Society Recycling Events

Warning: sibei long post ahead!!!

Kampong Senang Charity and Education Foundation



Whao, recycling event was as fun as usual. The fact that I can contribute a bit to the society and plus able to do it with the right people was a bless. No regret going lah.

A bit updates, although we got not a lot of people coming (i guess its holiday mah) but we manage to fill up 2 lorry full of newspaper. Which "Ah Kun" say worth about $600. Whao, thats consider a lot for the old folks to spend on their organic food sia.

Main com, we all come together we know what to do~~~
Ga Lang Gu Ni...

Ya, and then after that right, all the main com went to the playground and played the 'iceman' catching.
One catcher, the person who had been caught, remain at their spots, free person may touch them to thaw them. Objective, is basically let me be the catcher and run around like a fool to act as if I can't manage to catch them at all.
Okie lah, it was me who initialled this childish game de. But you know, once in a while you got to put down ur diginity of a youth and enjoy yourself like a kids. They were relucant at first but soon the playground was filled with laughters. Haha, very fun :)


After the game, we took a 1 hour plus bus trip to Marine Square to have our 'too late for lunch and too early for dinner' meal at Hot Pot. Hmmm... seriously, the food there sucks ball till bottomless pit lah. I don't wish to elaborate further. But I never want to patronize them again. But on the brighter notes, we had damn lots of fun talking about how bad the food is. And one of the waitress damn nice and helpful, help us cleared away a lot of unfinished food. If not right, we will be charged on the wasted food.



First picture was taken with anticipation to taste the food


Some al clart food choices from Hot Pot

The Choc Fondue

Second pic show us emoing



Total damage is $257.60. Each of us had to pay $32.20. It is damn expensive de loh. That was the first time I am eating a buffet that was not filling at all. When ever I open the pot lid, I close it back telling myself the food still was cooked yet. It was that disgusting.






We end the day, gossiping people at Esplanade. Take a lot of picture and I upload till I pissed off myself. Damn a lot of nice picture but no time to blog. So let me end the day with an edited picture of Chervel. No hard feeling.

Concept taken from dawnwayang's blog.

BE society rocks!!!
Recently, father brought new furniture. We had a 'major' spring cleaning. Shifted some of my furniture and packed my room. Saw a lot of notes laying around. Suddenly thought of the song "from this moment". Kept all the things in a box. Looking at those things brought back some memories. Some sad and some are happy. But anyway, I still felt happy for her. Will always remember her as she left a deep foot-print in my life. Anyway, I am still grateful that I make the decision. Now both of us found our own happiness.
I was browsing the net and I came over a very useful site. Similar like a street directory call the gothere.sg. Let me basically summarize it pros

  • easy to nagivate
  • provide detail address of your location
  • give you bus directions
  • give you MRT directions
  • give you driving route directions
  • map very detail and easy to navigate
  • provides distance, time and cost
  • can siam ERP
For driver's route, it calculated total time, distance and give you the option to avoid ERP and highways. Even provides detailed written description on road to navigates.
For public transport like bus, it guide you on how to get to the bus stop on walking then instructs you to take which bus and alight at which bus stop. Somemore also provide you the cost of the bus fares

Map are easy to navigate with selected path to let you see what prominent places you had passed.

After streetdirectory.com had issues with the map, gothere.sg had became increasing popular. You may wanna try it out yourself to realise the ease for gothere.sg to be so simple to use. You will immediately feels the different judging from their homepage.

Beer is good for your health

Well, today I am going to discuss some of the mis-concept of beer and some of the health effects of beer drinking.

And I am going to stress that the myth of "beer belly" with beer drinking is false. Beer belly is scientifically proved, associate with over-eating and lack of excise. However the only link I found out between them is "binge drinking". But it can be understood because, if you are saying over limit of consumption cause beer belly. As over eating of bread can also cause obesity. I mean over eating of anything of course can put a few pounces of your body.
"Binge drinking" is described as consumption of 5 glasses of beer in a span of 1-3 hours.

