wow,hey,you still coming down for the penang brigde marathon?

indeed sexy back!

Where are the pics of your trip...can't wait for more updates..

gosh that surely hurt like hell!
but if it's effeective then it should be worth it.
how much does it cost?
and what did they actually do??? o.O"

invest in 500mg Vit C for immunity, son

Yea. It hurts quite badly because its like sucking your skin. And you've got a pretty sexy back there. =P

Dude you have gymmed too much. Do more cardio or you'd look bulkily fat. Trust me, that's yuck.

The "firecupping" is painful. Ooh. When they remove those firecups, the popping sound isn't the nicest either.

neh. u look like ur run over by a cargo truck or smth =D but i gotta say, u one brave dude to try tat out. HAHA

My goodness gracious! Holy crap! Ouch..ouch. I got goosebumps when I saw that pick ("Merinding" is how we call in Indonesian). Sh*te!

I'm soo sorry to hear that you got sick after Jakarta - you should have known better my dear! Wish you had someone to take you around in Jakarta (like me or my friends!) and we would take you to these clean hawker style foodstalls..

I am still trying to imagine how YOU travelled by yourself in Jakarta..!Unbelieavable! hehe. Very adventurous.

Cant wait for further review on jakarta, Kenny! Did you go to X2?

does ur butt hurt after that?

those cups really help. perhaps if u try another method which they use either spoon or something else to scrub ur back, that one i tell you. you will be cursing for the whole process and crying like a baby...

looks like an emerging fashion trend u got going there~ lol~

damn, i bet that hurts a lot!

LOL, food in indo, you've just gotta get used to em.

most of the time hawkers along streets are far better than any food money can buy!

so for everything good, there's a price to pay =)

Sexy and Hot back

ouch.

looks painful but it doesnt hurt lah. essentially the same as a hickey cept its not as fun. but cmon sucking toxins out of the body?! better tell ur readers to stop giving lovebites then cos theyll be poisoned

Shouldn't you have gone to the doctor in the first place? That aside, now you have some kinda sexy back which may be of sexual appeal to octopus. =)

Get well soon, and good luck in your marathon.

"Dude you have gymmed too much. Do more cardio or you'd look bulkily fat. Trust me, that's yuck."

dude, trust Qi. i like ur v-shaped back, juz not the layer of fat covering it...

hot-cupping sounds like smtg i would avoid

OMG, it goes all the way down into your pants.

Let's observe a moment of silence for KennySia's butthole virginity, cruelly lost to the ravages of a 'giant freaking octopus'

*shrieks*

Why do u have to go for fire cupping? It can heal by itself.

err. but u look like you're raped by a giant octopus. no joke.

erm... reminds me when I got food poisoning in Jakarta last time. Almost the all the international employees who sent there for training got sick (all locals were fine -___-b). Should try one of their fruit (can't remember the name), it smells like shit, looks like shit (very dark and lumpy hard skin), but taste pretty good (milky white flesh like rambutan). According to the locals, it helps to cure diarrhoea and serious stomach discomfort.

i think you kena birdflu

Geez.. Kenny... you are chubby,eh? Ahahaha

that is so cute ?

do they serve takoyaki with that ?

omG.. your back!!!

anyways, am sure u'll feel better after that :)

Hey Kenny,

Didn't know that you were into that kind of kinky stuff. Looked like you were attacked by a pack of teenagers and left you with all that hickies! Speaking of sucking, just got back from Guadalarajara Mexico and it plain sucks for a 10M city. Prefer Kuching any day. Get well soon.

"cupping" is the traditional way to "suck the toxins out from the body". It's quite popular among malay society too. Feel better after the "sucking"?

Kenny Kenny, you should go do the back rubbing *ahem* I mean back screcthing with the spoon oohhhhh yeah , cuz if you think the fire cuppling was bad, you would weep like a baby when you do the back screatching, seriously they do it with a spoon and it hurst like hell, then burns like hell afterwards, then you will bruse for 1 whole week, so since the therapist didnt suggest that you should be thankful ^^, but the methods work thogh, even though it hurts its actually effective....

kenny , i wish u get well soon. Take care.

Ur back . U more look like u kena run by car over u . It is more look like roda kereta :P lol

Did the scraping thing down my back once. And I mean once.

My aunt scraped a piece of wood down my back and I screamed and refused to let them touch me again.

