STAR ZOO

It’s one of reading books I’ve read. It's written by Harry Gilbert and tell us what will be able to happen when we humans always win of fighting for food or land with animals.

In the far distance future, no one can’t live in The Earth! People have to move in other planet, called Just Like Home and they are alone and sad. Nobody has seen trees or animals. Their names are picked in The Book of Remembering (stories about many animals and trees on a planet called Earth before “the Burning”, a long, long time ago ...)

A girl of sixteen who live on Just Like Home has the name Hummingbird (Hummy for short). Hummy find out Star Zoo when she is running away her wedding. Star Zoo is the name of a spaceship where many trees and animals live on. There are many different rooms on Star Zoo: Hot, cold, wet, dry, ... because animals and plants lve in different way. Star Zoo is control by a special computer. The Star Zoo computer is not only can do many different thing from taking care of baby or to building spaceship like a inteligent and clever robot. It also can think!

Obviously, Star Zoo is a fiction story only. However, cutting down trees, building house and factory, growing our own food, ... make the Earrth poluted and “The Burning” maybe comming!

Entry for March 13, 2008

He is shown in living room instead of a couple horses (I’ll tell on someday)

I finished the lastest stitch in my dad’s birthday present in ... last year ! I’m pleased! It’s enframing in Art shop. It was shown on my forum!

My daddy passed seventy year old in 26^th, January 2008. He was born under the auspices of tiger then I thought stitching a Tiger’s picture for him!

I and my friends had been searching for a month. At first, I picked it from 7ya.ru because colorless only. Normaly, a tiger picture have tens of colors even more than a hundred one but it’s key has fourteen colours!

It’s so match! I found that after I looked chart (color-chart). Although it’s key designs by May Flower floss and the instruction writes by Russian, I decided to make it because natural, wild bearing.

I began at tiger’s face because it’s the hardest: densely colourful and back stitch ;). Then, I filled all of tiger. White streaks on his fur cause me think of the years marks on my dad hair. Perhaps he’s as old as my father! (I see, Siberian tiger have white streaks when the first day come into world but ...)

After that, I stitch a branch on top. Alas! The branch is too hard stitch than my intend. I had spent two week for it. I was a little busy at that time so I had finish it for 3 months (120 wide x 140 high)

Look, he is so powerful on defile in sunset light (activity time for tiger). He is not young, he’s old enough to occupy private land. His ruffled fur show us how hard he did. Now, he’s standing to control his land and look after his family.

My daddy, I love you so much! I’m grateful to you for everything you do.
