Being exposed to the hot sun too for long added with the thick haze nowadays is not only bad to the lung but to the skin too.

Being at the horse race track with all the dust flying around under the hot sun then dashing to take photos of the firemen putting out fire near the race horse track actually exposing my lung to all kinds of bad elements… horse germs, dust, smoke… everything goes into my lung… and deep into my skin… probably the reasons I’m having the itchy palms and soles!!!

And at the end of the day, my skin face become too oily… too shiny… too reflective… cleaning my face by scrubbing it with normal soap alone don’t really help… after rinsing the, the skin still oily and looks black… 😛 I have to use Oxy as blackhead removal then only the black face turn a bit fairer… 😆

Well, I have to get used to these if I want to continue with this hobby and turn myself into an extreme adventure photographer… 😀

Life was hectic after I came back from KL on the 22 November 2009. There were so many works to be done in a short period and they keep coming… 😛

So today went to 1Borneo to let go some steam… shooting with bow and arrows… yea there is a new game at the 3rd floor of 1Borneo… the game is quite dangerous coz it involve arrow… a weapon which can hurt and kill!

The place is quite secure but more safety precautions should be put in place… especially when the workers go inside to collect the arrows. Who knows if someone accidentally let go an arrow and hit any of the worker… accident will not allow disability appeal… if the arrow hit the eye, that’s it… blind is the name!!! No turning back… you can’t appeal… 😛

Anyway, the game is only RM9…

On the fist day of November, which happens to be All Saints Day, I had a bad self accident during a paintball game. There are about 20 over of us from the MCSE class playing.

I fall down while trying to shift from one bunker to the other. It was the last match… it is actually an additional match after most of the other went back… only about 9 of us left and we decided to play 3 on 3.

My left trigger finger… index finger… was badly torn… coz I fall down and the trigger finger was absorbing my fall… holding my 95kg body weight!!! But lucky it did not brake to the opposite but instead get torn…

Went to clinic at Donggongon and had 5 stitches on it. Supposed to remove the stitches on 10th day, but I was away in KL for the Hacker Halted 2009… at the end I only manage to remove it on the 14th November at Medicare Clinic in Mid Valley, KL.

Then had it x-ray on Monday, 16th November, at the same clinic coz I was worried something might be broken inside… yea, should have x-ray it before it get stiched… 😛

But anyway, I’m lucky nothing broken inside… except it is still swollen till now and still cant bend it completely.

Next, I need to do insurance quotes… errr.. insurance claim… I must get my insurance to refund me all the medical bills… and plus 2 weeks of allowance… probably RM150 per week… 😀

Thanks to Donny who send me to the clinic and helping to take the photos inside the clinic… 😀

The torn trigger finger

Not crying… just giving pressure to the arm to reduce pain while getting clean… 😛

Stiching…

and stiching…

Stiched… 😛

Getting anti-tetanus jab.

OK, I have been missing for almost 4 weeks from this blog… 😛

Well, there are many things went by for the past 24 days…

Let me just summarize what happen for the past 24 days… and later I will talk more about it in the next postings…

Fist day of November, I injured myself during in a friendly paintball game… other than face mask, I did not use any other protective gear… not even breeches… lol.. only use my standard clothing… t-shirt with short pants… I played 3 matches… but on the third match I use a vest… and that is the time I injured my finger and end up with 5 stitches!!!

On the second week of November, I was away in KL for Hackers Halted 2009… it was fun but the rainy days with dry air in KL made my lips cracked. I’m glad to be back home and enjoy the cool breeze here.

Third week, I was waiting for my paintball team in KL for the World Cup Asia 2009 – Paintball Asia Series (PALS) which runs from 19 to 22 November 2009. My team, Predator Sabah, played in Division 4. Another team, Kinabalu Legion played in Division 3.

Forth week, feeling exhausted and back to work… 😛