Heal in a few days also. No need one lar.

There is a lot unhealthy place in Jakarta..... lol... I live there...

hmm... what a coincident, having the same posting on the same day. tried in KL. similar feeling, similar blog posting. :) the only difference is i had more toxin than you. :P

Ewww....
I saw a man topless with those marks on his back once, and I was thinking "What kind of skin disease is this?"

I actually like fire cupping but the KUASAH!! ouch!

i do this for my mum also..suppose to let the "air" out.. similarily u cld use a saucer to scrub your neck & back..

lol can't believe you did not know what fire cupping was ;p

hey, u mite not like tat fire cupping thing, but it's actly quite useful... when i came bek home everyyear from nz, i did tat to "take" away the heatiness in d body...

get well soon!
and dun visit the beach without ur top on for a week! u'll scare gals off... hahahaha

Wow dude... looks ugly!.. well, does it work? do you feel better?

I bet the mark stay for weeks!! hahaha.. stay away from the beach.. or any place that requires you to be topless! YOu might found people running for their life! as you open your shirt. hehehe..

Why did you go to that place anyway? But as for me, Indonesia, I am get used to it already. So I will not get sick easily because of the unhygenic food. Hehe. If you are going to Indonesia again, please do tell me so I will take you to the not-that-unhygenic place to eat =p
Sorry to say that you cannot gurantee the food you eat in Indonesia is 100% clean and hygenic (unless you go to the fancy restaurant or something)...

I am running away if they ever say fire cupping ... wow must have hurt .

Fire cupping is fun!!! I enjoyed it a lot! And yea, I was the one putting the cup on peoples' back of cause :p

This is call "ba guan" in chinese. =) it works, i always do it when i sick.
o.O u got hit by Davy Jones pet, Kraken. Tat's the scar.. =X joke! haha!! =D

Yup, she did some cupping alright. And she played with fire on you. Good thing you were spared below the waist. Or were there some cool cupping down there too?

Don't tell.

kenny got "ngentot" by an octopus! woohooo!

ya this is one of the ways to pull out the toxin from the body, not so pain, i tried b4...

You do look like you had a fight with a giant octopus.

Next round if want good food go Restoran Sederhana, Masakan Padang. Their "cumi"(sotong) is very yummy.

Another is Mamink Daeng Tata(Tata'ribs & Konro). It's actually BBQ ribs.

Avoid a restaurant named "Suharti" at Jln Wahid Hasyim. Lousy food and price...they slaughter you like nobody's business!

humm.. u should not go for the street food. One of my workmates who went down to Jakarta with me try the foods beside the road and fall sick. We need to send in back to KL for medical treatment. :)

By the way, did the firecupping work? You feel any better after that?

If you have a video recording of the whole session..that would be GREAT...
that will definitely scaring the hell out of us and render firecupping obselete...hihi

the truth is out, Kenny Sia is the direct descendant of the Kraken in Pirates of the Carribean.... ;)

hey kenny you remind me of Dr Oct with his tentacles pulled out man haha.

Kenny,

Most importantly do you feel better after the sucking :)

ugh, the cup marks are just gross!

that's pretty bullshit about toxin in the body..

You've been conned Kenny

o... my mom do that b4, n she say it was great after doing that. not very sure about that. kenny, u have to go more gym, the shape n line is coming out liao~

poor kenny... dear dear me.. you're 'kepanasan'.. drink more water and rest more.. that should do you good...

**agrees with the titles...

>.

u're definately being raped by a giant octupos,hahaha...(man,i'm so evil,hahahahahaha)

Even BF gets diarrhoea every time he goes back to Jakarta. Haha.. The food there's really not for pampered bodies.

I'm sorry... but it's damn funny. Lol

it looks like you got attacked by Davy Jones from POTC 3. LOL.

poor kenny...but HEY...i heard it helps with flu and colds and all that

you got raped by Davey Jones. Oh yeah, lotsa tentacle p0rn there.

omg! ur body is really heaty..
i heard that the more 'heaty' ur body is the 'reder' e markings will be! and urs is really red!

take care=)

ooh.... love bites!

Hey Kenny, is that a G-string you're wearing?

it looks so horrible. hope u get well soon

i swear to god, i hav ntg to do wit it. lol

you beat justin timberlake!!
haha...

fire cupping.... my mom and dad did them a few years back. was it last year or the year before that Gwynneth Paltrow was caught on film (camera) with those scars on her back and people were saying she was doing some black magic crap?

