Those people who stay in Damansara, Bandar Utama, PJ (Non KL), have they ever think about the distance of travelling from those areas to KL and from KL travelling to those areas are the same?
When you are having some gathering in KL, KL folks will always get this kind of comments from non KL folks, “it is so far to travel to KL!” Sometimes, I just get upset when I got this kind of comments from my close friends. For non-KL folks to travel to KL is consider far, but for KL folks to travel to non-KL is never a far in their dictionary because we always try our best to accommodate our close friends. Let’s have some thoughts for your friends in KL. There are other nice places to visit beside One-Utama, The Curve….
Don’t give this kind of comments (is far to travel to KL) if you were invited for some gathering in KL. If you don’t feel like going just said so, but please don’t give this kind of shit comment anymore. Bear in mind that distance is the same for us (KL folks) to travel to PJ, Damansara or Bandar Utama.
FYI: Distance from Damansara, Bandar Utama, PJ to KL = Distance from KL to Damansara, Bandar Utama, PJ.

Grandma
My brother received an urgent call from relatives in Melaka saying that my grandma emitted to hospital and she is in bad condition. We were call to pay our visit. May be our last visit.
I took an emergency leave for 2nd half day yesterday and rush down to Melaka with together with my brother and sister in law. Approximately 2.5 hours drive.
When we arrived in the hospital, they were more 10 people standing beside my grandma. Some of them drive from Singapore and some from Muar. Nothing much we can do. My grandma is 91 years old and turning to 92 in this September. She has a hip fracture and is in pain. My aunt told me she refuses to eat and can’t talk. She thin like a skeleton. My aunt wakes her up to let her know that me and my brother are here to visit her. Grandma acknowledged our arrival and fall asleep again.
She is half conscious i guess. My aunt asked me whether grandma will recover or not. I am speechless...
After spending sometime in the hospital, we left and head to my uncle’s house.
Later at night, before we go back to KL, my brother, sister in law and me when to the hospital again. A lady staying in the same ward as my grandma told us that she wakes up and asks for water. To my surprise I thought she can't speak. My grandma actually speaking, but she only able to speak in single word. We have to guess what she wants. Apparently, she is hungry. We ask her whether she wants to drink some milk and water. She nodes her head. So we feed her slowly. She fall asleep easily and we have to call her in loud to wake her up. It is good that she drinks. My heart was in pain when I saw her suffering.
We left the hospital when she sleep quietly and soundly. By time I reached KL, is almost 1am.

Odie's Polyps
My rusty is doing well after his second operation.
Here comes my Odie again. Recently, Odie’s ear is really smelly and we suspect that his ear is infected. So we sent Odie to the vet.
Again, doctor told me that there are 2 polyps deep inside his ear and there is some infection in his ear too.
This is the definition of Polyps:
“A polyp is an abnormal growth of tissue (tumor) projecting from a mucous membrane. If it is attached to the surface by a narrow elongated stalk it is said to be pedunculated. If no stalk is present it is said to be sessile.”
Doctor gave me 2 suggestions:
1) Operation to remove the polyps:
I did not take this option as the polyps grown deep inside his ear and it is dangerous to undergo operation. Even after the operation, polyps might come back. Doctor said there might be complication before and after the operation since Odie is a senior dog. Doctor himself don’t really recommend this option.
2) A deep wash for the ear.
This is not the cure for that grown, instead it is just to slow it down. I choose to do this. There are further 2 choices for this option. It can do it with or without anaesthetics. The different of course is in the billing. I told the doctor that I don’t want my dog to suffer so I choose to anaesthetic my dog even I have to pay a little bit more.
Now Odie is under full time medication.
I will bankrupt one day if my dogs non stop giving me problems.

