Casey Cozy Home

My childhood's ambition was to become a ZooKeeper!!! Don't believe???

I'm telling the truth!!!

I told this to my mum many many years back & she told me that only foreigners become zookeepers cos the job is tough.

My mum was wrong.. Singaporean become zookeepers too cos they also love animals!

I went for the Docent (latin word for "teach") interview yesterday. It is a volunteer program organised by the Zoo.

A Docent's responsibility is to educate visitors about animal conservation.

Though being a Docent, my contact with animals won't be a lot but to be able to help those poor animals, I'm satisfied.

The best of all is the training program, I will have a chance to attach to zookeepers!!!! Isn't it great?!!!

After the interview, my classmates & I went to tour around the Zoo, Free-of-Charge! hee hee

We took a lot of pictures & saw a lot of cute & awesome animals.

I kinda like the white tigers, polar bears, penguins, meerkats, elephants....actually all of them!!!
Oh!!! EXCEPT that cockroach's relatives!!! made my hair stand just by looking at them! Yucks!

The most amazing "animals" I saw were the camouflage frogs, we took a long time to spot them! Superb camouflage skill...

The most responsible animals I saw were the meerkats, they firmly did their "lookout" duties despite our irritating disturbance. Salute!!!

The most huggable animal I saw was the polar bear, it was so cute when its white furry legs were above the water while diving into the water to catch the fish. So furry, so huggable!!! hee hee hee

The most disturbance act I saw was those irritating visitors who banged the glass windows to attract the attention of the animals. Please don't do that!!! You are disturbing the animals!

Visitors really need to be fully educated to treat the animals well. They are already very pathetic to be caged up, why add in their misery?

Question: What do you know about animal conservation?

Think about it....

"Compassion for animals is intimately connected with goodness of character; and it may be confidently asserted that he who is cruel to animals cannot be a good man." ~ Arthur Schopenhauer

Today, someone told me Love is a beautiful word.

I thought to myself, "Is love really a beautiful word?".

My answer is "No".

I told him, "Love is ugly" and "Love is hurting".

He told me that people have to learn to forgive.

I told him, "No! People have to learn self healing".

It's a cruel thing to ask for forgiveness when our wounds are still as deep.

People can only learn to forgive other people after all their wounds are healed...

however some wounds can never be healed...
