20 Reasons why you shouldn't get drunk

Now that Christmas celebration is already over, we can still see New Year celebrations coming soon in 3 days' time, and by then, we will see a lot of people congregating in bars, pubs and dance clubs. Alcohol will surely be flowing everywhere as people are enjoying themselves during the New Year's eve. Surely, we will then see people get drunk and some may even puke, and then suffering hangovers the next day, something that all of us wish regrettably we could avoid drinking heavily. Now, these pictures (courtesy of Olive Fernandez) show what happen if you drink excessively. WARNING! Some pictures featured here may be mildly explicit (some pictures show a little nudity, but not too excessive) and thus may offend some people, but nothing gross like a horrible, terrible puke, of course! You have been fore-warned! View the pictures at your own risk! And, if you drink too excessively, you may experience one of these!

Blog author's note: The faces revealed in these pictures have been blocked with black boxes to protect them from public embarassment and from being identified as the culprits and subjects of laughter/practical jokes, as this blog is a public blog. I, of course, do not want to be sued for defamation or anything to do with legal stuff by anyone if any of them happened to view this blog.

29 going on 30

Today is exactly the end of the 10th month of my 29th birthyear before I hit dreißig jahre or sanjyu sai. Yes, exactly 2 more months before I hit that age. The man who thinks he is still young, yet he gets older by the day. Now you see me in those flowery shirt? That's me. Yes, that's how I look like in that shirt. This pic was taken after I had one of my clubbing sessions in one of the local Penang bars.

They say life starts at 30, but no, for me, the real enjoyable life starts at my tender age of 22, when I first gained my independence and freedom while I was in Nottingham, UK, having fun with friends in pubs and bars and enjoyed myself till the wee hours of the morning. That's really the first time I tried drinking whiskey and beer till I get quite drunk. Life was good then.

Then, 23 hit me. And next came 24. Life was still great at that time. I was in Liverpool studying my Masters degree. Well, the good thing is, the British life is really a life after all! No wonder those British people know well how to really enjoy their lives.

Fast forward the time, and my age reached 25. That's when I started working, in KL. Well, as I was staying with my parents at that time, I was literally stuck at home. Can't really go out and enjoy the night away with friends. Guess my parents were really too protective. And so, that good free life stops there, albeit for a while only.

After having trained as an analog design engineer under the Selangor Human Resource Development Center in Shah Alam for a year, I was employed by a Japanese company located in Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone in Penang. At this time, I was in my third quarter of my 20s, that's 27. By then, those wild life started again. Hmmm... really, it did. Started going to some of those forbidden places, well, you know la, so I will mention no more. Clubs, pubs and bars I frequented on weekends and started to mix with various types of crowds, most of them being the crowd of the pink community, till this day. Not forgetting this blogosphere, I get to know even more bloggers of such community and one thing that really strikes my attention to them is that they are all inter-connected; I mean, they have met each other before, through this blogosphere community! Well, not really a big surprise, indeed. They are all nice people and I love them a lot, really. Some bloggers have even gone as far as developing kinship relationship with each other. How nice is that!

Well, back to my life. Quite late in my age did I actually get involved in relationships, and just only early this year did I have a true lover. Well, I did blog about this before. Remember that? Before that, I had relationship flings with a few people, but they didn't last long, the shortest I could recount was only a week. That was not really a true relationship, by most standards. It was a fling indeed.

And now, being in late age of 29, I still enjoy my life to the fullest, and still actively dancing the night away in pubs and bars in Penang. Still feel young and free, indeed. Yet, we all realise that we do get older by the day, not to mention that we realise all of us will die one day, sooner or later. To live is to dice with death every moment, that's according to Ru.

And so, you say life starts at 30? Nah, for me that's not true. Life starts when you really have the independence and freedom. And, tonight again, I am tagging my best friends along to one of the local bars in Penang. The bar of the pink community. We gonna drink and dance the night away. That's my life indeed.

Introducing Fitness First, Island Plaza, Penang - PART 1

OK, so now you all know I am not only a member of Celebrity Fitness, but also that of Fitness First. So, here comes another piclog. Previously, I was introducing Celebrity Fitness in Gurney Plaza, Penang. And that is only Part 1. Now, I am going to introduce Fitness First, Island Plaza, Penang, also Part 1. Without much fuss and more words to come, let the pictures do the talking because pictures tell a thousand words. Here we go...

The reception counter at the entrance.

The career advertisement put up at the entrance. Notice the leftmost guy (the one wearing the white sleeveless shirt) being hugged by another guy? Now, that's the guy I ogle the most. Cute, plus nice body.

The view (partly) of the front entrance reception counter and the staircase leading to changing rooms and fitness studio (to be shown later).

The male changing room (taken near the entrance).

Another viewing angle of the male changing room.

The free drink and rest lounge.

The abs workout equipments (the two equipments nearest to the photographer, that is me, are the stretch equipments, the rest are the abs workout equipments).

The top view of the cardio workout machines (the first row consists of stationary cycling equipments, while that in second and third rows are the treadmills and the ones nearest to the photographer are the step cardio equipments) - photo taken from halfway up the staircase.

Another top view of the free weight area. Notice those black weight barbells furthest from the photographer? Now, those weight barbells are weighed in pounds, not kilograms, unlike that in Celebrity Fitness. So, be careful when you hit those weights.

Another top-view angle of the free weight and other workout machines.

The entire viewing angle of the free weight and workout area (partly).

Part of the viewing angle of the cardio machines (some are hidden from view by the blue pillars).

There are more views of Fitness First Island Plaza to come, in the 2nd Part, so stay tuned, folks. And lastly, for those who have just joined, welcome to the family of Fitness First. For those who haven't, why not consider joining one?

Starbucks Coffee Curse

After a heavy dose of the strongest coffee (with the heaviest dose of caffeine) in Starbucks today (well, I ordered the large sized one), I feel dizzy now and a lot of feeling of uneasiness. Apparently, I thought of staying up late here in Starbucks to post another piclog, but I can't stand it anymore. Couldn't get myself up any longer to complete it. I think I am getting ill soon. It's like I have had a heavy dose of alcohol. Darn me! May melt (faint and collapse) anytime soon. Like a puteri lilin. Don't know if I am able to drive home safely. Anyway, pray for my safe journey back home.

Introducing Celebrity Fitness, Gurney Plaza, Penang - PART 1

Now, it's been quite a hiatus since I last post my blog, and that was indeed an amusing video that I had posted ages ago. Being a busy person that I am, writing a blog daily seems rather an upheaval task to undertake, since we are all working 8 to 9 hours a day, and by the end of the day, one might have some activities after work, such as attending Toastmasters Club meeting like what I have been doing today. But never mind, whatever the circumstances that may be, or tired as I may feel, I still painstakingly come over to Starbucks here (some miles away from my rented home) and blog the rest of the night away. Here we go, something different from what we have previously; so, instead of just writing words, words and more words all the way, might as well we see some differences here. Picture blogs, yes, that's what I call plogs, or piclogs, so what about it?

OK, that's the end of my plog or piclog. Ceh wah, looks like I am advertising and promoting Celebrity Fitness. Yeah right, I don't get commissions for doing this, but I love promoting things and places that I love. There are branches in One Utama, Bangsar Village II and Subang Parade, besides that in Gurney Plaza. There are also overseas branches, in Indonesia. For more info, please visit Celebrity Fitness.

More to come in 2nd part. So, how about joining one, folks?