DO YOU KNOW?

An average beer contains the following:

0 mg of cholesterol

0 g of fat

13 g of carbohydrate

135 g of calories

protein, calcium, potassium, phosphorus and vitamins B, B2, and B6

which means that it is fat-free and cholesterol-free.
wah, shocked by those calories? Don't be, because a same glass of apple juice gives you more calories than a glass of beer.



beer drinker has high-density lipoprotein or HDL, known as the 'good' cholesterol
First things first, peoples are always saying how fatty beer can be. Or saying that drinking beer cause beer belly. These ignorant guys were not to be blamed, because there were just too many speculation about these false facts around us. I was once also affected by these.
Beer is cholesterol free, but beer drinker have a high level of HDL in their blood. Since I already stated that they are good cholesterol which is a protective layer of blood fats.

moderated drinking of beer once in a while decelerate aging.

Beer was brewed from melted wheat which has high level of vitamin B.
Beer was brewed from melted wheat which contain high level of yeast and yeast contain high level of vitamin B. Beer actually contain, vitamin B, iron and amino acid. It is an energizing beverage and contains significant amount of different nutrients. Therefore it was often called "liquid bread" because of it same effects between the two. B6 in a beer drinkers blood which has been shown to decrease the level of - homocysteine which increase the chances of heart disease.

Beer withdraws uric stones "kidney stones"

Uric stones are organic undissolved particles stored in the bladder. Know as "stone" in layman terms. We don't want these abundance to consolidate as it will make urine extremely painful of us. See.. people say that beer can cause dehydration is because our kidney is stimulated by some properties of beer, increasing urine production, make us to go urine very often when drinking. These uric stones are often flushed out during the "strong current" when we urine.


Be very very caution there, all the above I mentioned is based on moderated consumption. Of course over drinking of beer give negative effects but it will not be discussed there. As, the post is written for health benefits of beer drinking. Okie all the information above is I written with cross referencing. Not I anyhow say one one. You can anyhow go and search for 'health effects of beer'. I never anyhow say okie.

So last question of the day, how you define moderate drinking. As moderately sound very vauge to most people. A 12 ounce of beer (330ml) everyday is considered healthy and recommended by a lot of doctor. Just keep to this limit will be fine. As a glass a day is healthier than a lot of beer at one shot from time to time.

Beer is something to enjoy, he says. Just don't feel guilty about indulging. "In moderation," Bamforth says, "it's part of a wholesome diet."



12 ounce of beer helps u loss weight
A little teaser for you.

Last day at Trend Micro

Today marks the end of my boring life at Trend Micro. But still I had to account for this one week that happened once in my life. I going to blog it...


First let me tell you my venue. 73 science park drive. "Cintech 1" building

Then let me show you my whole range of data base.
Very killer..

Since today my last day. We are damn slack. Shihao busy chatting away on his MSN. I can't because my computer is fucking facing the entrance. So very likely to be caught by people passing by. Good for my buddy because he had a partition blocking his computer against other's line of sight.

So so damn bored. I make use of my every little waiting time on the phone to draw something on the computer. No photo editor nothing so I decides to draw it on

Excel


This is really madness

But but but, one thing that I will miss is definitely the Naan for the Indian cusine. They are damn nice de lah. You have to tear it into pieces and drip drip in 32,465,791 types of sauces available for your pick. Or you can eat it like chinese po biah style where you roll all the stuff into the Naan aka the "Indian bread"



So happy today going to chiong Dolphin again tonight. Even only 2 of us we will also hiong hiong go down. Woot!!!

*updated*

woot... came back from Dolphin lah. Wah. it is so overwhelming with female waitresses. I damn in good luck sia. around 8 to 9 waitress serving. I got to sing with my fancy, forgot her name.. Shall show her picture :)



I simpily loves her... forgot her name.. she was very shy when singing... i gonna lead her to sing more with me next time.. maybe friday.. hohoho

Okie.. lets get ready to be impressed by Shihao.

