I find it damn amusing. I found out lately that my blog is also read by,
- Marine turtle conservation group
- WWF people
- Eco-system students
- Turtle / tortoise / terrapin lovers
- "I'm part of a group of people working towards the conservation of said species..."
Thank you, people. Thank you for bringing up the awareness. Because I'm sure not Everyone who reads hotpinkchili knows that Terrapins are one of the endangered species that should be given extra attention to.
Now that I ate it, told the world, thus made some people upset... I'm glad my blog managed to surface some awareness, and I do hope the buying will decrease (if not stop), and that the killing will too. (:
However..........,
I'm not sure how a simple blog ramblings about the Life of a girl chasing her dreams could turn out to be a big war zone, even when it comes to a subject of a reptile. Why???
People love making a Big Deal out of the littlest thing I do. Having said that, I would also love to believe that I'm born with it then; whether you like it or not.
You know what? To the energy wasters out there hating me, it's time to Just Swallow It. And I'm sorry about that; cuz' there's nothing you can do about it! Tell me, tell me what cannn you do? You don't HAVE to HATE me when you don't even KNOW me, you know??
You can say I'm normal, I don't

I can tell you now that -

RIGHT!
I am just like you.

BUT.
here YOU are,
reading MY blog!
WHY SO???
here YOU are,
reading MY blog!
WHY SO???
Because Tey Cindy is SO Ordinary? But everyone is special, my dear children. No one is a Nothing. It just depends on how much you want to make SOME thing out of... YOU! And once you made it, it doesn't mean you are any different~ There's nothing to be proud of; cuz everyone HAS a chance, but perhaps their time just hasn't arrive yet. That's all!
& Now ain't that funny cuz I wouldn't even bother dropping by a blog whose owner belongs to somebody I hate!!! And may I ask, WHY are you here? To give personal attacks? Go AWAY and do something more USEFUL! Or go hate yourself~ I don't know! SHOOOOOOO~~~!
Let me quote some of my readers here. I took them from my comment box, and I find em' quite funny or more so,,, interesting.
"acsmvtak: If you really wanna protect the wildlife, dont waste your time commenting here, better make use of your precious time to set up a forum and join WWF instead. Every single damn min counts u know...turtles are dying !! quick !!! shoo shoo shoo"
"simplyfelicious: people will be more willing to listen if we were less harsh with our comments and more constructive."
"YAP: seek where the problem starts b4 accusing sum1 of having no education on endangered species... u cant jus blame consumers for the whole problem... ;)
so it'll be great that both sides start doing sumtin bout it instead of dropping 'not very nice comments' about anyone... it's good to voice out... but it shud be more constructive..."
so it'll be great that both sides start doing sumtin bout it instead of dropping 'not very nice comments' about anyone... it's good to voice out... but it shud be more constructive..."
"the return: ...In this however, make no mistake that we are ONLY exclusively singling out Cindy for comment."
You don't swear an oath for turtles by mocking me! There are many forms of love, and in this case its for animals, right? But if love is expressed in a way of mockinggg, do you still call that "l.o.v.e"? Nooo! You just hate me, that's what it's all about! LOL
Alrighto~ I found an area which sells nothing BUT cooked terrapins. Here is a ROW of shops filled with their smell.
Foon Kee, Ming Kee, Ah Kee, Turr Keee... meh~
That was and would be the last time I consume terrapin meat. And to those who are curious to try, there is no need to really. Because frogs taste better. Ha Ha Ha...!
BOOMMM~!!!!!
No la, seriously, this is what I think. To Quote the return,
I totally agree with that statement. Well, there will ALWAYS be people who wants to try. (Hello? The world is so BIGGG!) That's human nature; you can never kill curiosity or stop an urge completely. Now now, don't be too upset about it tho... cuz' there will also ALWAYS be people who wants to RESTORE the damage. What goes around, comes around, doesn't it? (=
I'm just gonna be fair. You can "boom~!" me if you want. I honestly, think that it is O.K for people to eat what they wanna TRY, but that's IT. A taste. You can't live your life wondering how it tastes like IF that BOTHERS you.
But let's approach this matter in a more CONSTRUCTIVE way towards anyone who endangers the lives of extincting animals. We might not be able to CHANGE the World, but we are here, because we CAN make a Difference.
"What you do for the environment WILL come back to you in one way or another. This is not karma, this is the way the environment works."

