Hello from Cochrane Street, Hong Kong!!!
Finally! I'm finally on my long overdue trip which has been brought forward.
Long story, another time perhaps.
Bought tickets last wed.
Flew to Guangzhou to visit my sis last sat.
Took a 2 hour train backwards @_@ to Kowloon, Hong Kong this thursday.
Sitting in a smoothies cafe in the mids of chaotic Hong Kong typing this entry.
Btw, the smoothies cost twice my dinner (which consist of wanton noodles and a plate of oyster sauce vegi). Not overpriced smoothie, but cheap dinner :)
but stuff here CANNOT compare with the stuff in Guangzhou.
Dirt dirt cheap! Food, clothings... NO WONDER the states having an issue with the textiles. Even I'm tempted to buy a truckload to bring home to sell.
Anyway, back to the trip. Was in search of Lan Kwai Fong, MS equivalent of Singapore, when i stumbled onto this smoothies place by the side of the slope with a zillion steps. Ok, fine, i named it that. But its REALLY steep and loooooong. So how can I resist taking a break here and surf a little before i continue in search for the myterious Lan Kwai Fong.
Train back to Guangzhou this sunday evening.
Hangout and attack the wholesale market at Guangzhou one last time before flying back on monday night.
Would touch down next tuesday morning, 3.55am
and back to work next wednesday.
Over and out.

. . .
I smsed:
"Any plans tonight? If not wanna catch a movie or dinner?"
Reply from my friend:
"Hello! Am home, just idling lazily while using my special willpower, will-ing my housework to do themselves. It should be working, else I'll be doing it in oh, another 5 hours or so after I'm done procrastinating, but that's not likely, because my will-power will work."
Me: . . . . . .

Live Life
If there is something we dont like about the life we are living now, then maybe we need to make a change.
Do something about it.
Do something different.
Fight for it!
Life is just too short to wait...

National Security
Attention!
I say, Attention ladies and gentlemen.
This is a matter of national security.
This country is no longer safe!!
It is unsafe I tell you! Regardless of what our leaders say.
It is SO unsafe these days that citizens can no longer attend their friend's house-warming, without having their shoes stolen! Thats right, SHOES! Shocking isnt it!
Was at my friend house-warming last sat... and I left my brand new nike sneakers outside with the doors closed. Since they had the air-condition switched on. When we were leaving, to our horror, we found 3 pairs of our shoes and a pair of socks were GONE! Including mine! My precious white nike sneakers with a green Swoosh! is GONE!!! I got it for less than a month! And love it to bits! Gone! T_T
Shoe Thief!
They should be dragged out into the streets and be SHOT with camel dung! Yes! filthy
camel dung infested with flies of a thousand pigs! Ha! Justice!
There is just no justice.
But determined not to let this unfortunate event spoile my precious weekend, i marched straight to Queensway and bought ANOTHER pair! so... to wear this pair of sneakers, I had to spend $212!!! -__-""
Its amazing how such things still happen. I never thought, never heard nor experienced such things happening... at least until now. Let this be a reminder to us all. Our peaceful country isnt that safe anymore. Never take anything for granted.
On hindsight:
The funny thing is that 3 pairs of shoes... and a pair of socks were stolen. A pair of socks from my friend's SAF running shoes were stolen. But the shoe remains.....
There is a lesson to be learnt here... SAF shoes are REALLY good stuff!
Its Anti-Theft!

Hair = Trouble/Worry
I cannot believe this! I JUST cannot believe this!
EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!
I cant believe they can actually mess it up!!!
I tell them TRIM.
I show them a PICTURE.
and they can STILL.....
.....SHAVE OFF ALL MY HAIR!!!
Besides the little bush they left on the top of my head. -_-""""
ARRGGGgG!!!!!!
*Pull hair*!!!
OOps! i forgot.. i HAVE no hair anymore!
I've been keeping my mane for sooo long... and guess what?
Gone in 60 seconds....
I have changed hairdresser to hairdresser.. and yet, THIS happens.
I guess i have NEVER been satisfied with a haircut.... ever!
Except for the time I spent S$60 to cut my hair in Tokyo, Shibuya. Its glory lasted for all 4 months... till I had to cut it because of all the split ends.
To make matters worse, my colleague mentioned that my hair resembles that of a butch's.
Or.. did she mean to imply i look like one now..-_-"""""
ArrgGggGGhHHHHH!!!!!!!
I think i can permanently leave my blog's title as "Mane is growing"