On Diet
It has been a while since I weigh myself. I know I have put on weight but don’t know how much I have put on. I can feel myself getting clumsier. Skirts and trousers getting tighter. The heaviest I got was the time I was in Beijing and that is the time the doctor said I am overweigh and I have to lost weight. I might not look overweight in a glance but doctor advise me to maintain my weight at certain level in order to stay healthy. Hence, I take my weigh in Beijing as a benchmark. It is an evil weight that I have to stay away from. All the while, I thought I was still away from the evil weight. Few days ago, I weigh myself in my gym. Shock of my life, I am at my evil weight. It is like a ringing bell to me that it is time to go on diet.
I have a bet with John. He will lose MYR1K, if I can lose 2kg in a month for 2 consecutive months (i.e. 4kg in 2 months). Losing weigh is one of the hardest things I can do. I can’t resist to good food. My mind and eyes are always in a standby mode for food even I don’t feel hungry at all. I eat for the sake of eating and tasting. Furthermore, I like to bake breads at home lately. I will bake my own breads for my family members, white bread, wholemeal bread, red bean buns and cookies.
My sister and sister in law are so keen on the bet offered because it sounds so easy to them. My sister has record of losing 6kg in a month. My sister in law has problem in maintaining her weigh where she kept losing weight after she gave birth. For me, I have problem in maintaining my weight too, as it keep INCREASING.
The good thing is I still maintaining my regular work out in gym. What I need to do is to cut my food in half. No snacking in between meals. This means no more potato chips. I am in love with potato chips lately…. Sigh…. Have to say to bye to them. I am not going to have too drastic change in my diet plan. I will do it gradually this time.
Today is my third day of diet. Yesterday, I had smoked salmon salad for my lunch, a slice of wholemeal crackers in late afternoon. For my dinner, I had a bowl of soup, vegetables and fruits. I start feeling hungry at 10pm. I was so tempted to grab some food to eat. The worse part is my sister in law was having her McDonald cheeseburger as supper, she offered me the burger. I resisted it, and I went to bed directly. By 10.30pm, I am asleep.

Rusty’s Operation
Rusty has gone for his operation last week. He was fine after the operation. However, the wound got inflammation. My sister brought him back to the vet for further treatment. He was alright after that treatment. Few days later the wound did not recover. He has to go back to the vet. Doctor advised Rusty to undergo a 2nd operation. Doctor said they need to fix the stitches. I was wondering, what’s wrong with the stitches? Has the doctor stitched it correctly during the 1st operation? Or did Rusty scratches his wound till some of the stitches drop off? I don’t think my sister will ask the doctor this kind of questions. I am not there to blame whose faults. I just don’t want to see my dog suffer further.
I understand that dog healing power is different from human. I can feel the pain as Rusty need to suffer a certain level of pain again. His weight has dropped dramatically. He has bruises in his intestine. He can only go for liquid food at the moment. No matter what, I just hope that he will recover from this 2nd operation

容祖儿演唱会- Jun 28, 2008
上星期五去看了容祖儿的演唱会。很高兴的是座了一个算蛮好位子,应该能称得上风水位吧!我坐在PS2 面向舞台的第一排。如果你有去过云顶云星剧场的现场话,你就会体会到我所说的风水位了。说实的,这不是我原本买的票, 我的票应该是星期六的,买票的时候,完完全全忘了星期六是Jayme 的满月party。兜兜转转的,朋友给我换来了一张比我原本更好的票。应该是PS面向舞台中间的位。
到场时,演唱会刚刚开始,看到的自己的位子,前后左右都坐满的人,看到最前的一排是空的,几个朋友说坐了再说。我的风水位就是这样的来的。看完的演唱会,也没人赶我们走。
容祖儿载歌载舞,声线一流。情歌天后这个荣誉,真的是实在名归。现场的演绎非常好,平均两三首歌就换一件衣服,到了最后,我也lost count他换了多少件衣服了。连我妈也说好, 妈妈说以前看了很多老一辈歌手的演唱会,看了容祖儿的,感觉完全不一样。容祖儿唱live 真的是“无得挺”, 果然是实力派歌手。唯一不好的是,有很多我想听得歌,他都没唱。唱了蛮多我不熟悉的歌。
该死的我,忘了带相机。
