The unborn baby
Few days ago, while i was busy working in my office, suddenly there was a call from the ANC (antenatal section). My colleague who is in-charge of it was on leave so I have no choice but to "one leg kick" the whole place.
On the phone i heard a desperate voice of a staff nurse. "Must be mou-hou-yeh" i thought silently in my mind. And true enough, she said there is a Malay lady who is about 19 weeks pregnant complaining of lower abdominal pain and per-vaginal bleeding which happen since morning.... and there is "something jutting out from her vagina".... I was like WTF... anyway the vital signs were stable and so I have to abandon the huge load of people waiting outside and go to attend the case.
Once i reached the place, i saw some relieved faces. Then i saw a kidney dish containing a big sac and a piece of placenta. On further questioning and looking at the records, apparently she was already diagnosed to have a miscarriage the day before and that the pregnancy was non-viable already at the hospital and was asked to go to the nearest health center in case of PV bleed. The staff nurse should really have told that in advanced....haih...
Luckily the patient was in stable condition and the gestational sac and placenta everything was still intact, which means nothing was left in the uterus, which could be a messy affair. Ultrasound scan confirmed the finding.
Didnt take a pic of the sac though cos not appropriate ma...But it looks something like this..
Just imagine a big sac full of fluids and the inside contain a small fetus like the one above. Then beside it is a piece of placenta. It does smell ...musky? The quirky nurse was even asking whether to poke open the sac to see the contents inside. But i prohibited it cos whats the point of breaking it and letting out all the nasty amniotic fluid leh? Might as well leave everything in one piece and let it look beautiful at its last moment, at least.
Hmm...but the weird thing is... how come i dont feel anything at all? I dont feel anything disgusting or horrible (there were blood splattered on the bed as well). In fact there was once an accident case with a head trauma patient. I could stick my finger into a hole on the back of his head to see how deep is the puncture wound. And the head was wet with dripping blood. Disgusting right?
Have i lost my sense of humanity? Or have i become stoic from all these encounters? Hmm..

Stalker? Admirer?
To you a.k.a *****880, whom might be reading this post now, I just wanna say that I knew u have been tracking me online for quite some time now. Initially I chose to ignore it because no harm has been done. However, the mail u sent this morning has prove to be too much of a bitter pill to swallow. While I do not wish to view it in a negative light, I must stress that I DO NOT enjoy being sneaked up on nor am I such a celebrity to deserve this kind of treatment.
U probably have read through every single post here to dig a little tidbits about me here and there. While I appreciate your passion in reading my blog, I certainly could not endorse your doings. U have breached my comfort zone by infringing into my personal life and as such tantamount to violating my privacy. I just feel uncomfortable with this.
Hence, I would greatly appreciate it if u would refrain from continuing such unfruitful actions. Thank you and have a nice day:)
p.s. Any hunks here wanna be my personal bodyguard? I fear i might need some..LOL

A place to call home
We are like the harbours
resting ourselves by the seaside
welcoming ships of all walks of life into our little sanctuary
for them to take a rest
replenish energy to go on with their separate journey
ships...they come and they go
never knowing if they would return to us one day
all the harbour could do
is shining its ever blinding light
wait for the day THE ship would come
and calls it his home for eternity
We are like the ships
ferry, yachts, boats and sampans,
sailing in this vast ocean
brace ourselves against the angry tides and waves
sometimes we are hit by giant tsunami
that brings us down
sometimes pirates ship comes out of the blue
robs us of our money and gold
strips us of our dignity
but somewhere along the way a lifeboat appears and lift us up
Some of us are drifters
letting the waves bring us to fresh continents
continent to continent we go
into the unknown territory
unaware of danger lurking all around
Some of us are seekers
ready with navigator
setting eyes on treasure islands
island after island we go
seeking the elusive treasures
But in the end
what we been looking for all along
is just a harbour to dock, for LIFE
a place to call HOME

What is wrong with str8 men nowadays?
Yesterday went to IPoh Parade to have a look since its so bored and hot at home. Nothing to buy and nothing to ogled it , how disappointing :(
Anyway, while i was browsing in the bookstore (browsing the books of course), I see a very young couple probably in their early 20s chit-chatting away with their friends. And then I saw this:
Sad to say there is no lack of young Ah Bengs and Ah Lians here but the problem doesn't lie in here. What is wrong with the above picture? Nothing...except that the handbag was slugged over the guy's shoulder instead... and he was happily parading and walking around the bookstore as if he is in some fashion runway... I frowned for a brief moment and really felt like wanna puke!
Not that I have any problem with a guy carrying a bag. But a guy carrying a ladies' bag? Yucks100!!! Thats yucks to the power of 100! I believe there is a difference being a gentlemen and a slave! To open the door for the lady is gentlemen. To stash a seat for the lady is gentlemen. To walk/drive the lady back home is gentlemen (provided she doesnt have a car). To carry your girl's handbag is NOT. That is obviously a master and slave manifestation. Its not like the handbag is very heavy or she just had a dislocated shoulder... What's next? Lick her boots clean with the tongue? Is there any wonder how this could happen as posted some time ago?
Seriously, what is wrong with str8 guys nowadays? This is not the first time im seeing this peculiar phenomenon. Male feminization syndrome? Afflicted with testicular atrophy? Really no eye see....
What do you think? Am I the only one with too much male ego?

Taugeh Chicken Kai Si Hor Fun
Brought a friend from Malacca sightseeing around IPoh again this time...Went a little bit further away including Kellie's Castle. I brought him to try the Taugeh Chicken near my place instead of the usual Lou Wong and Onn Kee in town area for dinner. Luckily we went early cos 7.30pm already full with people. Lucky lucky :P
Let the pics do the talking:
Chicken can be order in a separate plate or in the form of Kai Si Hor Fun (shredded chicken in noodle soup). We ordered 2 bowls of this. The chicken is tender and smooth. Hor Fun looks nice in translucent colour. I find it less oily compare to the 2 shops mentioned before.
I ordered another plate of Taugeh. Typical fat juicy Ipoh Taugeh. LOL. Some people say its fat and juicy because of the mountain water they used for irrigation. Wonder true or not....In that case the same mountain water is consumed by Ipoh people as well right? Then Ipohians should be fat and juicy too, no?
Besides Taugeh Chicken, the shop also serves some extra side dishes and even Char Siew rice. Here is a bowl of Pork Balls. Spongily nice :D
They also serve chicken feet like the one pictured above. All my life I have always think chicken feet is so dirty, unhygienic, gross....but it seems appealing enough for me to try. The first time in my life I tasted a chicken feet! Though just the smaller pieces...LOL....Yeah its nice indeed...
And where the heck is this place anyway?? since i been talking so long....
This is the place we went that evening. And the total cost for the appetizing dinner? RM12.90. I definitely should eat here more often since its so near my house LOL.
p.s. Today start working d...sob...sob....
