Green Malaysia: Stop Lynas.

半个槟城人 The half Penangite

For my local Malaysian friends who watched the debate between CM Lim and MCA President Mr. Chua SL

Wrist Pain- Carpal Tunnel..??

from my sketch book-

suffering from severe wrist pain after using an unusually tall table with an unusually low chair.

Just got a new chair yesterday from a nearby furniture shop, feels better but I think the consequence of month-long improper posture will not fade away that easily.

If I am not careful enough, the photo below may happen to me: WARNING: GROSS IMAGE AHEAD:

OKAY I saw one even grosser, but lets just leave that outside my blog (You may google image Carpal Tunnel to have a look, AT YOUR OWN RISK people)

Things happened recently that happened to me since I last updated?

Here we go:

1)Just asked company for a transfer to KL(Shah Alam actually) currently 90% approved....

2)My kelisa came to me all the way from Penang, started driving around, brought mum to Pasar Malam/Tani :D

3)Just got my father to Hospital KL, a govt hospital, and realized what an A-hole private hospitals are.

4)Been watching lots of Hokkien drama with my Mum/Dad

5) Been watching lots of HK drama with my mum.

6) Heading back HK from 15th to 19th November. to pack the remaining stuff.

7) Changed a new laptop :) Fujitsu!!

8) My DSLR is slowly dying of fungus infection, thinking of switching to Nikon after this (You caught me...zero brand loyalty)

9) tries to exercize......not very successful apparently.....too lazy to wake up early.

Anyway, Seems like life took a quick turn for me :)
Lets all stay hopeful!

Moments Captured: Hand phone version

Sometimes you just bump into scenes thats so memorable but then your DSLR(AKA Big Camera) is back at home and someone has leased your compact camera(AKA Small Camera) permanently.

You will just have to make do with an alternative: Your hand phone camera.

They are typically not such a beauty like those I would share on Flickr (as shown above), but the object of the scene and its implicit meaning could have compensated its lack in beauty.

Here it goes:

Scene 1: Dinner in office

Location: IDS Lifung Centre, Shatin HK

Description: 8:30pm in the office, dinner? Mini Pizza hot dog, fried fish skins (YES! Say "OMG they eat fish skin " my westerner friends) and a can of iced lemon tea.

Worked till 10:30pm after this quick dinner.

Scene 2: A crystal-ed SLK

Location: The Element, West Kowloon, HK

Description: wow....

Scene 3: 搵雞唔洗返大陸 又平又靚根記有

("You don't have to travel to Mainland to look for CHICKEN, we have them here nice and cheap!"--$29)

Location: Wo Che 禾輋, Shatin

Description: A good laugh... saw this during a supper gathering with my colleagues in Wo Che. (In case you don't know, chicken is the alternative tongue-in-cheek expression for prostitute in Cantonese/Mandarin)

Scene 4: I thought it was a bus ticket

Location: LCC-T, Sepang, Malaysia

Description: The boarding pass Airasia gave me in my last return trip from KL. Handwritten, almost like another bus ticket I had on my trip from Penang to KL.

Is this how they cut cost? (Note: Airasia is an airline, and I am suppose to board a plane with this ....bus ticket-look alike thing)

Scene 5: LP 3427

Location: Siu Lek Yuen, Shatin, HK

Description: To all my Penang friends=YES THEY HAVE "LP" NUMBER PLATES! (To my non-hokkien speaking friends, thats not a nice word to use in hokkien, period.)

Scene 6: The Earth House

Location: Yongding Perfecture, Fujian Province, China

Description: A visit to my mum's ancestral culture (after being in the city where my dad's ancestral culture originated from-Xiamen), the Hakka people's Earth House 土楼。

This one is well known for its tilted pillars. According to our guide, the carpenter of this structure were pissed by the commissioner of this earth house, decided to show him how good he is, so he made the pillars tilted but still the entire house is as good as other earth houses.
