我老了,怎么办?

我发现,我似乎开始有老化的迹象。
  1. 从前,我可以跑草场两圈半;现在跑不完一圈。
  2. 从前,我骑脚踏车可以用接近十分钟一公里的速度;现在... 忘了有多久没骑了。
  3. 从前,我可以持续两个小时的空手道训练;现在应该坚持不到半粒钟吧?
  4. 从前,我可以持续站着多过四小时(打假期工时);现在最多四十分钟?
  5. 从前,我可以做很多软骨运动;现在,再用力些恐怕会骨折。
  6. 从前,一天五餐也不担心变胖;现在不管吃多吃少体重有增无减。
  7. 从前,攀高爬低蹦蹦跳跳不会喘;现在走多一点路就上气不接下气了。
最惨的是,或许因为早前做了过多搬运工作,好端端的背椎骨竟然会疼痛,坐直弯腰都会有刺刺痛的感觉。

认不清方向不在话下,偶尔还会有短暂失忆症。(譬如说,忘了两星期前曾看过的电影内容,忘了十分钟前做过的事....)

我会不会有未老先衰症啊?
真悲哀,我还不到二十二岁咧~

Update Update

Haven't been signing in blogger for more than a month, not because I am too busy, not because I am too lazy, not because I have nothing to blog about.. but I simply... forget about the existence of my blog lo..

Starting the first day of July, I have been moving back to my hometown, so its back and forth my office in KL and my home in Klang. One journey alone takes me more than 2 hours, 45++ minute of driving + 55++ minutes of KTM + 15++ minutes of LRT + walking and waiting time.. Thank god I didn't have to do it for the past 7 months, or else I would be dying by now. Although its a good way of losing weight, but staying at home wo.. can lose weight meh?

Starting this month also, I have been very free. Nothing much to do at the site, so I am back to office. Nothing much to do in the office also, since all the tasks given to me are completed almost at the same time. So what to do ler? When I told my friends I am too free, they scolded me :" Go do your final report la!" Talking about final report, its not that I don't wanna do it.. but.. its so sad to say that I have completed it early early, printed out the hardcopy and settled the CD as well.
So?

Today is my second last day in the office. Guess what have I done since this morning?
Tidying up my table, throwing papers, printing my personal stuff, reading blogs, wandering about in the office asking around where to do the hardcover for my report, go for lunch, came back from lunch repeating what I was doing before going for lunch......
(at this point I believe that I am somewhat, a bad employee..)
But tell me, what else can I do ler?


p/s: For those who haven't done their final reports, you know I am not showing off here, I am simply too bored :P

Dramatic

I was managing the files in my hard disk and I found this...

and this...

Get the hottest Youtube Downloader Software

I burst into laughter.

I still remember these are the opening and ending videos for our drama presentation during the first year of Foundation, it was 4 years back. The short story title assigned to us was 'Moon, moon, drop me a knife' if I am not mistaken. We were allowed to edit anything from the original story, so we eventually came up with the story with the title 'Sun, sun, drop me a hammer'.

The original story was about a family tragedy, we din run out much from the original theme, in fact we made it more dramatic, but at the same time adding in a lot of funny scenes.

I was acting as Bibi and Missy Suan. Bibi is the daughter of Angular (HuiChing) and De Bono (XiYi) who was killed by her own father. In short, Bibi is a ghost. Missy Suan is the nurse of Dr. Lee (JunJia), a not-so-professional doctor. We even had special guests (Chong and Boon Tat) to help out in the drama.

