37 deg???

January 12th, 2010

And i thought it was only in dodo land that it is very hot. At midnight on Monday 11th,  it was 37 deg. in Melbourne. Locals were unable to sleep and flocked to ice cream parlours and the beaches for some night swimming. Southern Australia remains high on risk on fire alert warnings. At 27 deg at night we are complaining about intense heat but when hearing about the situation in Aussie, we could not help but say to ourselves that we are still lucky. Tiredness and lack of sleep will accompany us for the remaining months of summer and for those who are enjoying cool air and good sleep, thumps up!

Supernatural!

January 12th, 2010

Supernatural to be aired by the national station as from on Wednesday and Thursday 13th and 14th January 2010. It’s quite unusual for the national station to air consecutive episodes on the same day or even a day after, apart from an epic episode or special events. Series like CSI-NY and New York 911 have 2 episodes broadcast on the same day. I like to watch sci-fi, supernatural movies or series and hopefully would appreciate this one too. From what i gather, it seems like a demon chase like Buffy the vampire slayer. Did someone watch Supernatural? How is it?

Holidays over!

January 3rd, 2010

Already 4th January 2010. Woahh!! How time flies really fast!!!! It seems yesterday when we were all rejoicing that end of year is near, and that implied holidays… Now it will be only a couple of days before we all resume work, sigh!!! Holidays will be over for some (in 7-8 hours time) while for others it will be in a week’s time. What have i done during these days off, well nothing useful :p Made up a couple of things which should be done but at the end of the day, 100% undone and 100% uncompleted. Laziness and heat and torrential rains are to be blamed. As usual hihihi! Ok better try to get some sleep but no easy with buzzing sounds around coupled with scorching humidity and heat….

When will you resume work?

December 12th, 2009

When asked whether it would be ok to resume work on the 4th January 2010, one manager shouted that should work resume on that day, he would submit his resignation immediately. Now that is called spoilness.  He has been working for 15 years with the same employer and is more equal than others. There are no retaliations against him when he damaged company cars in accidents. Should a mere mark appear on a car, you would normally get reprimanded, pay for the damage or even get fired should you recur.  Well i guess such is life. So when will you resume work?

Diarrhea!

December 8th, 2009

Had diarrhea yesterday. Don’t know what food was wrong.  I had the first discharge early Monday morning. Thought it would ok and went off to work. There my tummy was groining all the time. So i had some pao ti yan (i was out of stock for imodium). Immediately after re toilet again. Then i decided to go back home. On my way back i went to the pharmacy to buy imodium. The first one i called did not have it. It had another pill for diaarhea but it was more powerful, according to the pharmacian. It was like an antibiotic pill and it was 200mg. Since it was new and its doses was more than 100 times in antidiarrhea pills i did not buy it but instead went to another drugstore where finally i got what i wanted and also bought some serum.

Since i was totally dehydrated i took some serum, immediately after which re toilet again. Afterwards i intook the pill and went to prepare some soup for me. Yes! no toilet this time. Then i took some rest for i was completely tired. I woke up around three to recook some soup and to prepare dinner (which consisted of heating up eve’s dinner) for the rest of the family.  This time i was pretty hungry and emptied the cooking pan. Off to sleep again to wake up at nine where i ate some apples and reslept to wake up in the morning. Off to work again. Business as usual. Sigh!!! And accummulated work too…Feeling sleepy now. Sweet dreams to all, rrrrrrrrrrrr!!

Tooth extraction!

December 1st, 2009

Darn, I forgot that tooth extraction can be so hard and painful especially if it is a molar or premolar. After months of pain, i finally decided to remove the culprit. There was a cavity in the tooth and it had reached the tooth nerve. Whenever i drank cold water (no,  am not making the sensodyne pub), it hurt. Colleagues told me to use clove. It works only for half a day and at night, it was panadol. My head even ached.  I was for removal of the nerve and dental fillings, but the way the cavity has been created, it was better to remove the tooth. The cavity was on the inside. Should the nerve be removed the dentist has to cut through the other side, and this would wreck the tooth. After having removed the tooth, the dentist told me that a wisdom tooth has been unable to find its way to the surface and it was wrecking the surrounding teeth. A surgery is needed. What the hell!!! For the past first 15 years, i had problems with my teeth and evern underwent orthodontics. Needless to say tooth extraction and surgery were on the menu.  Now again re surgery. When will this drama end?

Life tastes better

November 28th, 2009

I might make some animosities among some pro KFC, but i could not help making a comment on its advert ” Life tastes better with KFC”. It portrays people who eat KFC see funny or delirious things- the employee seeing his boss as the rabbit in Chantal Goya’s song “un lapin a tue un chasseur”, and the aged pensioner seeing her inmates dancing. This makes me think that somehow there might be some LSD or some drugs in the bread or in the ingredients. Sure this is funny but the advert is a double edge sword. This is my opinion and the advert can be interpreted differently by others.

Funny combination!

November 14th, 2009

The boss’s wife told me a funny story some days back. She told her maid to prepare corned beef salad or tuna, however without specifying which one she preferred. Now when it was time to lunch, great was her surprise to hear her husband ask what kind of salad she had asked to prepare. The wife replied beef. The husband replied that the salad tasted tuna. The wife quickly picked up the phone and queried the maid. The latter told her that she prepared a mixture of tuna and beef( I laughed very loudly when i heard that and at her face) . The wife asked the maid whether she has ever eaten such a combination to which the maid replied negatively and continued that she had found it bizarre that the wife asked her to prepare such a mixture. Needless to say that the wife was very angry on that day. Who is at fault in this story? I have a hint, do you? Hahaha!!!
