I am scared.

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

My back problem is acting up again.  I couldn’t walk now and lying on the bed isn’t too comfortable for me.

It all happened this afternoon in the office.  We wanted to go for lunch, then when I stood up, I felt the pain.  I could barely walk since then.  Came home after resting in the office for a while.

I am scared because I don’t know what will happen to me.  We’ve tried everything we could in the past and nothing helped.  I hope I don’t have to go through the pain again.

The magazine’s dateline is nearing as well and I have a lot of things that needs to be done.  I told Ken and he said he’ll handle it.  If this goes on longer, I might be quitting my job.  I can’t be nursing my pain but leave the responsibilities to my colleagues, that’s just not right. 

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking.  After the epidural injection last year, I had one of the best times of my life.  I got the job I wanted, I met a lot of new people through the job, I traveled around and getting paid by doing all these.  I could do all these things as my back was well. 

Today, I will be losing all these, one by one.

I am in total breakdown mode.  I don’t know what to do.

My deepest condolences

Just got the news that one of my good friend’s father passed away. I’ll be going to the mourning service tonight.

The news came to me as very sudden. His dad wasn’t that old, in his 50s I think and he is one of the most active middle aged person I know. A while back I played badminton with him (before my back problems) and I couldn’t keep up with his pace, that’s how active he is.

I hope Kah Fei is strong enough to endure the passing of his dad.

My deepest condolences. May he rest in peace.

How to print screen a whole page

Friday, July 4th, 2008

I’ve been following Wendy Cheng (XiaXue) and Dawn Yang’s feud on the blogosphere recently and to be honest, I’ve expected it.  Both are famous and have a decent loyalist to their blogs.  I am not going to comment on what I think as I don’t want to be famous for flaming them.

Wendy deleted her first post because of some law suit thingy from Dawn and plenty of people didn’t get to read it.  Some hate site did manage to screen capture the post but it was in the form of 10 JPEG files.  So to make life easier for the bloggers who want to screen cap a whole page in one single file, I’ll teach you how to do it.  It might come in handy someday.

Print Screen a whole page

1. You’ll need FireFox.  Download it here.

2. Install FireFox

3. Download FireFox plugin - ScreenGrab!

4. Install ScreenGrab!

5. Go to the page you want to”grab”

6. Right click on the page.

7. Select ScreenGrab!> Save> Complete Page/Frame

8. Select the place to save it.

9. DONE!

Is that easy? So bloggers, do yout thang and ScreeGrab! those controversial stuff.

A sample of XiaXue’s deleted post saved using ScreenGrab! here.

Will be using this entry for my first innit entry as well.

The things I do for my good friends!

Just fetched xiao cha bo and Ken to the Subang airport.  It’s 6.30am right now and I am going to say this again. The things I do for my good friends! Haha…

Anyway, I submitted both my assignments but I am not expecting good results from it.  Results will be revealed next Friday.  So cross your fingers with me ok!

OK, got to sleep now.  I have an event in 7 hours time! Good night or good morning, whatever suits you.
