This is my first impression about Kapit. First impression. It is a small town with disproportionate number of people and cars. There were probably the whole people of Kapit in that town that day, shopping. I felt alienated. Either I was the alien or they were. Everyone speaks language I couldn't understand. I thought i was in Vietnam or Cambodia. This could not be Malaysia. How can a developing country like Malaysia still have places like this? I probably may need to stay at the shophouses as the Medical "Villa" was too exclusive that could only be reached by the Royal highness Limo. Hence, I've decided to drag Rushie to Kapit. Regardless what, Rushie needs to transform into Rushibot. Till now, my stay is still not confirm, pretty please i could have the shophouse. If not, then tent it is. Any treehouse available? That will do. Once Rushie's transformation is complete, then i can rent the bungalow by the hill and i could view Sungai Rejang from my bedroom window a...

Funny thing happened today with Mama Even though she is now able to move her right hand (the weak hand), she still have the expressive dysphasia (which means she understands everything you say but having difficulty in saying it out). There are times that we could not really understand what she wanted hence we guess. Up till now, we are doing pretty well. Today, my uncle bought satay for all of us. I fed Mama with rice and masak asam and she really liked them. She ate few spoonfuls! But she did not want the satay. "Dah...Dah!!" and pushed the plate away from her and forced me to eat them instead. While I was spoon-feeding Mama, Shaggy; our cat was at my feet, begging me for the satay. I kicked her away. Suddenly, after all that, Mama asked for the satay. We gave it to her and after we cut the meat smaller, she said something like "me...raa..maa''. We couldn't understand. She kept on repeating it until up to a point she gave a long sigh, depressed, wanted to g...

chocolate heaven

Thu Jul 23, 10:55 am ET LONDON (AFP) – Scientists are looking for women willing to eat chocolate every day for a year -- all in the name of medical science. Researchers at the University of East Anglia and a hospital in Norwich, eastern England are trying to find out whether chocolate can cut the risk of heart disease and need 40 women to step forward and help. Most of the women will have to eat two bars of "super-strength chocolate specially formulated by Belgian chocolatiers" daily for one year and undergo several tests to measure how healthy their hearts are. The others will have to eat regular chocolate as a placebo. One possible catch, for chocolate fans spotting an opportunity: volunteers for the research should be menopausal but aged under 75 and have type two diabetes. Study coordinator Peter Curtis said: "A successful outcome could ...

eat too much

kecoh satu dunia sekarang pasal kekurangan makanan asas. terutamanya beras yang menjadi makanan ruji penduduk negara-negara di Asia terutamanya. tak payah la cakap pasal macam mana orang semua panik sebab takot tak cukup makan seluruh dunia, cerita pasal orang kat Rembau ni pun dah cukup untuk menunjukkan betapa gilanya orang sekarang pasal isu makanan tak cukup ni. beberapi hari lepas, aku teman Mama (my grandma) ke kedai nak beli beras. dia terus panik sebab orang kedai tu tak bagi Mama beli beras lebih dari 2 kampit. Mama terus macam nak gila. terus dia ke semua kedai termasuk pasaraya nak buat bekalan stok beras setahun. waktu itu juga, aku rase ada la dalam 5 kali atau lebih dia cakap statement ni. "Mama risau ni Dik, Mama rasa macam zaman Jepun. nak makan apa la anak cucu cicit Mama ni ha. Ya Allah, risau Mama ni Dik. Mana nak cari beras ni. Makan ubi kayu la kita. tak kira la mahal macam mana pun kita beli je. duit boleh cari." aku tau ni satu isu yang serius. betul. s...
