Ahfook’s Story

Since my first blood donation at 1998, today I had my 8th blood donation, at Wisma Central. At my last donation, I just donated 300ml due to lack of sleep. This time I was well prepared, slept for 7.5 hours and had my breakfast. During signing up, I’ve reliazed that I have gain weight until 64kg. I was always less than 60kg in the past. I still look sli actually… just my tummy is getting bigger.

450ml of blood was transfered successfully. They seems have new procedure, they placed the blood below my hand before they cutting the cord. So I did feel the warmth of my blood.

There was food prepared for blood donors as little reward. A pack of sugar cane, a red bean bun, a pack of biscuits, a cup of warm Milo, with 2 little pils. They were my lunch.

It’s been long time since last Beyond fans gathering at Oct 2005 when Beyond had their last concert over there, and I seldom attend to gatherings since I was a father. Finally we had a little gathering yesterday since our big sister Amelia able to come far from Johor Baru and Angie back from Singapore to join us. There were 10 of us joined the gathering, which the number was lesser than I thaught, due to sudden heavy rain and other reasons. However we still had our good crazy time.

We had light dinner and met up at Leisure Mall’s Wong Kok restaurant before we heading to Neway karaoke that just located at opposite. This is the first time I went to karaoke with 99% of songs we selected were Beyond’s songs in 4 hours.

Since most of the songs are rock songs, we had lot’s of shouting, lot’s of head banging, lot’s of paparazzi photo snapping, little of moshing and some silly stunts too. It was like a little Beyond concert as we cheered and clapped along

The ‘little Beyond concert’ was ended at 12am, when Meriam Yeung reminded us time was up and leave without leaving any valueable stuffs behind The gathering was continued with drinking session at mamak stall until 2am.

It was a real fun gathering that I’ve really missed for so long. Too bad Rachel’s grandmother was admitted to hospital and Rachel needed to take care of her, else the gahering would be more better
