Solar Eclipse

On 26th January 2009, we citizens of Malaysia evidenced the event of partial eclipse. It began at about 4.30pm and last to about 6. Without a good lens, its pretty difficult to capture the image of the sun. However, the UV filters of my cam (or I believe so) able to create the reflection, which inverts the eclipse and produce the double image. The reflections is in the yellow bracket.

Kids: Gift from Heaven


Innocent. Which correctly describes the nature of the kids. They would not lie. They cannot lie. They express their feelings through their eyes. The eyes would tell a thousand words.

Playful. It's their nature. They learn through play and they play to learn. From play, they learn to share, they learn to fight for themselves. Most of all, they learn the skills for survival.


Some live a happy lives, some, carry the heavy weight on their shoulder. They mind are like sponge. They see, they absorb and they change.


Strangely enough, simple things like balloons will make their day. Their soul is as clean as a piece of white sheet. Only time will make a mark on this clean sheet.

On Call Blues

Today, I am on call again. On a straight EOD calls for three days in a row! Since I go on call for quite sometime, I had seen many types of people lingering around me:

Some, albeit rare, are the hardworking type, working beyond the time limit set, working beyond their boundaries, never feel tired and always ahead of other colleague. They help you to take blood for the patient, arange for caesarian section, buy you dinner, talk to you and tidy up the mess. So far I have seen only 1 out of 25 housemen.

Some always watch the clock, punch card ready since 4.30 pm, eager as ever to go home. As the clock strikes 5, they will transform from little filthy mice into a handsome stalion. With a magical "pop", they will vanished into thin air, like never existed. Any new cases that pops in at 5.00:29 will be considered cases for the on call people. Haha. What do they care about other people?

Some people feels like chips more (T). Now you see it, now you don't! They are mentally and spiritually be with you during your on call, but not physically. When you need them the most, they will say:" Hey ya, I need to go and pray, can you sort of cover me for a while?" Then they are gone. After prayer, they will text you again, saying that they will go and take a bath, and then go for dinner, and then spa, and then meet the uncle's best man durinmg high school... then only they will be back on call.

No matter what type of people you are, please respect you job. When you are dealing with live, they deserved nothing second best. Do the right thing and do it right.
