Ah! Just the right day to ride my mountain bike on hot and windy afternoon. The sky is clear blue, cotton clouds, dry trails and life full of nature's energy around me. I keep my pace slow and steady climbing up the hills, not in rush like i used too. As i got aged i don't think i'm willing to put too much competitive speed on the trails like racing around up and down with other riders but to ride as nature tourist sight seeing wonders of nature. Lot of alltitiude ride today as we go high above the sea level overlook carpets of forest canopy. The sea looks glowing gold and the grass just like in the Praire hills as it waved by the winds. I wish this hilly trails was my backyard and months of holidays on my calendar so i could spent most of my happy life more meaning full on earth. After years of riding my dependance on living in urban concrete seems to fade and the trump card within in pull me back to mother nature where human used to dwell as habitat. But that doesn't mean being i can't integrate myself with modern world. Thankfully we still got internet connectivity and portable everyday technology behind our bag to keep us updated everywhere we go.
There are too much plastic in our society, worst its can be found on our daily food consumption everyday. Plastic is not something that our body can digest nor have any useful property into our system. It can cause intestine twisting, ulcer or worse cancer if the plastic successfully disintegrate into smaller particle able to sip though our body tissue and into our blood vein. In real world plastic is used to preserve food cosmetically to increase sales profit by long run but at the same time risking having food hazard to consumer health. This week i accidentally ate what can possibly be a plastic coating to coat sausages rather than natural layer of consumable gelatin. So i ate two of it until i realized my sister warn me to remove those plastic coatings the next day later. Puzzled and stunned i was shock to realized how such thing that looks very consumable everyday item can be plastic when common sense says you could. Worse i deep fried it and i knew the plastic already melted with the meat and i consumed. Well i hope my body could withstand such abuse from tainted hazardous food. 5 days later when having breakfast in the city the same sausages with plastic coatings found inside the food as i could feel it seems too hard to tear down the meat. OMG! plastic seems to be every where and part of normal life which no one seems to notice. I hate to knew the fact that food produces seems to ignore safe food consumption but instead get over high volume of profit through easy and fast production. Sucks indeed.. i should get back to the kitchen and make my own food.
There is one lesson i learn this month; is never to jump into peoples timetables via unlikely invitation either for the sake of friendship, a helping hands or simply as a favor....its just a bad move. Stuff like that makes your life complicated. In a day there are 24 hours to spent: 10 hours for career, 7 hours for sleep, 2 hours for meal, 2 hours of self commitment and 2 hours for fun and family. However if you have an uninvited buddy barging your timetable you'll have domino effect that ruin your entire timeline of life in your calendar. This week i spent around 4 hours of useless moments doing other people bidding that doesn't seem to bear any productive or positive work both mentally and physically.... and worst your buddy sometimes doesn't know what is a "timeout". "Time Parasite" is when someone steals your time that you've planned earlier by inviting you doing stuff that is "worthless" on your account. "Time is Money"....i used to ignore those statement when i was young, but as i got old in my current 30's time is indeed worth more than just money. Cats have a good set example to follow; they seems to be relaxed, ignore any temptation to follow others into their boots or looking for trouble. They are relaxed, trouble free creature and follow their own tunes. Dog on the other hands like to take invitation, jump into troubles, fights and begging help. I should be like a cat
If you're in the 1990's having lunch outside home still consider safe and do less harm to health. But with today advancement of commercialisation, food industries are rushing to attract customers with lower price, fast instant food and big profit with less resources needed to produce food products for customer especially this year in 2010. Now days the word "fast food" even the ones serve in high class restaurant consider very hazardous because the new business trends tends to cut cost on safety manufacturing protocol and cheap ingredients used to serve customer especially when the use artificial MSG, coloring, chemical oriented flavour and high preservative content too keep the products last longer pose threat to consumer health with 75% risk of getting fatal diseases and cancer. Even when you go behind some restaurant you can see they dump "pink" colored cooking oil which resukts from repeatedly use beyond its recomended life span cycle....thats way too dangerous. I guess you've heard my side of story about how my sister and my aunts got their first health hazard almost hit the red zone. I practice myself to minimized consumption on outside food by making myself a home made lunch box/ home packed food when ever i need it for outside meal. Its safe because you know you made it yourself. I don't want to risk my health under someones hand. Remember. Precaution is better than cure.
