Fish spa at home?

I bought some fishes for my mom on mothers day, those that nibble your feet when you put it in the water. She complained that it wasn't enough and she go order a hundred of them. And the result...



Mom's very own fish spa at home.

Sleeping Around with Fear

While most people try to avoid them out of fear, I spend most of my nights around them sleeping soundly without any fear or worries. Most people I know will feel disgusted, shock, surprised when they hear about my unusual interest, some even gave negative comments like "One day they come out and bite/eat you then you know.", I can't really blame and call them retards for their ignorance really, it's not their fault that our education system failed to deliver right?

One of my many tarantulas

Some of my roaches

In case you are wondering why roaches? Here's why, tarantula eats insects, roaches are insects, crickets are smelly and mites ridden. I breed my own roaches to keep my tarantulas safe from mites that might come with the crickets that are sold in most pet shop plus I know for a fact that the roaches I have eats good food. These are not you average roaches you find in the drain by the way.

p.s.: I know... this post is quite lame, not really in the mood today

The Last Communist

Spent the last 2 days in the jungle for a shoot, day 1 of the shoot was utter disaster so I rather not talk about it, I wasn't able to do much too thanks to my thumb so instead of "working" I was either taking pictures, walking in to the orang asli village to chat with the people, play with asli children or sleeping.

Skin is starting to fall off, ouch...

Day 2 of the shoot, the director made me put on a communist terrorist costume and run around the jungle and in the end got myself killed and beheaded by an Indonesian military personal, I was the only person there in a communist outfit while the rest are mostly Sarawak Rangers, and it looks as if I am a captured terrorist.
Acting as a communist terrorist caught in the Sarawak Communist Insurgency made me curious about how the communist were back then, and it's amazing how they can survive in the jungle and have their morale high as we were told by an army officer who is training near the shoot.


Well, I had my fun playing as a communist for a day at the shoot, and it's back to being myself now.

Have a Great Day

My injured thumb

In my previous post I did mentioned how I managed to seriously injure my thumb, now I would like to bitch about how inconvenient it is to have a thumb that's injured, allow me elaborate a little on the condition of my thumb first. The burned skin is starting to become dark, it is also starting to break at some part and water is flowing out of the broken skin.
The doctor instructions which was not to wet my wound, so every time I shower my right arm is held high as if I am in class ready to answer a question. I also had to wash my face and brush my teeth using my left arm this at least is not as bad as trying to reach for my wallet which now has become a challenge because of the friction between the wound and my pocket makes paying for anything very painful, literally.
When it comes to eating, I cannot use the chopstick properly, even using a spoon can be quite a pain, but I lost my mood to eat every time I see my injured thumb, I'm still getting enough food thou, don't really like the feeling of being hungry.
Trying to reply SMS om my phone is also starting to piss me off, had to take my time writing using my finger, sometime typing using the keyboard is a painful affair especially when I hit the space bar with the wrong side of my thumb.
Well, it's actually not that painful now and I think it's starting to heal despite the disgusting look, water flowing and all the crap.
Time to sleep.

Have a Great Day

Strata Falls Aftermath

Walking on sunshine, crossing the abandon oil palm estate

klown AKA Henry said...

Hehehe,

lemme be the first to post results. We nearly had honey glazed thumb sausage a'la Heng for dinner due to unforseen circumstances that involved a Slurpee cup, a fly, and a lighter..

Thank you Henry for ASKING me to kill the fly... Now I shall continue with the full story, I was in a world of pain yesterday you can practically say that I had pain for dinner but before I move on to writing what happen let me first write about yesterday's hiking trip.
6.30AM, 7 of us gathered at our usual spot, the people that showed up includes Seng Keong, Aurelius, Josen, Henry, Eu Jin, Linus and myself, we started our journey to Proton City (More like Rempit Land) for Nasi Lemak Breakfast, after breakfast we head off to Diamond Creek located in Tanjung Malim where the start of the trail is. We found ourselves in what looks like an abandon oil palm estate, at about 15 minutes we started to find the jungle and as usual we had to get a little lost first. Luckily someone came out with a great idea of following the river, that dude who gave that suggestion is such a genius, anyway we started to walk upstream sometimes we had to climb a few huge rocks the size of a small house at some point even large ones.

