I was in Kuantan for the past two days. In short, this is a place where i wouldn't want to be. Very thankful that i am located/based far away from that place. Very last minute notice, rushing like mad just to get everything in order. I myself have not receive much training on the machine but we have to just figure out how it works and get the machine up and going. Good news is that everything went on smoothly :D
Okay, Started at ridiculous hour, 5 am in the morning i have to wake up and get myself prepared and pack everything waiting for transport to the airport. We have to pick up a colleague coming from Sg. arriving at 7.05 am in the morning. In the end, we was told that TigerAirways arrived 10 minutes ahead of schedule time, and he waited for 40 minutes. Heading straight to Kuantan. 3-4 hour journey. I was so excited when we pass by the toll house that lead us to Genting Highland. This is where my plan comes about. I was telling myself, OMG i must go Genting tomorrow. What is so exciting there? Just because they have sign up a card for me, and was told that if i manage to collect one point within one month, i will be able to change it to the permanent card. Wtf, First thing in my mind i was thinking, How much i need to spend before i could actually gain that 1 point. looking at the machine the point grow by 0.01 with every Rm 5 bet. Ok thats noob. This is machine operated. If i were to place the card on the table, it will go by time. Tick Tock...... The good news is that, when i sign up for this new card, I won RM 20 :D Enough for my petrol and supper. ( Its part of their strategy, don't get trapped )
Ok, the topic for this entry is suppose to be Kuantan trip.. Genting shouldn't be in the discussion topic.
Along the highway, i have no idea why my bladder just filled up really fast. I did not drink liters of water. Damn, one R&R to another will takes more than 15 minutes. At this point of time, 1 minutes seems to be like an hour. I remember my cousin once told me " She was with my little cousin, 6 years old, taking a bus ride back to my hometown, Lumut. In the bus, that little cousin was holding a bottle of water and the next moment he is struggling to finish up the bottle of water, and my cousin asked him ' You very thirsty?' , Guess what he answered? , I need the bottle so that i can pee!!!" Hahahahahahahaha..... I have the thought of doing the same thing but unfortunately it will be very embarrasing. Thus, shouting for the next R&R. I couldn't stand straight when we arrive at the R&R. Huh.....
3 Hours later we arrive at Kuantan.
Kryptor Compact The first mission is to move this machine from the institution to the nearby hospital under the same institution. It is quite a distance away. I am surprise that the whole machine can be dismantle and placed into the -Waja-. The best is we will be able to get the machine up and going without any prior experience or training :D Of course we struggle alot reading up the 200 pages of manual and follow each and every step. Heheheh
Having done that we proceed to our hotel and check in, at about 5 pm. We made phone booking and was told the price o be at RM 207. When we arrive at the hotel, we was told the price to be at RM 240. Big fuss. Unsatisfactory. Argument. Nasty. Dramatic. U name it they have it. :D
Vistana Hotel Entrance to Lobby.Sorry forget to take picture of the lobby. ahaha.
View from our room. Vistana.
Vistana Hotel, Swimming PoolAfter the quarrel, asking for manager and person in charge and all sort kind of shit. We manage to get the room, i suppose at lower rate, for a night. Considering Kuantan, this hotel definitely has its standard for at least 4 star? ( Lobby, Swimming pool, Breakfast, and Good Service?) I have no idea how they rank the hotels with stars? From my impression if the hotel has a casino, an additonal star will be given. So i assume with all this facilities the star is given accordingly. Hmm.... One utama have a tennis court and a ball room. That's why it is rank with 5 or 6 star?
Sofa bed for me :( This is suppose to be the chair. Unfortunately, we have 3 person in total. And the other two big size one slept on the king size bed. God Damn IT!!
We just took a quick shower and head back to the place where the machine is being placed. Huh. Goota work OT to get the machine up. So much of work need to be done. We got the pass to stay up till 11 am. The place is really freaky.
The institution is just located opposite Kuantan Parade.
Everytime i pass by this dummies i i can feel the adrenalin rush from the heart to the brain. Luckily i survived that night. I almost got heart attack running around the rooms of dummies. By the way that dummie looks like having constipation.
This is the pelvic bone and the skull of the baby. It is very interesting to see how to bone expand that enable the baby to be squeezed out of the stomach.. Hahahaha. Together with my colleague that just upgraded became a father 1 month ago. He explained to me how does the baby actually came about. Hehe. Painful experience.
Poop. Thats how the baby head comes about. To have a clearer picture of what is happening, the picture below will explain how does baby come into this world. I was told that the doctor will use a vacumm to hold the baby head while the mother pushes the baby out of the cervix.
One question arise. What if the body remain inside while the head is detached during the procedure? OMG. I was told it might happen. And because they use vacumm, the baby head will turn oval like egg shape. Hahahahah. Very interesting dummy room.
This is where our dear friend wanted to try out the electromagnetic pad. You know those two handle that doctor use as a last resolution for heart hailure patient. It is attached to the electrical source and powered on. He almost put it to his own chest to test the power. Luckily its not that comical. He didn't lie on the floor Phew~~ Oh i just found out that it is called defibrilator.
This dummy simulating adult chocking. The sponge ball is suppose to be stuffed inside the mouth. Honestly, the picture looks more like constipation. I was alone roaming around playing with the dummy, once again i got shock of my life when i was trying to pull the string out from the mouth. The sponge fell down and i thought the head is going to fall off also. Therefore, i lay my hand out hoping i will be able to catch the head before it reaches the floor.. Hahahahahaha. So jakun.
Cough Cough. 
This is the worst room that I will have to come across. During night time, they switched off all the light. This is the room that we have to pass by in order to get the reagent and kits from the fridge. WTF! The Staff Nurse even recommend that we can just save our one night hotel stay and accompany this dummy for the night. 3 bed just nice for us. Geezzz..
We end the day at 11 Pm.
Next morning, taking random shots at Kuantan town.
Before that we have free breakfast for two person, so we quickly get ready and head down to the cafeteria for our breakfast. I have to make my own porridge, my own salad, and my own Coffee :D
Hotel Cafeteria
Plain Simple Porridge
SaladHeading back to the institution to continue with our work....................
This looks very similar to Malacca town.
This is the reason why i said " This is the place where i wouldn't want to be! " If i have a choice. Even if i have no choice also, this is not the place i will be staying for long term.We have accomplish our mission within that short period of time. Bad news is that we goota rush back to the airport for 10.15 pm flight. Departing at 5.30 pm from Kuantan. Every minutes count. With the speed of 150 km per hour. We manage to get to the airport just 15 minutes before the bording time. (Its not check in time) Luckily the gate is still open. :D