Its my cousins little pricess birthday. Wishes her lots of luck and happiness. I wish i had many birthday as she does but i can't recall anything having my birthday even when i'm at 3 year old..none. The party was great plus lots of food was served. Satays, sweet curry, fried chicken, chocolate cakes, wines, fried noodles and lots of mouth watering cuisines on the table...i tell you these people knows how to cook which is why i never missed their party. I just lost a few pounds and another pounds just refill back into my body. This week i have to do more intense ride to get rid of my weight and prepare for another invitation party, lol.
Was surpise that today was Mooncake festival and everyone was in the rushed to get back home to celebrate the occasion. My sister already made a plan ahead for taking the whole family and her fiance for dinner at hotel. Its been quite a while we haven't had dine outside our home at night. Lots of dummy growling dishes was served including 4 seasons cuisine, steam bass fished, sweet mixed veges, bbq duck, toated chicken dumplings, tasty chicken soup, rices, sweet seasoned cutted jelly fish and some dessert. Was a great dinner for this week especially with family. Being absent minded to know whats happening inside the calendar was my obvious personal traits. Sometimes i do forget my own birthday.
What a crap day today, my effort to repeatedly install a webcam for my projects ended up in a failure. Its a night vision webcam. However after googled around the internet looks like 90% user also was in the same shoes as i am. Everyone put 200% effort to install at high IQ level but it seems that end user not to blame. I found out its just the manufacturer of the products itself was to blame. All webcam for PC seems to be a part of "quickie" production. Those maunfacturer likes to release products without testing and ended up the user because the free test animal. The only webcam for computer that works 100% was on notebook. I would like to share all the manufacturer "the finger" for making webcam a piece of $hi7 products. Webcam = crap gimmick. At the end of the day i use my old battered Nokia into modded webcam, through third party software it worked!
Looks like my 2nd generation website is sparkling brighter than my last year's format. More interactive, more update frequency and things getting more lively with more automated information management. I'm glad my work at http://www.supermotoxl.com this year have been progress more rapid since everything more simplified and manageable. Our community seems to be busy working behind on 3d models and as for me big things coming soon for 2011. Come visit my website.
If your girlfriend can cook something like this for ya, you'll be a happy man for generation to come. Sadly there not much talented female who can cook in this era. Like many man i go solo for a take out meal. RIP chicken.
Simplicity seems to be kicking in into my life. The void space in my mind seems to be more bigger and spacious each day. Life used to be very complex like entangled sewing threads or bad hair day. My living style are much very different now days, those "Don't worry Be Happy" slogan seems to pop everywhere around me. Dumping all those worldy formality and get easy and loose with everthing around me. I prefer slippers walking around, short pants, very loose thin vented clothings, just woke up hair, less stuff in my pocket and walk at slower pace. I start to listen more fomr people but i don't bring trash back home. I don't blog much much neither worry about whats happening around me. I don't like things bother me as i move about my life if its an optional decision. I'm just like fax machine, "i reply you later". My life is just like a happy cat. Cats are really an inspiring animal. Nothing bother them much even when they are taking nap and they can always be at any place any time they like without worry and still everyone worship them. Lets be like the cats just once.
Facebook no longer a good place to be in private nor a place to get excited about. Its just as good as old newspapers or was an object of hype. There are too much stuff to do, things getting too complicated, no privacy control and very open…don’t have time for such crap. I’d prefer Tweeter nowadays. Easy, fast, click and go…yeah! I like the scrolling news in Tweeter, simple and easy for our eyes to look at plus its always interesting to see fast and latest news just pop-up out of the main page scroller. Sweet. In my diary Facebook getting lamer everyday, its just another brick on my shoulder. I keep it open just incase old buddies turn up in “lost and found” lists. Did I heard sales man knocking the door?