Merchant's Fondue
FONDUE.
I had my BEST fondue at Merchant Court Hotel's Buffet dinner last Saturday. Oh man! The CHOCOLATE! For the first time in all my fondue experiences, I have finally tasted the REAL thing. The chocolate is really rich, thick, sweet at first, but with a touch of bitterness at the end. Hmmmm.....
Its not diluted and watered down like most of the those cheapo ones I've tasted. And! Its a chocolate fountain fondue. Its LITERALLY a chocolate fountain! Gasp!!!! My mouth is watering as I type!
Then you don't dip it with fruits. No no no...I have always felt fruits never go well with chocolate (besides banana. Although some, mainly women, says strawberry goes well with chocolate. But I disagree.) Marshmallow! Soft and tender, coated with a thick layer of ooozing chocolate.. and as your teeth sinks into it's tenderness, the chocolate flows across your lips. Your tongue gets swarmed with the taste of sweetness mixed with bitterness, sending chills down your spine.....
Hmmmmm HMmmmmm Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Hmmhmmmm HMmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!
And their Durian paste! GASP!!!!
Its amazingly GOOD!
Slurp!!
Its just like real Durian. Blended. Its REAL Durians blended. Although, I must admit, if it was a tad bit thicker, it would have been perfect! The paste was a little to watery... Pity. PITY I didn't have enough room in my stomach to finish it ALL! Muahaha!!!
Just these two dishes alone was enough to get me to pay for dinner :)
And its not too expensive. S$29+++ but with American express we got 15% off! So I just pay 29 bucks! Whoohoo!
CHOCOLATE FONDUE!!!! DURIAN PASTE!!!!
YUMM!
And no... I dont get paid to write this.

Working Dayz
Today is thursday! and after thursday comes friday. and friday is the day before the weekend. I like thursday. :)
Dispite the widely percieved moody mondays, I would have to disagree.
To me..
Monday is a motivating day. After a weekend of rest, I come back to work usually fully energized (or dead tired) and get ready to tackle new challenges ahead. Much like a new born, with all the promises in the world to look forward to.
Tuesday is a tough day. Energy restored from the previous weekend has totally and utterly been drained DRY...and its still soooooo far from the weekend. I find tuesday blues, the true bluez.
Wednesday is a slightly better day. Because i know after today, i will already be hald way through the week.
On Thursday, my mood picks up. Its almost Friday. Like the dusk, the HOT glaring sun loses its sting, and gets ready to set below the horizon.
And finally, comes Friday. This is a day which needs no introduction. High spirits, cheery smiles on everyone's faces :)
So you see... it is working life isnt that bad. Out of 1 week, there are 2 days of Heaven (Weekends), 2 days of high spirits (Thurs & Fri), 2 days of promise (Mon and Wed) and only one day of hell (Tues). Tuesday is our true enemy... not monday. Monday has just been misunderstood all these while.
Of course... unless you need to work on saturday. Then thats a different story altogether.

Diagnosis
Just paid a visit to the doctors.
Still having slight lingering headache and a funny feeling and feeling slightly retarded..... although i am sure some will argue that i have always been... but we leave that debate to another day. So i decided to be on the safe side and visited my company doctor.
The doc said the first 24 hours is critical. As long as there is
-No severe headache
-No vomiting.
-No blurred vision.
-No problems with balancing.
-No sagging of facial muscles.
Then i would probably live...
Although she did suggest maybe i would like to trim my brows, have a face lift, some botox injection, nose job, chin job (you know what they say, Chin is the new nose)... -_-"
Well, lame jokes aside...
Still having a tight feeling around my head and the lingering headache still stays. I guess all i can do now is to get more rest, and stay out of accidents. Tough. Apparently, I seem to lure them. ... like a black hole......@_@

