Loctor Mayat’s Autopsy

How are you all doing? Woahaha..

Yes… I know I know.. this blog has been collecting dust and dying off slowly. Do you know that, I haven’t been touching my camera for a long long time already? In fact, most of my shots are now taken using my Nokia big-ass-businessman phone E71.

If you think that the reason why I’ve abandoned this blog for so long is due to my son UltraBen. YOU’RE RIGHT! Woahahha

He is now 6 months ++ and growing up pretty well. Lately he just started his solid food intake and also learning how to crawl and sit. So, as a father.. I’ve been so busy whenever I’m at home spending whatever time I have with him. For me and Mrs Mayat, we do not have the luxury of our parents to help around taking care of UltraBen.

The usual weekday ritual is like this:

6:00am : Wake up and feed UltraBen his breakfast

7:15an : Leave home and send him to Baby Sitter

3:00pm : Mrs Mayat picks him up from Baby Sitter

6:00pm : Reach home and cook dinner, sometimes, take UltraBen down to the pool for a quick swim

7:00pm : Clean up and bath

8:00pm : Play with UltraBen

9:00pm : Feed UltraBen and put him down to sleep

Wah…. can be very tiring you know! Both of us are working to become a High Income Family (LOL) so lots of sacrifices need to be made. Yes, my photography is one of them so it’ll take a back seat for now. My D50 with 20mm F/2.8, 18-105mm VR, SB800 and SB600 should be seeing more action. Ha ha… sometimes feel kesian for them. Should I sell them leh? I also don’t know.. you tell me.

Nevertheless, Loctor Mayat is still around and is still very active online. In fact, if you are one of my friends in Facebook you’d see that everyday I will be there posting something laa.. haha.. don’t worry.. all online activities certified by UltraBen himself:

WOAHHAHAHA…

Another thing, for some strange reasons, lately I’ve developed a keen interest in home renovation/design/furnishing. I’ve done some upgrades to my rumah mayat and added some new furniture. In fact, not long ago I did another suicide day-trip down to the Swedish Embassy of Malaysia and got more than RM1k++ of stuff…

WOAHHAHA !!!

Sorry.. I don’t have so much free time to post how I set it up and all that review as I used to before.

but hor, I’ve been thinking that one day, I should document and blog down all about my upcoming home furnishing/design progress update. Maybe not now… perhaps… in 3 years time

Kekeke

till then… please add me in Facebook.. look for ‘Loctor Mayat’ and I’m there. I approve all friend request one so do it now lah!

Kamsiah kamsiah..

Hooo boy.. well lookie at my last post… November 30th~!

I guess I must have been really busy with the ongoing in my life right now. So what is happening actually?

Currently I’m in my last month at my current department at work and slowly transitioning my responsibilities to my very capable juniors. There are still some teething issues to solve but I’m pretty sure everything will be fine by the time I leave this group to join another department in Penang. Yeah, next year onwards I’ll be working in the Paper Mill’s Bayan Lepas plant, doing something totally different from what I’ve been doing for the past 8 years or so. It will be challenging but it will be exciting as well (I hope!). Ha ha ha! I still have 6 years++ worth of junk to pack and I’m taking it slowly. Currently I’m enjoying whatever time I have left here.

As for the family side, Mrs Mayat has now reached the 37th week of her pregnancy and Little Loctor will be coming into Planet Ultra anytime now. Thank goodness currently she is having her school holidays so she can prepare and have all the rest she can. Of course I am excited and yeah I am financially ready as well. I don’t need those “This is just the beginning” type of comments because I’m not that poor. LOL~! I’m just Kiamsiap™.

Ha ha ha.. speaking of being Kiamsiap™, thanks to the paper mill colleague’s suggestion, she asked me to go to those diapers website and check out whether they give out free samples or not. With that, I don’t have to spend to buy the diapers needed on Little Loctor’s first few days….

Well… a click here and some typing there…. within a week this came in my postbox:

WOahahhaha…. 2 pieces of Mamy Poko diapers for newborn… well, of course 2 only not enough la… so we’ve got to get more. Thanks to the paper mill factory again, I got some free shopping vouchers given by the management for excellent work done on doing nothing throughout the year. So, with those vouchers, I went out and got this too:

Woahahhaha…. so Kiamsiap™.

Anyhow, not long ago me and Mrs Mayat were strolling inside a nearby mall where we discovered a new cafe which serves cheap and simple meals. You know, like one of those several Old Town Kopitiam type of cafe?

Well.. since it’s new and we like surprises when it comes to food, we thought of giving it a go to see how it goes. Who knows we might stumble into a new food gem.

