I got bitten by Centipede (Lipan)


This is the suspected convict only that the one that bite me a bit smaller (far more smaller actually).

This is what that thing left me. A red dot of mark that is itchy once in a while

Moral of the Story:
1. Always wear safety gloves when you do gardening especially in damp area like drain or decompose area. Its the mansion of these kind of insects.

Friendly Reminder:
I might become centipede woman!

Blooming Days

  It rains heavily these few days, the only thing that plays in my mind is my bed and the comfort of my blanket. I love the smell of wet earth after rain and the fact that my plants blooming at the first kiss of sun after rain.

this is the first day of raining
2nd day, blooming

my red chilies

fuschia daisy
(the leaves being eaten by caterpillar or maybe garden snail I guess, bad snail!)

Note: delightful!

I Got Summon From MPSJ

Do you know that we can't place garden refuse by the road side? Garden Refuse means leaves, tree, branches or anything from your garden that you want to get rid off. I didn't know that, because as far as I concern I am helping people. Maybe some people wants to use it as fire starter for barbecue or as a compose. So I did what a normal people would do, just place it by the roadside so other people that need it can help themselves to it. And next thing I know, two MPSJ (Majlis Perbandaran Subang Jaya) officers issued me a summon letter.
Sigh....