Concussion
I literally walked into a signboard this morning. Was rushing to the busstop... when i saw a bush in the way.. so i dodged it.. and walked straight into the hidden signpost! PANG!!!! the signpost was still shaking when i looked up at it in shock..
After the impact, OBVIOUSLY i was in a state of shock. Half my face went numb for a few minutes. I had a 3 inch long cut on my forehead... luckily, no bleeding. After that... i felt a headache at the lower back of my head... near the neck... alll day long.. even till now.. almost 15 hours after the incident. I hope i'm alright... sigh...
As i heard... concussions can cause DEATH... -_-""
SO! If anything DOES happen to me...
i want a few things to be known...
1) My family to know that i love them greatly and dearly... although i never show it.
2) My manga to be burried with me! hahaaha!
3) All my (limited) savings to go to my niece... to fund for her.. erm... primary school education? .... hmm... maybe just for HALF of her primary school education. ahhaa

Convocation... again ~ Finally
Last Wed, I attended my convocation ceremony.. for the second time. Finally.
After almost 3 years of struggling, lazing and vexing, I have finally ended that phase in my life. Its been sooo long since the actual completion and the convocation, that i dont think i enjoyed the full impact of graduating. Just like when we are clearing our leave before we collect our pink IC after NS. Just that my delay is 1 year long.
But at the end of the ceremony, when all the newly graduates rushed out of the congested Hall, in the mids of the chaos, rush, falling balloons, i turn back and look at everything... the people, the research, the exams, the lifeless-ness and the mess. I thought to myself, I am glad is it over.
At that point in time, the word "Closure" came to mind. Closure indeed. I have to move on with life. And not let this part of my life hinder me.
Like a book, turned to a fresh new page. Blank, and full of promises of what is yet to be. Full of hope and uncertainties. But one this is certain, the book is getting thinner and there is no turning back in this book titled.....

The Decision
It has been decided! and bought!
After much lamenting, I have finally discovered my secret desire and hidden liking for................
THE GREEN ONE!
SNA 699P1
Guys, thanks for your kind offer of opinion. The winner of the votes is actually.... SDA 625 (Red one), with a landslide victory. It indeed has a nicer watch face and more color contrast, thus more fetching. However, when I tried it on at the shop, I realised it doesnt go well with office shirt. Too sporty.
The SNA 699P1 (Green one) is more classy and goes better with office wear. And.. i just cant shake this attraction to the greeeennn! The Red one looks better, thats an undisputed opinon by many, even myself. But i guess deep down inside... subconsciously, i like the green. Hmmm..... i cant believe i just wrote 2 WHOLE paragraphs on the justification of getting my watch. I must REALLY be very bored.

Where did the weekend GO???
Where? Where did the weekend go??
The last i remember, it was friday night. I was overjoyed knowing that the looooong awaited weekend is FINALLY here! But the next thing i know, its monday morning. I was dragging myself out of bed to go work. Who stole my weekend?!
I feel... so cheated!
My boss also felt the same. Is it just us? or did someone sped up the flow of time this weekend?

Recovered and on Blades
Thanks to the super potent medicine from the doctors, I manage to recover from my food poisoning by the weekend. Just in time for SUSHI!! Yumm.. Stomach still holding up till now. Probably is alright already la!
Also, I have been beginning to like in-line skating. So far, I only bladed twice, but I've been liking it. Especially with my injury filled ankles. Doctors orders, no high impact activites for 6 months. Which means no Jogging, no Kendo... and its already been soooo long since I practiced Kendo.
Oh, I am currently borrowing a pair of blades from a friend of mine but am thinking of getting a pair for myself. Any good recommendation?

Poison~in Food Severe
I have NEVER had SUCH a horrible HORRIBLE case of food poisoning EVER!!!
It was the usual. Involves LS-ing... puking... feeling dizzy.... but everything have a whole new challenge to it when i am in office. The usual 3 doors and 75 meters from the toilet seems like a 1.5 km SOC (Standard Obstacle Course). I was also unable to drink or eat anything. Even WATER!!! whatever i ate, i puked. Whatever i drank.... well... it comes out the OTHER side... OTHER!
In short is was a horrible day... and it was a mirical i survived...to take a day's MC the next day. During which i SLEPT the whole day away... Fortunately the Doctor's medicine works. Or else i might have ended up sleeping the day away in the toilet...

