Recent happenings

Almost full recovered from the Herpes Zoster epidemic, thats one less thing to worry about. Here comes another problem....

It has been very hot lately, even hotter that when i first came here. It's Malaysian type of weather now and people are starting to dress just to cover up sensitive parts of their body...haha, just joking. But people are really starting to dress very "summer-ish". it so hot that i cant remember a time when Im not sweating....but its only 30 degrees at most. Maybe because the office has no air conditioning other than the windows. However, do not despair...there is still hope. And this hope is put upon our companies elite fleet of "Poor fans". I call them "Poor fans" because the brand of the fans are "Fakir" which means poor in Malay/Arabic. however Google defines fakir as an arabic word that means religious (Moslem) man living on charity....which i strongly disagree. To my understanding its just means a poor man, doesn't matter if he is religious or not. but never mind, lets focus on the topic at hand. Its a good thing that they had these fans. I can see in each room there is a fan turned on at full speed. not that its too hot, but i think i have forgotten how it feels like living in Malaysia's weather.

in other news. i listened to BBC world service yesterday and came across a rather bizzare news. It was said that McDonalds wants to sue oxford dictionary because in there official dictionary there is the word "Mcjob" which means a low paid, low skilled jobs only for uneducated people, which they find insulting to the McDonald brand....but i was laughing my ass of when i heard it."Mcjob"..whoever came up with that was a genius!! instead of "excuse me, can i have a McChicken?" one will be going, "do u have any Mcjobs around here?"..i laugh everytime i think about it.

Yesterday i wen jogging with one of my colleagues...well, i think its more like pace making..since i was on a bike and he was the one running. Anyway, it was a 9.1 km run and when i say run, i really mean run! this guy was running non stop at an average of 14-15km/h and finished the run in a record time of 38minutes 10 seconds. I was really astonished. how could he run so far without stopping? So today i tried jogging, for the first time in who knows how long. haha, to my dismay, my feet could only bring me 1 km before giving up and walking for the next 8km...haha..i guess i have a long way to go...:P

Finally, still thinking of going to Paris, i have to do a feasibility study first and see how i can do that:P But the one who reads this blog will be informed...stay tuned
