Yah! My Mom is back!

Yay! My mom back!


Finally, my mom is back from the hospital. She's still of course a little weak but she'll regain her strength back. I'm just glad she's okay after all that she's gone through. Life, will be a little normal after this experience.

By, the way. I like this video from "Bullet for my valentine". Their music sounds cool though. A little bit of metal, pop, death, grunge ..way cool dude. Check out the video!

My mom out of ICU

Well, just came back today after spending the whole day at the Tan Tock Seng Hospital visiting my mom. She didn't have any problem last night and the doc finally gave the green light for her to return to the normal ward. I'm just relieved that she's finally okay. Although, she's a little weak. Not yet strong to walk on her own.

Me and my sister are hoping that she'll be able to return home by tomorrow afternoon. For the moment, she'll stay at my sis place so that she can be took care of. I'm a little tired and think I'll sleep early today. Tomorrow is work day.

Hoping for the good news tomorrow.

For now, good night!

My mom transfered to ICU

Well, update on my mom today is that this morning she complained of breathlessness and was transfered to the ICU (intensive care unit) for further care and observation. We had to take turn to visit her at the ICU as only a few people are allowed in. She is getting better though and the doctor said that if she pull through the night without any more trouble then she would be transfer back to the normal ward. That means if all goes well she could be discharge soon.

This few days was a little chaotic for me. What with work and later going to the hospital to visit my mom for a couple of hours before finally going home. For me, it had happened before when I was young and my mom was admitted to the hospital because of her bursting appendix. I didn't really know what to expect before but now, I just prepared myself mentally for the worse. In my mind, I already thought of what I need or have to do if anything bad happen to my mom. I think if you know what you're doing and you know one day it's going to happen it won't be too shocking for you to take. Some people do take it hard when their love one finally passed away. But, to me since, I already am mentally prepared and I know it's just part of life that I just focus on what I need to do.

Yes, we are all human and sometime we can control our emotional state but I guess, maybe, I'm just cold-hearted or rather I'm prepared for the worse in my life. I just know that life ain't perfect and I just need to concentrate on getting and pulling through to the end. A good end. It's really all up to you. Sometime, you see people go over the top in mourning their love one. But, hey, really it's not the end of the world. Keep moving on. You really don't have time to think through. You just need to push through it all. No matter what.

Life is tough. You have to be tougher.

Anyway, just pray that my mom will get well soon and I can go on with my life as it used to be before this couple of days. I was ready and prepared to take the worst but since it isn't that time. I'm just glad that all ends well. For the moment at least.

We'll see then tomorrow. I'll update here if I'm not too tired.

So, good day, have a happy weekend and good night!

My mom hospitalized.

So, like my mom was hospitalized today. She's still in the hospital today, resting. I think she need it. She's having respiratory problem and the doctor decided that she should stay for the night at least to be observed.

Her blood taken and given some kind of oxygen mask a couple of time. When, I left her she's looking a little better and I think maybe tomorrow she'll be able to return home. Well, that's good. I'm not sure what's her problem is. She hadn't this problem before. Maybe, she's getting old. Maybe, I'm getting old too as I actually had some chest pain (lungs) too. It hurts a little to breathe but right now, it seems to be gone. I've had this chest pain a couple of time but I didn't go to see a doctor. I haven't seen a doctor for like ages. All this while, I didn't really had some bad sickness that I should go to see a doctor about. Come to think of it, that's really good. I've had friends who had cancer, tumor or whatever crap there is out there. I try to take care of myself. I try not to drink sweet drinks or any alcohol which is like, never.

I also don't smoke or go out and party hard or whatever. I drink warm plain water most of the time at work. Only at home, I drink some syrups. That's about it. As, I'm Asian, I eat rice a lot but it seems that isn't good for your health if you take too much. So, since, there's some kind of rice shortage and food prices soaring, maybe it's time to eat less and eat healthy. I guess, you could use these kind of tough times to really evaluate things in your life. Maybe, we're having it good for so long that all of us took it for granted. In time of crisis you could take it hard and give up or you could turn it around and change it to your advantage.

I think people nowadays, especially the young who grew in the MTV age really needs to learn that there's more to life then your father buying you a mercedez at your18th birthday. Teenagers nowadays are really having it good. Maybe, too good for their own bloody self. Some of them are more interested in themselves then about others. They only care what's in it for them and doesn't care less about what others their own age is going through. These kids need to be taught a lesson. They need this kind of crisis, food shortage, water shortage, money shortage to really learn what life is all about. How, others are suffering. What's it like to suffer. What it's like when you don't know how you're going to survive when food is scarce. How people have to work hard to put food on the table. They need the lesson.

The economy right now is really getting a beating. I don't pretend that I know what's going on in the world right now but, I'm just feeling that something bad is going to happen soon unless the U.S. bucks up. Maybe, they need economic, political restructuring. They are like falling apart all over the place. Maybe, the war in Iraq and Afghanistan is beginning to take it's toll on the U.S.

