Got Myself A New Disease!

Hi folks, I'm infected with a virus! This virus is very dangerous but not lethal, though don't worry it's difficult to infect others with it. But once you got it, it'll be pretty difficult to control, though unfortunately as of now there's no real cure. Me and the wife suspected something amiss a couple of years back. We didn't exactly understand the symptoms then, but in retrospect it is all clear now.

I was infected by my wife. It turns out she is a carrier of the virus. Though she is only showing minor symptoms of the disease. Hopefully she'll not get worse. I went out last weekend and bought her a temporary vaccine, it was expensive, around RM1500. It'll last 2-3 years before the effect wears off. Hopefully by then, other more cheaper but effective vaccines will be available.

My wife in turns got the virus from her friend in her old office in KLCC. The friend have it much worse, I think she spend near to RM20k in the last 4 years just to hold off the effect of the virus.

While I myself have seen a slightly better effect than her friend but a bit worse than my wife. At the same time I bought for my wife the vaccine, I also bought mine at around RM1600. It seems that different people have different effect and require different combination of vaccines. But I can already feel that the vaccines that I bought isn't quite enough. A stronger dose might be neccesary.

Don't worry dear friends, as far as I can tell, my wife and I have yet to infect other with the virus except for my cousin. I infected him with the virus last year. I pray for the best for him. Anyway, it seems that only certain type of people can get infected with the virus, while others are totally immune to it. It might have to do with our genetics and our lifestyle.

I have to stop writing now, I'll detailed out the virus and the symptoms in later post. But for the time being, I share with you the initial effect of the virus. It will sometime undermine your ability to think clearly.

A Sunday Morning In Bagan Lalang

Went to visit my in-laws this weekend, had a bit of stroll by the beach in the morning. It was low tide, the sea retreated to about 30m away.

The sky was a bit cloudy and there was a slight cool breeze. It was quite

refreshing though a bit grey.

Took my camera and try to compose a few pictures along the way. Got some good pictures but mostly really bland.

Here's a perspective

view of the walk way. I would say that Majlis Perbandaran Sepang did a good job in maintaining the area. Though it can be a bit more cleaner.

Though I can't put all the blame on them. Our society need to be more civil and cleaner in this matter.

But I read a book by Malcolm Gladwell titled 'Tipping Point'. In it there's a chapter

on how the NYPD manage to bring down crime. They started by cleaning the subway! We should try that in Malaysia, clean the walk way and reduce Mat Rempit.

If you don't know where's Bagan Lalang is, it is in the district of Sepang, right

at the border with N.9.

At the beach is a very ambitious project of creating a palm shape chalet development over the water. Which is the background of this picture on the left. It was to emulate the development in Dubai, look at what happen to them in Dubai now.

Hopefully, the development here will end up with a better prospect and future and become and impetus for further development.

Let's cut the crap and find the crab!

Don't be fool by this reasonably composed picture.

I cropped it later.

Another decent compose I think.

The final picture. And this qualify this post as the most picture in a posting.

Hope you enjoyed the pictures.

The Futility of New Years Resolutions

Forget about it. It'll never work. Don't waste time thinking about it. Better spent on something more worthwhile. The more time you spend thinking about it the worse life will be for you. Why even bother trying? It'll come when it comes if it comes. So why bother trying.

You wont change your life, you wont make a difference, you are negligible in the whole scheme of things. In the end all your hopes, wishes, dreams are a mere temporary relief to the drudgery that is life.

If you believe that one man can make a difference. You are dead wrong! One man cannot make a difference. Show me a time when a single person can make a difference, and I'll show you a prophet. You're not one. You'll never will be.

But don't be sad. Be mean. That's the only way to be relatively happy. By making more people around you more sad than you. THe more you make people sad, the happier you'll be. THe sadder, the happier. It's all relativity.

Trust me on this. I read Hawkings, the dude on the chair. Being on the chair makes him right. You can't contradict to a person on a chair.