Hi Cindy!
ReplyDeletealways supporting u...
Dont worry...
i bet noone can breaks u down..
they're just full of jealousy and hatred....
because they cant achieve what u have achieved now..hehe...
You r winner
er..dowan comment bout the one who want to save turtles..but want to talk about the labi-labi. I've seen it being sold somewhere but never tried it. Grandma don't let say what these turtles can live up to 100 years old la..eat it will be very cruel la..so never get to try it..In fact, she used to stop us from taking gui ling gou until she found out gui ling gou nowadays are of herbs. If not, die time also never eat gui ling gou before.
ReplyDeleteI cannot eat such er..extraordinary stuff la..I don't eat frog as well. Geli.. Personal preference. Don't think I'll ever eat labi-labi cause, they are turtles leh!! My friend has a pet turtle. Cannot bring myself to it. And tried frog once, sedap but the thought of it. I cannot eat it. T.T
so let eat some exotic dinner? me n u?
ReplyDeleteYou deserve everything for putting up so much to being where you are now... so, don't worry too much abt the comments :)
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Haha, ur style of writing could perhaps make u the next Xiaxue. Im not saying u r acting like her, but you both have the special kind of characteristic which is attractive yet annoying sometimes. No harm. Just a comment. ;) Keep up ur cool girl! I love ur energy n spirit inside you.
ReplyDeleteMan, you just said a bunch of trash... Bla bla bla bla non-stop and the bizzare thing is it's English and I read the whole post and have not had a clue what you were trying to say... Just pure rubbish.
ReplyDeleteGood for you who enjoy your so called "exotic" dinner. Hope they are not too many people like you in this world. God blessed!
lol, dont bother degrading urself to the level of retarded people :/
ReplyDeleteThere are many people who choose to hate you without knowing you, but remember there are also many more people who love you for who you are. I'm one of them! - Your friend!
ReplyDeleteCin, there are many people who choose to hate you without knowing you, but remember there are many others who love you simply for being you!
ReplyDeleteI'm one of them! your friend!
Well, why bother wasting your time/ energy/ space to fight back? there's no single need to..people can say whatever they like and still, it won't make a diff even when u post another blog..
ReplyDeleteAnd when they see you fight back and stuff, it'll just make them even...happier cause they finally got the attention they want by clinging to someone famous/happening..
just ignore them =)
Well said Cindy! =) People are thinking that i have something personal against you which is why i went all turtle-crazy the last time. But i don't. I really don't..
ReplyDeleteAll the best Cindy
Haha ~ Kinda funny, I mean the commentssss.. You guys remember the BM phrase " katak di bawah tin milo" haha LOL. Well cindy cindy... Chill la.. Just ignore them, thats wat I can say. The more you say, the more they get excited! And I don't know what is wrong with all the eating labi-labi and abt the English accent! Like the current video loaded online, abt Gavin proposing Fiona, why people MUST comment on the accent???!!! I just don't understand!!! They should really open their eyes and see how big the world is!
ReplyDeleteI don't like the asli malay accent also. But, I don't comment, instead I feel shame because I can't talk like them as a Malaysian. And so,if you dun like cindy so much, then why you wanna see her blog, why you wanna comment, why you wanna care if shes dead?????!!!!! Thats the fuss you wanna make rite? LOL ~ The bad comments will not influence her and should not cindy!!!
Keep going!
You are what you eat. Eat terrapins & you'll live to a 100. Eat frog legs & you'll jump to wrong conclusions --- like being voted as MDG winner means that you're the best model!
ReplyDeleteCindy, we thank you for putting in a good word for marine turtle and terrpin protectionism. We never realised that you were the winner of some competition but now that we have, we have a favour to ask of you. In your position of influence and prominence, your potential to effect a change in those that read or listen to you is far greater than we can ever imagine.
ReplyDeleteKeep fighting the good fight as we all are.
Oh, it'll be great if you can sign Dr. Chan's petition online at the TAMY website and if you can get your friends to sign it, that'll be even better.
I think I understood some of what you wrote - I guess I don't understand Malaysian-english much.
ReplyDeleteI find it pretty gross and cruel to eat turtles and terrapins (sp?), but then I'm sure vegans think it gross and cruel to eat anything but vegetables and legumes and the like.
It's more the killing of endangered creatures for human enjoyment that's awful, uncalled for and unacceptable.. not so much what they are.
Go forth and eat reptiles that are farmed for food.
Cindy Tey. You ate terrapins, and now you are wondering why people make big things about the littlest things you do. First of all, the eating of frogs, deer, rabbits, terrapins...ALL this exotic shit..WHY?? We already have global warming putting the polar bear on the endangered species list..Let your stomach not be the reason to diminish another lineage of fauna.
ReplyDeleteNow, I have to tell you something. I read your blog everyday after you won. You know why? Because I think you have made a cyber-enemy in me. I hate you. I hate your face, the way you talk, the way you type, the way you make the letters small and big and ARGH...almost everything about u pisses me off. THEN you went and WON MDG, with your daddy's 15k. Not just that, you JUST DONT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE THINK YOU ARE LIKE THAT! EVERYTIME i check your page, there is SOMETHING that is just f*****g wrong! TODAY...I SEE CINDY'S EATING TERRAPINS...but she wants to shed light on protecting it?!?! But she ...wtf la CINDY WTF..u are ONE HUGE MESS.
I mean WHAT THE....F**K ARE YOU ON ABOUT?!?!?!?!?!??!??
U ate it, ur sorry, now u want to protect them?? U know hardcore fanatical wildlife protectionists would think the devil of you for just THINKING About eating it....now that u've gone and digested it...ur a goner
BY THE WAY, IDIOT...BAD ENOUGH you ATE the freaking turtle...YOU HAVE TO TAKE PICTURES OF THE FREAKING SOUP, THEN THE FREAKING TURTLE?!?!?!?!?! I MEAN WHAT KIND OF A SADIST ARE YOU?
ReplyDeleteit's one thing to TRY something for the first time, NOT "INDULGE IN SOMETHING RARE"
SOMETHING RARE....OMG OMG OMG
F**K cindy...are u retarded???!?!
TO the group that wants CINDY TO ..UMM...i dont even know man I'm so lost i feel like I'm in the twillight zone...So you want Cindy (the turtle eating mdg) to support the preservation of ur turtles?