Wedding weekend
Wedding density index hits record highest over the last 29 years.
Over the span of these 2 weeks, I have attended 3 weddings.
and over this 2 months, i would have attended 5!!!
Many's reaction would be that its poor on the wallet. True, but its also very heart warming to watch so many of my friends getting married. But it is scary too though. Imagine, they get married, and within 2-3 years, they will be PARENTS! PARENTs! I totally CANNOT imagine myself being a parent yet. I have never really owned even a PET! Not to mention a human being. and seeing how my sis is taking care of my niece, its been described as one of the most challenging jobs on the face of the earth.
Emmm..... i digress.....
Wedding, YEs!
the last 3 weddings i went was held at
Pan Pacific,
Sheraton Hotel,
Fullerton Hotel.
The strain on the wallet seems to be in accending order.... doesnt it.
Of all, Sheraton and Fullerton's ball room is most interesting among all the weddings i've been to.
Sheraton's is a L-shaped ballroom. and the red carpet stretches the center of the bend. Very short walk in for the couples. Fortunately, theres a live camera crew to put the event on the screens. For the people sitting far at the ends.
Fullerton's is a typical long type. However, there are doors with long stairways all along the long side of the ballroom. And the bride and groom walks in from each ends to meet at the center. Once again, with a live camera crew. The first time i witnessed a live broadcast, and it happens on BOTH the weddings i've attended. wonder if its a new trend. although it must be exexex$$$ , but its really a nice touch. IF the camera man does his job well. Oh! for this wedding, the brothers and sisters get to do their own walk in as well! haha interesting. they will walk in pair by pair as well... some sort of a recognition for their time and effort.
Speaking of which, I left home at 6am and reach home only after 2am to help out at the wedding.. AND... help out to wrap up the wedding...... with a fun filled time at the couple's wedding suite :) hoo hoo hoo
OH!!!! the bad karma!!!! retribution will come to me...:(
Over the span of these 2 weeks, I have attended 3 weddings.
and over this 2 months, i would have attended 5!!!
Many's reaction would be that its poor on the wallet. True, but its also very heart warming to watch so many of my friends getting married. But it is scary too though. Imagine, they get married, and within 2-3 years, they will be PARENTS! PARENTs! I totally CANNOT imagine myself being a parent yet. I have never really owned even a PET! Not to mention a human being. and seeing how my sis is taking care of my niece, its been described as one of the most challenging jobs on the face of the earth.
Emmm..... i digress.....
Wedding, YEs!
the last 3 weddings i went was held at
Pan Pacific,
Sheraton Hotel,
Fullerton Hotel.
The strain on the wallet seems to be in accending order.... doesnt it.
Of all, Sheraton and Fullerton's ball room is most interesting among all the weddings i've been to.
Sheraton's is a L-shaped ballroom. and the red carpet stretches the center of the bend. Very short walk in for the couples. Fortunately, theres a live camera crew to put the event on the screens. For the people sitting far at the ends.
Fullerton's is a typical long type. However, there are doors with long stairways all along the long side of the ballroom. And the bride and groom walks in from each ends to meet at the center. Once again, with a live camera crew. The first time i witnessed a live broadcast, and it happens on BOTH the weddings i've attended. wonder if its a new trend. although it must be exexex$$$ , but its really a nice touch. IF the camera man does his job well. Oh! for this wedding, the brothers and sisters get to do their own walk in as well! haha interesting. they will walk in pair by pair as well... some sort of a recognition for their time and effort.

