A day of wingman duty
Went to Penang with Tatt, Nishpal and KC yesterday. Was actually gonna hang out with Nishpal only but Tatt needed us for backup. So wingman duty it was. Here was the mission:
A girl he wants to hit on, Natasha, registered for this modeling gig and he was suppose to go with her. And there is where we come in. He doesn't dare to go alone and we were his backup. But we had to take public transport because Tatt didn't have any wheelz (my dad offered to let me use his but I was like, nah it's okay we're going by public transport, turns out I should've accepted the offer)
So we met up at Tatt's after 1:30 and took a bus to Convent Butterworth, where he was suppose to meet up with Nat. Found a bottle of Mountain Dew in the 7eleven there :-D
So we waited for Nat, and sent her friend off and after plenty of delays we finally ended up in Penang somewhere around 4 >.<
Honestly at this time I was really wondering why on earth did I agree to go out. Dang...
After a whole lot of pointless wandering, we finally settled down at Mr Pots to have a drink and some chat time. KC and I had cocktails (him a screwdriver and I had a Malibu with pineapple juice) while Nishpal had Tiger beer and Tatt had coffee and Nat had this purple drink (blueberry I think). KC's face got all red lol.
Then we walked from Gurney to the Esplanade for the Vasakhi open house where Nishpal was suppose to meet a friend. Then we sat around, had some food and decided to bunk off at 8:30. Tatt and Nat went off twenty minutes earlier but they where still there when we arrived at the jetty. Take that *pap*
We took a lot of pics but they're all in Tatt's camera so no pics in yet :-P
Well KC finally decided to come clean and tell me what was happening and all. Turns out Chew Yi told the girls in class about me and what I do. So I got labelled freak, maniac, obsessive and all sorts of bad labels by them girls. That was probably enough for her to crack and start blocking me and all. Ah, I don't really know what to do. Am I obsessive? Am I a freak? Maybe, maybe not.

Another Day Out
Yay! Finally watched “Clash of the Titans” in 3D! But sadly, even though I anticipated it for so long, it wasn’t much special. Yes indeed, it was a nice movie. But 3D? No thank you. It almost wasn’t in 3D at all. More like a HD movie than 3D.
Well Tatt was suppose to get the tickets. But he pulled out because he wanted to go to Convent Butterworth’s Sports Day in some obscure unknown B.M. Stadium (He wants to hit on this 15 year old Eurasian girl from Convent Butterworth who just so happens to be my sister’s friend and my sister’s classmate’s cousin). So anyway I called up Marrtin and Vimalan (I promised Marrtin that I’d call him) but they decided not to skip school. So I called Su-Lyn Jie instead. Actually I was like, should I call her? Should I not? And finally when I decided I forgot that I saved her number in the other sim card. So by the time I asked her, it was after 6 am in the morning lol. Well surprisingly, she agreed :-D
Well after the movie (which to me, was a disappointment because it almost wasn’t 3D) we walked around before going down to Big Apple to get donuts. She got a green tea donut (if I’m not wrong, she said she likes green tea donuts). Then we walked around again and chatted about all sorts of stuff and then went to Dome for lunch. Actually it was my suggestion because it’s been like a ritual to me: Every time I go to Gurney, I’d go to Dome for lunch and order a glass of red. The red wasn’t really good. I think the bottle must have been opened some time ago. Either that or the Vella I had last month just spoiled my taste buds. It wasn’t a very expensive lunch, less than RM90. I paid with a RM100 note and left RM10 as a tip (Usually I’ll just leave the change, but I needed the RM1 notes to pay for the car park). Su-Lyn Jie was like, wow you spend money like water… Well what can I say? It’s actually a habit. She pocketed the 10 that was meant for the tip though XD
After that I dropped her off at her home and went to tuition. Bad move. I should’ve stayed at my grandma’s house instead because I was so friggin tired that I couldn’t concentrate much in tuition. After I dropped her off I kept wondering: was I boring? Did she enjoy herself? I don’t really know. Honestly I felt I was a little boring because most of the time I was like, where do you wanna go? What do you wanna do? Let’s walk around and look at stuff. OMG, can you imagine how boring it would be if a guy asks you out and doesn’t plan anything beforehand??? I mean, I didn’t expect to do much, because when I go out with Chew Yi it would usually be just for lunch and nothing else. Hope it’s not as awful that I’m afraid it would be. To me, it was a fairly nice day because I got to go out, watch a movie and have lunch with a friend. But did I bore her to death? I dunno. And did I seem like I was not paying attention to her when she was talking? I dunno as well, but sometimes I would look inattentive even though I’m listening carefully.
