Doc I think I have Thrombosis!!!!!!!!


I was talking to a friend the other day about my arm. I’ve been complaining to them about how I don’t feel comfortable whenever I lift my right arm. I was in a complete clueless of what was going on to my right hand. Lot of assumption and educated guess had been made to find out the real cause of the problem, some of them are completely BULLSHAT but some of them too are logically accepted to my silly thought. One of the most believed to be the cause of my problem is Thrombosis. What is thrombosis???
Not the actual pic of thrombosis, this is a pic of Hughes syndrome

DVT-Deep Vein Thrombosis

If you are still remember we have learnt this in Biology form 5, well before this I wanna be doctor but eventually ended up taking TESL...that is what we called IRONY. Getting back to our real track, thrombosis is a type of serious medical problem caused by a clot generally known as blood clot that prevents the blood from flowing normally. Scary isn’t it? Yup it was so scary when having this kind of thought that always alerted your mind to act fast. The old adage is that ‘prevention is better than cure’ so I straightaway heading to nearest clinic. 

I registered myself at the counter and after waiting for a while, the nurse called my name to doctor’s room. I closed the door and sit on a chair beside him.

Doctor: Hi, good morning.

Me: Morning doc.

Doctor: so what is your problem?

Me: Doc, I have a issue with my arm where I felt a short, sharp pain whenever I
        raise up my arm and I think I have thrombosis!!! 

Doctor: are you sure?? *Mouth agape*

Me: not really, but there’s possibility...

Doctor: Ok let me check your arm first...

  ***After a while***

Doctor: No, you are not suffering of Thrombosis, Have you ever been to the gym?

Me: Fuhh! Yes I’ve been to the gym for nearly a year.

         Why are you asking me this question?

Doctor: From what I’ve observed you had a torn muscle in your arm.
 
 
It’s not thrombosis but it’s a torn muscle... Well according to doc, torn muscle is not so serious I just need some rest and I can’t go for lifting weight, I have to rest my triceps for about a couple of weeks so that the injured muscle can recover and would allow me again to go for my zen hour. So I’ve been prescribed few medicines, well this medicines were prescribed to me to help me to eradicate the deposited of the blood around the torn muscle, since the blood is calcium, it had formed a thick, hard small round-shape which can be felt whenever I touched my arms and it’s painful..(ok it’s really not that painful...the last part is written to exaggerate)

The Irreplaceable


Last week was a week that full of hectic, hustle and bustle of a life as student as we were being tested on 4 papers which are Language Description, Language Development, English Studies and last but not least Social Studies. The examination went on from last Monday until last Thursday and in those days I haven’t been to the gym and this had actually driven me to a great ordeal as I couldn’t get my ass sweat. I could feel enthusiasm flowing over myself when I get sweat on the treadmill and work out is one of my favourite hobbies; in fact it is my zen hour.

Once I got home, I drank some protein shake and straightaway hitting my mini gym which is also known as my room. Well I don’t have to eat up the fuel first as I’ve already eaten at the cafe earlier on along with Iniyan, Joseph, Vehnoo, Adam and Halberth so I have enough energy to kick-start my work out session. When I was on the treadmill I could hear my phone was beeping alerted me that there was a message received. I stopped the treadmill and scanned through my inbox. There was a message from Syakirah Basri (The wicked waka) sounded like: *Hav u heard abot Iniyan? He died in a car crash. He and a science student died on the spot, Joseph is still in coma and Shu Yin got some injuries*. At that time I was actually gasping for air for not having enough air from the vigorous activity on the treadmill and also for not believing for what she had told me. I eventually sat on a chair in front of a mirror and the image of Iniyan, Joseph and Shu Yin reeled into my thought. I could remember our last time eating together at the cafe that afternoon, it was just few hours ago Iniyan, Joseph and me having a lunch together and now they were gone!!! Joseph had gone too at 8 pm followed by Shu Yin at 12.00 mid night.

The following day we gathered at our IPG and there was a complete mayhem however we eventually had came up with the idea to visit the bereaved and their remains to pay our obeisance.  Mr. Zaki (language description’s lecturer) was a very supportive lecturer as he got on the bus along with us all the way from Terengganu to Taiping and Penang.

As soon as we arrived at Taiping, we had stopped at Iniyan’s house, however we were late to see him as he had been cremated and we were talking to his family about his kindness and his father was the one whom very upset about his lost, while the mother was speechless and sat by his picture. Some of the girls consoled her for not being too sad over her lost and we kept talking of how their lost affected us in our studies as he was a very studious and he had inspired all of us to keep on our reading as knowledge would only can be enhance through reading.