Test Run
Its been almost 5 months since i sprain my ankle.
It has not fully recovered yet even after all this time.
I still feel pain upon impact or rotating it at certain ankles.
Been feeling reeeeallly unheathly.
The coke, the chips, the chocolate.... doesnt help.
Finally, with all the frustration and worries, concerns and stresses overflowing....
I disregarded my ankle and went for the jog i so desperately needed.
and it felt great!
Besides the ankle of course.
and the thighs, and the lungs and the heart. haha
The next morning, instead of feeling lighter cos of the weight i MUST HAVE lost after the job... i actually felt that my body weighs a TON! Every step, every movement feels as if the air around me has drastically increased its viscosity overnight.
Talk about unfit...
But i shall go again. After my ankle feels a little better, i shall go again.
Exercise also contributes to improving our mental well-being.

of relationship
Some look for friends only when they need something from them....
Some look for friends only when these friends need something from them...
Are these considered healthy friendship? Can these be considered as friendship at all? Maybe it can.. but shouldnt friends go through thick and thin together. Good and bad. Not just one?
I went to sleep thinking last night....
"Why do people have to look for each other only when there is a need to?"
Wouldn't it be nice if friends drop an email, an sms or a call just to ask "Wats up?", "How have you been?" or "Hows life?". Busy? Well, perhaps. But i although there is still so much idealism and hope in me, we should just take things as it is sometimes, as some things just cannot be forced upon. And this is one of them. Because Hope, i recently realised, has two edges.
i digress.
Unfortunately, friendship is something you can work hard and obtain. Like all relationships, friendship is something that has to be mutual. If respect come from only one without the other... the only place this relationship exist, is in the mind of the dreamer.
They say good friends are rare, i agree.

Fear and Repression
I have been hooked to the American Sitcom, Boston Legal, lately.
With the ethically challenged James Spader portrays Alan Shore and the legendary Danny Crain, this show is too much to miss.
However, amidst the comedy and witty debates, some points does drive home interesting thought provoking issues. Some closer to our hearts (and home) than we might imagine.
In defending the bill of rights, Alan quoted the following:
Adlai E. Stevenson
Speech in Princeton University ~ 22 March 1954
The tragedy of our day is the climate of fear in which we live.
And fear breads repression.
Too often, sinister treats the bill of rights, the freedom of the mind.
Are concealed under the patriotic cloak of anti-communism
It is far easier to fight for principles than to live up to them.

Zombieee @_@
UUrrgggg.....
I have been sleeping early lately... too early.. 3am! and i wake up at 645am!
Thats barely 4 hours worth of sleep per night. @_@.....
Well, at least i can still do math.
Hmm... lack of sleep and falling sick... these 2 topics seems to occupy the majority of my entries.. it might seem that these full occupy my life. However, that is a highly inaccurate reflection of my life. My life encompasses mainly of daydreaming.. now THATS something to occupy YOUR life. Do it TODAY!
But yes, back to my tired body and swollen eyeballs.... it feels as though they are going to explode.. @_@ Urrrgg...

A story about how i met Zinc and Vit C
Another week of cold....
Been falling sick lately... a little too often.
Its like my life is punctuated with alternate weeks of flu, cold or fever.
Thus, I have decided to try out taking health supplements.
Not exactly crazy about the idea of taking such, as i call, artificial stuff... but anything to get myself healthy again. Dont intend to take this as a perm solution, but lets see where this goes.
Haha, as i am typing this "email" at work... my boss walked by and the TODAY newspaper caught his eye. The cover was an advertisement of the new disaster movie, Poseidon. It cleverly designed to be like a REAL news article, and my boss got a shock! haha. I've been fooled a few times before i begin to always look out for the "advertising feature" disclaimer BEFORE i panic or jump to conclusion..
MI3 this wkend. Whoohoo.. WEEKEND!!!!!

