It’s Christmas eve and I’m sitting in front of the TV and notebook writing this piece… sneezing every minute till my throat hurts… yea, I’m having flu at the moment and it’s quite bad… not as bad as I’m totally knock out, but it just that tears keep on dropping from my eyes… then my nose will start feeling itchy which made me sneeze hard… very hard till my throat hurts… 😛

It started yesterday at office…  and I tried to fight it with paracetamol which did help a bit. I took 2 at office then 2 during the night…  I think that’s the most paracetamol I took in a day… usually I don’t take any paracetamol at all but use Ribena the concentrated fruity drink full with Vitamin C or just my Vitamin C pills… The reason I’m having this flu is I ran out of Vitamin C for the past 2 weeks… meaning I have not taken any of my usual daily 1000mg Vitamin C… I guess I’m too dependent with Vitamin C… 😛

So this morning when I woke up, it was not that bad… but after sometimes it was getting bad again… so I decided to visit the clinic at Hill Top around 11 am… and I was given a bottle of cough syrup and three types of pills… took a short nap just now… feeling a bit better with less runny nose now… 😀 Looks like I will be drowsy and shaggy most of the time during Christmas this time… but better than drunk… but I don’t drink anyway…. hahaha…

And today, there are many helicopters flying around… and one even landed near my house which looks new and guess they are just testing it… coz when it was approaching the ground, both ‘pilots’ open their door and look at the ground… probably checking whether the tires are touching the ground… and yes I said tires coz this heli is using tires instead of the usual two bars on both sides.

The Sabah Air 9M-YHM… Agusta A109S Grand

And the rest flying around are police helis… probably checking Christmas traffic jam or checking for potential flood area… yea the weather is gloomy and it looks llike going to rain… probably big rain tonite or tomorrow… 😛

Anyways, I found something COOL just now, I guess I’ve seen this before but was not paying too much attention… well it’s something military… something tough… something spy… something electronic… something small… something UFO… no, it’s not the miniature super tough military industrial pc… but it’s a drone… not a military drone but more as big boys toys… this drone has 4 rotors and remote controlled with Android… yea with Android phone or tablet… 😀 I want to get this next year since I can’t get this for Christmas…and want to use it to take aerial video… and ‘spy’… hahahaha… 😛

Merry Christmas… and have a great weekend… 😀

Happy Chinese New  Year to everyone… may the great Rabbit brings Good Health, Wealth, Happiness, Success, Joyful, Harmony, Longevity, Good Fortune and Good Feng Shui to all of us… 😀

Yea, the sound of fireworks are deafening the midnight right now… it’s like war out there… well, the sound is like war in the movie… not really sure how war is coz never experience any… and I’m not wishing for one… please, no war… glad the peace are always with us here 😀

So what do I expect for this rabbit year?… well, other than all those I mentioned above… I just want one more thing… during the Consumer Electronics Show 2011 last month… it’s undeniable that android dominated the show!!! Yea… everything was about android phones… android tablets… all are about Google!!!…Even Apple was not dare this time to showcase their iPad and iPhone…

But I don’t fancy all these android thingy… I do own one android tablet… the CSL Spice MI700… but that’s all about it… just an oversize smart phone. What I really want is the HP Slate… yea, the Windows 7 Pro tablet from HP… the SLATE!!!… It was launched in US late last year… I really wish it to be available here soon… with higher spec!!! What so great about this slate?… Well as you can see, it’s running on Windows 7… that’s mean it’s a pc… a smaller pc… a tablet pc… or whatever you like to call it… campared to adroid tablet or iPad, slate is a fully functional tab like a desktop pc… you can do almost anything you have on your desktop… flash… Photoshop… almost anything that runs on Windows 7… I really hope it will reach here soon… I want SLATE!!! I HATE iPAD!!!
