If you look at the policemen… some of them are way out from fit to chase crooks… they are fat with big tummy… they are just not fit for doing fast activity… well, you can’t blame the public when they said that… coz usually fat people can’t run fast… and crooks usually thin, skinny and run very fast…

Anyway, I’m not going to talk about fats or fat people here… some fat people are sometimes better than those skinny people coz some fat people are way more active and fit than those who are skinny…

OK, the news today about Corporal Dai Bao Xiang, a 51 years old policewoman who throws her uniform into dustbin right after she resign really caught my eyes… why?… civil servants cease their service when they reach the age of 56… pension… and this policewoman is only 5 years short from her pension… instead of taking early pension, she resign… why???

She said, she tendered her resignation letter to her superiors at the Gombak district police headquarters in Selangor on Monday becoz she is unhappy with the hectic workload and little increment. “This was not a hasty decision. I had given it a serious thought,” she said.

She said she had lost 20kg since she was promoted to corporal and transferred to the Selayang police station as an enquiry section head last year… this is a good place to those overweight policemen… no need for supplements for weight loss

Dai said she only received RM50 increment after her promotion, however her other wages of up to RM500 including a motorcycle allowance were discontinued… so unfair… get promoted but get pay less… “That means my actual income is lower than what I had received before,’’ she told the media…

I found out that the electro acupuncture I just bought can work as a body shaper… it can help reduce weight… burn fats… but I’m not sure if it is as good as the best weight loss supplement you can buy out there… But I’m having fun using the device… the electric shocks it gives really make you awake… when the electrode or the slippers which have electrode are used, your nerve and muscles moves out of you control… it just follow the electric shocks rhythm… you can’t stop the your muscles from moving… no matter how hard you try to stiffen your body…

Supposed to do gym tonight… but unfortunately it was blackout at City Mall. I arrived there around 7.10pm… only certain parts of the mall are lit up. I ask one of the shop keepers how long the blackout has been… he said quite sometime…

The gym is totally out… there is no single light I can see inside the gym… on the 1st and 2nd floor of the mall. So, I called Disney… who is also coming to the gym… he was still on his way. I told him about the blackout… then we decide to abandon the gym… and decided to go for night photography instead…

Since I did not bring my camera, I have to go back home… same with him. Going back is another hard part… there was a massive traffic jam at the main road outside the mall… and I was stuck there about half hour before manage to make a U-turn.

For the photography, we went to Kota Kinabalu’s Central Market… around it, there are many stalls selling foods… its quite lively… so we spend quite a long time there… and I was sweating and damm tired walking around… but well, since we did not go for gym, this is good way to do quick weight loss…

After that, we proceeded to KDCA to take photos of the dragon lanterns… and it was so tiring… worse than doing exercise at the gym… I have to use every part of my muscle to stretch out to have a good view of the dragons…

The other day I watch in Oprah talk show how a super huge man loose over 700 pounds in 19 months!!! That’s what we call slimquick!!!

The man, Mike Hebranko, during his life has gained and lost over 3,000 pounds. When he was 34, he reached his heaviest weight of 1,100 pounds. He said during that period he can take 24 pork chops, 2 pounds of bacon and three dozen of eggs at one serving!!!

Then he lost his will to live… he put a gun in his mouth but lucky he came to his senses… instead he wrote a letter to weight loss personality Richard Simmons.

With Simmons coaching, Hebranko created a world record in weight loss by loosing more than 700 pounds in 19 months. The record earned Michael a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records as one of the world’s greatest dieters, losing the most amount of weight in the least amount of time.

Next week, the three McDonald’s restaurants in Reykjavik, Iceland, will be close for good.

The collapse of the Iceland’s krona currency has forced McDonald to take the big bite out of the country. It’s a big loss to the fast food lovers in that country… especially to the BigMac lovers…

It must be hard to imagine… a place without McDonald!!!

Health conscious group must be laughing their head’s off after receiving the good news… They will be happy that there will be no more overweight people in their country… but more skinny people… and it’s going to be a bad business for those who are doing sliming products business in Iceland… there is no use to advertise slimming product in Iceland anymore… no use to pop-up ‘click here for weight loss pills’ advertisement in their internet browser from now on…

Good luck to Icelanders without Big Mac… and Icelanders please say good bye to McDonald…

The MCSE class I’m attending on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 6.00 PM to 9.30 PM is getting… errrr… interesting?

First, we have elected our class head through an electronic voting last week… well through the yahoo group voting to be more precise.

This week, there will be no class… since it is the Harvest Festival or Tadau Kaamatan on Saturday and Sunday… scared too many gets too drunk or eat too much during the festival then cannot come to class.

And since it falls on Sunday, today, Monday, is a public holiday here in Sabah. Tomorrow, Tuesday, have to go back to work… grrrrr…

Last Friday I took a day leave to give some assistant to take video for a charity cause. I was not doing it alone, a friend was doing the video thingy… and I was just snapping photos here and there Will talk about the charity next time…

OK, back to the class issues… since we have elected our class head, there are suggestions regarding doing some activities or outing other than just coming for the class. As usual, with all the ‘crazy’ students, there were some crazy suggestions.
