Epidemic...
We all know H1N1 virus, the new deadly virus spread worldwide has reached to an alarming state in Malaysia. News from the media has stated double figure of suspected cases here. Hopefully the figure will only decrease till the end. Recent years, we had heard several epidemic virus being spread around the world; endangering our lives. H5N1, SARS, Nipah virus and JE; just to name a few. You don’t find these years way back.
Anyway, the situation has led me to a deep thought. From another aspect I’ve seen, life in this world is temporary (just like what the Bible has stated) for we mortals. People chase for materialism and beauty but all this couldn’t be brought in after life. Just imagine; you might be the smartest, the richest, or the best looking person ever on earth but when health’s affected, all this will not bring much meaning anymore. People strive with tremendous stress too achieve great things. They might succeed, or they might not. Some things are left neglected in the end as time passed...
Maybe this internship has led me to see life with lease stress. How some people have chosen stress throughout and some not. I like the simple minimal stress-life. It’s just so fun where you don’t really have to think too much technically. Any free time can go for futsal or badminton. (Exercise + social = healthy) No problem to ‘yumcha’ with friends also. Though money kept flowing out and no income to fill in but still the excitement is there. (Broke, very poor now…) Apart from that, back to the point; just like the epidemic that has landed on mankind, you might have all you think you wanted but if this virus falls on you, you’re doomed. Therefore, just a simple message to all, life in this world is temporary. Live on happily, do things that will bring happiness around each other. Take good care of your health. Live life with no regrets!

Happy Mama's dAy...
Wishing all mama's in the world for their wonderful day. A blessant mother's day! The proud creation of God that completes the world; she who brought us all to the world. So, how shall you people celebrate? May the day be a meaningful one to every soul! A small yet meaningful gift might be nice, a tastylicious homemade mama's cake or even a sincere yet lovely hug to her will do just fine. Cherish the moment and have a great day!

Antique; those were the days...
My brother and I did a massive clean-up at our granpa's house. He's already in the late 80's and thus, staying alone will be very dangerous. Therefore, the house will be sold for good and he'll be travelling around to enjoy life! We went to the rear and the alley to clear up stacks of unknowns, wrapped with very old and dusty black plastic bags only to find more and more cockroaches with their eggies tombed inside. I found that most of the equipments are really history. You can't buy those now; do take a look at them...
old oven... with pressure meter... seen b4?
steam cooker... can steam 'cha siew pao'...
a very old timer... do your house have this?
charcoal-fired steamboat pot... generation gap?
and this... a very weird looking pot... what are you thinking?
like this??? hehe... it's just an old medicine cooking pot... =P
and finally, what will this be??? =.^!
I'll post up the answer in the next post. In the meantime, to all our KS-gang or anyone who would like to view our Ipoh Chicken trip last week, do visit Crusader and Partial's blogs. Looking forward to meet up with all Ipoh friends who will be back for semester break. Futsal futsal!!! ^^
