Somebody almost died in my arms..

Yesterday, I had a harrowing time at a bus-stop near my work place.

As, usual, I went to the food market opposites my work place to the Atm to draw some money. I was suppose to give it to my bro-in-low brother. As, I returned to the bus-stop and went up the staircase, I notice both of them weren't there. I thought, maybe, they had already taken the bus home. But, when I turn to look around I saw my bro-in-law holding his brother head who was laying motion-less on the ground. My bro-in-law called out to me for help.

I was a little surprised and walk straight to him and ask him what had happened. Apparently, his brother had suddenly fainted and collapsed. An off duty nurse was already there helping out. I think, my bro-in-law brother is lucky that the nurse alighted from the bus at the right time. She, told him to put the body sideways laying on his left shoulders. From, what I've learned before, the body position help the breathing and if there's vomiting involved then it would flow easily.

It's also important to check the breathing and if there's any blockage by the tongue or whatever. In any case, it's just isn't pure coincidental that she's there. And, a nurse at that. I've always respected nurses and their dedications to the profession. And, she proved I wasn't wrong in that.

I think, it wasn't time yet for my bro-in-law brother to go. But, really. I was already wondering if he was dead as I can see his face turning to white ghost color!

As, I put his head on my thigh, I hold his head and put my hand in front of his opened mouth and I can sense his breathing. I knew, somehow, he's going to be alright. I tried to close his hardened opened mouth but it was lock into that position. Anyway, slowly he regained a bit of consciousness and I can see him opening his eyes. Albeit a bit blur. We ask him questions and all the while my bro-in-law shouted calling his name. I think, that help too as you never know if the soul was actually moving away. If he hears a familiar voice calling out to him in time of his darkness then he will go to the voice. I think, that's also help in him coming back. We don't really know the story of a soul and beyond what we sees. So, I'm just sensing that another world was actually waiting for him on the other side. I guess, it's not his time yet.

Well, anyway. The nurse called the ambulance and when they came we decided after awhile to let him go to the hospital. Although, we think he only fainted. But, after seeing his face turned all white, it's just a safer bet to let the docs take a look at him at the hospital. I went with the ambulance and all the while answering questions about my bro-in-law brother. I told them about him having a hole in his heart and how he just recovered from an operations months before.

Later, at the hospital, we waited nearly 5 hours for him. They took a sample of his blood and it needed two hours to know the result. By the time he was okay-ed by the doctor to return home, it was already 10pm. We took the one bus 147 at a bus-stop near the area and I reached home around 11pm. I told my mom about what happened earlier.

I told her how, I thought he was going to die. But, later he turned out okay. Although, he didn't really remember what happened. In any case, we had a laugh later in the morning at work about what happened yesterday. Today, I'm just happy, that he didn't faint again!

The doc actually gave him 2 days MC and told us that maybe he didn't have enough sleep. I laugh it off as nonsense as the guy is out of work and the only thing he's been doing before working with us was sleeping the whole day!

But, I ask him did he play with the PSP during lunch time and didn't take a nap as usual and he said yes. So, my guess is, he slept late, then he didn't sleep during lunch hours and he was hungry from the smell of the clorex they were using. It does make u feel hungry. So, that could be the reason why he fainted. Then again, he has had fainted a lot of time before yesterday. So, it's not really an un-common thing for him. Only, that, after it happened in front of me, my bro-in-law and me decided it's better for him to be brought to the hospital.

All in all. It was an harrowing experience for me. And, I take it as a learning curve. I've seen before others fainted or having fits but I wasn't always eager to help. But, this time, I had to handle the situation as seeing my bro-in-law almost gone into panic. He didn't really know what to do but called out his brother name. Don't get me wrong. I'm always eager to help those in needs. But, sometime, it need to happens to the one close to you to really know what's going on. And, your reactions to it. Do you panic? Would you know what to do? These are some of the questions I asked myself sometimes, and I guess, some of the training or courses I did, do help. In a way.

Yeah, I'm just happy, I'm home safe right now. But, you never know what's around the corner, ya?

Just, make sure to be prepared for the worst that could happen to you in life and don't panic!!

Try to handle the situation in a calming way. Know, that these things could happen to anyone and at any time and in time of these you need to be in control of yourself, of your emotional state and try to look at it from the outside. Hope, for the best all the time and if not then so be it. Shit happens!