F**K girl....grow some brains man..

hahah...people are like that la. u eat dog meat, they say u cruel, you eat biawak pun cruel..then what abt chickens and cows and fishes and geese? eat them also considered cruel ar? or just because they are not endangered so can eat them?
ReplyDeletecomplain complain complain...

Fucking dig a hole and bury yourself and never come out, save the next generation from any of your offsprings....because you are one retarded-linguistically challenged- socially in-apt - eye sore of a bitch.

Something wrong with the OOH, why does he/she bother your everything ar....Hey, OOH....what's wrong with you ar..? IF YOU DON'T LIKE CINDY, JUST DON'T SEE ANYTHING RELATED ABOUT HER LA...WTF...

C'mon la ppl...its her life let her be...why wanna call her names and bring her down? jealous of her for being at the top? chill laaaa...i clearly know she's a public figure now and must show good example and all. But she's still a human isnt she? give her a break!
F**K girl....grow some brains man..
ReplyDeleteMan if you dont leave my comments on your blog, i'll take it somewhere else man..and BELIEVE me....it can be SO shit for you.
OMG GOODNESS !!! hey OOH are u seriously that childish ar? Do u have a LIFE? you are so so so damn LOW man...i am totally speechless when i read your comment. Its beyond words. Im not sure if you're a GIRL OR A GUY but if you're a GUY. seriously dude, you're either gay or and ugly fuckface with no girlfriend, and if u do have a girlfriend, i so damn PITY her to have such a "pondan" boyfriend with a "pondan" mouth!....on a another hand, if you're a GIRL, than its quite understandable because you're just PURE JEALOUSE! shame on u.
acsmvtak. another controversy arises. Why must someone saying something bad make them gay or pondan?
ReplyDeleteChoose your words wisely dude or risk looking like atypical uneducated Malaysian college goer who thinks that the world owes them a favour just because they're rich. Oops. too late. that's what you probably are. Quit it with the gay-slurs already.

