Zoo

I went to the zoo with Xiaoqian Xiaoshi Amanda and Chris (A's bro) hehe
Elephants are my favourite animal, and we got to watch the show + feed them + ride them hehe. The ride wasn't that interesting cuz it was too protected with the cushions. I would much rather sit on their bare backs although it might be a little painful (their skin is so rough) and dangerous hahaha.

Recently I watched a video of how some people in Thailand mistreat the elephants in order to get them to work. The video showed how they stab the elephants with knives/ repeatedly beat them with sharp spike-like metals. The elephants were bleeding, but they were forced to perform even though their injuries weren't fully recovered yet. It was so excruciatingly painful to watch...... And i was wondering why the elephants didn't wanna fight back. Clearly they're way stronger and larger. Just stomp on those bastards la their intestines confirm fly out.

I watched the performance and it seemed like the elephants had a friendly relationship with their trainers, so I was really glad hehe. I wonder if they'll be happier in the wild though.

The elephant threw his trainer's hat away hehe so cute. But then he went to pick it up and placed it right on his head.

Can you just look at the state of my nails/ skin around my nails. I forgot when I took this, but I have this really bad habit of peeling my skin/ lips whenever I'm in deep thought/ feeling nervous/ feeling stressed.
It's MUCH better now though, my nails look pretty. My lips are still damn chapped.... Help? I can't seem to stop.

I wanna visit the night safari soon. 18 years of living in this country & I've never been there once hahahaha.