Well after all those worries passed, I was hit by a weird sense of guilt. Damn I tell you, why does this have to happen? It’s not like Chew Yi is my girlfriend or anything, but somehow at times like these (eg. When I was texting with Pei Feng, after spending the afternoon with Su-Lyn Jie) I always get hit by a wave of guilt. Man, I must be going crazy. But that’s just life. I gotta get used to it. After Chew Yi “disappeared”, I just couldn’t get myself to hit on other girls nor get close to them. I mean, it’s like there’s some sort of curse or something which says I must only be close to Chew Yi and like no one else but her. Sad, ain’t it?
Well, I found an envelope on my bed before going to bed. IT WAS MY INTERVIEW LETTER XDDDDDDD
YEA BABY!
Can’t really believe I got selected for the interview! Ok here’s a recap: I applied for the public services scholarship last year (almost 1 year ago) to study in the Sungai Buloh health college. After waiting for nearly a year I practically gave up, because it was already February and they didn’t even invite me for the interview. But 2 months after writing off my chances of being called up (actually I was just waiting for the end of the month to re-register for the scholarship), I got the interview letter. Call that luck, call that divine intervention, call that anything you want, but 1 thing I know, this is going to be the start of a new life. I’m going to ace that test and interview and I’m going off to college in the midyear intake. Who would’ve thought my life would be this great? Wait a minute, it has been great all along! :-D

Chicken pox, VZV and immunes systems
Well anyway, COULD CHICKEN POX KILL SOMEONE???
If you ask me, the answer, yes. It’s definitely a yes. But how is that possible? If you tell that to every single doctor in your neighbourhood and they’ll probably call you crazy. Let’s start from the main subject: Chicken pox. Chicken pox is a HIGHLY CONTAGEOUS illness caused by the varicella zoster virus (VZV). Note that it’s highly contagious. Therefore, almost every time you go near someone with chicken pox, you’ll get infected. But it’s a common knowledge that one doesn’t get chicken pox twice, so I guess you’ll be asking me: What nonsense are you talking about?
Well dear readers, we INDEED get infected by the VZV almost every time we go near someone with chicken pox. But the reason why we don’t get chicken pox? Easy: After the first time we get chicken pox, the lymphocytes in our body will form memory cells, which, when we get infected by the same virus again, will act very much quickly compared to the first time. Its’ reaction towards the VZV is so fast that all the VZV gets destroyed before you see tell-tale signs and symptoms. That is why you usually can’t get infected twice. Usually can’t? Yes indeed, usually can’t. Not always. Why? Pretty simple: It’s also the reason why chicken pox can be fatal.
Due to the efficiency of our immune system, the memory cells act so fast that it can deactivate the VZV before you body shows any signs of infection. So how do you get it for a second time? Think carefully, and you will come up with only 1 explanation: When your immune system is spoiled. Once your immune system stops functioning properly, you will start getting infected by even the weakest virus which usually gets destroyed by the lymphocytes in your body. So when will our immune system break down? Ask a normal person and he or she will tell you it’s when you are sick or have a fever (trust me, most people will say that, including an ex-classmate who scored A1 in the biology in the SPM). The actual answer is when you get Acute Immuno Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), of course. It’s pretty complicated to explain how the HIV virus deactivates your T-lymphocytes here, because I doubt most of the readers of this blog (if there are any) would know what I’m talking about, except for Katherine probably (I think she might be studying medicine, but she might not be following my blog anymore because I cuss at KC in a comment lol). So if the VZV enters your body when your immune system is down, you’ll get chicken pox again, which can lead to things like pneumonia if the virus isn’t dealt with. Ta Da… Impressive nonsense isn’t it? But honestly, if you have AIDS, I doubt you’ll die of chicken pox (or worrying about dying of chicken pox) anyway so everything I said is probably useless and unnecessary >.<
Mind if anyone blast me for being misguided or verify my statements?

