Hello everyone! Yes, Psycho Bitch is still alive, very much so. Wondering why PB have gone silent for so bloody long eh?
Well, my dad was admitted to hospital 4 weeks ago….matter of the heart, again. And he just had his bypass last week….all went well, recovering steadily and rapidly. My dad is completely like a new person. Almost like a new lease of life given to him! Thank God and to those of you who’s been praying for him!
Have you ever tried googling yourself…or anyone for that matter?
While having my coffee this morning, I decided to google search myself. OMG! Seriously, speak about the age of internet! There WERE information about me, how to locate and contact me! Even my bloody Twitter account was available…lol! There were even pictures of me from my first triathlon…scaryyyyyy!!!
Oh, I googled for Hammy 3 and LB….yep, found you guys too!
Privacy? Whatever happened to that???
Those who know me personally…can vouch that I can be quite OCD (Hammy 3…note keyword “quite”). Nooooo….I am not completely OCD to the point where I must wash my hands 10,000 times, or check the door shut 5x.
But, at times, I can drive some people mad, ie…like making sure my bags NEVER EVER touches the floor, my toilet roll must face a certain way, my mobile must never face down..etc etc etc…
Just when I thought nobody can be more OCD than me…AHA! How wrong I was when I came face to face with an OCD counterpart couple of days back at my manicurist’s.
JY (my beloved manicurist) and I were happily chatting as she was doing my manicure, when she suddenly startled me with “OH SHIT! 10 minutes more…FARK….she coming lah!!!”
And here I was shocked with the sudden exclamation, soon discovered that one of JY’s most OCD client was swinging by.
This was what JY HAD to do before MISS OCD arrived:
1.Wipe down the sofa….with disinfectant…AND MIND you, JY had to make sure that the disinfectant ‘smell’ stayed on for as long (and as strong) as it can, else MISS OCD will throw a hissy fit!
2. Scrub down the sink (where we soak our feet for pedicure) with Dettol…over and over and over again…THEN spray it with more disinfectant.
3. Take out MISS OCD’s ‘own’ cushion from the store….
4. Disinfect the door handle!!! (I subsequently found out that MISS OCD opens the door with her elbows, not her hands! Else she will scrub down like crazeeeee)
5. Poor JY even had to spray her place with room disinfectant (one of those thingy from Ambi Pur)
I could see the stress in JY’s face…and apparently all of these were only for PRE-ARRIVAL of MISS OCD! Yes, I was told there is normally more stuff to do when she ARRIVES……well fortunately for me, I didn’t get to stay and meet MISS OCD.
However, is good to know I am not alone and there are worse cases out there…..
The gym….a place where we all go sweat out our fats, pressure from work and for some of us, pleasure from the pain inflicted upon ourselves.
But, have you ever wondered about gym cleanliness? After all, you get 1001 blokes and chicks using every goddamn machines and apparatus, coupled with their very sweaty hands (depending on your luck, the guy may not even have washed his hands after pee pee) and bods.
I could, more or less, through observation point out areas in the gym where it could be listed as the few dirtiest, or should I say ‘germ-iest’!
Here goes:
1. Mats – have you ever seen number of bodies that lie on those mats?
2. Dumbells, barbells, weight machines – if the guy before you had washed his hands after pee pee, then is slightly better. Else, just imagine all those hands (god knows where they have all been!).Better yet, if the guy before you, out in a pair of really, really short tight underwear……suggest you bring a bottle of Dettol to disinfect that seat!
3. Bicycle seat – I don’t even wanna go near this one….the number of sweaty ass……hope you clean your bikes before jumping onto it!
4. Toilets and shower – do you really want me to elaborate on this? I am sure for those of us who hang out at the gym, we have seen what we don’t need to see.
So, the next time you are at the gym, think about the hygiene and maybe walking around with a packet of disinfectant wipes would be a great idea!
Did my first race after my operation last Saturday – The Energizer Night Run 2011. I ran ok, not too bad for someone who hasn’t run for good 2 months.
But what was even more disappointing was not my run, but more of the organizer. It was such a poorly organized marathon that I have encountered personally.
*The first water station encountered was at the 4th km mark…hmmm…normally there would be one in sight at the 2km mark…you cannot assume that everyone in the race are experienced runners and that they can wait till 4km mark to hydrate.
*Surprisingly what was at the 2km mark was a St John’s station for runners to ease their cramps…seriously…at the 2km mark…plzzzz…we were just warming up!
*Water was not served in cups. Instead we had the options of either grabbing a 1.5litre bottle or can/s of Gatorade!!!! Goodness gracious…how do u expect us to finish the 1.5 litre bottle of water at one go???!!! You damn stupid organizer! Hence, can we all imagine the wastage and ALLLLLLL the plastic bottles thrown in the circuit!
*As we cross the finish line, there was not even a MILO van in sight nor water nor Gatorade! (And I found out much later that all of these were parked behind part of the building, where you will first need to fight the damn 2km queue for Goodie Bag, BEFORE you get to the drinks!). In most races, these are all available and IN SIGHT couple of meters away FROM the finishing line!
*I don’t even wanna talk about the Goodie bag collection…let’s not even start!
All I know is I paid RM 50 for entry fee, RM 10 for farking parking in some stupid palm oil estate which had no proper lighting, RM 15 for toll, RM 15 for petrol…..
To the Energizer Night Run organizers and the brand owners….do you seriously think you will be getting the same support from the runners in 2012? Think again….
