Spring Break Visit To New York State Buffalo Zoo

Zoo, most people think it is a boring activity; nevertheless, you get to see rare animals live instead of from televisions and computers. The Buffalo Zoo is located a distance away from my university, since we do not own a car we ride our way to there with public buses. What attract us the most was that there are polar bears in the zoo. The zoo is quite huge that we spent about 2 hours to finish the whole route under such a lovely sunny weather on that day.

Wait, where are the polar bears? What is that building on the first small photo? Well, we were disappointed that we could not see any polar bears in their compounds on our visit, nothing at all. Otherwise, it would be a wonderful visit. The elephants were kept in the building like the giraffes mainly due to the chilly weather or maybe some other reasons. Taking just the building because I did not manage to snap photos of them due to the glasses' reflection. Oh man!

Home Cooked Malaysian Dishes In University at Buffalo

A week of spring break was well spent with my Malaysian hometown buddies. Besides enjoying the escape from studying our courses temporary, we enjoyed cooking our hometown foods that pretty much reminded us that we are still not far away from home. Please do not look down on us, we are good cooks; moreover, majoring in cooking seems to be very interesting to me. What we had cook recently:
