ok.. i have been wondering about things cos at my workplace, in the toilet, there are like 4 hand dryers per toilet on the office floors and 1 towel paper dispenser.. it seems that im the rare few people who uses the hand dryers instead of the paper towel.. why? cos my reason is, save paper, save the trees.. but come, lets break it down and see which is better actually..

hand dryer (hot type)
ok, basically a fan blower type of device that blows hot air onto your hand to dry the water off.. so you would need electricity for the fan to spin at high speed and the heat comes from the resistance type of heater also powered by electricity to heat up that same air.. takes about 30-45 sec to get a nearly dry hands? at times, some dryer are not adjusted correctly, so its either not warm enough or its too hot.. then you need power for the hand sensor too..so, in general, that's alot of electricity for 30-45 sec of use.. but of course, once its not running, only sensor is powered and the fan and heater wont drain any electric..no paper is used and that saves trees.

hand dryer (cold type)
ok its base on the same principle as the hot type but its cold.. no heater at all and its design slightly different where the dryer are usually bigger and taller and placed on the floor..it blows very fast cold air over your hands and thus the fan uses electricity.. no heater, so that saves up on power.. but there are lights on some of them and that adds to electricity but its only activated when its blowing.. and of course, there is the hand sensor too.. usually it takes about 30 sec max to get a dry hand and it does feel good cos its not hot and you wont get burnt.. also no paper, so save the trees.

paper towel
the machine dispenses paper towel using a hand sensor, the longer you hold your hand there, the more paper it rolls out.. sensor needs power and the motor that rolls out the paper needs power.. and of course, it uses paper and that requires trees.. usually you need about 3-4 sec worth of rolling out to dry your hands and that is about 40-50 cm in length worth of paper? qn is, are those paper recycled? i dont know..

ok let say, the papers dont get recycled.. then i go for the cold type dryer.. the best environmentally friendly.. to make papers isnt easy, require alot of power, water and cutting down lots of trees.. though the fan uses electricity, its only temporary and its not as bad as the hot one =P

however, if the papers do get recycle, then best is the paper towel.. uses the minimum amt of power and if the paper are recycled and it uses recycled paper towel, then wow, that's even better :D but of course, all of these are base on rough facts and no solid concrete figures.. but generally i think its about there. so DO YOUR PART PEOPLE! SAVE THE WORLD !!!

song goes to mr terminator whose heart was broken =)

The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away
You know you done me wrong baby
And you'll be sorry someday

The thrill is gone
It's gone away from me
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away from me
Although I'll still live on
But so lonely I'll be

The thrill is gone
It's gone away for good
Oh, the thrill is gone baby
Baby its gone away for good
Someday I know I'll be over it all baby
Just like I know a man should

You know I'm free, free now baby
I'm free from your spell
I'm free, free now
I'm free from your spell
And now that it's over
All I can do is wish you well

i think i have talked about this before.. about how people just dont have any basic respect for one another with regards to returning back a call or sms.. yeah i figured they are just so busy making money every 5 minute that the moment they stop whatever they are doing for just 1 sec, they make a USD 5000 lost in revenue.. im sorry.. go make your money ok?? i totally give up on this species..

look, personally, between me and everybody else reading this, i dont expect much.. i totally understand some people are just so busy that they forgot to get back to a certain someone with regards to someone.. but i believe THERE IS A LIMIT TO IT.. i mean, would you forget to get back to your boss if he/she calls you or look for you??

i dont expect a 1 hr conversation.. just like a min max?? hello hi? how are you? am i that transparent to you sort you know?? but yeah, if you didnt know, i cant even get that.. i guess, its too much to ask from some people.. people may argue, who am i to expect anything from them right?? well urmm, this isnt a stranger or some stalker.. this is friend to friend.. and like come mon, it isnt hard to return back a msg or call right?

never mind, forget it, i officially give up.

im no longer built like i used to be.. living life with max 5 hrs sleep, people's problems, tonnes of paper work, the hot sun, sucky food and yet i still manage to trot on.. hahaha now, i find it hard to even be on time by 7 am at jurong east.. argh! either school has spoiled me of my freedom of life or or 1 mth worth of holiday was already enough to corrupt me to a point that is hard to fix.

hmmm, maybe give me another week or so and i get use to the jurong island life.. new things are never easy cos you got to adapt to the bigger picture and system so as to fit in nicely.. fortunately for me, i have chem eng background back in poly so yeah, not so bad ;) most of the things doesnt sound or look or feel foreign.. but i got to admit, after 2 years army and then 1 year of mat science, i got a tat rusty.. hahaha

you wait and see! i will try to be the playmaker of my work place.. hahaha ok, i need my sleep, night!

Heart inspire

Have you ever feel the sinking feeling
No matter how much you’re struggling
Breathless and tired, body heaving
As you are leaving
It’s all you babe, I’m broken
It’s all because of you, the words unspoken
Hope that will never come
Fear that is always around
Hearts are dread and feelings go dead
Tormenting me as time goes by
Come and go, go and come by
Confuse as it seems maybe
The answer looks clear to me
Perhaps denial got the best of me
Never really wanting to give in
The hope and struggle just keeps coming in
There is no need to come to me
Or be with me
Just say the things Im hoping to see
Careless whispers, soft mumbling lips
Tell me, lie to me, hate me, love me
I just need that spark
That bit of fire or any small desire
Complete me and let the heart inspire

is it wrong to be choosy? is it cos that individual is spoilt? too sheltered? never had a taste of the real life where options at times isnt an option? perhaps.. though i see no issue in being choosy.. i think its human nature to be choosy at things, certain things and for some people, at everything.. its all about wanting the best, wanting the want and wanting the need..

you want the best deals, you want the best offer, best prices, best quality, best best best.. or you want a blonde, 34-28-36, 1.7m, mixed portugese+chinese+indian and nothing else.. (that was randomly generated, it doesnt reflect what i want =P) or you want something with highest mileage with higher power torque speed and cheap??

people always tell me, the reason why im like this is cos im just choosy with people.. and they fault me for that, and they in some sense implied or how i see it as blaming me for it.. i mean, why can others be choosy about things and i cant? perhaps its a different level of choosiness and all but the same principle still apply right??

so please, let me have my moment of choosing, picking, let it be my food, my cpu fan, my bike, my shirt, my boots, my girl ;) or whatever lah.. =) in time, sooner or later, a choice will be made :D