So, good day and take care of yourself. Oh yeah, try to take first aid courses. You never know when you'll need the knowledge.

Life a gift, take care of it ..

So, my bro-in-law brother was hospitalized and had to be operated on yesterday. I was told, that he had a hole in his heart. Frankly, it doesn't surprise me. Their whole family are hardcore smokers. If, they all sit in one room, you'll be huffing and puffing for fresh air!

The thing is, their father died because of the same heart complications. What, I'm getting at is that, this guy is only around 33 years of age and he's already had to go through this operation. What's worse is that he doesn't even work!

I'm just wondering hard, how's he's going to pay for all his medical bills. He, definitely don't have any money, that I'm pretty sure. I'm sure, he'll have to use his mom medisave account. *roll eyes*.

I decided to post about it here as I hope this could be a lesson to us all. We all heard it before, it's better to take care of yourself, to work and save your money for this kind of emergency. It's important to work hard when you are young and healthy. To remember, good health is really a blessing and we should be thankful. Don't waste the chance you're given in life.

It's easy to say, "no, I'll do it later". I'll stop smoking or drinking or even eat right or whatever. But, the thing is, sickness or misfortunes doesn't warn u before it happens. When, it's gonna happen, it'll happen. So, it's always good to be prepared. Always, good to save up for a rainy day.

This hold true even in this world economic crisis. Did you saved enough in the event that you are laid off? I, certainly hope so. For your own sake!

It's easy to forget when it seems, life so good and you don't think anything worse can or will happen to your life right now. But, life is so unpredictable. You, could be laughing right now but would be crying your heart out the next. It's always good to be prepared for the worse in life, cause, believe you me, it will. It's also good to be mentally prepared for the worse. I find that, if I think of the worse thing that could happen, it didn't happen. But, if I take things too lightly and the worse struck me. That's just life.

One, thing I'm sure of is that. Nothing, is perfect in life. People come and go. Friends, move on. Parents dies. Children dies. It's all happening in this world. Don't take it to heart. Most, of the time, I just shrug it off as part of life. One day, I'll die. That will be that. The end.

In any case, be thankful, you still got a chance to change for the better. To make something out of this short time we are given. Nothing, gonna last forever. So, take care, have fun but don't throw it all away. Don't waste it.

That's all I have to say right now. Have a nice weekend.

about life n death..

Sooo, last night I find it hard to sleep. My mind wonder from one thing to another and finally, I just got thinking, how life seems so meaningless to me right now. It's like a vicious cycle. Everyday, I will wake up, go to work and come back from work and that sums up my life right now. The problem is, I know I need to find something interesting or worthwhile to do but, I can't find anything I really like right now.

I've been telling people I'm in a semi-retired mode as, there's nothing much else left I want in life right now. Everthing, seems so boring to me. I don't know, maybe, because I'm leading a simple single life so, I really do have a lot of time in my hand. That's why, I feel it's kind of wasted and I know I could do something worthwhile. I've been thinking about a couple of options I could take. 

For example, I've thought of joining a non-profit organization, maybe to help out the needy or in disaster areas or something like that. I'll like to do my part to help the world. The problem is, I don't know how I can go about doing it. Also, at the same time, I'm kind of lazy. Haha. So, really, I need to get off my butts and start doing something or I'll die of boredom.

The only thing, that keep me excited right now is games. New games, and also new technology. I really like to see new stuff created or designed. That's one thing, that actually makes me want to stay alive. I really want to know what's the future is like in 20 years time. Right now, I think I'm heading towards depression or something like that. I don't know. For me, right now, life seems so meaningless. I've got nothing to live for. Nothing, to look forward to. Nothing, to work hard for.

Hmmm, if this is semi-retirement, I don't know what's full retirement would do to me.

Sometime, when I think about life and death. How, I'm going to die, I just feel that, "GOD, just get it over with. Damn it. Just let me die now!".

Sooner, or later, I'm going to die. I've got nothing in my life right now, that I feel why wait?

Do, I have to wait longer to just die?

When, really is my time?

I just feel empty right now. I don't know. I couldn't sleep yesterday night, thinking about all this. Maybe, I think too much. Maybe, I have too much free time. Maybe, I'm leading a too easy, simple life? Haha!

Once, awhile. These thoughts go through my mind. Once, awhile, I'll feel like I want to die right now. Just get it over with. When, I think about death, I just wonder, I just couldn't stand life anymore. I want to end it. But, I'll have to wait. Maybe not?

