Happy!

Miracle.... an Oriental Dwaft Kingfisher just fell off in front of me from nowhere! it's a migratory bird, guess it was too exhausted at that time. I can't explain the feeling, just imagine how many people would have the chance to hold a kingfisher without catching it with mist-nets :) I showed it to my lecturers and I guess they were happy with it, to actually see it alive I suppose! Took some pictures and then, I released it, I'm so happy today :)

Oh dear...

Finally I am back again, hehe.... went to Tumpat, Kelantan for about 4 days, it was wonderful! Went to some mangrove by boats, did birdwatching but not many birds there, did inventory, then... oh, also we did replanting of rhizophora, the seedlings were 5 feet tall! the place was so... oh my god, i was so stressed! not many trees, for some reason, the place was filled by dead trees and mud! I almost fainted because it was HOT! but overall, it was nice :) when we had free time, we went to Kota Bharu, and Pengkalan Kubor (Which I managed to go to Takbar, Thailand), Kelantan is a lot better than I thought, at least it is A LOT better than Terengganu, you have to see it before you judge it really. Last Sunday we went to Kuala Krau and Kuala Gandah, Pahang, it was a long trip. Went to see Gaurs and Elephants! so here I am, back to Terengganu again... did birdwatching this morning, saw some lifers :)

ahhhhhhh!

Let's see, I'll be going for YET another fieldtrip on Sunday (For a week!), in Tumpat (Kelantan), border of Malaysia-Thailand. Not sure what we will do there, but it's for the Mangrove subject, going to be fun supposedly, hehe... then going to see the Elephant a day after we come back next week, so so tired now.... much new? can always email (maj_gmcs@yahoo.co.uk) or message me via yahoo messanger :) Take care!

mm.... what should I do?

Ahh... yet another fieldtrip on sunday, for a week! We're going to Kelantan, for mangrove subject. not sure how it is going to be though, I'm so tired of fieldtrips now... One of my lecturers asked me what my plan is after I graduated (hopefully next year), I told him I'm going to get married! hehe... hell no! He asked me whether I am interested in doing Msc., mm... maybe, I'm still thinking about it because I might have to switch a bit, like more to lab works, about patogen or something like that, maybe like the bird flu thing, sigh... we'll see. If have grants, then I am pretty sure I will, not like I HAVE to get married :) wish me luck...
