Little Pei's nice home

Hi. Thanks for stopping by.  You know, in this neighborhood, my home is perhaps the simplest one.  See, I don't think all them nifty backgrounds and tons of images would fit into this home because it might take *ages* to download them.  But, I have to confess, I do have areas dedicated to many pictures taken during my trips or taken by my mom.  Do please enjoy your visit here.

Personal Interests

Nature
Well, of course my main interest is watching Nature itself.  I love sitting under a tree and watching life goes by -- things such as birds that fly from branch to branch while chirping frantically to each other; squirrels and chipmunks that are busy scampering back and forth with acorns in their mouth; or a leaf that dances gracefully in the air before landing on the ground with a sigh; people walking around with or without thinking, or even a sunset.  Sometime you just need to stop and listen or see.  Nature, IMHO, does not always means "the natural world as it exists without human beings or civilization" or its elements.  I mean, if animals can be one of the natural world's elements, why can't human beings become part of the natural world also?  Check this page if you want to see several of my favorite pictures about nature in general from  my point of view.
Books
Little Pei is just a mere two years old bear.  But mom used to read me some nifty books from JRR Tolkien, Douglas Adams, Asterix, Charles Dickens and Walt Whitman's poems.  There are also books from Emha Ainun Nadjib and Y.B. Mangunwijaya.  Now, what do all these  have to do with nature?  Nothing.  I just like reading books.
Music
First, classical music.  Not only the usual classics such as Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven and Tchaikovski, but also classical music of Indonesia such as Kecapi-Suling and Saluang.
Second, New Age.
Third, progressive rock.
Fourth, jazz and blues.  Blues... ah, blues... It's not about the rhythm of the music, but it's about the feeling when you hear the music.
Tea and Hot Chocolate
I like to snuggle up in my couch while reading books and sipping either a big mug of hot chocolate or hot tea (darjeeling is the best!)
My mom
Blame it on my mom for she's the one who made me a spoiled little bear.
Dooty, BigPaw and Edgberg
Dooty is my first weird but cool friend.  He taught me nifty tricks such as licking my own nose, running frantically in circles and messing up my dearest uncle's room.  BigPaw is my big bro.  He is sooooo cool!  Can't say anything else about him.  I just love him.  Edgberg... well, what should I say... He is another weird friend of mine.  Don't tell anybody, but I think he's a wonderful guy.  Here are our pictures if you want to see them.
My Uncle
Edgberg's dad, a wacky but nifty guy who lives in New Zealand.  Right now, I am staying with him.  Too bad he is too lazy to maintain a home page.  You would like it if you could visit it.  In the mean time, I'll try to convince him to get  his home page up and running.

Ansel Adams Gallery
Well, I like pictures about nature.  Period.  But, sometime I wish Mr. Adams would take some pictures with a human element.
