My Photos From eoe Online

Yesterday afternoon someone knocked at the door. Must be Mr Courier Man sending me my photos from eoe Online. It was the 3rd day. The e-mail confirmation from eoe Online said the photos will arrive within 3 working days.

Oooo..really oh..arrived within 3 days wor. Mamarazzi ordered 50pieces of 4R photos and 2 pieces of 8R photos.

They company very "seng muk". Put a piece of card board to support the 8R photos so that it would get crumpled.

Wow! I look so handsome in big print.

They even put the 4R photos into two small albums for me. Just like those Kedai Gambar.

Quality wise not bad. Those outdoor photos are clear but indoors photos not as good.

This is NOT eoe Online fault. It's Mamarazzi's camera fault. The setting not right. Or rather the "user" not right. Must ask her to learn photography from Jie Jie uLi and Uncle Vialentino.


Hmmm...I can't seems to stop admiring my photos. Mamarazzi called me Narcissus. Said am vain.

Don't care lah. Mamarazzi is just jealous that I am more photogenic than her mah.


This is a good place to put my photo with Papa. Later Papa come home from work sure he will be very happy.

Next mission is to go "bodek" Mamarazzi to get more of my photos printed. Must take advantage of the current promotion that eoe Online is having. Mana lagi nak dapat such good offer? 4R print at only RM0.30 and free delivery (subject to terms and condition)for orders above RM35.00. Durian runtuh leh.

The Story of The Nodes

On 2nd July, Mamarazzi woke up with this nasty lump on her neck. She thought nothing of it. Maybe just heatiness due to too much durian or what.


Then on 4th of July it became worse. More lumps appeared. Mamarazzi started to feel weird. And thought of going to the doctor the next day.

Somehow an angel must have been watching us as Auntie Florence text Mamarazzi for a chit chat and the matter of the lump came up.

She immediately said she'll come over in the morning to bring Mamarazzi to the doctor. Papa was not around.


The next day we went to the clinic. The 1st clinic immediately refer Mamarazzi to specialist. This really shocked her.

Thus we went for a 2nd opinion. The 2nd clinic use a ultra sound scanner and scanned Mamarazzi's neck. Found that four Lymph Nodes were enlarged/swollen.

According to the Doctor, the Lymph Nodes are swollen because some bacteria/virus is attacking Mamarazzi's body and the Lymph Nodes acts as quarantine center. The Lymph Nodes are trying to fight the bacteria/virus.

The doctor asked Mamarazzi whether she would like to be refer to the hospital or that she would like to try antibiotic first.

Mamarazzi opt to try antibiotic first.


The first day taking the antibiotic, Mamarazzi's neck felt a burning sensation. Maybe the antibiotic was trying to fight the bacteria/virus.

But then after 3 days of antibiotic, more swollen Lymph Nodes appeared. Looks like Mission Failed.


Haiz...what to do...have to go to the Hospital. We went to Private Hospital in view that the lumps seems to be growing very rapidly.

Lucky, once again Auntie Florence and Uncle Patrick came and helped. They brought Mamarazzi to the Hospital. Uncle Patrick babysit me and I managed to con him into buying KitKat Chocolate for me.

Meanwhile, Mamarazzi and Auntie Florence went and see the Cartoon Specialist.

Why "Cartoon Specialist"? That one you have to ask Auntie Little Bird. Mamarazzi unwittingly chosen a Doctor whose name is similar to a Cartoon character...unfortunately the antics of the doctor was also very "cartoon".


The Cartoon Specialist ordered a whole series of tests.

Omigosh! These are the scan of Mamarazzi multiple swollen lymph nodes. The largest being 2.2cm x 1.16cm. No wonder so painful.


The report on the Chest X-Ray and the Ultra Sound of the neck.

Also did a test on TB, in which Mamarazzi became a Guinea Pig to a Trainee nurse. Haiyo! The expert Indonesian nurse was teaching the Malaysian Trainee nurse. Mamarazzi buta-buta kena jab twice by the Trainee.