Oh yeah.. what a big surprise it was when the waitress passed us the food menu:

I almost laughed my ass off on the spot when I saw ‘Sweet and Smelly Pork Rice’. What the heck?

When I looked at the set meal menu, I was even more dumbfounded and almost can’t hold back my laughter..

WHAT IN THE WORLD???

Okay.. for goodness sake, boys and girls from young to old. No matter whatever it is, ENGLISH IS DAMN IMPORTANT laa…. hahahhaha.

How can you ask people to eat ‘Sweet & Smelly Pork Rice’ ????

So, anyhow, being the hero that I am, I bravely ordered the ‘Sweet and Smelly Chicken Rice’. After a few minutes of waiting, the food arrived and I finally understand the problem…

Woa Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha~!!

What ‘Sweet & Smelly’ laa???? It’s Kam Heong style cooking. Sweet and FRAGRANT laa for goodness sake.

Anyhow, this meal costs me RM3.80 which is rather okay for Penang standard. However, the food is nothing to shout about and maybe you’re already full when you first saw the menu. LOL~!!

So, anyhow, this is what I wanna say for now.

Thanks in advance for your well wishes with regards to Little Loctor. I shall post in detail about his delivery and of course the very first photo of him. Oooo… so excited!

Today you are already 7 months plus inside mummy’s tummy. Everyday without fail you will shake your buttock from left to right, top to bottom, which daddy find very amusing. Mummy said every time you do that, it means you are hungry, then Daddy needs to go find some food to feed her which indirectly feed you.

Ha ha….

We are already preparing all your stuff in your room. Do you know that you have TWO strollers? There are also lots of clothes too. All thanks to your Aunty Mayat who is your cousin Nicholas’ mummy. Also some of the stuff are given by Daddy’s colleague as well as Aunty. Wah.. thanks to them, until today I haven’t spent a single cent to buy your things yet. Ha  ha ha..

When you come out to this crazy world, Daddy will educate you at an early stage what is the meaning of being Kiamsiap. So next time when you grow up, you will save lots of money and get to buy more Nikon gold boxes which you will live in when you retire and grow old. Woahahahah

Today Daddy set up some simple lighting and did a high-key portrait shoot of you and your mummy. Of course you still can’t see us yet but I’m sure you can hear the Nikon SB-600 and Nikon Sb-800 speedlights going ‘BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEEEEEEP~~~’.

Don’t worry about that lah, it means you are exposed correctly. Ha ha ha…

Actually daddy wonders whether daddy can bring his camera inside the operating theater when the doctor is bringing you out into this world. Mummy said that if I do that she will throw my camera into Prai river.

Aiyah… anyhow, I’m going to sneak in the camera in my bag la… you don’t tell mummy okay. Later no camera liao how to take photo of me and you? EEKEKKEKEKKEEKEKK

Okay lah Little Loctor, daddy need to stop writing liao. The Bak Kut Teh is boiling in the pot and I need to go take care of it. Mummy is going to love it!!! She always does… and I’m sure you will enjoy daddy’s Bak Kut Teh too when you come out! Daddy will curi-curi replace your milk with Bak Kut Teh soup. WOWSH… damn nice!!

Till then.. Daddy lup u.

Lup,

Loctor “Daddy” Mayat

Today was the regular checkup at the local hospital for Mrs Mayat and the Little Loctor inside her. It’s very nice to go see the doctor on a weekday because we don’t have to wait at all unlike Saturdays. UGGH…

Anyhow, the doctor cautioned Mrs Mayat to consume more iron as her blood count is at the borderline. Other than that, the blood test results showed good results (e.g. HIV, Hepatitis, etc etc)

After that it’s time for the usual ultrascan for us to see the baby. This time we get to see the baby’s spinal cord, the big head, and various parts of the body including the umbilical cord. At 22 weeks, the baby is now 450 grams, almost the weight of two 20mm F/2.8D lenses. LOLOLOL…

This round, the doctor paid more attention to check out the are between the baby’s legs. LOL ~!!!

It’s pretty much confirm what gender is our baby. Ha ha ha…

So.. it’s another 20++ weeks to go before Little Loctor comes out and see his daddy for the first time in his life. LOL…

We managed to get a feel of the costs for the delivery and I must say… it’s certainly not too expensive nor cheap.

For normal delivery, it’s about RM2k inclusive of 1 night’s stay in a 6-person dorm room

For C-section delivery, it’s about RM1.5k more.

Epidural will increase the costs by another RM500 or so.

Well…. I’m sure Daddy will manage. Maybe some [WTS] threads in the local photography forum when the time comes to give up all my photography equipments and accesories.

HAHAHAHAHHAH

NOT!
