Ouch!! That Hurts!!

Today, for the first time...I went to the hospital to do a health check. I've never done one before. The last time I did a medical check up was in 2003...when I got a new job and I never remembered of any blood samples taken. What made me change my mind??? Coz my hubby got a free health check voucher and he gave it to me.

So back to my story. The health check was simple....they only needed my urine sample and my blood sample. The urine sample was easy.....but the blood sample?? Was easier said than done. uhuk. It took like 4 different person to finally draw any blood from my blood vein.

The first person, couldn't find any of my veins. According to her, my blood vein/vessel is too small and fine to be detected. I asked her whether it has anything to do with me feeling very cold at that time. She said no...I was born with it. Yeah...maybe with my size...I don't need to have that big of blood vein/vessel anyway.

So, the second person came in. Poke me with a needle....finally...there was blood.....but...only like a teaspoon of blood. She tried to pull and push back the syringe to draw more blood. That seems to be failing too. The only successful thing it manage it do was...give me pain....a bit at least. If I can pass the pain that my "monthly visitor" gave me..I am sure as hell I can pass this pain. Then she tried again on my right hand. It was even worst...no blood came out at all.

End up, they send me to the lab...and told me to tell the lab technician that they couldn't draw any blood from me. So...I arrive at the lab...and took my number. After waited for a while, a doctor called me in. eheheheheheh.....he too was unable to locate my blood vessel. At first, he thought it was a success..but than the blood only took a peak of the outside of the body view than goes back in. At this point, I was bursting with laughter although the pain was unbearable...and I was holding my fist very tight. Even the doctor laughed..until a nurse came in and asked what was happening. ahahahahaha. The reason I was laughing is because I was looking at the doctor's face expression when the blood came back in...and I was thinking to myself....even my body knows that it was lack of blood and it refuse to share. wakakakakaka

Then finally, a cute nurse...finally found the right blood vein that agreed to gave away some blood samples. What did I get?? Two plasters..one on my right hand...and one on my left hand as souvenirs. wakakakakakakaka. Up till now, I can still feel the pain as I lift up my hands. But I take it as a funny experience..not a harmful one.

I told my mom my experience...she said she had the same problem too. It took nine different syringe to finally find her vein. I guess small vein runs in the family then. ehehehe. The results??? Next Monday. Hope nothing negative about it.

BEWARE!! Toll Fraud!!

As we are all aware....the toll gate collection can be up to millions or was it billions of Ringgit a year. And yet, the toll rate still increase time to time. And we have to bare all of this while our income is at a stagnant level..shit!! It is ridiculous to increase the rate when everyday the number of cars passing by is so many. Last time, I've received and email on how this toll gate attendant kept the collection money to themselves as an additional income to their salary. And this normally applies to toll without tickets..the ones..where you pay as you go through. I myself will have to pay RM3.20 everyday just to commute from home to office a day. At first I was a bit sceptical...but after a few incidents and observation..I find that this whole fraud thing might be true. So..here are my theories:-

1. Sometimes...the toll bar is always up. This indicates that, it doesn't matter if you pay the toll or not....the bar can be lifted up with a push of a button. So, this means..the toll attendant can take our money..and simply push the button to lift the bar up without having to record the collection. Except for maybe if we asked for a receipt.
2. OK..so I asked for receipt..but there was one time where the toll attendant gave a me a receipt for a taxi which was half the value of the amount I've paid for. So this means..he recycled the receipt.
3. One time, I have ran out of small change and there was only a RM50 note that I withdraw earlier. After searching high and low for coins....I can only come out with 65 sen. So as I stopped at the RM1.60 toll.....

Me: (while giving him the note to pay) Sorry I don't have any small change

Attendant: Sorry I don't have any small change to give back to you.

(Isn't that peculiar??..hmmmmm??)

Me: But I only have 65 sen worth of coins

Attendant: It's ok. You can just pass through

Me: Are you sure??

Attendant: Yes..just pass through

Me: Really?? Here is the 65 sen. TQ

So either he is such a kind man who paid for me for the toll he is supposed to collect...or there are no way of actually tracing the amount of collection made. Which one do you think??

As for me, the easiest way to make sure our toll payment goes directly to the toll concession company is by using Touch N Go or SmartTag at these tolls. There you go, you be the judge...and take action for yourself.

Remember This??!

Do any of you still remember this delicious 10 sen ice cream?? eheheheh. I think most of us who were born in 1970's or 1980's had been addicted to it at some point of time. I still remember, everyday after school, I will always buy this ice cream. It may not be as delicious as a Walls Cornetto Ice Cream...but it is affordable and a thirst quencher. uhuhuhuhu

Today, as my hubby and I was buying our lunch at a stall nearby our house, we saw this one person holding on to the ice cream...and suddenly..all the memories came back into my head. Then.....

