glowfish



i'm not really into genetically-modified food and stuff, but isn't this really amazing??
(see story: A Taiwanese company has created a genetically modified (GM) ornamental fish that glows in the dark)

this reminds me: i was surprised to realise, after talking to a couple of friends, that few have actually ever seen fireflies (or what some people call glow worms) in the wild.

a friend of mine recommends the following nearby (johor) places to spot them. if you ever have a chance, go see them. it's really worth it - definitely one of nature's most spectacular and magical shows (was planning to keep these places a secret but good things have to be shared, eh? :))

Kota Rainforest Resort
Tanjung Piai - also "geographically the southemmost tip of the Asian mainland"
Desaru

Location: Ya Kun Kaya Toast (Shenton Way)
I noticed that the two slices of kaya toast I ordered were of slightly different sizes. Pondered on which one to eat first. Decided to eat the larger one first. Carried on reading my book after that.