I don't know why, I think about death too much. I need to look forward. Need, to find something worthwhile to do with my life. I'll look around. I don't know. Maybe, I'll just lay still and rot to death. I don't know, if I can still long enough anyway. Haha.

I'll always think about life and death. I just hope, something will crop up soon, or I'll just die.

I'll just die.

Die.

Can Alien build a Spaceship?

As promised, the other day. I told you readers, if any, that I'm going to talk about aliens!

Ha ha. I know, what's with the question?

Well, I like reading about UFOs and stuff. I also like watching movies about aliens phenomena or whatever. One question that pop up in my mind watching all the movies is that how did or can they build such big/small spaceships in the first place?

Just look at the aliens in all those movies. Look at their physics. Look at their fingers. If any. They are very much different physically then us. Personally, I have problem holding tools and putting wires together with my hands. I can get cramped just holding the newspaper to read!

So, how in the world can these aliens build any freaking thing, you wonder. And, can they even type in a keyboard or something to create complex codes for their computerized system?

MIT for aliens anyone?

Here's a joke, do alien blog? Ha ha!

Okay, okay!

I know, if they exist, in a sense they would have to follow the universal laws. We all live in the same universe right? They would have also known or have to learn about mathematical calculations (calculation of moons circling their planet for example), about the universe, about gravity, about engineering and so on. Because, our universe is govern by laws that already exist or set. Personally, I believe GOD set those laws. If not, the universe would be in total chaos! But, that's another matter. So, in a sense everything works the same way anywhere out there in the universe right now.

If any aliens wants to conquer us, and come to our solar system, they have got to have the intelligent, the skill, the technology, the physicality to build freaking BIG spaceships and weapons of mass destruction. They would have to know about the law of the atoms, they would have to learn about oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen and whatever gas there is out there. They might not have the same physical characteristics as us as the world they live in might be totally different. Certainly, their physical traits would have been something that allow them to become builders of houses and machines. How can they build spaceships without all these knowledge and abilities?

So, all this is very complicated. If you're wondering why there's no sign of alien that can be found until now, then maybe there aren't any or they're too far away or that they are not as intelligent as us. Maybe, they don't have the physical form to build anything much less a spaceship. They might be in a form of an animal. Maybe in the form of worms, fungus, bacteria or whatever is out there. I think the environment that surround them would have help in their creation or evolution into lifeforms. Into thinking beings?

But, in spite of that. I believe in this universe that we're living in, there's nothing impossible. We can't close our mind to the possibility of life out there beside earth. Who knows right?

Life always find a way to exist in any kind of environments (National Geographic.. he he). Maybe, there's a kind of animal that's floating around up there outside earth. Maybe, there's something living inside the Sun. Life exist in such unexpected places. Because, we can't close our mind to any kind of possibility. The problem or questions would ultimately come back to us. It will show why we are here. Why are we able to live and cope in this world. Why do we even exist?

Yeah, there's a master plan to all of this. What's that? Maybe, you should think about that for yourself eh?

You might enlightened yourself.

Good day!

P.S. Learn about interesting stuff on National Geographic, History, Animal Planets and Discovery Channels etc. It might broaden your horizon and open your eyes to a whole new world. Yeah, me like.

P.P.S. Alien out there, time to show yourself!

Value your children education

Yo, wassuuppp readers!

So, like, yesterday I chat with one of the girls whom I get to know online. While chatting we went into the topic of education. I mean, talking about my own races mindset on education is a far cry from the other races like the Indians and Chinese. You know like 75% of the population in Singapore is Chinese, 5 % is Indians and other races and the rest is Malays.

My brief is that the Malays mindset from decades ago and now is almost the same. We don't value education as much as other races. One of the thing that keep cropping up is that we are too lazy. We are too relax and only think about enjoying life, don't really think about the future etc etc. But, sometime, I think even with education doesn't really buy you common sense.
Ever heard of that phrase?

I literally took that phrase from one of Steven Seagal movies. I can't really remember which movie but it really struck me as it's really true. Just look around you. Watch some of the rich, educated, elite or whatever you want to call them and you'll realize really some of the mistake they make just shows you that these people didn't use their simple common sense. To make matters worse, I think most of them doesn't have any kind of simple moral sense either!

What I watch is that kids nowadays have a BIG problem in their attitude. I don't know what parents and teachers in school are teaching them. One thing, I'm sure they don't teach kids about is social etiquettes, or using simple common sense and worse of all no common moral values!