In the end, the Cartoon Specialist prescribed a week of antibiotic and painkiller to Mamarazzi. If by the end of the week the swelling yet to go down, Mamarazzi will have to have more test done and maybe biopsy or surgery.

After taking the antibiotic for two days, there was no improvement. Also Mamarazzi started to have swollen gums and toothache.


Once again, Auntie Florence came to help. We went to the dentist and he checked. Said Mamarazzi have gums problem.

Mamarazzi told him about the Lymph Nodes and the Cartoon Specialist medication.

The dentist saw the medication and told Mamarazzi that she need to take Metro which is for bacteria that can survived without air.

After taking the antibiotic for 3 days, Mamarazzi can feel the swelling had reduced a bit.


By then it was time to go back to the Cartoon Specialist for a follow up. Mamarazzi thought there would be good news since the swelling had gone down slightly.

Mana tau when we went into the Cartoon Specialist's room he press press the lumps and straight say no improvement. Didn't even do any scan. Straight asked Mamarazzi to do biopsy and enquire about Mamarazzi's health insurance status.

He seems happy when he heard Mamarazzi have health insurance and wanted to pass documents to Mamarazzi for signing.

He said he have to cut out one of the swollen Lymph Nodes for the biopsy and it's a minor surgery. Mamarazzi asked the cost and he told Mamarazzi a figure.

Mamarazzi remembered reading Eugene's blog hospital charging different amount for cash payment and medical card payment. She was determined to test the Cartoon Specialist. She asked him whether there is any difference. He told Mamarazzi there is no difference. Everything control by the Medical Board.

By his answer, Mamarazzi had lost confidence in him. Because Mamarazzi know that there is difference. Not only because of Eugene blog but because of her friends who are in insurance line told her the same thing.

There are also certain other issue which made Mamarazzi lost confidence in him but not appropriate to reveal here.

She thus told the Specialist that she need to think first. Moreover Papa was coming home the next day. Need to discuss with Papa


After discussion with Papa, we decide most probably the bacteria is from the gums. The next day which was a Saturday, Mamarazzi woke up slightly flu-ish. Maybe jangkit the flu from me.

Papa bring us the Dentist once again for an emergency appointment. The Dentist checked and saw the gums have much improved. Advised that Lymph Nodes will need some time to get back to normal. But if in a week or two if it's still very swollen then should go seek Specialist. He prescribed another round of antibiotic.



Mamarazzi took the antibiotic. But when she arrived home the flu was quite bad. Thus she took a Clarinese for flu.

No long after that she started to have terrible headache. By night time whole face was red and some rashes on the hand.

Thought maybe the antibiotic clash with Clarinese. She drank a lot of water to clear the toxin.

By Sunday, body started to have rashes. Sunday tarak Doctor. Mamarazzi had time and thus she googled her symptom. Seems like similar to rubella as Mamarazzi had most of the symptoms except from fever and red eyes.

Extracted from www.mayoclinic.com

The signs and symptoms of rubella are often so mild that they're difficult to notice, especially in children. If signs and symptoms do occur, they generally appear between two and three weeks after exposure to the virus. They typically last about two to three days and may include:

  • Mild fever of 102 F (38.9 C) or lower
  • Headache
  • Stuffy or runny nose
  • Inflamed, red eyes
  • Enlarged, tender lymph nodes at the base of the skull, the back of the neck and behind the ears
  • A fine, pink rash that begins on the face and quickly spreads to the trunk and then the arms and legs, before disappearing in the same sequence
  • Aching joints, especially in young women

Mamarazzi was vaccinated for Rubella before. It seems that though vaccinated, there is always a 5% chance of failure where the body didn't develop antibodies for it.

Thus, Monday we went to clinic. The Doctor said could be allergic reaction to the medication and advise us to go to hospital. But he did gave some medicine to reduce the rashes and itchiness.

By Tuesday the rashes had increased and we went to Sg Buloh Hospital.



Aisey...thought the hospital very "Cheh Kai" but was real surprised that it's very modern and efficient. In fact more efficient that the Private Hospital that we went to.