The therapist did this to u all by herself!
Is she still alive? LOL

Damn that looks painful. My mother did it a few years ago and passed out from blood loss during the procedure. The scars can still be seen if you look closely. Good luck for your recovery! :D

Jeebus. Those are some hugeass lovebites.

OH MY GOD!!!
Well, your pose looks like a dai lou...after raped by the qiant octopus! cool~

Gee seeing your pics made me have flashbacks to when i got 'cupped'

During
it hurt like hell - breathless actually!
(and no had no idea it would hurt)
Post
felt much better
but thought I looked like friggin Barney the Purple Dinosaur (purple marks down the spine!)

Get well soon - love your blog!

haha u got attacked by davy jones and the kraken.

Lol maybe you got the drug resistant TB from jakarta hehe go get urself checked

i don't think fire cupping is good for any health purpose. You actually end up with burst veins and damaged skin. It will takes maybe up to weeks for the sign to disappear. You also may have long term effect later in your life.

Goody, then i shall be there waiting for u! HAHAH.... Penang marathon.. Yeah.

Jia Yiu, KennY!!

WOW... SEXY! LOL...

Looking at your "thingy", you seems pretty healthy. Only sick people will have dark purple sucked-scar!

Oh crap.. I am going again to Jakarta somewhere around this month or maybe next month. I really should try the fire-cupping maybe.

sexay... broad shoulders......... O.O

Ha ha ha ha...maybe you should try eating kimchi. It might help to clear your headache

lmao lmao!!!wahahahaha...FIREcupping huh??they rily put fire in the cup ah??hahahhaa :P

Supposedly the more of these octopus marks youhave on your body the more "poison" is being purged out from your body.

My friend loves to do that - says it detoxifies her... =P

lol the sotong so violet =D

I've done that toxic sucking thing, kenny..but it does not hurt as much as u describe it la... ehehehe.. i guess u cannot tahan pain huh...

anyways, i noticed... u like yellow huh? all ur bedsheet yellow wan... ehehheeh...

Hope to see u soon... take care...

Muaacckkksss!!!

wow your therapist gave you so many love bites. :P

uhh.. the unhygienic food would give u stomach-ache/food poisoning and not flu!

Hey Kenny,

u kena bekam ah? anyway, thats supposed to buang angin and impurities...i had a friend who did it for me....vacuum suction.

Felt better after that though...wot abt u?

Hey!

I'm surprised that you don't know about the "fire cups"! I thought most Kuching chinese people would know the remedy where you either use a plate to scrap your back after applying vicks or ointment , or use your index and middle fingers to "kiap sua" (clam 'sua'[heatiness])?

Same principle as the fire cups because it is targetted to relief body heatiness...

I trust this technique because once when I was losing conciousness and my hearing became fuzzy to the point of a deafening buzz, and my eyes couldn't open anymore and i lost all bodily energy, (cos i think i was too "heaty" and had fever and flu at the time), my father "kiap"-ed my shoulders and i perspired straight away, and instantly gained conciousness. Otherwise i think i would have fainted...

Quite effective, i must say!

:)

woo... been there... done that.. except i had more cupping than you.. i practically had my whole back with holes and worst.. mine was blue black!!!

get well soon!!

its a very popular type of traditional method of detoxifying and known as Bakum in Malay....

most ppl who use this method to detox is among guys.... Btw... they have loads in Malaysia la... why go all the way to indonesia to do it?

gosh tht looks scary! I personally dont believe in them, dont think they really work.

get well soon!

hahaha!!! chubby boy

How gutsy of you to try fire-cupping. Kinda looks like gua-sha to me. Just in cup shapes. Btw, ppl have died from fire-cupping before. So good thing you didn't become another statistic.

machet... hahahahahahahahahahahaha....

hey kenny actually you are not fat leh. you are just the asian with the ang moh size only...heh.

anyway get well soon and update more la! =D

haha... at least will suck all the toxic out mah... ehhem... since u say the lights are dim and in a private room... anything happen??? ehhem hem...!!!

Kenny, your firecupping reminds me of the treatment that I went to for my back problem (I've got slipped disk+sciatica - nerve pain). I went to see this Chinese doctor for a few months...

.. and the whole process of the treament..

