The end of an era

Udah beberapa minggu belakangan ini kalo bangun pagi tangan gue rasanya kesemutan mulu n sendi dengkul agak ngilu. Gue suspect asam urat / uric acid tinggi soale dari dulu kalo gue blood check pasti bagian itu deket-deket borderline.

So, after much delay akhirnya pagi ini gue coba cek darah buat periksa asam urat, kolesterol and else. And when the result came ternyata betul asam urat gue tinggi, although gag tinggi-tinggi amat sih. Ternyata yang lebih bikin kaget adalah kadar SGPT / SGOT yang tinggi dan so far setelah do a little research ternyata 2 itu adalah fungsi hati. Oh s***!!!!!

Artinya, soon I 've to see a doctor and check apa gue kena hepatitis or not, really cross my finger on that. Hhmmmm, it seems now I have to go on a diet....the thing I hate the most. But if it's concerning our health than we have no choice. Emang sih, kayaknya gue gag concern about what I eat, gag pernah olah raga lagi semenjak 3 tahun terakhir. Even badan dah kayak kulkas 2 pintu gini juga masih gag nyadar :P

Oh well, better call my doctor soon before anything serious happen. Hopefully by next week dah ketauan deh penyebab tingginya SGPT /SGOT tsb.

What 'tenjewberrymuds' means

To get the full effect, this should be read aloud. You will understand what 'tenjewberrymuds' means by the end of the conversation. This has been nominated for the best email of 2005.

The following is a telephone exchange between a hotel guest and room-service, at a hotel in Asia, which was recorded and published in the Far East Economic Review:
