Random updates and Youtube Spam....

I has a cat.
I do.
I has had her for at least three weeks now.
So you see, I was walking back from a meeting with my storyboard supervisors one fine Saturday afternoon, script in one hand and KFC in another. Left the LRT station in Jelatek, trekked to a nearby bus stop to I could flag down an irate cab driver.

And what would come sauntering into the clearing but for a little kitten-chan? Now, she was a funny one. Didn't come yowling for food, or ran off, which are two top options for little cats. Her coat was a litle dirty sure, but this baby carried herself with pride. Not a stagger or a little hungry hop, but a leisurely saunter, like it didn't really matter to her that she was ekking out a living on scraps from the nearby mamak.
So what do I do? I put her on top of my books, give her some KFC and flagged down a taxi before she could scamper off to the main road. Sure, the guy wasn't very impressed with the extra passenger, but she was a nice girl. 

Her name's Amy (Amadea), and boy was mom ever unimpressed, but I got to keep her.
She's rather plain-looking for a Felidae, but she makes up for it in lots of charm. Really.
She likes destroying things with feathers, playing Russian Roulette with my roomate's bad-tempered bunny and sleeping in my lap when I'm wearing her favorite denim skirt..
I'd picspam my little pretty baby, but that'll have to wait for next post and when I can hog the camera away from my roomate. XDXD

So yeah. Came home a day earlier since mom and dad were dragging us off to Port Dickson for the weekend. Attempting to install Maya on my mom's laptop so I don't get left behind and all.
About two weeks left before final presentation. Hopefully I'll make it.

Earlier, I had a completely random discussion with a friend over the portrayal of dogs in syndicated cartoon series. See, every other animal on god's green earth seems to have a badass portrayal on the small screen. All that is, except for dogs. Maybe it's Disney. Hell if I know, but lookie here...


CATS


MICE


DUCKS


VARIOUS SMALL WOODLAND ANIMALS


Aaaaannnnndddd.....


DOG

Funny, really. I mean, I know Road Rovers, but something attempting to take themselves seriously for once would be nice.
That said, damn do I miss the eighties and nineties. People jus don't make cartoons like these anymore.
I remember waking up Saturdays to catch Sonic SatAM, staying up late so I could find Carmen Sandiego, out of bed early every weekday so I could catch up with the next adventures of those Blasted Ducks.
And while we're at it, Gargoyles.
GARGOYLES.
If neither of you are aqquainted with that name, or that series for that matter, stop reading and catch a few episodes on Youtube.
One of the, if not THE best animated series to have every come out from any company, and judging from the competition back then, that's saying a LOT.
Disney struck gold with this baby. it's a pity they were foolish enough to abandon it because it couldn't fight in head-to-head ratings againts Power Rangers.



And while we're at it, more gems from my childhood...


Got me interested in Egyptian Mythology.


Got me on the right track with Geography.


JUST BECAUSE.

I shall forever miss you, childhood.
May you still live in the heart of millions.