1. Acupuncture - he'll poke in needles of "a few inch long" :s into areas with problem. For my case, it's on the lower back, butt and basically almost my whole leg down to the heels. He poked the needles in real fast and will 'tune' it (imagine like tuning knob of a radio) till I was like kena electric shock = means hit the right spot.

2. He'll put a piece of dried medicine on top of the needle.. and burn it (it's like burning 'kemeyen'). Sometimes hot piece of it will fall onto my back.. ouch!!!

3. Once the burnings were done, he'll remove the needles.. real fast! Sometimes would have a bit of blood coming out as well.

4. Firecupping - he'll place cups on 'the spots where he poked the needle just now' ... this really 'sucks'... for first timer, it's painful cuz' it's sucking the skin. There was once he put the cups on my tummy when I complained about a bloated tummy.. Should have kept my mouth shut... imagine firecupping your spare tyre?!

5. 'Tui La' (massage) - he used a lot of strength for this as the main point is to straighten my spine .. which was in the 'S' shape..

6. A final twist on the spine for a loud 'crack'! phew...

The whole process will take up to more than 1 hour. And of course, after the treament, bruised all over. For my first time... I was screaming and crying. First, cuz' of the pain from the acupuncture, firecupping and Tui La.. second.. on an already pain body. And Imagine I have travel for about an hour to go for the treatment twice a week.. every week!?

But good thing is, all the pain paid off when I started to see improvement. Somehow, after a few treatment, I kinda enjoy it :p cuz' it feels so good after the treatment.

I can now walk straight. before that, I could hardly walk cuz' I was in pain. My whole body was senget when I walked.

So.. I won't say that things like this won't work but you gotta have patience cuz' it's not something that can cure after just 1 treatment.

no, u dont

yes u do...

Actually, there isn't any evidence that fire-cupping helps remove toxins from the body so any positive effects felt after the treatment is largely psychological..

Oh well, whatever hurts has to be good for you, eh?

Kids, this is a result of hentai tentacle sex. Do not try this at home.

hahahaha, that is such a way to detox, normal people do it the nomal way, the one where you go into the toilet and take off your pants and concentrate. how can you call this detox man. where does the dirty stuff comes out from?

ur back looks terrible! does it hurt??

LOL my mom used to do that to me when i was little and sick! it hurt...

lucky u didn't throw the cups back at "the cupper" for all the suffering...

looks like there's a lot of poison around ur armpits!

eeks!!! you have! you have! you've been raped by some octopus! and a huge one too! OUCH!!

OMG!!KENNY SIA!!!go 2 howshmotfulofyou.blogspot.com!!!they are sooooo gonna kick ur ass!!!

Hehe hentai tentacle rape :P

dude you shouldn't diss a country so much. They might have the same opinion about Malaysia. You are a guess at their country.

sorry spelling error. I meant guest

Kenny, I advised u better dun use such method. Years ago Kuching here an old guy was died caused of such method u know?

yeah man everytime i go indonesia i also get food poisoning. if i stay for 1 week, i get 3 days diarrhoea, if i stay for 1 month, i get 1 week bad-ass food poisoning.... even tho i eat at clean restaurants (seems to be, cos of the price!) and avoid hawker food. maybe it's the air....lol

what else did she suck out of you? O.O

So did it helped..??

how long will those marks stays?..my friend did the same thing last time n he was the only one wearing clothes n siting beside the beach while we went swimming..hehe

You're bringing sexy back fo`sho. HAHAHAHA. I was watching the Simple Life and they did it to suck fat out of people. -shrugs-

We have thsoe donuts in California.

I heard that doing such cupping draws out black coloured blood... which is supposed to be the toxins.. Is it true?

oh my god !
I thought it was love bites left by those indo girls from Block M. hehehe !

you obviously did not enjoy stadium, next time u go there again let me know, i promise u the party of a lifetime, the girls there are much better then blowfish...oh and by the way, how do i know this, because the place is owned by my uncle....
cheers...

you offer kenny sia to go to stadium again??? please, don't make Jakarta worsen for foreigner

what were you doing when the light was off?you should be the person sucking her.thanks

Beside food, in Indonesia, you should try the traditional treatment too. Because here, same like cupping, our back are scratched by coin + cajuputi oil, and it left a red mark just like yours. It called 'kerokan'. It hurts, but after that, you'll get well.
