izzi net is such a shitty ISP (not that the rest of the ISP in our little neck of the woods are helluva happening either).
these are the speed test results i got from three different periods of time:
date--------------download speed ---------- upload speed
25may 08--------64 kb/s---------------------- 7 kb/s
28 may 08-------404 kb/s------------------- 67 kb/s
3 june 08---------178 kb/s-------------------- 4 kb/s
1 nov 08----------341 kb/s------------------- 41 kb/s
2 nov 08----------176 kb/s------------------- 16 kb/s
13 nov 08---------215 kb/s------------------- 15 kb/s
pretty sad numbers, ain't it? sux... MEGA HUGE BIG TIME!!

alright, have it your way then
recently we met up the siblings for lunch and a couple of friends came as well. like us, they are also new parents. as usual, the moms will get together and swap baby stories and experiences. when i mentioned that i can't take seafood as i'm breastfeeding, the other mom gasped and exclaimed that she's been walloping seafood all these while. she turned to her baby's dad and told him that.
instead of saying that it's ok, just don't take anymore in future; he just mumbled, "aiyah, nothing one lah, don't bother lah".
eh, hello? if you don't know what's good for your kid, then listen and learn lah. seafood and shellfish triggers allergies in young babies and toddlers. you're lucky your child didn't react to it.
well, there are parents like that. who don't really bother. i'll just wish them good luck and all the best for your kid. i used to share baby-care knowledge enthusiastically. i've stopped doing so in the last couple of months. i realise that most parents are not really open minded enough to listen and learn about the best care for their child. as for me, if there's something i don't know, i'll ask and find out all i can coz nothing is too good for my lil one.

eh mamak, be proud of your fame lah
here in malaysia, when we hear the word, "mamak" the first thing that comes to mind is the mamak stalls selling all sorts of affordable yummy food.
mamak is actually a term for indian muslims. true as it may be that they also excel in other fields and industries, it is the mamak stalls that brings their fame many, many notches higher. in fact, mamak stalls are a way of life for us malaysians, regardless of race or creed. it's a malaysian tourist attraction, or to term it more aptly, a malaysian-must-have.
these stalls that we can always find anytime of the day or night, 24/7 is the bloodline that intergrates the "muhibbah" spirit of us malaysians. this spirit of racial integration is what gives us malaysians our diverse and colourful culture.
would malaysia be the same without our beloved mamak? no way lah! no mamak?? where can?!?
i'm proud of our mamaks... wouldn't you be?
JJ and Rudy of hitz.fm recently made a parody "i got it from my mamak". very apt anthem for our yummilicious mamak stalls.
i'm going to my fav mamak stall now. "... aney, teh tarik satu, kurang manis; setengah masak dua..."

happy birthday to me..........N O T !!!
blekh! i had a shitty new year's day and a shitty birthday this year. spotty with itchy chicken pox!
i was having the chills and fever and achy joints and muscles a few days before the new year. and on new year's eve i developed some red spots on my arms and i was so afraid that it was dengue fever. went to the doctor and he said that it's not dengue but i have a viral infection. gave me antibiotics (antibiotics to fight virus??? since when is that possible!) and sent me home. the next day i woke up and felt a blister on my abdomen. went to hubby and asked him if it's chicken pox. he took one look and said yup, that does look like chicken pox alright. hmmm... better stay away from my baby boy.
went and googled about chicken pox and found that it has a 10 to 14 day incubation period. dang! that means i caught it before Christmas. and moreover, it starts to be infectious 2 days before the pox starts showing. that could mean that my baby is already infected.
later in the day i went to the doctor (again..) to confirm that it was chicken pox. i got the same lousy doctor again. this scruffy quack who took one look at my abdomen and all he said was.."yup, yup, yup...yup, yup, yup" his bedside manner is was worse than gregory house m.d. minus the obnoxious charm. this dude was just scruffy, smelly and unprofessional. i mean any doctor worth his 2 cents of salt would have known that it could be chicken pox when he saw me the day before. stoopiad farker. pigi-dah!
so, there it is, a spotty birthday for me this year.
