alienxp03 — Fri, 24 Nov 2017 22:25:58 +0800

Post stomach surgery: Hernia?

alienxp03 — Wed, 06 Sep 2017 01:48:26 +0800

I just had a surgery around 3 weeks ago. I noticed some bulge on my stomach abs. I'm not so sure, but could this be a hernia?

If it is, what kind of doctor should I be looking for to diagnose or to treat it?

It's only been 3 weeks, so I understand that it might be too early? But I really don't know, so I figured no harm asking

(If needed I can upload my stomach picture here)

Recovery time for ileocolic intussusception

alienxp03 — Sun, 27 Aug 2017 01:20:13 +0800

I just had a surgery for ileocolic intussusception. All I know is it's a bit rare to find this condition in adults. So Google doesn't help much.

Does anyone know anyone who had the same condition too? I'm just wondering if there's any good info about the recovery process. The food, bowel movement, and physical activities.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Swimming lesson

alienxp03 — Thu, 18 May 2017 04:27:35 +0800

I'm looking for a swimming lesson class. Either private or group classes is ok. I have no experience at all. I'm staying in Seri Kembangan, but anywhere in Klang Valley is fine by me. Can anyone recommend someone or any website that I can refer to?

Recently did went to a local website and made some arrangement, but was utterly disappointed with their management. Keep cancelling and reschedule my classes for almost 2 months. So now I feel like giving it a try again

Stronglift 5x5: Weak upper body?

alienxp03 — Fri, 25 Nov 2016 03:13:34 +0800

I've started lifting regularly since almost 2 years ago. Then decided to try out Stronglift 5x5 and just started around August. So roughly, it's been almost 3 months now. And I guess I'm still way too early to complain or anything. Anyway, not complaining. Just seeking some advice here

I feel like my upper body is way weaker than my lower body, so are there any advice for that? Whether it's nornal, or anything that I missed or can be improved? Or I'm just over thinking? I'm still new, so some insight would be helpful.

I'll just continue the routine anyway since it's only been like 3 months anyway. But if any of you guys have been following SL too, how long did you guys chose to stick with it?

Here my details:

Height: 164cm
Weight: 70kg

Current progress:

Squat: 127.5kg
OH Press: 40kg
Deadlift: 120kg
Bench Press: 72.5kg
Row: 70kg

Ps: currently have to deload on deadlift since I've already failed for 3 times

Suggestion for motorcycle >500cc

alienxp03 — Sun, 02 Oct 2016 23:32:13 +0800

I'm not really into bike or cars, so I don't really know where should I go for this. But currently I'm looking for a superbike with a monthly payment from 600-800 per month. Not sure if it's enough, but hopefully less than RM1k/month.

Also, I only have license B2 right now, not yet B full. So do I need to get a B full license first before I can buy and ride a >500cc bike?

I really don't know much about bike, so any comments/suggestions are greatly appreciated

Budget wise: RM600-800 per month. Or ~RM50k cash.
Usage: Go to work, 20-30km/day. Weekend, KL-Melaka. Sometimes KL-Kedah.
Preferences so far: ER6, Z800

alienxp03 — Tue, 29 Mar 2016 01:54:22 +0800

Zeva Residence

alienxp03 — Fri, 25 Mar 2016 11:04:21 +0800

I'm moving to Zeva Residence. But it seems like Unifi/Maxis Fiber/Time doesn't support that condo just yet. And I need internet. Is there any other services that I could use? Broadband got quota, but seems like broadband is the only choice available?

Anyone lives there too? Can give me some advice?

Black beans

alienxp03 — Tue, 17 Nov 2015 11:24:38 +0800

I want to play my violin, but the sounds is a bit too high. And since I'm not living alone, it's going to be troublesome for others. I'm thinking to make my room soundproof. Anyone had any experience with building a soundproof room? Would love to get some insight on how did you guys do it

Is there any good iPhone 6s protective case that's under RM200? I'm thinking to go for Lifeproof, but it seems like it's almost RM300. Might be too much for me..

I'm from Melaka, and thinking to buy a violin. There's a few store I've been to, and got two model that I think quite cheap for me. I'm interested in model M100 (not sure which brand is this) and my second choice is Stagg Violin VN-3/4. Can anyone give some review about these models? Or perhaps you guys have any other recommendation?

Which bike to buy?

I'm planning to buy a bike.
But now confused between these two choices. Either XTM MLE 200 or Nimota CK9.
Mostly I'm gonna use it for daily use. Maybe few times in a month go Melaka-KL.