Revenge of the Grass Cutters
I dont know what i did to offend them, nor what i did in my previous life to bring this upon myself... but i believe, it must have been REALLY BAD. Cos they have dedicated their sunday morning to create a LIVING HELL for me.... >_<
Its like 8am in the morning!! COme on!!! have a heart!
"EEEeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzz............"
"EEEeeeezzzzzzzzzz.........."
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzz............"
"AAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" >_<
After an hour of hair pulling, pillow gutting, head banging...sigh... i have finally resigned to my ill-fate and logged onto the pc hoping to find some solitude in the music and surfing. Unfortunately, even my blasting speakers PAIL in comparison under the high decibel generation of the LEAN, MEAN, Grass-cutting NOISE-making MACHINE!!!!!
I have resorted to exploding my mp3 player to Jay Chou's November Choppin with my trusty ear-phones.... finally... peace.... but wide awake... -_-

Its a GOOD friday :)
I finally got to catch up some of my sleep...
i slept for 11 HOURS! *Looks PROUD* :)
AHahaha... but it really feels good. all day i feel so refreshed.
Although still feeling slightly unwell from the flu.. but definately a lot better then before. Unfortunately, i am still awake at THIS time (3am).... which is BAD BAD BAD. should sleep by 11pm! .... ya rite. ahhaa. But like what i read somewhere, a human body begins repairing itself best between 11pm-3am. Dont know if its true.. but i DO feel a difference if i sleep early.
Anyway, met up with quite a few friends today. 1 friend for lunch and 2 groups of friends to celebrate birthday :)
..... and discovered MORE people planning to travel!
Hong Kong for shopping?
New Zealand ??
I ALSO WANT!!!!
Where do YOU feel like going for a backpacking trip? Holiday?

Being Sick is Sickening...
Once again... i am sick...
Once again.. the flu bug paid me a visit.
Those irritating buggers. I really wonder why i ill sick so often lately....
Is this due to.....
-lack of sleep?
-stress?
-lack of exercise? (looks down... cant see my feet. something big and round is blocking)
-lack sleep?
-unhealthy food?
-lack sleep?
-lack sleep????
It all started with bad sore throat (and i still went KTV)
then headache, then a running nose followed.
Uurrggg....!!! I mean... how scary IS THAT! a NOSE running after me while i am having a freakin' headache!!!
Ahahaha.. CLEARLY, I am feeling very slightly better. For me to come up with such QUALITY lame jokes ;) But just slightly, only slightly....still feel like crap. The nose! Urgg... and the aching... Oooo....
FORTUNATELY! Friday is coming. and its a GOOD friday!!!
Many of my friends are taking this long weekend to go off on a mini-holiday.
Some to Genting,
some to diving trips,
some to TAIPEI.... just taipei. haha ;) *private joke*
Me? I stay home to pay homage to my beloved cozy comfy bed...
Hark! its calling me already...... yes.. my master.......my.... precious..............Zzzzzzzzz...

Weekend recharge
Phew! the weekend is finally here.
I really needed this wkend!
Was out with friends for dinner and movie. After a week of working and being surrounded by acquaintances, it is really refreshing, relaxing and rejuvenating to hang out with old friends..... not that they are old... just people i know for some time.... (gotto make it clear. Dont wanna get myself into BIG trouble. Haha)
We watched Kate Beckinsale. I mean, we watched Underworld: Revolution.... They were really nice.. her as... i mean.. the
PLOT! ahaha But she is really one beauty. Her victorian face and features... almost look perfect. Unfortunately, there were some explicit scenes which the show could have done without (not that i didnt enjoy it.. oh i did... i didddddd....:P~~~). It kinda degrades the show to seem as though it needed these scenes to raise its ratings. But the fact is, I would think Underworld part 1 was better.
Ankle report!
Ankle is much better now. Finally begin to be able to walk normally without limping on friday. But it still hurts though. Just not enough to make me limp anymore. However, every morning, its still a pain (literally) to get out of bed. After a night of rest, my feet will hurt badly for the first 5 minutes of contact with the ground. But alls well.
Its 3am! off to bed now. Tomorrow is a brand new day. :)

my niece... sleeps
Yes. She sleeps. and thats about all the memory i have of her.
Over the past 3 wks, i visited 4 times. And all 4 times, she SLEEPS! According to my sis, she was hyper active last night. But today when i go visit, she decides to sleep her way through my visit once again. Even through feeding. She sleep-feeds! She deprives me from seeing her cute smile and almond shape eyes!
I think i repeal girls. Seriously. -_-""

