Of Work and sickness

30 05 2008

I’ve been exposed to overtime in offices since god know when.
I’ve had experiences where i practically stayed in the office for 2 days in a row.. that’s 48hrs!.
But it never affected my health.

Now in this office, somehow i think the ventilation system is not very good. Almost everytime i had to stay back and work over time, i will surely get sick 2-3 days after that.

now when i was at Creative Juice\Sil, this never happen. Now y’all remember that last few week i was down with flu and sore throat.. now im at it again.

The one that’s affected severely is my pregnant wife.. poor you baby..

Hmm.. this is bad..





The World Is Your Oyster

13 05 2008

Taken From Wikipedia (Which i think is a great invetion for mankind! to some it’s GOD! haha) :

“The common name oyster is used for a number of different groups of bivalve mollusks, most of which live in marine habitats or brackish water. The shell consists of two usually highly calcified valves which surround a soft body. Gills filter plankton from the water, and strong adductor muscles are used to hold the shell closed.

Some of the groups known as oysters (true oysters) are highly prized as food, both raw and cooked. Some other groups also called oysters, such as pearl oysters, are not widely eaten, at least not in recent times.

True (edible) oysters are incapable of making gem-quality pearls, although the opposite idea is a commonly-encountered misapprehension, often seen in illustrations or photographs where an edible oyster shell is mistakenly paired with a gem-quality pearl.

The oyster is used as a metaphor in an idiomatic saying, “The world is your oyster”, which means that the whole world is laid out before you like a wonderful living buffet.”

Here’s what i need y’all to help me out. I am currently trying to gather some data on Oysters Farming in Malaysia.

So please, if any of you or your friends have any thoughts on Oyster Farming in Malaysia, please drop me a comment together with your email.

Some of the questions that probably you can help me with:

1. Do you take Oyster? (Raw or cooked?)

2. Where do you think your oysters that you consume comes from? (Country? local? international?)

3. Do you think that fresh oysters in your favorite Hyper market is expensive?

4. Do you really think that fresh oysters in your favorite Hyper market is really fresh?

5. Do you obviously think that Oysters from N.Z or Canada or any other “Mat Salleh” country is fresh and good for you?

6. How can you tell that the oysters that are being serve is not from local supplier despite what they wrote on the Menu?

7. Would you sheepishly admit that even if the restaurant / hotel serves you locally bred oysters, you wouldn’t know how to tell the difference?

8. Would you buy cheap but fresh Oysters if there are any?

There! those are the questions that has been dangling over my head for the past 3-4 days and even my sweet wifey didn’t know about it!

P/s: Las Carritas serves good Oyster Shots!

 





A visit by Mr. Sickness

7 05 2008

Hey y’all,

I’ve been down with sore throat, runny nose and slight fever since Sunday Night.

This morning, i felt really sick and been waking up every half and hour to cough up my flam and blow my blocked nose. The coughing and blowing up the blocked nose had cause pain in my abdomen and my back.

Innitailly the doctor said it’s a commom case of Pharyngitis (cases, a painful inflammation of the pharynx, and is colloquially referred to as a sore throat. Infection of the tonsils (tonsillitis) and/or larynx (laryngitis) may occur simultaneously.)

Then there was the Flu.

I think it’s the season.

Now Liza is having bad coughs and i pity her.

I guess i’ll be on hiatus for a while till my sickness wears off.