Me: Uish..sedapnya aiskrim tuh..ingat tak masa sekolah sekolah dulu kita selalu beli aiskrim seposen nih?

(translation :- Uish...that ice cream looks nice. Do you remember buying those during our primary school days?)

Hubby: Yerlah..mana dorang beli yek??
(translation:- Yes....where do you think they bought it from?)

Me: Must be from this shop.

Hubby: Berenti..berenti..saya pegi beli.
(translation: Stop..stop...I'll go and buy some)

And....he bought like 10 of them. You know something?? After like 18 years.....the price is still 10 sen a piece and it tasted the same. uhuhuhuhu :P

What Happens In Vegas - A Must Watch Movie

I can't stop laughing from the first 2 minutes the movie starts till the end of the movie. It is a combination of hilarious and sweet events. Worth to watch at the cinema. Well, what more can you expect from Ashton and Cameron?? I just love Ashton and with Cameron besides him.....nothing could go wrong. ahahahahahah. This is definately a must see movie. I'm still laughing while I was driving back home after watching it.

So, what are you waiting for?? Go and watch it lah...eheheheh

It's Good To Catch Up

Since I left Uni like 5 years ago.... OMG!!!! Has it been that long????!!! Time does flies by so fast doesn't it?? OK...now..back to my story. Since I left Uni....I seldom see my ex uni gf...not that often anyway. Well....with each and everyone of us have a handfull of things to do with most of us already have family. So, last friday...just for fun..I went to lunch with a few of them..since they work nearby. 2 hours is never enough to catch up.....but we did make it worth the time. eeheheheheh. So many things to talk about. You knowlah kan.....girls....normallah tu. I think the entire McDonald can hear what we were talking about...ahahahahahahah

Last time maybe we might talk about fashion, subjects, lecturer and etc...but now..most of us talked about our marriage life and what had happened in the last few months. It was so funny to find out how similar husbands can be. One of my fren, Elle..lost her dad last month. I felt very sorry for her. I myself couldn't imagine how will it feel if it happens to me. Furthermore, with the unique relationship...yes let me repeat that...unique relationship I have with my father and all....I am really not sure how would I react if I got the news. Will I be sad?? Or maybe have no feeling at all?? hmmmm

Girls...it was fun doing this. Maybe we should do this often. eheheheheh. Until next time ;)

When Your Husband is Sportsman of The Year..:P

I know that marriage need hard work, patient and a lot of compromising. uhuhuhuhu. I understand that...and with the relationship coming to 11 years now....I am used to it by now. ehehehehehe. Who says that love is always sweet? :P

But this one thing.....I really really cannot tahan. My hubby is sportman of the year!!! Who gave him the award?? I gave it to him. Why?? Because...he is a sports freak....uhuhuhu. Most men, they watch football, rite?? Not my beloved dearest hubby. He just love sports soooooo much..that he can easily watch any sports channel on the television. He will even switch to the Tamil news to watch the sports news...if the other channel is on advertisement. Hmmm....cute isn't it?? So where does that leaves me?? On the side...playing his PSP or chatting on the net. I can't even watch my favorite show if he is in front of the TV...not unless he is into that show as well such as CSI, Prison Break and...Desperate Housewives (at least until Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles aired on AXN..now I only get to watch half of the show). uwaaaaaaa!!!!!

Actually, there is a solution to this problem....and it will cost me RM899 or is it RM499 now?? The answer is ASTRO MAX. Hubby!!! I want ASTRO MAX....please, please, pleeeeeaaaaassssseeeeee.... :D

Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy!

It feels like just a few days ago I went to Kuching to celebrate my good fren, Carol wedding on 15th March. Then she flew to Bahrain to follow her beloved hubby who's working there. Miss her a lot. Thanks to the technology advancement, I still can keep in touch with her through the amazing MSN messenger. ehehehehe. Not to forget the wonderful roaming sms. uhuhuh. It has been almost two months since she left for Bahrain..and from reading her blog, I can see that she is having fun there.

Today, I got the best news from her. She is pregnant!!! Yey!! HAPPY!! HAPPY!! JOY!! JOY!! Actually, I've been waiting for three days now for her to confirm the news. At last!! Just can't wait for her to come back to KL and go "baby shopping" with her. I felt like hugging her and jump in happiness. I am so thrilled and so so so so happy for her.

Carol, congratulations again!! Take good care of yourself...and will be waiting for you to come back. Love u lots!! Muah!! Muah!! C u soon.
