This is "Trumpie", named so on the joyous occasion of him triumphing over all his siblings and living....
You can see the obvious joy and happiness he has derived from chewing on my pencil, a part of which is plainly seen hanging out of his mouth.. this pic was taken two months ago, when the suspect was romping on my bed and as he was on the verge of inquiring (and doing his best impression of "I'm a cute little baby rabbit" face) if he would be put back into his cage as a result of chomping on my fav pencil and my pillow :(
Yes, he can jump onto the bed.
Yes, he really DOES look so innocent.
No, in reality he most certainly is NOT that innocent.
And Yes, he is a villainous cunning rascal in rabbit's clothing.

The "happenings" continue...
The stupid kalawedda has been after my rabbit!!! :\ I shall turn him into a sausage if I get my hands on him!!
We had six rabbits but now it's just the one... This ONE was force fed by my mom when he was the size of an ant because HIS mom died. Anyways, now he's the king of our castle (house rather). So last night, mom had him in her room and he has spent the whole night trying to burrow into her stuff :D
Mom walked about like a zombie today morning.. he he..
Apparently rabbits mate for life, so once one of them dies, the other just starves to death and sorta walks about very lethargicly like, refusing to run or play or anything :[
PS : I would love to upload a pic of the rascal, only my stupid computer doesnt let on java popups :S
Visited the zoo, but returned feeling more down in the dumps... The animals all looked so sad and depressed.. There were several dumbos trying to give a cigar to the gibbons, so had to drag Darling off before he could punch them in the face :\
Really silly, bloody idiots seem to be loose in the country these days..
The old bear I remembered from teenage trips was still there, but looked rather forlorn and had this really sad look on his face. The tiger was lying on his back trying to look into the lions' cage through this tiny pipe hole in the wall. I think the linoess was pacing =D
I remember our family went once when I was around seven. There was this white deer in a cage in the ground, sorta lower than the usual ground height. I was enchanted with it, hanging over the bars, talking to it..... and the next minute he had gulped down half of my frilly skirt... and it was my fav too =)
And the lama snatched off my hat and my brother screamed thinking it was after my head (he was just four - which undoubtedly explains his affection towards me). And when we went to see the elephants and my bro said "Ammi... see... coconuts falling" :P yes..really!! and in very high pitched, small baby voice!
This time, the snakes were scary especially when I poked my head right into the glass to look for the python and it dropped down from the tree stump above O_O There was this gigantic tortoise and crocodile together, of which I managed to take a good pic, hanging over the railing with Darling hanging onto my waist in case he lost me, in these last stages of the wedding I guess.... hmmm... maybe he DOES love me }=>
There was an enooorrrmous crowd by evening though... But what I noticed was that most of the people think animals are dumb (when you could SEE the look of utter contempt the white deer gave you when they dropped a Popsicle in his cage!! - "Look what I have to go through, with these idiots") They seem to think its just FINE to point and jeer and poke things through the cages, although it says NOT to in large red letters just beside the cages !
The hippos' water trough was full of Popsicle wrappers, mango seeds, achcharu and unmentionable stuff.. And in the midst of all these, the two hippos were lying calmly in the water, with their foreheads leaning together... First, one rubbed his head on the other... then, the other leaned in... yep, i got a pic :D
The saddest part was watching the birds try to fly out and jam on the cages... The little squirrel monkeys run up and down and up and down and up the poles.... The sick wild boar snuffling in a corner.. The arapimas lamming into the catfish everytime they turn around....
And someone said "how easy a life they must have, getting food and water and just lying around...no need to go to office" ... Well.... I wonder which is easier....