Mamarazzi asked the Specialist there whether it could be Rubella. But the Doctors did not directly answer Mamarazzi. They said it could be anything. But most probably it's due to the various kinds of medicine that Mamarazzi have been taking.

They did not give anymore medication to Mamarazzi as they said any bacteria/virus that needs to be kill are already dead from all the antibiotics that she have been taking. The rashes are just the end result. They give Mamarazzi calamine lotion and anti itching medicine. Mamarazzi was to go back in a week time for biopsy if the lump still there.



That week, Papa had to fly again. We stayed home and self quarantine just in case it's Rubella. Ya..that's why Mamarazzi have been having "Bookathon" for the past two weeks.

Anyway, we went back to the hospital for follow up last week. Most of the swollen Lymph Nodes are back to normal. Left only the initial one still slightly swollen.

The Specialist said since we were there, might as well do the biopsy for our peace of mind. This one is simpler than what the private Hospital had intended to do. Here, they just insert needle into the lymph nodes and took some tissue sample.

Saw the two punctured marks? Nope...not bitten by the Vampire. Those were the place where the Doctor jab jab Mamarazzi to take sample. Can see the lumps visibly smeller size, right?

Well...all seems to be well now. Till the next follow up in September...yipee!

Father And Son Bonding Time

Mamarazzi was unwell that day. Lay on the bed like mayat hidup with me getting very restless.

Thus, Papa took me go gai gai to let Mamarazzi recuperate at home.

Papa brought me to Dan Neh Noh for some father and son bonding time.

Guess what Papa told Mamarazzi when we got home? He said rupa-rupa I love Dan Neh Noh not for the food. Rather I love the Playland and the Happy Meals Toy especially if it is toy car.


Papa also got me this Barney Bag. We went into the shop. I wanted the Pink Hello Kitty Trolley Bag but Papa bought me this one.


Then Papa also got me this remote control toy car. I love it.



Here is a video of me playing with the remote control toy car. Please ignore the messy background. Mamarazzi still not that well yet.

A Surprise From Who?

Yesterday afternoon as Mamarazzi was making "Turtle Jelly", the postman came knocking.

Hmm...Mamarazzi thought it was photos delivery from eoe Online. But couldn't be ah. The e-mail from eoe Online said 3 working days. Not yet 3 working days wor.

Nope, it was not from that company. It was from LVBeii.

I wonder what is it. Very "kan cheong". Hand not enough to open the envelope. Use legs also.



What? Me boy ma! More ganas one la. Tear and tear everything one la. Can open faster mah.

Wow! it's not a book. It's TWO books.

The Lenglui Mummy knew Mamarazzi gila books and she sent Mamarazzi two books.

Thank you very much, Beii!

Restaurant 88, Continental Park (Updated August 2010)



We went to Restaurant 88 again. Had a nice meal there earlier this year. I love to play with the swirling thingy..turn turn turn...till my "Happy Mug" fly off the table.


Kena Mamarazzi scold. Mamarazzi scold me, I go manja with Papa. If Papa scold me, I go manja with Mamarazzi. If both scold me I go manja with Auntie Florence. Clever eh?


Service very efficient and fast. Rice comes in a tub.


Aiks! what is Papa face doing inside the tub?





Mamarazzi originally had wanted to have Steam Fish but at the Taukeh's recommendation, we had this Tomato sauce fish. No regrets. Taste very good.



Of course we had to order their Kampung Chicken also. Taste very good especially with their special sauce. Don't know what they put in it.


Errr...don't ask me why but now Mamarazzi gila this Salad Leave pulak. Hmm...this one a bit overcooked.

Sweet Potatoes leaves. Taste good. Young.


Taufu with Angle Gourd. Mamarazzi said too much pepper but the rest said taste good.


Yam Basket.


I just loooove the crunchy "bihun" from the Yam Basket. Yummmy!


Over priced fruits. Guess how much for this plate of two mango and a few slices of watermelon? RM15!!! Nuts!!