Movies and a question that got me thinking hard...
Today I watched “How to Train Your Dragon” at Sunway. I planned to watch it in 3D on Monday but because of the ferry I was late to collect my ticket and my booking expired so I had to watch “Just another Pandora’s Box” because the theater hall was full when I got there. Both movies were great. Well this afternoon just as the movie was coming to an end, Mels texted me and asked me if one could die from chicken pox. Mind her, she’s always going about how she wants to die and how life sucks (To make matters worse, her best friend Ngee May is also the same >.<). Well anyway I can’t say that she’s overreacting, because I’m very much better off than she is. The fact that her mum passed away when she was little and she has a live in aunt (Trust me, I wouldn’t mind if any of my aunts stay under the same roof as me, but somehow every friends I have who live with their aunt have bad experiences) and has this kidney problem which caused her to miss her SPM last year and as a result she has to repeat a year. I’ve never had a life like that before so I won’t comment on it even though she’s a real pessimist. Although I dare say I would fare much better than her if I was put into her shoes (an inflated ego and the reliance on peers for support rather than my family is the secret), you can’t really blame her as she’s probably got her pessimistic and doom-saying attitude after all those hard knocks in her life (Try to beat that or stop acting like a loser KC). As for her friend Ngee May, I don’t know so I won’t comment. She might actually have a worse life than I do anyway.
Well anyway, she asked me if chicken pox could kill someone if it went untreated. I thought she had a friend with chicken pox and wanted to catch it so she could die. So I told her that it can kill. It was suppose to be a joke at first, but after hitting the send button, it suddenly hit me. Can it really kill someone? Honestly, that simple (some would call it stupid and obvious) question, it actually fired up my brain cells and I started to think. Was it really possible? I’m going to post it in a separate post because it’s too long. It might be a bit controversial though. But still it’s logical, although unnecessary.
Side note: KC likes to brand himself as a thinker and say that I’d never have the mind of a thinker but I realized that he’s actually an Aristotelian; someone who explains about a certain phenomena based on thought alone, without any proper research and solid evidence, and forms various hypothesizes. In contrast, I am someone who tries to explain something based on theories proven by others. Therefore in a way, the both of us are thinkers, except that he thinks of what might be possible, while I think of what is possible. Well you can’t blame him, given his limited knowledge on science. Well, he’s not totally hopeless in science (he has an interest in physics and astronomy and is good in mechanical stuff. Betcha he can build a robot if you give him the resources), but he’s more arts oriented (note his unlimited imagination. He is probably a male version of Alice and has his own wonderland) and due to his lack in knowledge in other parts of science except for physics and astronomy, he often has to think of imaginary hypothesis to explain any simple phenomena, like if he sees lights in the sky he’ll say it’s a UFO instead of an airplane (okay, that’s exaggerating, but you get the picture). He’ll definitely kill all his patients if he was a doctor lol. But he’ll do well as a researcher if he can get real results to back his hypothesizes, that is.
So it turns out Mels has this infection with red spots all over her and some breathing problems. Don’t really know what it is though, but it sure isn’t AIDS anything chronic and incurable. There’s a very tiny chance that it might be allergy though. Whatever it is, I hope it’s not life threatening (I doubt it is, but who knows since I didn’t do an actual diagnosis of her).

You aint never been on a REAL road trip before
Trust me, you havent. At least not unless you've been on one with me and Tatt. Here's a bit of introduction (Last time someone who read this thought that Tatt was my previous school). Tatt is a big guy we call Phat Tatt who looks like one of those creatures from the Planet of Apes. He loves to cuss and show the universal hand signal. All his bad ways aside, he's a real great cook (trust me, I've tasted some stuff) and he's studying some culinary diploma and loves to eat Char Siu.