We have visual conformation.
Finally, visuals again. Just reinstalled my HELLO! The free time that comes with a sprain ankle.
Sprain Ankle....Again
Was trying to get to work early today so i can have more time to get familiarized with the morning rituals i have to perform. But as if it is a curse, I sprain my ankle while running for the bus! As I did at the end of the first month of my previous contract. Its like a curse!
The pain was immense! I had to flung my bag off just to prevent myself from falling face front into the concrete pathment *drama* . And after regaining my balance, the only thing i could do was to sit down by the curb... cold sweat flushed down my face as I feel the blood DRAINED from my face... and words fail me. I tried to stand, but my right foot just gave way to my weight. I was completely helpless. After 5 minutes, I manage to start limping toward the bus stop. By the time i got to the bus stop, i was exhausted. Blood was still drained from my face, and pain overwhelming. Not long another bus came and I was on my way to work.
I usually cant sleep on the way to work, but maybe its because of the pain, i was exhausted and slept all the way to work. But when i alight the bus, what used to be a 5 minutes stroll to the office... turned out to become a 20 minutes struggle... with a few stops now and then to take deep breaths.
The whole day was horrible. I could barely walk. Fortunately, my boss also agrees that i should go get my foot attended to. So i got off at 330 to go to the polyclinic for xray.
The ordeal at the polyclinic was another thing. To keep things short, I think the doc didnt appreciate me asking if I could take an xray first since the xray department was closing.. so I feel she could have delibrately NOT allow me to take xray and asked me to come back again if it doesnt recover... THEN, take the xray.... i fail to see the logic.
The whole purpose for me to get xray taken is so that to make sure there is no hairline fracture. IF so, i could safely get my foot attended to by a chinese sinsei. But since i could not be sure, i tot i would just go to a sinsei and get some chinese medicine applied onto my hurting ankle. Especially since i can feel my foot either becoming more numb... or just beginning to feel better, as it seem to be able to hold more of my weight already.
Thats where my SECOND ordeal came. Without asking me what happened and examining my ankle, the sinsei gave my ankle a quick SNAP! ( literally the sound i heard ) I could have sworn my ankle was dislocated at that point in time, and while holding back the yell of pain, look around the floor to see where my ankle flown to -_-"
And there you have it. Just when i tot it was getting better, the sinsei snapped the daylights out of me. Now I am back once again to the same state as i was this morning. Blood is no longer drained from my face, but I am once again unable to apply pressure on my foot. I have problem even walking to the toilet to brush my teeth...... sigh... is this another one of those divine plans god has installed for me? No idea... but i sure hope its worth it. After suffering SOOoo much pain. I really hope its worth it...

After being warded into SGH last monday, My Grand-dad departed last saturday morning.
The wake was only 3 days but it has envoked many tots.
About how a person lives his life.
and about how society has forgotten "kindness" as a virtue.
Now, it is deemed as a weakness.

Spring cleaning and two pink shirts.
After 4 hours of cleaning, clearing, stacking and tidying... i finally managed to see the floor of my typhoon struck room! Whoohoo!! This calls for a celebration! Lets PARTY!!!! and mess up the room again..? no way man! While clearing my room, i set Jay chou's new album "november chopin" in repeat... cool new songs... and as he always does.... there is one of those songs that leaves a bitter sweat feeling when u listen to it. Not too sure about the lyrics... (i mean.. who actually CATCHES his singing/rappin/mumbling when listening for the first time? ) but the melody itself already gives that kinda bitter-sweet after taste. ... its call "Wind" or Feng1.
As for the shopaholic update.... i wore a pink polo t, and bought 2 pink shirts last saturday when shopping with the guys for cny clothes. haha. one from U2.... short sleeves, and one from Esprite.. casual long sleeved dark pink stripes. Dont think it goes with the black office pants i got from G2000 at only $33!! when the original price is $79 i think. Suit pants.. but i think they are getting rid of the old stocks to make way for the new. and it was the ONLY one with my size... ....er.... 29!! hahaa... nah.. i am a 31.. ok la. not THAT bad la.
Aahhhhh.... another day... another dollar...... less:(
