heavy!!!

early june,
means another month to pack our bags home!!! yeay!!!

anyway, apart from comparing the price of our flight tickets
people are also busy comparing luggage allowances they can get

*not that we hav so much gift or stuff to bring back for our loved ones
(sorry to disappoint our fellow family n friends in Malaysia) hehe
we need it to bring as much of 'malaysia' to our cosy home as we can in the return flight...heee

but...have u ever wonder why the airline companies limit only 25 kilograms per luggage?

*not because they wanna charge u extra money if you exceed their limits
(though, it is a fair enough reason...hehe)

it is because, they found out that...
many of their workers been suffering lumbar disc prolapse...



*and they have to compensate them for medical treatments n surgeries

the airlines are responsible in one way because,
one of the reasons this happens is when u carry heavy loads in the wrong way
or the load is just tooo heavy!!!
therefore, any luggage above 25 kilos must be labelled 'HEAVY'
so that the airport workers know not to carry that luggage alone..

when the disc between your spine bones prolapses,
it may compresses your spinal cord behind it or your spinal nerves
thus, you may feel constantly...
back pain,
thigh pain,
leg pain,
weakness in your legs,
tingling and numbness in your legs
ED (not constantly though)

kinda difficult to concentrate on work with pain nudging for your attention...
at one point,
it is fair enough for those passengers who brought along extra luggages to contribute for their medical compensation..ryte?

hehe...just a thought~

everybody n everything has their right on us, including our physics...
and we are responsible to fulfill these rights

take care of our body, mental n emotion...
they were created perfect...it is prudent for us to return them in good shape too ryte?
do not overload yourself...
once in a while, take a rest and appreciate the offer of those around you =)


*me talking about going home may not mean i'll go home this year
*a lesson i elaborated from neurosurgery special tutorials
*having friends means we r responsible to keep the friendship last
