goes by the name veron. a definitive leo born august 1, 1984. a css enthusiast, web designer, food reviewer, avid traveler, proud kitten owner. when she's not at her job as an IS developer for the government, she's likely to be out dining, or visiting an interesting art gallery or event.
after so long, i thought i would never love again. but this time, he has totally won my heart. i mean, i had never wanted anyone so much! each time i look at him, my heart breaks a little. he is so cute i wanna cry! those gentle eyes. that sweet face. and that body! oh, that body. what would i give just to be near it? i want a hug from him so badly!
meet knut, the polar bear cub! look how white and cuddly he is! his innocent little eyes are like buttons! if i ever needed a sparklette.net mascot, knut would be it!
awww…
knut is the latest german sensation. at the tender age of only a few months old, he’s already an international superstar and has won the hearts of millions!
look, how tiny!
he’s only slightly bigger than a cat! how can anyone resist that furry little ball of cuteness? he’s just a tiny little baby, the size of a soccer ball!
knut was born in the berlin zoo on december 5, 2006. rejected by his mama bear at birth, he has been raised with lots of tender loving care by zookeeper, thomas dörflein. (seriously thomas, you have the best job in the world!)
now, having raised a newborn baby (cat) myself, i know that’s no easy job. these babies tend to be extremely frail without their mothers’ warmth and milk. in fact, knut’s twin brother died at birth.
let’s hope knut would grow up to be a strong adult bear (although part of me does wish that he would stay this adorable size for a long time)!
of course, photos alone do not do knut and his cuteness enough justice. you have to watch him in this video! i had been feeling a little blue, but after playing this video, i cheered up immediately! (some people may find the song annoying. you have been warned!)
has your heart melted yet? i wanna give him a rub-rub all over! with a rub-rub here and a rub-rub there, here a rub, there a rub, everywhere a rub-rub.
please, if anyone is going to germany, please get me one of these cute knut stuffed bears! i love him so much!
(all photos have been taken from cute overload, vanity fair and zoo berlin which, for some reason, calls knut an “ice bear” instead of a “polar bear”. oh, you can download adorable knut wallpaper over there too!)

I have only this to say:
Knut rocks!
cute… very cute
Hehe. All the men love Knut!
it’s a baby bear. babies are (mostly) cute. i mean except when they’re not pooing and peeing on you or taking one of ur ear out with a swat of its paw. and knut in the first picture looks FIERCE.
ok, aware i’m evil, hehz… actually it rather reminds me of a cross b/n a dog and a baby.
(ok, fine, he’s cute)
*lol* tstar! I can’t stop laughing when I read your comment. You are so annoying! :P
Ha ha… honestly quite cute. And the tune’s very very catchy. I’ll see if i can find the stuffed bear while in UK / Vienna.
Kee kee…. would Mr. Snuggles get jealous?
I doubt you can find stuffed Knut outside Berlin! But still, I appreciate the effort! You are the sweetest! Mr. Snuggles wants another play-pal.
Wow. My old coursemate mervkwok visits here too? duuude…
Sorry Veron, forgive the lack of manners but just had to get that out of way.
I’m Fal and I actually came across this, your blog, via twittermap. I was planning on slowly going through the archives to get to know you better before commenting.
But after reading your last post before this and what was gushed about Knut I would just like to say that I’m gald that you’re feeling slightly better and that I hope this “desert experience” will fade for you soon.
Small world! I visited Merv’s blog before he started visiting mine. His sense of humor is awesome!
Also, I am very honored that you would even consider going through my archives to get to know me a little better before commenting!
Adorable! Luckily they saved him :)
Love a bear too… and when the bear play soccer too. Can’t beat that! :P
LOL, when this title pops-up in my feed reader, I thought you really in love with a “human”, a guy to be exact. When I come to your blog, then….
Haha sorry that it wasn’t what you expected. But I should say that Knut is still cuter and cuddlier than any guy I can possibly be in love with.
When I watched the video, I couldn’t help but squeal “SO CUTE!!!” Gah watching Knut has reduced me to a quivering useless lump of jelly.
Aargh teh cuteness… I need to counteract this with one of those gory pictures showing a bloody polar bear after killing a seal. =P
Gahhhh no! No gory pictures! Imagine if EVERYONE on this planet got to see the cuteness of Knut, the world would be a much better place, if only for a day.
i fell in love with this cutie the first time i saw him in the newspapers.. heh.. thanks for this post! :)
u fooled me! u notty lass! grrunt.
I read that Knut is growing up and getting less cute each day, so…
not much time left for the cute bear before it turns violent.
To quote Darth Vader from Episode III…
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
who needs YouTube when there’s… YouKnut? hahaha :P
he was even on the cover of German Vanity Fair!
