Doctor’s Appointment

August 25th, 2008

I had an appointment with Dr. Fong today. I was wondering if he’d still be in China cuz his daughters were competing in the Olympics. It turned out he’s back already. He was surprised to see me and asked me if I was ok and if everything is ok. I was a little puzzled about [...]

I recently read this book “The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich” and I really like it cuz it goes with the way I think and it provided some good tips and tricks that I can use. I am going to incorporate some of the ideas into my daily personal [...]

Project Get Ripped!

I have been exercising every other day for the past few weeks which is really good. I do some push ups, sit ups, bicep curls, shoulder raises, and jumping jacks. Just recently, my friend posted online that he’s on P90X. I was curious and so I googled it. It turned out to be an extreme [...]

Carnegie Mellon Professor Randy Pausch (Oct. 23, 1960 – July 25, 2008) gave his last lecture at the university Sept. 18, 2007, before a packed McConomy Auditorium.

Medi-Port Update

June 19th, 2008

The medi-port incision area is fine. Still a very very minor pain when pressed upon but it’s no big deal. The tape and Dermabond is still in tact. I am thinking maybe I should peel the tape off. It’s been about 9 days after the procedure.

June 12th, 2008

I went in for the procedure on Tuesday 6/10 and it went very smoothly. I was able to leave the same day as planned. The entire thing took about 4.5 hours, in a summary, from meeting up with sister, signing in, get undressed and into hospital gown (I luv the gown, robe, and the socks), [...]
