I felt like I am swimming upstream against strong current

Since March

Land at last 2012 vacation in Italy

May 7th. 2012

After two years of set back due to my heart condition my wife Yeu Tin and I decided on a week journey on a cruise ship to Rome and France.

Almost two years after my bypass in April of 2009

After the bypass I lost a least 40 pounds and was down 2 inches on the waist line. However in the two years after the bypass I am now back to my size 33 inches waist line and around 180 pounds heavy. Not a good sign for me after buying a lot of pants in the 32 inches waist line. The memory is still a problem because of the 17 minutes cardiac attack I had in September of 2009.

I would love to be able to go back to work and feel useful again but at present situation I am more of a burden for my company and frustrating for me because I am totally useless at my job (more or less a handicap in my office).  I am still seeing a psychology to help improve my mental health and on my own I am working very hard and frustrating on the japanese game call Suduku to see if I could improved myself. Before my problem I was alway very easily solving the evil Suduku in a couple of hours and minutes for the medium and hard. The last hard Suduku I tried is still a long way from a solution if I had not cheated by looking into the solution on the back page. So I am still currently on the easy Suduku that I will complete in under 5 minutes but now take anywhere between 30 minutes to an hours or longer. Yes, I am letting out a frustration yell in my room and there is nothing I can do to improved the situation for now.

I still love photography and every chance I had to be invited to a major function in Mississauga I will be there and the Chair of Canada China Bussiness Communication as well as Chair of SafeCity Mississauga Mr. Victor Oh has been kind enough to alway include me in for his organisation's function. At the same token my friend Mr. Stephen Chu of Mississauga Chinese Business Association alway also invited me to volunteer my photographic service on thier function. It is a good thing that technology has come a long way with photoshop helping me to correct any mistake I make with the photos.

Vegas Trip Feb 2012

                     View from our hotel room from Ceasar in Las Vegas

Its been a while since my wife and I travel to the State due to the restriction from my long term disability. Right now it is more like doing house arrest than a holiday to me with the long term disablility insurance. To make matter worst since my last heart attack, I am left with a bad short term momery problem.

However, the short holiday to the Las Vegas with my wife and family friend Gladys Tay was a helpful relieve from pure boredom in the house arrest. We were fortunate to be provided with free hotel by Ceasar and Planet Hoolywood from our players reward membership at Ceasar.
