Theobroma Chocolate Lounge

What's more you can ask for when you're totally stress up in University life?
Yep, I went to the hospital in the morning and ran away to Pavilion in the afternoon

What's the first stop?
Some anti-oxidants for sure, CHOCOLATE!

Theobroma Chocolate Lounge, Pavilion


Left : Fair Lady Frappe (Belgian milk chocolate frappe)
Right : Miss Coco Frappe (Belgian chocolate frappe)
Both RM12.90

The chocolate taste is just so nice and not too sweet
Very lovely and non-sticky!
Can drink it all day without feeling guilty at all


Herb Marinated Roasted Chicken
(Served with baby potatoes, salad and black pepper mushroom sauce)
RM18.90

This is just so-so for me
The herb taste is not strong and it does not absorb into the chicken meat
It does not suit the word "marinated" 
I can't taste the black pepper sauce actually
The small potatoes and mushroom are not bad
Overall, this is a very disappointing dish for my lunch
Not very satisfied after the lunch even though I was full after that


Other dishes in Theobroma Chocolate Lounge

Here are some of the dishes I tried previously

Mushroom and Chicken Quiche
RM9.90
This was good but the portion is so small
It is just nice for tea time

Mushroom Soup with bread
This is not the BEST mushroom soup I had
But still satisfying


Shepherd's Pie
RM9.90

It is beef inside and it tastes good!
But somehow I still love the one in Delicious


Dessert
Chocolate Affairs
RM25.90

Had this during my cousins' birthday
It was recommended for 2 people
But I think it can be shared with more people
I really recommend this when hanging with friends for dessert
The best combination is orange and chocolate, which is new and unique for me


Had a Bad Fringe Day!

4th posting


Officially step into the 4th posting, Surgery!
In Team Hepatobiliary
Under Mr Christopher Ho as my immediate supervisor

I'm kind of worried right now
I didn't know what I should I do when there is no teaching by my team supervisors
So lost!

I do.

Inventing My Own iPad Application for Maxis

Maxis contest participant badge
Creativity has never really been my forte all this while. But I did have a lot of training by really trying to build the sand castle in the air a.k.a daydreaming. 

I have always love to look through Apps and somehow even try to criticize them for being not very useful and non applicable. But I have never think of anything to make them better, just love the critics job.

Before proceeding my iPad idea, I have something to confess. I am a photoshop-dumb person. I have no idea how they work and my art creativity is zero. All I can do to present my idea is to sketch an empty iPad screen with a few words in it. 

Here we go!


There was this one time I heard somebody was to invent a chip that was part of our identity card (IC) that can store everything about each person's medical records. I love that idea because it is convenient for the patients as well as the doctors.

Until today, all the records in the hospital is recorded in papers and computers. BUT, the records they have are those who usually visit that hospital only and they have to make another new records file for the new patient such as those referred from the other hospitals or patients that came in for emergency. This will only lead to more workload to the workers.

I suggest to have an Apps called iMedicine to store particulars and medical records of each person in details. No matter which hospital or clinic they go, iMedicine can help the doctor to trace the patient's previous record which was much more easier. This is not to make a doctor lazy, but to save more time with more precise details they can gather.

iMedicine does not only serves everyone with iPad but hospitals can start using iPad with the iMedicine to trace patients that has never get any treatment in that particular hospital before, such as emergency patients.


How iMedicine works?

Emergency number will be placed at the start of the Apps for convenience. How many of us know the number to call when there is an emergency? Take examples such as home accidents, someone has a sudden heart attack or seizure.

Before one can go into the particulars and details, password is needed because this is private and confidential to the person. Doctors that need to view this will have to key in their verified ID numbers.

This is basically how the particulars will look like. Can be better, actually. 



Why is the history of the patient is important?
The history is the most important part of giving a doctor an idea in getting a differential diagnosis for a patient. I have seen a lot of cases where history was taken in a mess because :

- The patient might be unconscious or confuse
- The patient has no family members with him/her
- Elderly patient that can't remember important details
- Language barrier
- Too ill to talk
- And a lot more...

With iMedicine, it can help the doctor to go through the history of the patient as well as the last treatment given. In emergency situation, a patient can be given the most suitable and effective management on the spot and this can reduce the risks of getting into a more complicated conditions. 

Examples, motor vehicle accident victim that need an immediate blood transfusion, particulars that stored in iMedicine can be used to trace the blood type and Rhesus of the patient. Another important aspect is to know the allergy status of a patient. Some may be allergy to certain drugs that all health workers need to be alert of. 

People with Addison's disease will carry with them a card or a tag to help the health care workers to identify them when they collapsed. This is due to the different management that should be given to them compared to other people that collapsed without Addison's disease. This information can be traced in iMedicine as well in case the tags or cards are forgotten.

