aliens!!!!a giant cricket, looks beautiful but sounds deadly!!

assalam 73 ere..

this cricket usually lives on trees in the rainforest, a friend handled the insect, it made a eardrum smashing sound like the clack things you spin on your hand but decibel is intense!!! look closely at it's back... there is the thing that clacks to produce sound. i guess it is the way the cricket protects itself.... hmmm how perfect is god's creation!!! masya allah!!!. look closely at it's wings which looks like a leaf... there are some jewels!!! i guess they like blings hehehhe...

side view of the cricket...it is as large as half of a jewel case of a cd.

look closely at the brown thing behind it's back, that thing vibrates your eardrums!!!

enjoy

surprise attack!!!

me, 52 and jr 312 was on our way home and when we reached home our cat was staring at something beside our garage.
then i realised it was a big snake!!! yep... a python... swamp python (ular sawah).
this was the most daring attempt of these snakes coming near our house... i think it is the 3rd time i saw a snake near our house... other than that is huge monitor lizards (biawak).
sadly i didn't bring my n80 and any camera. so i borrowed another phone which is a Nokia flip model which i don't know... anyhows hope you like the pic.
picture taken when the fire department came and asked for a big bag to carry the python which i consider is medium sized.imagine the snake won't fit an ordinary 10kg rice bag.

ramadhan....a month of cleansing..

assalamualaikum 73 ere...

it's been the 8th day of ramadhan i think it was just like yesterday...
yep, yesterday when we all were eating and drinking..
brings me to think of "them" who doesn't have food and water...
think of the famine in the world... alhamdulillah my country is ok...

yes for me ramadhan is the month of cleansing, the month of knowing your roots..
knowing and setting the limit of not just dieting... but in all aspects,
it is the month of knowing if you are a true muslim,
knowing you don't really need the materials in this world to survive..

the sad ending is when ramadhan leaves...
i'll miss this month every year though....
it was in these pure month i had bitter events...
but i realise god is with me...and he wants me to see everything.

alhamdullilah. wasalam