I can't recall every scene, but some of the scenes are still pretty clear in my mind

  1. Father Buguero (Melvin) with his black rubbish plastic
  2. Father Buguero was bullied by the mental patients
  3. Three mental patients (Chong, Boon Tat and Som Phong) shouting 'run for your life!!' when Father Buguero was frustrated by their rudeness
  4. One of the mental patients (Som Phong) wearing two different colours of socks, one shorter and the other one longer, dancing 'I like to move it'
  5. One of the mental patients (Boon Tat) imitating superman by tying a towel around his neck and running around in the class
  6. Angular fainted when she saw her daughter was killed by her husband (someone actually thought that she fainted for real and wanted to save her)
  7. Angular hit De Bono using the hammer (I still remember the way she hit, damn funny.. )
  8. Missy Suan helped Angular to escape from the mental hospital

I remember when we brainstorming for the scripts, making opening and closing videos, memorizing the scripts, inviting special guests for better effects, praticising until late at night..
and of coz.. having lots of fun!!

After 4 years, all those have become our sweet memories :-)

p/s: I love the last part of the closing video, no one helped us to take the video, we thought it was timer for photo shooting, but it just happened that all of us so 'ngam' pose at the so 'ngam' timing and so 'ngam' all of us fit so nicely in the screen. Everything was out of spontaneity yet its so nice..

Tell me there was nothing..

I read this post from shea teng's blog this morning.
It reminds me of one picture I have but I would skip it everytime I am browsing my pictures.
It was taken during civilians outing on 14th of December 2008.
In Ipoh, Halo Cafe.
Photographer: noiseemunkee

I think I don't have to enlarge the picture, it is pretty clear that 'someone' or 'something' or 'some-what-so-ever' was passing by when the picture was taken.
The photographer took 2 pictures for the same pose because he said that the first picture was not so clear.
The second picture was taken in less than 1 second after the first one.
and look.....

Where was it?
Of course it is possible for a normal person to walk passed by the place in less than 1 second.

Our pose and facial expressions were still the same, even the guy at the back was still holding his handphone.

But the creepy part is, right after the 2 pictures were taken, we looked at the camera (just to ensure the picture's quality), we actually saw the dark shadow from the screen of camera, we looked around, there wasn't anyone with black colour top in the cafe, and I am 200% sure that no one passed by when we were capturing the picture.

Anyway, we didn't want to scare ourselves so we just pretend nothing is wrong and forget about it.
But everytime I see the picture, I still have the creepy feeling.


*p/s: fyi, my photoshop skill sucks.


*edited*
I think the date is wrong, we started our internship already in December 2008.
It should be taken sometime around July 2008?? I can't recall..

Me @ Site *Edited*

This is one of the very unique ceremonies I witnessed.
In-situ Foundation Opening Ceremony

The tent was prepared specially for this less-than-30 minute ceremony.
All the site works had to be ceased about 1 hour before the ceremony.

Even the dog came to join the crowd..
The HSE committees are gonna be in trouble if there is any spot check at the site..
This dog has never received CIDB course,
it has no green card
it is here without a safety helmet.. and safety boots, too.

*The contractor told me they've booked it's PPE, but because the PPE has to be custom made that's why it takes some time -_-" *

Actually the ceremony was just like one of the very common ceremony, starting with arriving of VIPs, opening speech, speech by project director, speech by VIP, doa recitation and so on.

What makes it unique is its opening gimmick!!

Look, this is an ordinary bored hole..
which doesn't look nice.

...and this is the bored hole after decoration.
The only word I would use to describe it is cute!!
It is cute, isn't it? :P

and also this!!


The VIPs gonna pour the concrete into the bored hole
which looks something like this.
It was actually 43m deep from the ground level, the water level was quite high because the groundwater sipped into the hole from sideway after it was left open without concreting for one day.

So this is what they did for opening gimmick..


Then same action, by few different persons..

When everyone was happily looking at the opening gimmick,
what worries us is how long the soil of the bored hole could stand before it collapses and affect the pile capacity.

All the VIPs who presented at the ceremony, KL Mayor and the Brunei Minister of Finance were there also, just that I didn't know which one and which one.

*Edited: It was called Foundation Laying Ceremony (The name Foundation Opening Ceremony was simply created by me -_-" paiseh)
And among the VIPs presented were the Brunei Minister of Communication (not Minister of Finance), Chairman of the Board of Directors of Brunei Investment Agency and the Managing Director of Brunei Investment Agency.