Cam whore break: Mid way to the falls

After about an hour and 30 minutes we stopped and decided that some of us cannot move on and make it to the top, I wanted to reach the falls too but I never like the idea of splitting up or leaving anyone behind plus I can come again another day, so I decided to stay back and stay with the dudes who can't go on, even made them a nice fire to keep them warm until the other return.

The Reward: Strata Falls

at about 3pm, we started hiking back to the cars and head down to the nearest 7 11 for some food and Slurpee (Henry had 2 large ones and he manage to finish them faster then us having one), I was starting to feel some movement in the bowels,it must be the Nasi Lemak from Proton City. So I bought some traditional medicine (Poh Chai Yun) to help relief that and I must say it's not much help, we head for dinner near Batang Kali anyway.
At an old restaurant by the road we stopped for dinner, we placed our order and wait for our food and while waiting a fly flew in to somebody's slurpee and it got stuck, then someone asked me to kill the fly using one of my pyrotechnic tricks I usually perform involving a lighter and an aluminum can which involves holding gas from the lighter in to the can then lighting the mouth so that a jet of flame will shoot out from the can. I never tried it using a slurpee cup but in theory it should work the same but the cup might melt since it's plastic and since it's larger then a soft drink can it should be able to hold more gas and should have a longer and bigger jet of flames. I couldn't resist the idea so without much thinking I start filling the cup with gas from the lighter and try to light it, first time fail, second time didn't work but third time "Woosh!" it lights up! Shooting a jet of flames out of the hole but my thumb was in the way...
I watched my thumb get caught in the flame while my friends laugh at the misfortune of the fly (which didn't die from it) not knowing that I am injured, I was calm then and right after they stop laughing I told them that I got myself burn quite badly and my thumb was white. They instruct me to put cream or toothpaste to cool it while some of them said I should put it in ice (I guess I need to find a friend who is good at first aid) I walk to the payment counter and asked the cashier for toothpaste, she however have a better idea which is to apply honey on the inflicted area she opened a bottle and apply before I can agree to it, I thank her after that and go back to my table and took a sit while holding back my pain however very soon after that, I started to feel weak, my friends kept telling me that my lips were white and that I'm starting to look pale, I told them that my visions are fading very rapidly and I cannot see clearly, I told them that I want to rest in the car and forget about dinner for now but they kept trying to pursued me saying that I should eat and that I'll be alright, I was really hungry but I didn't care about food at that time, I wanted to lie down in my car and rest for a moment so I stood up while I still can see and slowly walk towards my car vision still fading, and then I fainted before I enter the car, luckily my friends were assisting me or I would have fallen flat to the ground, that point on the last thing I remembered was telling them which pocket my car keys were. I think I didn't pass out very long cause when I woke up my friend were pulling me into the car while the entire village came over to see what's going on, some of them were kind enough to offer water and medicine but I was feeling fine except for the pain from my thumb so we head for the clinic right after dinner.

Henry holding my wallet (Don't know why), while I'm in pain.

At the clinic, we were fooling around like monkeys as I moan to my pain while my friends were saying all kind of jokes such as "Too bad Amber Chia not here" and "His thumb is charred grilled and ready to eat, he even added honey!"
When the doctor asked me what had happen, I was too lazy and ashame to tell him the whole story so I just give him the short version, "I got burned by a lighter."
The doctor checked my blood pressure and heart beat, and said that it's all good however he's going to give me 2 jabs. "2 JABS!? Why are you giving me jabs?" I asked him to make things clear plus I'm quite afraid of needles (Hey! I'm honest!), he asked me to lie down and then gave me one jab on my left arm which wasn't that bad, he then asked me to turn over to lie down on my back, as I turn I asked the doctor "Is really necessary to jab me on my butt? Can I have a shorter needle? That one looks long and scary... wait please let me try to relax first, Nooooo!!!"

After leaving the clinic I walked as if I was given an anal probe, and the fact that I now have a pain in the butt and the thumb is still giving me a lot of pain, it really gives me a whole new understanding what the pain relief jab is for.

Honey glazed thumb sausage, I told you it's a sausage fest!

Well, I must say that I learned my lesson, never try that again on a large slurpee cup.

Have a Great Day