Seems that the fruits is not under the Restaurant. Separate vendor. Some more we discovered that there are some black thingy on the ice. Mamarazzi do not recommend you to order fruits if you were there.

Total bill excluding the fruits comes up to RM125. Not bad considering 5 adults and a kid eating.

A special THANK YOU to Uncle Patrick, Auntie Florence and Auntie Siew for everything ..the love and the care.

Celebrate at Restaurant SF Seafood, Kg Baru Sg Buloh(Updated August 2010)

Eh! This place looks familiar. Oh ya! I was born here. Why am I here again?


Well, waiting to see Doctor lor. No Doctor aren't sick. I was. The other day I had CCF,right? Well, after that some rashes appeared on my back. Papa and Mamarazzi panic lor. Measles ke? Chicken Pox?

Sunday Pead mana ada open. Thus, Papa brought me to Dr Surindar, the doctor who deliver me.

Dr Surindar checked and said it's nothing. Very common one. Some kids will have rashes after they had fever or sick.

Aisay..how was Papa to know that wor. Coz touch wood, I seldom fall sick punya.

Hehehe...clean bill of health. Thus, I "celebrated" with makan-makan outside lo. Went to Restaurant SF Seafood at Kg Baru Sg Buloh coz the service is fast. Oh boy! I was real hungry.




While waiting for the food, I entertained myself playing with my car car. My latest craze...toy cars.


Mamarazzi said just order some "Cheng-cheng" dishes. Salad leave. RM6. See! Portion much bigger that the SEXY Chicken Rice place.


Bitter Gourd Soup. Taste very good. A lot of ginger. Takes out all the wind. You should hear Papa and me playing "trumpet" the whole night coz of the wind.


Steamed Cod Fish. Rather expensive at RM30. Not that nice as the meat was rather "fat".


Papa beh tahan and wanted something spicy. Thus, we ordered Kung Poh Sotong. The sotong not that good though portion is big.

Overall, it was a good meal.

Dan Neh Noh GCB

Went to Dan Neh Noh the other day.


They were having promotion on GCB(Grilled Chicken Burger). Looking at the illustration photo...waaa...so big ah...


But the original burger came..rather disappointing. So small geh. Taste wise okay okay la.


ARGH!? Happy Meal no more Batman Toy ah? Give me so girlish toy geh.


Hang it on my ear? or on my wrist? which one better? Sure Cikgu STP will laugh at me again.

Bedtime Stories And Prayers By Enid Blyton-The Poor Woman In The Temple



Money is getting "smaller" each day. Last time RM3 can get a large bowl of noodle. Nowadays, RM3 sometimes won't even be enough for a bowl of noodle.


But we are quite lucky as not far from our place there is this Economy Rice Stall which price is reasonable. Mamarazzi had blog about this here, They have plenty dishes.

Can save a lot if eat here. This plate of rice, with Taugeh, Vegetable, Taufu and chicken cost RM2-70 only.

Speaking of money...here is another story from Enid Blyton book

There was once a poor widow in Jerusalem. She had to work very hard for her money.

She went to the House of God often to pray. She love the peace that she found there.

It was Festival Week and as usual she went to the Temple to pray.

There was a Collection Box at the Temple where people are supposed to put money inside. And people are not supposed to put less than a penny.

The poor woman saw that people are putting more money that that.

Now, the poor woman only have two mites, which together made a half penny. She was ashamed to put so little into the Collection Box but that was all the money that she had. She went to a corner and put it in hoping that nobody would see. But somebody did see.

Jesus saw. He observed her since she stepped into the church and had thought that she won't be able to afford even a half penny. Then , he saw she put in two mites.

He thus told his disciples that he saw rich men putting a lot of money into the Collection box but the old woman put in two mites. And yet, she had put in much more that everyone else. They put in what they can spare, but the old woman had put in everything that she has. And in the eyes of the God, her two mites are more than all that the rich men had put in together.

What a lovely story. Even Mamarazzi aren't as generous as that. If only I could be as generous. But in these modern days, if I did that, most people would call it stupidity. Sad aren't it?