Of happenings and sorts
Its funny how X knows Y and Y knows Z and A and B and C ......... and A knows Y and C and X knows B too =D small world .. hah??
Someone refreshed my view on life yesterday coz she really likes her job... just listening to her made my world seem nice :)
The blogosphere seems calm now too, maybe after praba's death =]
I think I blogged about this guy next to me who is an IDIOT.. well, he seems to think he is the salt of the earth and he smells and is really unhygenic and he orders people about even though he can't etc etc.. Another guy in office had got down a packet for his lunch and asked the cleaning lady to keep it in the cupboard. Seconds later the cleaning lady comes rushing in saying the a****** beside me has eaten the other guy's lunch without eating his... AFTER SHE HAD HIDDEN IT BEHIND A CUPBOARD !
(He had literally hunted it out and eaten it, even after she had kept his packet out for him??) Christ... PEOPLE are weird ={
Yesterday, an old lady was knocked over by an intercity bus in colpetty =( she had apparently said she was hungry after drawing her pension, walked into Perera and Sons, had some lunch, come out and tripped on the road........ and WHAM !!
Courtesy of cleaning lady : there had been blood and things (!) scattered all over the road...
My mother dearest had been rudely awoken last night and seen a loooong black tail hanging down the wall next to the kitchen door. Turns out it was a large kalawedda (wild cat), who "stared at me with HUUGGE eyes and slinked away after about 10 minutes" =D
Honestly ... my mother... * shakes head**
See ya...

To be or not to be
I have absolutely no idea what is going on in the blogosphere. I thought the main idea of blogging was to be able to vent your ideas?? That a blog is your private notepad, where you can let out steam??
Is this blogging or ego twisting of the advertising industry I wonder? The main point I have noticed so far is that many of the people who are snapping at each other seem to be or were advertising agency staff. Makes you wonder about even stepping into an agency or contacting them for some work hah?? (No hard feelings guys....please....)
It just seems to go on and on and on... Someone publishes a photo disclosing someone else, then someone else publishes details about someone else...and so on... Christ... I have never seen so much back biting and screeching as is happening in the SL Blogosphere these days.
People who want to blog anonymously should be allowed do that, while others can be public or whatever they want, right?? If you want to get high stats on your blog, fine... go right ahead... Just don't squash the others who are trying to let out a little steam in their day-to-day life. Sheesh!!! Get a life people!!!
If you want to publicly criticise each other and wash your dirty linen in public, why don't you guys invent a group or something and chat about it? What is the point in letting loose while hiding behind "anonymous"?
I started several blogs but could not really keep them going, due to my work and studies.... I started this blog with a firm commitment of carrying on, after DC left a comment one day. Thank you DC :)
The name was chosen mainly because I wanted to have something about my relationship and also because our names (my fiance and moi) were too long for a blog ID :D I have no problem in anyone knowing my real name as I'm sure some of you do. (thank you, all of you who have helped me in my queries)
I blog about things that catch my interest when ever possible, while checking out everyone else's blogs too. Many blogs have helped me get through daily issues, just knowing that everyone goes through the same thing... and many make me laugh out loud when I'm down in the dumps. Thanks guys!!
I truly hope that the people who have personal issues would sort it out amongst themselves.... I personally have no animosity with anyone of you. But it IS rather exasperating and also sad to see previously interesting blogs display personal feuds, which tend to pop up in my blog roll. (I am seriously considering deleting some of these, which would of course be a pity)
However, I guess ... you can take it or leave it .....
Good luck and take care
PS : I don't really care about my blog hits, just a couple of comments however, are appreciated. What I do love, is reading all your blogs; of course, without the hate and animosity..

Prada and the devil
Watched "The Devil Wears Prada" and loved it !!
Finally got an idea as to what fashion really means, together with an insight from the "Marie Clarie" .... Funny how everything seems to be part and parcel of each other....
Which movies do you guys think affected you in some way or made a change in your life??

Ban on private universities?
When you say " Powudgalika weidya widyala athhitawanu":
Does it mean your all for the posh rich buggers ONLY getting their degrees from overseas universities?
Or
Are you against the middle class earners being able to get some sort of education for their children?
Or
Is it because you think that only the very intelligent should be able to become doctors?
What others say :