So anyway the both of us planned to go over to Kampar to see Chew (privacy protected in case any more weird guys disturb her). We holla-ed at KC and Dan and Shan but none of them could come. KC said he had to take care of his house and Dan had class (physics) and Shan said he's going to Penang with Mitleshwaran (his lil bro) and even if they weren't his parents wouldn't allow him. Of course, no one's parents would allow it. That's why Tatt and I just asked permission to go out without telling where XD
So we were travelling on the freeway (pretty smooth drive) until the Taiping highway before we took a break (my Kancil 660 had been going around 120km/h for the last 90 minutes and it was starting to feel powerless). After a 30 minute break (and a lot of Tatt's sandwiches) we made our way to the Ipoh Highway. Then everything started to go wrong lol.
Chew gave us a call and Tatt passed the phone to me, who was driving, and caused me to miss a turn and I was bz talking, n missed another turn, and I drove into a tol (thought there was a U-turn there) which prompted us to drive against the flow of traffic (try to beat this, theres even a video of it) before taking another wrong turn and almost going to Sitiawan (Yay! Fuzhou territory!) and finally an old man at the Caltex station gave us directions to the highway. Turns out we weren't suppose to exit the highway yet. So anyway we turned out, then went ahead and turned into the Tambun exit (We got scared when we saw "Cameron Highlands: 2km") and made a turn and came out (Chew was like, WHAT HOW DID YOU GUYS END UP THERE???)
So anyway we finally found our way to the Gopeng exit (didn't expect it to be THAT far). The entire trip there was more than 3 hours (30 minutes was used to find our way when we were lost n another 30 minutes 4 a rest at Taiping). Met up with Chew at the Pasar Malam. Tehn after walking around (I actually saw a girl who looked like Chew Yi! Except that this girl was plump. Would look exactly like Chew Yi if taht girl lost some weight). After that we went to Chew's house (Wow 3 storey corner house! But she isn't the owner, she's just renting a room lol). Then we chatted and chatted and la la la all about our old days and friends. Chew had this Hello Kitty bed sheet with the words "Dear Daniel" printed on it. N I was like wow you do miss Dan dont you XD
So we stayed and chatted til 10pm (Chew's classmate came midway to take a bag and he look too afraid to come in. Must be because of the presence of an ape). And boo-yah, we were off, speeding thru the night. I loved the downhill part near the Ipoh tunnel. 120km/h without acceleration babe! WOOT~!
Well I reached home at 12:30am. Really tiring, but a great day. Should do it again some time n mayb stay overnight at Kampar XD

MEAT!!!! (FINALLY)
Woot~! Finally the 49 days are over and
I CAN HAVE MEAT AGAIN!!!
Yeah it's definitely a pleasure to have meat. Can't believe I missed it so much. 2 days ago I bought a few lamb shoulders to be grilled at midnight. Marinated it in olive oil, wine, pepper, garlic and soy sauce (Tatt said salt but I decided to add a bit of Asian flavour, yeah baby!). Didn't have any herbs so I didn't put any (A bit of rosemary and tyme would be nice >.<) So anyway I grilled 2 pieces and gave 1 to my eldest sister (She was going off back to KL at 1:30am so she was the only one left awake at that time). Man, it was extremely gooooooood
But it could satisfy my hunger and I still had a major craving for more meat. So after I dropped my sister at the bus station, I took a detour and arrived at McD after 1 am :-D
McD Drive Thru... Check out the clock on my car. If you look properly it says 1.13 ^^
Me when I was ordering my food lol.
Well I just ordered a Big Mac and went home straightaway. My parents would kill me if they found out XD
Didn't snap any pix of the lamb shoulders because I didn't have my camera and my phone konked out. So no pics of it. But it was great. Had 2 more this morning ^^
I CAN HAVE MEAT AGAIN!!!
Yeah it's definitely a pleasure to have meat. Can't believe I missed it so much. 2 days ago I bought a few lamb shoulders to be grilled at midnight. Marinated it in olive oil, wine, pepper, garlic and soy sauce (Tatt said salt but I decided to add a bit of Asian flavour, yeah baby!). Didn't have any herbs so I didn't put any (A bit of rosemary and tyme would be nice >.<) So anyway I grilled 2 pieces and gave 1 to my eldest sister (She was going off back to KL at 1:30am so she was the only one left awake at that time). Man, it was extremely gooooooood
