IMU vanished !

One day, when I looked out to the window, to my horror IMU was missing. IMU is located just in front of my Vista C condominium's window, about 100 meters distance. What had happened ? David Copperfield magic ?

Building on the left is Vista Komanwel B, directly in front is Vista C clubhouse.

At first I thought there was fire in IMU, luckily it wasn't. Anyway if there was fire it doesn't matter to me because I won't be attending classes until March :P

The usual view from my window

I don't know where the smoke comes from, it last for about 15 minutes, it was quite worrying at first because I had never seen haze as serious as this before.

Cloverfield Movie Review

I watched this movie last Friday, thinking it is an exciting movie to watch when the statue of freedom's head got broken, so I decided to spend RM 7 on to watch it in GSC cinema. The first 15 minutes was just nonsense where a guy will be holding a video camera interviewing people what they want to talk about on a guy who is getting married. You will be watching the whole movie as if you are the video camera. I felt dizzy when the movie was just started and luckily it was not a long movie, just around 75 minutes. If you got motion sickness, I would suggest you to take Novomin first before entering the hall or just watch other movie.

This movie was a huge disappointment, probably the worst movie in year 2008 that I am watching in cinema. Storyline is ok, but screen play and ending is just crap. The screen just moves around like mad and there were a few instances you are just looking at the floor. The ending is very simple, it ends when the video camera was destroy by a bomb, which blast the whole Manhattan. Wtf, it is just not worth the RM 7 ! Next time I will wait other people to watch movie first then let them to recommend me which one to watch.

Cost of dialysis

I really sympathize with those patients who need to undergo haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. It cost RM 2000-RM2500 per month to get this kind of treatment. The cost of dialysis per month is more than the income for a lot of low-middle income class people. Without any welfare support, not many people will be able to pay so much per month to receive treatment for End Stage Renal Failure (ESRF).

I have seen patient as young as 8 year-old in the nephro ward receiving CAPD (Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis). We should take care of our health, most of the patient with Renal failure was first diagnosed with diabetes mellitus. Although you may think that you are still young but it is better to prevent rather than being late.

Chatting with a patient in Nephrology ward

This is not a case presentation!

Patient was an Indian guy, 74 years old. Suffered from ESRD, DM, HPT and left leg cellulitis. He was a very kind man who talked to me when I was clerking his case. This is the first time I talked to a real patient, rather than a simulated one in IMU CSU.
He told me that he used to work as an army accountant. He was also involved in the politics in his younger age, and he knows a lot of politician such as Karpal Singh, Lim Kit Siang, Lee Lam Thye and even Tunku Abdul Rahman (according to him is his neighbour) and Lee Kuan Yew ! wow...

While he was working in the army, someone offered him a bribe, but he rejected it. I was thinking if I was him, will I accept bribe? In army department, I believe the amount to bribe for something, such as modifying the account detail in purchasing of weapons could easily gave you millions of ringgit, but he rejected it.

Shall he had accepted the money, he would be probably now receiving treatment in a private hospital first class ward fitted with air-cond, personal toilet and personal room, with Indonesian maid take caring him, washing his legs. But he choose not to, and now had to stay at HKL's warm and uncomfortable ward, still looking for a haemodialysis centre because he cannot afford to pay RM 2000 per month for it. That is a lot for someone who is not working anymore and no children to pay for him.

If you were him, will you accept the bribe ? Those minister who cheated the people for so much money can live happily ever after when they retired but those who choose to be honest got this kind of ending ? How come god is so unfair to good people ?
