakes

could not remember the very last time I went to Secret Recipe, but it is simply impossible to forget the taste of its cheese cake. couple days ago, went out to have the high-tea at Plaza Pelangi Secret Recipe. However, there is a fact that you are simply cannot indulge your taste for food when you are freaking hell poor. Anyway, food can spice up the life. Never allow the worries to ruin the taste of food, that is my principle. it would be odded for not trying the cheese cake when you are in Secret Recipe. And that is why I had ordered the Apple Cheese Slice @ RM4.50. obviously, the cake is comprised of a bottom layer of apple pie filling on a biscuit base and a thick-and-light-baked layer of cheese which is bread look-alike. The apples were cut into slices instead of cube shape. compared with McD's apple pie, I prefer the sweetness of Secret Recipe's. More suits my flavour as it was not too sweet. Perhaps I am not fancy the taste of sweet, it made me feel yucky after awhile....

Convocation

2008, 17th August 41st UTM Convocation 肺腑之言 热切期盼的日子终于到来。。。那一刻的心情却比想象中来的平静。少了感动的泪水,多了少有的沉着冷静,也许是等了太久,激动的情绪早已随着时间渐渐淡去。看着身上披着陈旧黑色外套,脚穿破旧黑鞋的兄长,与其他衣着靓丽的同届毕业生相比下,他就犹如一名古代穷书生,我们能给他的,也似乎谨此而已。 坐在礼堂内,望着成群的毕业生,我不禁幻想两年后的我是否也能顺利地穿上毕业服,戴上四方帽,骄傲地从颁奖人手上领过毕业证书,真正展开我的人生旅途。不为他人而活,只为自己生存,抛开家中大家长的身份,做一次自私鬼。 当天早晨的天气还算不错,每个人的脸上都带着笑容,老妈子也不例外。她没我想象中笑得合不拢嘴,但表情也难掩她内心深处的喜悦。瞧她买束花都没法拿定主意的样子,便知道了。 兄长终于毕业了!

The Favourite Athletics

wondered how much of surprise the BOG is gonna give me. Last night I had watched the LIVE telecast of women's Olympic team table tennis final match. A fantastic challenge between China and Singapore. But 'course the China team has clinched the title last night with the excellent performances. although knew that it is hard to defeat Wang Nan, still I chose to watch the match instead of the men's Olympic single badminton final match. Zhang YiNing, never know the name before yesterday's match. She is awesome and I must praise. The skills of playing and how stable she was while played with Li Jia Wei from Singapore have had completely attracting me. Not to forget, I love her smile. Just simply cannot wait till her single match which is near the corner. And wish her luck, by the way still remember the 16-year-old China gymnast, He KeXin? She is an uneven bars specialist. well, recently people are discussing 'bout the age of this little young lady. Is she 13 or 16? I have...

A Tragedy of Beijing Hopes

people have had put their hopes over him, a huge weight of expectation on him... Liu Xiang was pulled up after a false start and walked off the track. I think it would be the hottest discussing topic for today's Beijing Olympic Games aka BOG. he is not my favourite athletic. But, due to the real power of media, I wish to know more 'bout this guy. So I turned on the TV at 11.30am, to witness his ability in defencing the gold metal for 110 metres hurdles after the Athens Olympic Games 2004. Also, to confirm whether if he would be able to break his own world record this time. before the game was started, most of the seats in Bird's Nest were occupied by the local residents. That was what I watched from the TV. People were so excited and absolutely delighted. The cheers were all around the stadium. They were ready to watch Liu Xiang's performance. At the moment, I could really feel that how important he is in the depth of the local's heart. few minutes right before the ...