After that we were heading to Bukit Mertajam to pay our last respect to the late Joseph. Upon seeing him lying unconsciously in the coffin, lot of us couldn’t bear the tears as he was a very good student and love to joke around. We missed the moment he came up with the silly idea and cracked our heart for his funny idea and his kelatanese slang was effing funny. For the first time in my life, I made obeisance to my own friend and right after that he was being sent to the crematorium to be cremated and after that, we headed to Shu Yin’s house at Butterworth. I do not know her as much as I know Iniyan and Joseph, I was a little frustrated for not knowing her well but still as her classmate and friend I still felt sorry for the lost.

In a day, I’ve lost 3 friends,

For the first time in my life, I’ve attended 3 funerals of my own friend

I’ve had enough, I just couldn’t afford anymore

However I need to bear in my mind, DEATH IS CERTAIN

That’s all for now and whatever happens the memory of being friend to Iniyan, Joseph and Shu Yin will always be etched on my heart....

Vengeful fate


After having my dinner last night, I grabbed the whole bunch of my car keys and made a phone call to Umi and it sounded like..

Me: Helo assalamualaikum, umi nak balik rumah ni...lecturer tak masuk kelas esok sebab 
lecturer bagi peluang suruh belajar sebab dah nak exam

Umi: Tak payahlah duduk sana jer lah....belajar sane la

Me: Ala nak balik jugak...tak syok la duk sini

Umi: Doh balik lah....dop dengar kata orang nih

Knowing the time was getting late, I packed up my stuffs like English studies note, grammar book and social studies note (*nak study siot*)...

 I clutched my car ( kete manual jer), and rocketed to my home. Well, honestly I said I just wanna be home as soon as possible and one thing that I used to do just before taking off to anywhere, and on that vengeful night it was seemed like to be forgotten and I really did not realize it.

As usual, I used the same road to get home, I opened my window while enjoying to the song “Need you now” by Lady Antebellum and really it is a nice song and sipping the fresh cold breeze through my window was really a good thing happened to me.

 From a distance I could see a bright glimpse of blinking blue light and this light was really familiar but still I do nothing about it and keep on pressing my gas pedal... as soon as that I just realised that it was a group of policemen doing their usual stuff, -ROAD BLOCK- and I tried to act cool as much as I could and it does work for me at that time, but still I could feel something bad just about to happen and I kept forcing my half-witted brain to think if there were anything wrong I did, and after a while, a policeman approached my car, asked me to switch off the song which I had listened to that time, and he asked me for my driving licence.
 
I handed him politely, and he squinted at my licence as there was quite limited source of light and around 30 seconds, he asked me to pull over my car by signalling his bright-blinking-annoyed-my-eyes torchlight and all of a sudden the thought which reminded me to my wrongdoing had attacked me profusely and I was like *Damn! Bullshit! WTF!* 

How stupid I was for driving under a DEAD driving licence, and also for not wearing seatbelt....wasn’t that the most-stupidest thing that you guys ever heard?? Well that’s me another silly boy called SADDLY SALJIE..

Picture taken at: http://993c4s.com/advise/tips-to-beat-speeding-ticket/


I pulled over my car and waited in there anxiously, at those moment I could hear my mum’s voice calling my full name( siap dengan nama bapak and nama datuk,nenek sume keturunan lah)...well I bet you guys knew what i’m trynna tell you guys here.. well, getting back to that policeman, he evilly opened my rear door and again scanned through my car inside-out like the car was belong to a criminal who had just been caught after a long escape, and he was actually leaving through my notes and only then, he opened his mouth

Policeman: Sekolah lagi?

Me: Tak encik, saya sekarang belajar kat IPG

Policeman: Owh. Sekarang ni awak tahu tak ape kesalahan awak?

Me: Saya tak tahu. (*Pura-pura blur* sebab nak raih simpati polis tuh)

Policeman: kesalahan awak ada 2, ptama tak pakai tali pinggang keselamatan n kedua memandu dengan lessen dah mati

Me: Owh yewke saya tak perasan lesen saya dah mati( I again lied to him)

Policeman: Awak kene alert la dengan mende-mende camni

Me:Baik Encik
 
Policeman: Sekarang saya nak saman awak, lessen mati saman Rm 300, tak pakai tali pinggang keledar Rm80 tapi saya charge awak utk satu kesalahan saje iaitu tak pakai tali pinggang keledar.