Too much are spend teaching on the technical side of education and less on moral values!

That's what you see in the kids nowadays. I really see them so fuck up!

Nowadays, I don't watch MTV a lot as most of the time they show stupid shows about a guy who keeps messing up and shows utterly no respect to his parents. I mean what kind of a world are we living in?

So, like now there's even a show called I think my "16th birthday" or whatever. And shows young teenagers party and drinking. And the finale she get a Mercedez benz from her father. I mean, what kind of life are they living?

These young impressionable kids only think about themselves and being 'cool'. You know what's not cool? Children on the other part of the world dying in poverty. Or being bomb to pieces!!

What do you think this kids would feel if you lose either your hands, legs, eyes, ears or whatever?

Crap, now that's the kind of world we are living in right now. Each of us have different values. That's why I keep telling others that the world we are living now is full of INJUSTICE!

That's why I keep telling others that there's a better world out there beside the one we are living in right now. To all those who thinks religion is for nut case, listen up. We believe in the afterlife where everything is equal. There's no rich, there's no poor, there's no the beautiful and there's no the ugly. Where there's no young and there's no old. Where there's no suffering, no sickness. No war definitely and finally true EQUALITY for all!

The world we are living in right now is just a mirage. Yes, if you work hard, you'll get what you deserve, richness in this world. But, that's about it. What if you can get a good life both in the world we are living in right now and in the after life. Wouldn't that be better?

That's why in my religion we are taught to pray for a good life on earth and in the after life. Not, just in the crappy world we are living in right now. And no, religion doesn't stop you from going after a good life. God, gives you brain, hands, legs, eyes, ears so that you can take care of yourself and others. To take care of the world NOT to destroy it!

C'mon people, do you have any kind of COMMON SENSE?

That's what I'm talking about. If truth SLAP you across the face will you know it?

Another, thing I wanted to say is about the people that are in power in other countries. I don't know why these people can't really work for their own people. I mean, their bloody OWN people!

They would kill just to feed their own self but what about their own people? Their own country mate? There's no moral sense in these people. They're IDIOTS and they will die a terrible death. Just look at what happen to Saddam Hussein and his cohorts.

Just think about it. What if Saddam had been a kind man, a man with visions for his people. A forward thinking man who uses his power to resurrect Iraq. What if he had call in big companies to build factories and provide work for his people. What if he had build good infra-structures, beautiful building, improved school facilities. Let every children of Iraq to go to school and learn. To improve themselves that in the long run they can get good jobs and provide for their own family. But, instead, he's an idiot who only cares for his own kind. He killed thousands of people, gone to wars a couple of time. And, I think that just shows you that there is GOD.

You know, you'll reap what you sows. If you sows hatred then, you'll get hatred running after you like a pack of dogs. Run, Saddam did like a dumped kitten. And slay like a freaking useless dog he is. That's what I called stupid. Doesn't use simple common and moral sense.

If kids nowadays, doesn't learn from mistake like him, they'll learn the hard way. You know, you'll get what you deserves in life or in death. Think about it.

Phew, people can be such idiots.

Right, again. I've talk too much. This kind of topics are my passion. I'll blog about it as long as I'll live even if nobody read it.

That's it for now and for God sake, think about what you're doing right now. Don't just think about filling your own stomach but help with whatever you can. You can make a different. Believe you me, you can. Everybody can, if they can just put aside their selfishness. The world, is sick. Every little help is needed.

Have a nice Sunday!

Peace.. it's just a dream is it?

Discover tidbits about the world everyday

Everyday, when I open up my Firefox browser it will go straight to Yahoo.com main site. On the main site I like to quickly scan up on interesting stories happening around the world. I especially like reading up on the latest science fact. For example, today I read up three interesting stories about black hole, ancient tree stumps and rare amphibians.

It might doesn't sound much but a little tidbits on what's happening around the world will broaden up your horizon. When we think we know everything then something new is being discovered. Just to show you that's God knowledge isn't limited. Even if you take a lifetime to learn or be an expert on something, you've only scratch the surface.

There's more to life then what you see around you right now. There's more to it. If only you open up your eyes and also listen.

Here's the links to the article if you're interested >>

2. US astronomers spot massive, record-setting stellar mass black holes.
3. Melting Glacier Reveals Ancient Tree Stumps

Good day!
