IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT...

Hickory Dickory dock,
The mouse ran up the clock,
The clock struck one
The mouse ran down,
Hickory Dickory dock so goes  the nursery rhymes
only in my case the mouse did not went up the clock, but I was rudely awakened by a loud noise. Bang! I woke up look around the room , then look out my window to see if anything  was wrong with my car. I thought the tyres must have blown.  I guess when you are half a sleep, your mind don't seems to be working too well.  But my car seems  ok so I went to sleep and look up at the wall where my clock used to be. It's is my habit to look at the clock whenever I am awake or go to bed. It was only then I reliased the clock felled down during the night.



Good thing it did not land on my Iphone which on the table.What was the cause?
This was the reason :-

the Double sided tape gave way. It no longer can hold on to the wall.








Now I have to get me a new clock and this time I have to use a wall nail. They don't make double sided tapes like they used to.

I CAN'T BELIEVE I GOT TALK INTO DOING THIS.

I was aching all over and thought a good massage will do me some good. After church service I found myself in a chinese operated foot reflexlogy shop. I told them I wanted a body massage and then this lady or rather girl started telling me I got body heat and suggested I do  cupping instead. For the benefit of those who have not heard of cupping.
Cupping is an ancient Chinese method of causing local congestion. A partial vacuum is created in cups placed on the skin either by means of heat or suction. This draws up the underlying tissues. When the cup is left in place on the skin for a few minutes, blood stasis is formed and localized healing takes place.
 Read the rest of the article here.
Here is another article  at this link.
Soon I found myself lying face down and she was placing cups all over my body, after she has introduce a lighter inside to induce heat. I could feel the suction on my skin which was quick painful.(Yes I admit I can't stand pain) Then she started telling me , see see, all the toxic coming out the whole bottle cup is turning white.  I thought of shouting lady I don't have any eyes behind my head how to see?  Anyway I was struggling with the pain and did not bother to response to her excitement.
After about ten minutes or so she started to remove the cups one by one, it was a good feeling needless to say. I don't know how it has help me, but from what I read in some of the blog, one is suppose to feel lighter?  But one thing I know, I will have to bear with the bruises on my back for days to come.

SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR TYRES

I have always been told new tyres should be mounted in the front, but after watching this video,which makes sense. Perhaps we have been misinformed all this while?

Tyres, brakes and steering system are the three most important items in a car that can seriously affect safety. Do not compromise on the repair or replacement. Watch this video.

HELLO ,PUSSY CAT DOLL

I Have been receiving a lot of missed calls lately.The numbers were just alien to me. A few months ago I would have just ignored it, as I was no longer in the work force. I know if it is really important the caller will call back again,if they happen to know me.
But since I just started on a new job now, I  just cannot simply ignored it, in case it was a customer or worst still from the boss. Well you know these days it is not uncommon for people to carry more than one handphone. I had his official number but not the other one so there is no way I would be able to recognise his other number right? So to play safe I called back the number and sweet young thing answer "hello yÇ’u kòng guòlái wán ma" which directly translate as Hello are you free to come over to play? Play what ? I answered. Well, I am  not sure if I was naive or dumb. It took be quite a while before I realised I was not having a conversation with a sales girl(well in a way yes) but rather a pussy cat doll(china doll if you like) .I am not refering to the  singing group  here.There was a couple of similiar calls with similar way of answering. I am not sure if they dailed my number at random or somebody have been selling my number to these sales girls. How times have changed and now a days they are so bold to do telemarketing to promote their 'trade"to customers or victims like me.