Me: Tq Encik.

 Policeman: Bayar dalam mase 30 hari.

Me: Terima Kasih Encik.
 
I thanked to Allah for not allowing me to wear seatbelt which I used to wear all the time, but this time I did not wear it and it meant for a good thing because if i wore seatbelt, the policeman would most probably give me the ticket for driving under DEAD licence which I need to pay RM300 and of course for sure I have to tell mum about that because I love my money and I aint giving my 300 bucks just for that bloody ticket issued by a policeman but in this case I dont have to tell my mum about this as it only cost for only RM80. I’ll pay on my own.

Moral of the story: Well all I can say is that I’ve had a great experience and thanked to Allah for still giving me opportunity in a desperate situation, and also not forgotten that never afraid to say Yes to No, because there’s always a bright thing ahead of us.

“When your mother told you NO, your father told you NO, the teacher told you NO, or the people told you NO, if you were a good little boy or girl, you listened to the word NO and stopped what were you doing. That is why 98% of adults are conditioned to stop when they hear the word NO. Quitters do not get anywhere. You will not be successful if you listen to NOS.” – Donald Trumph.
P/s: Maybe some of you guys do not see eye to eye to this (above) statement by Donald Trumph but what I’m really wanna share with you guys here is that never afraid to admit mistake or commit mistake, never afraid to say yes to your parents’ NOs, (*maybe you guys think that aku ni suka lawan cakap mak bapak, bukan suka lawan tapi benda-benda kecik tu tak ape untuk kite deny kan ataupun buat cause learn from mistake is the best lesson and jangan la terlalu bodoh sampai mak bapak cakap, ‘Jangan terjun bangunan tapi ko terjun jugak sebab konon-kononnye nak ikut prinsip Yes to No nih, itu boleh dikategorikan sebagai bodoh,bangam and sewaktu dengannye.*)

Adioz people..and wish for my luck in my mock examination tomorrow....

Current emotion: Bloodless, clueless...(Takut nak exam)....goodbye guys..:-)

Walk in style Part 1


Hye guys, this week is one of the busiest week...

but still I will share something with you guys..

Well, this week is very busy because Im gonna have my mock examination next week...*Sigh*

But I won’t let it jeopardize my entry for this week, whatever happens I will still update my story on this. Well I love fashion so freaking bad and I pretty sure that lots of you guys out there are also love fashion...ermm Im actually talking to you boys not girls sorry because today I’m gonna talk on men’s fashion.


Nowadays, many terms like ubersexual, metrosexual had been introduced to the world, and I expect a lot more to come in the future. Today’s men are very sophisticated in terms of everything and they are now actually started to be very concern to what are they wearing, what are they doing, health, skin care and a whole lot more and because all of that, men’s fashion nowadays on a great demand. Alfred Dunhill, Hugo Boss, Lacoste, Giorgio Armani, Brioni just to name a few of those fabulous international brands but still I can’t get those brands as they are cost like millions to me...but one thing for sure Im gonna have them one day...pretty soon I hope.




Well getting back to our real track about men ‘s fashion, Men nowadays are all educated, intelligent, versatile, and knowing what they want in their life. Here’s what you need to inject a modish elegance. In my opinion, versatile and cool guys are not nerd and no matter where he go, he never forget to use cologne. The most amusing cologne that would be perfect for every guy is Sean John, I Am King as it infusing a unique blend of refreshing, seductive and woody notes, which people around you would crazily go mad whenever he/she caught the whiff of it. This fragrance is sophisticatedly mannish without being overbearing. It’s perfect for use during day or night for any occasions so it wont be that waste to get it, so guys get it now...last time I checked ‘I Am King’ 50 ml cost around RM 205..





Next, sunglasses are functional. But did you also know that they serve as the perfect accompaniment to the latest trends? A pair of those examples (above) is a streamlined fusion of charm and rebellion. Sunglasses are traditionally designed to protect our eyes from the direct sunlight which could harm the retina. But, nowadays sunglasses are also would be a perfect companion when you are driving in the day and being in the beach. A guy with a sunglass is often considered as cool, easy-going person but never ever wear sunglasses when you are in mall coz it is disaster!!!

Well for the time being,  I think that’s all for now as I got something to do, but I promise to get back on this very soon.

Adioz people!!
