Poor Old Man

My old man is hospitalized due to 膽結石, and an operation is performed today to remove the 膽囊 and the stones remained inside.

Apparently the main cause of 膽結石 is due to fatty food. Yes, fat food, which my dad loves. The symptom gets worse with age, and just happened that over the last few days, the 膽囊 just gave up completely.

I went to visit my old man at the hospital today. He was in a coma for most of the day due to the anesthetic. After waking up his spirit looked high. He was a little upset when he learned that he might not be able to eat all the foods he loves, but then again, what’s more important, the food, or his health? The choice then seemed more simple and obvious.

Poor old man. Just a few days ago he was happy chewing on 鹽酥雞, looks like he needs to start learning to chew on carrot and celery now.

Dominated

Rafael Nadal absolutely killed Roger Federer yesterday at the French Open Final. It was the most dominating performance in a long time and it was certainly something most people did not expect.

6-1, 6-3, 6-0

I cannot even really the last time Roger lost in three straight sets, not to mention he lost 6-0.

Did he play on wheelchairs? From the scoreline, he probably played using his left hand.

Then again, maybe it is time for Roger to admit that Rafael is the better player on clay and maybe Rafael might give him a chance the next time they meet.

Wimbledon is also coming at the end of this month. Obviously wish Nadal the best of luck in Wimbledon as Federer has failed to use his in Roland Garros.

Wedding

Not mine, but my cousin Howard’s wedding.

It was a good gathering meeting a lot of the relatives which I hadn’t met (or spoken) in a long time. In fact, I didn’t even know most of their names. How embarrassing.

The bad news is, I am still eating like there is no tomorrow. My weight is back up again. My diet plan is not helping.

I have photo day next Saturday. I will cut down eating completely this week.