A huge contrast compare to previous month, where recently lots of bad luck just pounced upon me starting from mid June, July and August and also probably next month too. Hit by a car, pc hardware damages, major data lost in hardisk, bad weather, lost some cash due to accidents, my PSP console, cameras and data storage stolen just outside my home, didn't win mountain bike races, high surges of utility bills and etc which i never miss my payment, eyes won't close when i desparately need to sleep, bad food, bad drinks, traffic accidents, more broken bike parts, spooked dreams, missing item at home and weird people with weird attitude around me . All this things just pop-in suddenly beyond my expectation. I knew something went wrong and i felt the presence of bad paranormal activity at work. Yes i do strongly felt someone was at work behind this things and i'm going to find it out. I just hate this month because everthing doesn't go in my way. Thank god i haven't loose my cool even i lost all my cash and property to several misfortunes. Damn!
I had a dream just a day before my mountain bike race, i always told by my mom never to sleep in the afternoon especially during the yellow daylight. I took half day holiday off to fix my bike for tomorrow race. Its a promising prospect since i've train very much almost every month for that event. After 2 hours of tuning my bike i felt tired and doze off on my sofa at 3pm in sunny afternoon but hot weather. I was at deep trace into deep dreamy state where i realised dreamed that i was sleeping on that sofa too but a sudden misty figure made a light pounced on my back causing me to jolt like being hit by electric shock. Felt like being possed i glanced to my right ans saw a hand with no arm or body attach to carrying a women purse hovering away from me. Moments later i awake from my dream in verystunned state but my body felt like something trying to possed or control me from inside, i couldn't move, couldn;t open my mouth and pinned down by 'something'. I try to fight my way mentally and try to shake it off and lift my finger since i sleep with my face down the sofa coushin. I think about 10 seconds later i manage to break free and sit back upright on my sofa at the same time glance quickly all around my surroundings to see if anythings was amiss. I was glad it wasn't that serious but however this ordeal isn't the first. I was puzzled about the dream where the bodyless hand carry away a woman purse a way from me. I didn't know the message or sign behind it. The next day i lost the mountain bike race at 16th position where i missed my opportunity getting 3k's worth of cash prize.
Its a great time to work out my heli flying skills in FMS R/C simulator before heading bed for midnight slumber. Glad i still got my flying skill intact. Here my video of flying uploaded in youtube.
You people should know that cooking oil can be only use back as many as 3 cycle of cooking before it turn into or almst pink colored oil equivalent to hydraulic brake oil because if its beyond 3 cycle the cooking oil will change its chemical composition to hazardous liquid thats is danger to health. I realised this when i see absence of used cooking cartons that they use to dump behind the kitchen after several usage that day which i suspect they still keep using it to keep their profit break even before they stop and dump it. Its a common sense today trends as the economy getting expensive food provider must try save as much material as they can to provide profitable output while hiding some facts from customer or asumption that only minimal health defect impact the customer. Which is why nowadays more and more people hit by cancer usually either liver, kidney or stomach cancer or where oil consumption by the body affected. I got a friend who used to be a healthy fitness coach passed away because of that, I do recall that he like to eat fast food our take out food every afternoon and evening. RIP.
Every year more and more car come to clogg the busy urban streets. It just increase exponentially as more people could afford engnized transportation. However the efficiency of transporting people from home to work and vice versa isn't improve nowadays as more and more people drive than walk or cycling. As for comparison when i drive my car back home from work it took me almost 25 minutes to reach almost equally to the speed of riding my own bicycle from work which also took me exactly 25 minutes too. Stuck in the traffic inside my own car is just sparking my rage, temper and also waste of fuel and money. As compare to cycling it just give much enjoyment passing through traffic flow like water and laugh my way home plus i got my health and heart improve via simple excercise. Nowdays i view owning a car is just buying trouble rather than happiness. Get a car stuck in a jam and there goes hot boiling pot on your head. I drive car because of unpredictable weather and insufficient facilities to park my bike.
If i were a rich man i wouldn't buy a car, i'll just buy myself light weight bike, comfy gears and good food to fuel up my tummy for the ride. If anyone gives me a Ferrari i'll trade it immediately to save all the troubles on the road. Talk about road tax, insurance and fuel ouch! I wish the world oil wells drains rock bottom and people going electric bike.
Oh look at that few years later i'm back into micro again. I just have this feeling that 1/28 scale micro r/c have high cool factor and usability than my 1/18 and 1/10 scaler. The are small, detailed bodies, pocket size with all the slogan "anytime anywhere" all over it cramped with all the high tech micro technology that cost a bang inside a thumb sized cockpit. After years into 1/18 tp 1/8 scale its time to put all my large scale technology knowledge and zip everything into this tiny pint models. I'm looking forward to upgrade this micro to perfection with ass whooping programmable micro ESC, 2.4Ghz RX,micro brushless upgrades and high reponse servo just like its big brother.
"Yes i can control the weather!, Yes i can control the weather!,...now move! sshuuuu shuuuuu!! sshuuuu shuuuuu!! sshuuuu shuuuuu!!, don't come back unless i said so". Duh! the gloomy cloud returns again signaling early arrival of rain. Raining seasons has return to spoil my outdoors plans. Dang!
Its great to be out in the wild again, just zooming around the trees, bushes and paddle way above the sea level above all people looking into the horizon see green soft carpet of forests as the wind blows over me, i felt renewed in me. Every weekend i just escaped myself from the hustle and bustle of urban life. Sometime i was pondering myself that everyday i began to hate life in the urban, i need a gateaway ticket to spend my days touring around the world on my bike visit interesting and wonderfull places before kicking the bucket.
I'm not sure if i did mention this story before on this blog but i'll try to bring it up again. The image of orange cat came to my mind vividly this week as i recalled years ago when i live alone in a house in KUCHING city west of borneo continent.
7 years ago i was enjoying my hobby building 3d models (CYBORX) on my computer located in the dining room which from there i can see clear straight view through my living room with opening doors towards outside the corridor. I was busy focusing my attention on my computer screen when suddenly i have a warm feeling a guest was at the living room. I looked at the living room near the door and saw a healthy orange white tabby cat lay down comfortably in the middle, grooming itself licking paws and face. Its doesn't show much hostility at my presence especially in my house, looked felt comfortable as he see me from where i am. "It must be someone's house cat out of curiosity wondering into my house" as said in my thoughts. The orange and white tabby cat made a direct happy eye contact at me as if saying he is very much in happy state and comfort. i said "meow" and it just lay down like a happy cat. The i took my eyes of the cat and get back staring on my computer screen in just a few seconds and when i stare back its gone. I walk over hastily to the coridor to see if i can cought a glance where it could have walk out butthe cat was no where to be found. However i do feel warm and welcomed at the cat presence as if its trying to relay me a sign or something. At the sometime i have a familiar feeling i've met this cat before.
After long pause i realised i just encounter the same cat which i hit it the night i drove on my red car along the road as the orange cat try to cross the road in the middle of the night. It was a very bad timing and accidentally hit the cat seconds when it leap and ran across the road, i could feel the bumper hit it and roll over the wheels with bumps at the rear as i knew it was the skull. It was agonizing and terrifying incident, i couldn't stop and look back is the road crowded with trails of cars behind me. That night i was petrified that i just killed a cat and lost for words because i do have soft spot for cats, before i sleep i made prayers for the cat soul and ask for forgiveness in the dark was begging to GOD that the cat soul be sent to the Heaven and be happy in its his or her new happy home.
A now i'm happy after realised it came back to visit me telling me it was okay and its happy now in a far away place. I do recalled i have a bit tears in my eyes knowing the cats is now a happy cat in GOD's heaven. Not far away from the place where the cat was layed down comfortably in the living room is a Holy Cross hanging on the wall facing towards us giving us blessing for such beautiful reunion.
I come from a cat loving family i do understand very well about the aspect of cat behaviour. I love cats because the have very unique personality, life and socially humourous.
