A Kampung Life Experience (Part 1)

Today was lovely. After dropping my mum and Cik Azizah off at Causeway Point for their culinary course or whatever, Dad drove us sisters down to the Goat Farm at Kranji, I think? The thing I love about Dad is that he always brings us to experience new stuffs. Well, not always, but when we do get together, it's something new.

So, my thoughts on the goat farm? Phew, se-melly. But well, what to do? It's their nature, I think. Then again, smelly smelly pon ade gune nye jugak kan. Anyway, we spent like, 10 to 15 minutes there, walking around and just "admiring" the little goats. The baby ones are cute, I wonder if they have a special place for the adult goats to mate? Ohmygawd la, my mind.

New word of the day: Teat. Sisto actually thought the pink thing was called nipple, but we found out it was actually called teats. & I figured that's where the word "tits" came from. & goats have two teats! While cows have... four? Damn, I forgot already, but I know goats have two. The sign said so. Haha.

So, Dad bought two 200ml bottles of chocolate goat milk for us to try. We decided to drink in the car because there was aircon. The place, the whole damn weather was friggin' hot. But once inside, Farah threw up all over the car upholstery. I was the first to get out of the car, 'cause I was near the door. Dad carried Farah out, then closed the damn door, leaving Sisto in the car with the damn smell. I can't forget her expression. Haha. So Sisto and I washed Farah up (thank gawd there were two sinks there!) while Dad cleaned the car. After the whole cleaning thing, we sat at the sort of like a small canteen there, to drink the milk. Results:

It was quite nice. Dad's bottle had more chocolate flavour in it, making it a whole lot nicer than ours. It tasted a little close to that Magnolia Chocolate Milk that Farah likes. Just that, this one needs more chocolate flavour.

A lovely experience. My first visit at a goat farm, I was a little excited, though Sisto was even more excited than me, even though this wasn't her first visit. So I didn't really pay any attention to the goats' housing. Kate ACRES volunteer kan. *winkwink at Sarah* But I didn't liao, even though I noticed that they look so...... sad. Like they're having such a boring life. Sit all day for the next morning to be milked, then sit again for the rest of the days.

So this is part one of the day. Farah was high after she threw up. Like, damn hyper, even Sisto couldn't take it. Haha.
