Irritating Calls...

I bet a lot of people received a call from an 'unknown caller', which appeared at their mobile phone screen, and a female caller will say she called from a company. She will then say you had won thousands of ringgits, house, or even luxurious cars. 

I for one received this kind of so called 'spam call' quite a few times before. The most noticeable is a call from a Chinese national company during first day and first minute of the university life!!! Imagine that when the lecturer was going to start the lecture and suddenly a female caller from "XXX公司" and said that she is promoting some kind of product which I don't care to listen. Then, I straightaway and ask her that where she get my number, which she refused to tell me. After that, I told her that I am busy man and have no time to entertain her. However, the operator was quite persistent. She keep explaining that I might win something luxurious if I bought one of the products. In no time, I just hang up the call and switch off my phone. 

Another same type of call that I received is also occurred during lecture. This time they say I had won a scholarship worth hundreds of thousand in ringgit. This time they SMS me first before try to call me. By the time they try to contact me, I block their calls.

All this while I know about people are trying to scam through calls, but I never thought that I could be one of the target. For where and how they obtain the numbers, I have no idea. I won't be surprise at all if they simply key in the number and try their luck.

Remember, there are not free lunch in the world, we have to work hard for it.

Unpleasant Experience...

I just came have my ear flushed in a private clinic today. This is the second visit in 3 days. Three days ago, I went to consult our family doctor to remove a hardened ear wax in my left ear, after don't know how long the ear wax stick beside my ear wall.

After 3 nights of applying an oily solution to soften the ear wax, the doctor used a high pressure water gun to flush out the ear wax out. Since it was flushed with high pressure water, I felt very uncomfortable. Well, who will be comfortable while a channel of high pressure water was pushing against your ear drum. Soon after that, the world around me are spiraling very fast, just after I opened my eyes a bit. After I recover from my dizziness, the whole flushing process start all over again. After about 10 minutes, all the hardened ear waxes were flushed out. It looked like a mini corn-flake but with black colour appearance, which is disgusting.

Before leaving the clinic, the doctor prescribe an antibiotics ear drop for me as my inner ear wall was inflamed due to the flushing.

What an experience during my birthday. But, I am glad that I do not feel anything stick inside my left ear anymore :)