Nothing is change in the middle east especially with the Israelis and the Palestinians. As, long as the problem is not resolved, it's going to be like a thorn that just won't go away!

It's going to be pretty interesting to see what's the future going to be like this couple of years. You don't have too look far to see that the war in Iraq and Afghanistan need to be resolved as soon as possible. As, long as the U.S. is in both of that war it will soon get worse and unless maybe they pull-out sooner rather then later then things really going to get worse and worse. Let just see if after Bush goes things will finally change for the better. Who knows.

Only, God knows.


Peace.. everyone is taking it for granted!

Rhapsody of dreamz..


Yesterday, after picking up my nephews on the way home from work. I decided to wait for my mom to get home from work at a playground nearby. Of course, my nephews agreed. Children, what else do they want but to run around, jumping and shouting as if it's the last thing they'll do?

Anyway, I remembered that I brought along my Asus Eee pc so I thought I'll try to check out if I can surf to the internet catching any free wifi around.

To my surprise, I find that there is some free wifi connection that I can use. I'm not sure where it's from but hey, if I can surf, why not?

The signal is quite strong and I manage to go to Yahoo.com and Zedge.net (just to check out if I can access the site).


Even my nephew manage to go to Hotmail windows Live and check her email. Pretty nifty. I just wonder why I can't use the wifi access from my home as it's only a couple of blocks away. Hmm.. think think. I know, I can set-up my own wireless network but I'm not sure about this wireless network stuff. I've been using cable internet all this while and I've heard from friends that they keep logged out from the internet when they surf using home wireless network.

I'm thinking of getting that 3G wireless data package. But, I want to do my research first. I want to know what it's all about before taking the plunge. If I can use 3G data network to surf anywhere with my Eee pc then I'll subscribe. For now though, I'm a little blurry about it. Anyone, out there using the 3G data wireless service? Care to comment or advice? Leave a post will ya?


Well, my nephews seems to be excited about being able to surf outdoors. Of course, they only wish to know if they can play some online games!

One of the site they visit is y8.com. It's an online flash games site. It took some time to load and we didn't manage to play any games because, the Eee pc battery was already left to 10%. Too bad, I wanted to see too if we can play flash games online using the wifi free service.

Singapore government said they'll build wifi all around the country but I'm still waiting. Right now, you can surf on some buses provided with free wifi but I haven't tried that yet. Wish, the bus I took everyday have wifi. It'll definitely be great to surf to and fro from work!

It'll be fun to be able to check your email or even play some games online on the bus!

What's more with Singapore damn traffics every morning!

Nowadays, it almost took me 1 1/2 hours just to reach my work place every morning. When it should be 45mins!

The other day, I thought the police were doing some road block because of the Mas Selamat case (a JI terrorist escape from jail) but in the end it's because of a car trouble. I don't know what's the problem was as there were two police man and a couple of people talking to each other. Heck, just one car problem and I'm late for work for almost an hour?

I think everyone should take a bus to work!

But, I think mostly it jammed every morning because of parents sending their children to school in cars instead of letting their children take the bus. Because, it seems every school holidays the road trip seems smoother?

Damn those rich kids. I hate it when I see them with their Nokia N95 or whatever. Kids, shouldn't be allowed to carry that expensive kind of phone to school!

I remembered the day when I first got my very own hand phone. I had to work for months before I can save some money to get it. Of course, that was the time when everything was black and white. No games, colors, mp3s or whatever. But, it cost me around $500 bucks!

Mobile phone nowadays have sleuth of cool features that you won't have a second thought. Kids, nowadays are having it good. Okay, I can't say much about kids in the third world country but if they knew the kind of things the kids at this part of the world are getting they'll be like, "Oh, my God!" it's a miracle!

Yeah, it's a miracle alright.

Well, anyway. Talking about miracle, I found this interesting blog from doing some searching via google. You might want to take a look. I don't know, maybe because the way he wrote it makes me read his blog. It's not anything fancy. In fact, it doesn't have any design at all. Just some posting and YouTube videos.

You should check it out. It's at your own peril though.

That's it from me. Have a nice weekend!

Indonesian mosques to get superfast broadband

So like, i was browsing through engadget.com and the title post above interest me. So, i read part of it and decide to read the comments. Lo and behold! The comments made by some of these people really makes me had a hearty laugh.

It started normal enough with people feeling envy about the cheap broadband you'll get through the mosques but ended up people arguing about races, religions and terrorist etc.

I guess, with all that's going on right now in the world today. You can't really run away from the hot topics that are on the news almost everyday!

And, the last i check. They already had 123 post!

So, why not visit the site and read up the post. Warning though, it ain't pretty and children needs parental guidance, the least!
