Violeta, The Giraffe
PLAIN CUTE. Period!
Some time ago, I was invited (aka dragged) to visit the Singaporean ZOO. After being in South Africa and seeing all the animals in the wild, I decided i will not contribute to organizations that would keep animals in captivity and charge human beings to go and look at them. It is a concept that does not appeal to me at all.
However I found out this Zoo has a research centre for the animals and they cool stuff for them, so I went. yeah yeah yeah.
I saw many animals, and there were two things that I was impressed by:
- the roar of the lions. GEEZ! I would NOT like to be close to one of those kittens when hungry. NO NO NO
- the elegance and grace of the giraffes. AMAZING how tall and how gracefully they move.
I have just received a gift, and it is a GIRAFFE. Although the person that gave it to me says it looks like me, I decided it is a girl and her name is VIOLETA.
Everyone, Meet Violeta, my new teddy pet in my desk... she is sitting on the screen of the computer. Looking at me.
(Random posting, I know… but what did you expect on FRIDAY!? HELLO!!!!??)

Hello, Nacho! I would just like to say how cute Violeta is! I have just started my own collection of giraffes. I saw you and Violeta on the world-wide web as I searched for more giraffes! Send my regards to Violeta! Have a nice day!