Not only for Addison's disease, it applies to a lot more such as seizures that happened without a witness or family members.

I hope iMedicine can help reduce the burden of the health care workers that need to take care of a lot of people in the hospitals or clinics with different identities without a mistake. This Apps might help to save more time in working but at the same time the works are productive and effective. This can help everyone to have only one thorough system to store all their details that can be connected to all health centers in Malaysia. If iMedicine has the chance to be invented, I hope this can be spread outside Malaysia when people seek treatment in the other places. This benefits the people as well, as it will help them to understand more about their conditions and what medications they are given. Besides, it can help those that do not remember their history and medications.

Last but not least, this is environment friendly. No papers are needed, no chopping off trees!


GREAT NEWS!

Blues

Back to KL in 8 hours!
Damn it, I'm so lazy

Define honeymoon, dear...

Wow, another year just pass by
Seriously the tong tong chiang is somehow going to make my mind and soul so jealous and hungry for it

It is only Sunday, but I can smell the blues of Monday already


Life target on Monday : Be positive and get through the post-break syndrome!

Simple

Until the end, I just pick something simple as my layout. Kind of tired of scrolling down and clicking in different free blogger layout websites. I guess simple is cool at this generation huh? For the first time my blog is not so pink, not so purple, not so flowery..


One thing I still don't understand : 
Why they double my blog post? I set it to 8 posts per page, then it turn out 2 times 8 posts that repeat all over again
=.="

Put that aside, I was actually quite upset and disappointed with the responds given by fellow Malaysians regarding the #tanyanajib that was held from 4.30pm to 6pm in Twitter yesterday. Initially when it just started, I thought this was a great idea for Malaysians to speak out and get everything back to the right track as our Prime Minister was able to answer what has been a question mark to us. Somehow, some took the opportunity to criticizes irrelevant topics, which I don't have to mention here. Read it up in malaysiakini :  http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/153140


Can I advertise my Twitter for a second?
(lol, ambil kesempatan!)

If you guys own Twitter, you can follow me @qiwenism

One Step Closer to the Maxis Om Nom Nom Race

I want to be in The Maxis Om Nom Nom Race, badly!

Why I would love to be part of this race?
Good question!
Because I have been dreaming about it.
I want it so bad that I dream of it almost every night...

Let me express my dream using old school drawing style


 Self introduction
Hi, I'm Qi Wen a.k.a Eli


Being a Maxis Angel, I'm lucky
Because Maxis Angel is given top priority in this race


This is how my dream starts


I can see myself running towards food right now
Can't wait to be served, take a picture, eat it and blog about it!

Don't believe?
Click on Food at the top near my blog header
You'll be introduced and recommended all about food (mostly KL areas)


This is all the food that I had tried and blog about so far
Still have a lot that doesn't fit in here
All you need to know is that I love Food, I love Blogging & I have been Maxis-er since I had my first mobile phone!


Did I tell you that we get to use iPhone 4, the Finder301 Application and Wireless Broadband throughout the race?

Yes, you didn't see this wrong!

Maxis Finder301 Application is a 
location-based app provides you with information on food, restaurants, ATMs, banks, clinic, police stations more around you! 
If you are a foodie (like me!),  Finder301 has the LARGEST food listings in Malaysia (mouth wide open with amazement!) and it'll help you find great food around you. 
No worries about phone numbers, addresses, food reviews and map to get there!



SIGN UP to be a FINDER301 contributor and you'll be able to share your comments on the food places you have been. Check it out here : http://itunes.apple.com/my/app/maxis-finder301/id375530216?mt=8#

Other than that, we will be given Maxis Wireless Broadband during the race as well!



Before thinking of winning, I did run through a scan on myself in my dreamland to double confirm I am eligible to be in the race
Even though I have an 'S' size (yeah, my T-shirt size) body, small head, not-tall-at-all height, I still have lots of space in my tummy to fill all those FOOD.. *Bring it on!*
What's more important than the stomach now?
The center of creativity - The Brain
I guess this is what Nuffnang wants before I can head to the race...



Other than Food, the grand prize did attract me to make this blog even more interesting

3D2N trip to Hong Kong with 5-star accommodation worth RM 10,000 PLUS HTC Desire Z (1 per winning member!)

 *I see my team on the flight now*


For now, it is all a DREAM
Nuffnang, can you be my Fairy Godmother this time? 

Time for team introduction!

This is my team for The Maxis Om Nom Nom Race!

Food Hunter Roar!
*I think I need a better introduction*
*scroll down please*
 They are the reason why I want to be in the race as well!
Meeting new people in my life

The random people I team up for the race!
My team consist of myself (Eli), Doris, Melissa and Ching Yih!

*You can click on their name and you will be directed to their talented world - their blog*

The team slogan :
We Eat & Roar To The Top!



What inspires me so badly that I want to be part of the race?
