Been blogging for 5 years!

Time flies! I'm certified to suffer from middle age crisis now.

I've retired from Facebook

It proved to be too tiring for old people like to keep up.

I've killed my fluffy, my vampire, my zombie, and my werewolf, and also my slayer.
I've deleted superwall because it is so annoying.

I've ignored more than 100 different requests everytime I log in (once in a month)

Oh, I've stopped petting others' fluffy too.

The only thing that keeps me going on is the Flixter's Ultimate Movie Quiz!
All competitors within my friends are my relatives!
It runs in the blood, I guess.

I'm getting tired of all these

Eat oily stuff in the morning... Loose bowels.

Eat too full before I sleep... Loose bowels.

Exercise right after I eat... Loose bowels.

Eat curry chicken with red wine noodle... Loose bowels.

Drink carbonated drinks in the morning... Loose bowels.

Mixed milk with alcohol... Loose bowels.

The list go on and on...

Gosh, it has become a part of my life!

Decomposition of human body

The first stage is self digestion, also known as autolysis. This happens when the cells break down the body into elements the cells can eat. This creates a liquid that gets between the layers of skin and makes the skin peel off. Also during this stage, flies (when present) start to lay eggs in the openings of the body: eyes, belly button, open wounds, and other orifices. They then get under the skin and start to eat the body. The maggots that find the body in the first stage are about as small as uncooked grains of rice.

The second stage of decomposition is bloating. When bacteria breaks down the body it makes gas. When we are alive it makes gas from the food we eat. Once one dies it ends up feeding off the tissue in the body and gas will build up. But the gas cannot escape from a corpse because the small intestine collapses very early on. The bloating usually happens in the abdomen, but can also be seen in the mouth and genitalia, where the most bacteria congregate. The tongue will swell and stick out. This usually happens in about the second week of decomposition. Bloating will keep happening until something gives way. Most of the time it’s the intestines, but on occasion it can be the actual torso, and that usually involves a ripping noise. In the second stage the maggots look like cooked grains of rice: moist, stuck together and larger. The bloat stage usually lasts about a week and then putrefaction and decay set in.

The third stage is putrefaction and decay. It’s the longest process and the last stage. Putrefaction starts during the bloat stage but the effects aren’t obvious until after the bloat stage is over. Putrefaction is when the body breaks down, and tissues and bacteria liquefy. The digestive organs, the brain, and lungs disintegrate first because that’s where the most bacteria are. For about three weeks the organs inside are still identifiable, but after that everything inside turns into the consistency and color of chicken soup. The muscles can be eaten by bacteria, but also be devoured by carnivorous beetles. Under some circumstances the skin is eaten by various things including bacteria and bugs, or it just dries out and hardens. Then nothing really wants to eat it because the skin is too tough. Eventually all that is left is the skeleton.

This is interesting shit!

Introduction to Malaysia

A place where the rich will get richer and the poor will remain the same, if not getting poorer.

Kedai Kopi Pinang Kecik

That was the name of the place which I should see my sister for the last time for this year.

Anyway, I'm wondering why charges stop coming into my credit card since last Monday.

I went to check the mail in the new house a few days ago, saw nothing but a 'Cukai Taksiran' mail from Datuk Bandar. It cost around 30% of the maintenance charge.

Behold! Income tax 2007 e-Filing date is coming soon.

Pushing yourself to the limit

It always come in this order:-

- Hungry
- Feeling dizzy
- Thirsty
- Eyes starting to have tears
- Running nose
- Keep on sneezing non-stop
- Bleeding nose
- Finger nails becoming purple in colour
- Sleep!

Sugar rush!

I was so tired and sleepy and I could not focus on the road...

Then I was being offered a Mars bar.

Without hesitation, I gobbled it down.

And I became as energetic as ever..

So meaningful, isn't it?

Chinese New Year!

It's here finally. In just one blink of an eye, I felt that last Chinese New Year was only like yesterday! Alright, it's 2008 now, and I'm officially a granpa.

When we were leaving Amman that day, a Royal Jordanian flight scheduled at 12 pm to Doha would have to be delayed because of few missing passengers, when I board the plane at 2 pm, they are still looking for the missing people. Gee, I'm glad I picked the right one.

We reached Doha at 6:30 pm, and it's already dark, and the driver of the bus took a big round to send us back to the terminal. I'm sure we spent more than 20 minutes circling the airport like on a sightseeing trip.

Guess it's peak hour at that in Doha because the airport is really packed. The security guard insisted that I take off my belt. I hate that. The last time I took off my belt in Sweden, I lost my USB drive.

Oh, I have to run now.
The day's getting late.

Reasoning

This blog is now private! I'm going to vent about politics and also religion, and how it affects us in M'sia.

The reason I'm so stressed out lately is that, my mom's health is failing. She is losing her vision in both her eyes, and I don't know what I can do to help. Just standing on the side and watching life pass her by.

I'm getting old too.