A lot of waitress requested him to show them the way of "blowing fire"
Literally out of his mouth. So you are damn complacent liao lah..


screen shot


Okie okie.. claps for you damn it.. You took all the limelight liao loh...


See lah.. all the people looking at you like they never look before like that



ya la ya la... still not enough meh.. oh you don't want the people outside the Dolphin to miss that out also right?? YEAH.. but you can't suck the flame like how I suck them right.., Okie lah.. Next post I gonna show how I suck a lighter flame like no one ever sucked before like that..

Trend Micro - worry free


Trend Micro. What do you think they are?

Well, we are an internet security company majoring with anti virus software. Ever heard of PC-cillin? Or are you already using it now :)

I say 'we' because now I am one of these big family. Working for them as a part timer.

My job scope?

Ironically, I hate to work for them. They give us shit job. Making phone call to a thousands of companies randomly and invite them to our "Trend Micro exclusive channel briefing". That is a seminar to share marketing strategy and experience on making full profitable sales on our products. We had a huge data base to call, I highly suspect that they got the contact from people who sign up free service from Trend Micro. That's where they will get so many company name, contact person, phone number and stuff.


I saw their ad on their homepage. About this "worry free" programme. You earn an incentive when you sell their product. So I related that they will promote this programme during the seminar and we are the one who are tasked to call up these people to attend the seminar.

You know the problem now is what kind of reaction you will get when you handle these phone calls. Some of the company I see in the list are from not related fields, like stationary reseller, printer reseller and micro chip reseller. So when you ask them to listen to us talking on strategy to sell anti-virus software, they will get really pissed off. Then we had to listen to their music.

So for the whole 300 companies that I called last 2 days, I only manage to get 7 companies to sign up for the seminar. But doesn't mean that all 7 will attend.



I actually admire these marketing strategy that they use to promote their products, but it is difficult for us to bring across the message and it is really tough to be in our positions. Wouldn't be long for this assignment. Hope to end soon.
Thai PM today announced Bangkok in a state of emergency.

meaning:

-ban gathering of 5 or more peoples
-ban media reporting that might arise panic in the states
-allow closing of roads and deny vehicles usage when appropriate
-allow closing of building and evacuate of building when appropriate
-allow any person to be hold up to 30 days with courts approval

and considering that we are going for a trip to Bangkok on 22th Sept. If the situation remains like that, which I think very possible due to the very well organized of the protesters. Our trip would be postponed till next holiday.

If anytime we were to be there on study trip, we could easily be suspected as protesters and locked up to a maximum of 1 month. Or anytime, when we were doing our shopping, the building could be closed and evacuated, or while we were boarding our transports, we could be deny anytime. Media for reporting Singaporean causality may be banned also. Sibei dangerous lah.

Now that majority of Thailand airport had been forced close and electricity and water supply had been cut off in some major areas in Bangkok. Singapore tourism board had given warning not to go Bangkok unless with urgent matters.

Jida is now in Bangkok, we are worried for her safety there. Hope she can safe and we can get to see her in a month time.
DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME ALONE

but try it with a friend :)

Shihao and me, we were maybe damn bored!! we tried to take photo lying on the street. be reminded this ain't just normal street okie. It is a muthafarka major road outside boat quak okie!!!

It damn dangerous.. Only attempt with right amount of traffic, right timing and preferably sibei lot of Chivas.

Monday night at Dolphin sucked balls. Without Jida and Weiru. It was half as happening. Maybe lesser.. Okie finally finished our second bottle of Chivas, I think its time to stop patronising Dolphin already. Expensive hobby. Maybe should wait for them to come back.

I looking forward for my job and school result. I quite confident that I can maintain results. :)