Hey cindy, keep on going, i know u can do it!!
ReplyDeleteDon worry, there is still alot of ppl supporting u, those anonymous or ppl that give bad comment are jst ppl that jealous u because they cannot achieve what u had achieve and they do not have what u have.
I jst don understand why they still come here read ur blog and comment, jst a waste of time and shame on them.
All the best Cindy!! Go..Go...Go...
Long time never eat sui yue already. It's endangered species? Then why there's no action taken against the seller?
ReplyDeletethis isn't an angry comment, but more a matter-of-fact one.
ReplyDeletecindy, when you joined MDG, i am sure you definitely knew you would be in the public eye, and part of that includes being constantly judged by people.
not everything you deem as an adventure/personal choice will go down well with people.
it's nothing new that celebrities these days are deemed role models for young impressionable kids/spokespeople for causes, and the media/public lash out at bad role models like lindsay lohan and paris hilton for DUI.
closer to the issue on hand here, jennifer lopez, i believe was blacklisted by her peers and PETA for wearing fur. i could be wrong about the facts, but i vaguely remember reading it the papers.
my point is, if you want to be in this industry for long, you better stop thinking you can get away with "personal choices". because at the end of the day, you don't get any bookings if you are not likable by the public, no matter how talented you are. i mean, no brand is going to get you to endorse something if everyone is going to boycott the product, right?
no matter what, this is an asian society. we are more conservative. for example, paris hilton turned her sex scandal into a lucrative deal. but what about the girls involved in the edison chen sex scandal? they are not doing so well if i am not wrong. some got dropped by their endorsement deals/shows they were supposed to be in. that should give you an indication of how the industry is like here. so cindy, you really need to give more thought, and watch what you say.
Hey Anonymous, Why did u get so uptight bout me calling OOOH a gay? why? are u gay yourself? hahaha. U calling me a typical uneducated malaysian is bad enough. BUT i am not gonna get all mad or upset or even angry, because i am not like u or OOH. I do have a life u know and not as childish as some of u too.
ReplyDeleteJust to clear things up, i am not a malysian college goer btw, my dad is just like Cindy's dad, our dads have money to sent us overseas, our dad love us so much that they are willing to go a mile to see us happy. Isnt what all parents do? love and support their children?So whats so wrong about that la? Call us rich spoilt brat...we really dont care u know!
acsmvtak = educated bum?
ReplyDeletejust be careful what u blog about next time, dont give people a chance to attack u ok?
ReplyDeletelesson leartn
dun feed those freaks what they want to hear, show them ur happy/sunny side
kill theM!
i noe a lot of ppl mention already, but the soup picture made me feel so sick. you may have no love for animals / pets / turtles, but other people do, and your blog is public, which means you want people to read your posts. and if people who happen to read your posts read about the annoying things you're doing, why blame them for saying something? it's like watching some old man torture his pet dog but not saying anything about it. and you people are like saying,"hey, if you don't like it then don't watch la!" a bit ridiculous right? anyway that was just an example, but there are a lot of other things about you cindy that just doesn't go down too well with other ppl, and although you may say most of these flamers are not giving constructive criticism, but just the amount of them saying all these things day after day after day, doesn't that make you wonder why? think about it, if EVERYONE is saying you're like this and this and this, does that mean they are ALL wrong and you're right? however if you know what you are doing wrong but still chose to act as thus, then i having nothing more to say to you, except that maybe you should start considering making your blog private la, unless you want to deal with this kind of shit everyday.
ReplyDeleteJust had frog last night for supper! they are good for skin i heard...the wonders of an ugly frog :)
ReplyDeleteei, really cindy. how does it taste haaa? hahaha! don't care what other people think ler, there is always people don't like one another.. so yeah! hugs!
ReplyDeletemiss c>> It's sad that you didn't enjoy the turtle / terrapin that you ate.
ReplyDelete"as clara is : jesus! i didnt eat the terrapin for "human enjoyment"!!! >.<"
Tragic enough that the poor things had to die for your dish only to have you not enjoy eating it.
Lemme try again. I think I read a comment somehwere in here asking why people don't condemn the consumption of chicken and cows.
ReplyDeleteIF (operational word being IF) turtles and terrapins can be battery farmed, conservationists would all keep our mouths shut.
PETA would probably have things to say about battery farming in this case but as far as conservationists go, battery farming of endangered species with the prospects of leaving the natural stock untouched is a viable enough option for us.
Why aren't sellers attacked? someone asked. The thing is this. NO ONE is being attacked. Conservationism is not a game of finger pointing. It is a joint action of accountability.
So again. Why not atack the sellers? Here's the answer. The consumer is king. Conservationists assume that consumers are the ones with the purchasing power and thus the ones with the rational decision making. If you are blaming the sellers for your purchasing decisions, then I suppose our assumption of an informed, rational decision making consumer is incorrect. Because, according to you (whoever you are), consumers blindly buy anything and everything on sale without thinking. Doesn't that sound like money talking?
reply to samantha - go read economics. chickens cow blabla are owned by ppl. seal blabla wat ever endangered animal..no one have ownership on them. so... think bout wat u just said.
ReplyDeleteand then? =.=". well humans are humans. they eat watever is available.. i guess cindy just wanna try it. she did say she was sorry. yes ppl can make a deal out of this cuz of the way she blog it or watever..but shudnt really attack firt >< im definately on PETA's side but wat im saying is cows n chickens n all breed fast n etc.. but turtles.. take a long time to grow n etc. so i know what u mean. but still.. we all get the point ur trying to say here. and i didn say anything bout money n etc =.="
