My grandma loves the 8R prints I done for her. When I gave her, she can't bear to leave them. I used the voucher I gotten from the competition I entered when I applied membership last November.
Photograph developing membership for a year for about $20. Got 30% discount for prints without promotion. Anyway, I had gotten back that $20. Actually even more.
That time when sign up will get a few 5R and 8R prints free. 8R print there cost $5. So, I already gotten the money back. From the happiest moment competition I entered that time, I submitted the photograph which my grandma and cousins were laughing with there mouth wide-open. I swapped the candle of my grandma's birthday cake with the candle that will relit. They were amused and were laughing uncontrollably & it was captured by my camera.
From that competition, I won a consolidation prize with 5X $20 voucher. The catch was that all prints are at original price without promotion or discount. But to think of it, does it matter? Just had lesser prints but still free of charge & my $20 spent on the membership can't even print so many photos.
Only printed the whole family photos in 8R for my mum & godma. Yet when they saw the 8R photo of the one of my grandma & all her grandchildren & great greatchildren, they also want the photo in 8R. (-.-)'''

Kanna injection
After Michelle had fever & cough for days, my mum brought her to the doctor again last Monday. Doctor did not know what is wrong & wanted her to go to the polyclinic to take a X-ray & do a blood test then went back to him with the report. Mum requested to go KK straight. There she was diagnosed with lung infection.
Her youngest brother, Wilson, also contracted the infection after having fever for a couple of days & cough for many days. This time, my mum brought him to the doctor I worked for. He just listened to Wilson's breathing & confirmed that he had lung infection.
Both my cousins are still taking medicines & are still on the course of their antibiotics. Just now, mum said Michelle nose bleed twice.
About a week ago, I started coughing again. I supposed, I caught the coughing from them. On Saturday, another cousin, JT, came over. Only knew she was having fever in the afternoon when there was no doctor. Dad drove her to see the doctor at around 8+pm. She had fever, headache & a bit of sorethroat.
Sunday, my dad gotten the sorethroat & I forgot. He bought watermelon juice & it was too sweet so he passed to me after I knock off. I drank it. & in the middle of the night, my cough got worst when I felt much better that day.
When I woke up on Monday, I had a bad sorethroat. Anyway, decided to go to the doctor for my allergy problem that always caused my long winded cough. When doctor knew my cousins got lung infection & that they are still on antibiotics, he decided to give me a 'antibiotic' jab.
Yesterday was not a very good day for jab. I was having ache all over. Not because I am unwell but due to the training I had on Sunday morning.
Maybe because I was unwell, on the journey home on a bumpy bus, I felt really terrible. Just a stop before the final, the gastric juice started to come to my mouth. My mum wanted to go to the NTUC to find rice cooker for my dad. So I had to hang in there & went with her. I took a few bit of cake hoping to feel better but I don't. I wanted to go to the washroom to wash my hand after pinching the cake to eat but I end up vomitting. After reaching my cousin's house, as it was still early, went to take a nap & only then, felt better.
This morning, cough out a bit of bloody phlegm. Subsequent bit was better but that first bit was pretty red. Hope will get better soon.

Bue Tahan my Aunt
Just now after training, my dad went to pick me up. On the way home, he told me that even the youngest cousin, Wilson, had high fever after his eldest sister had high fever for the past few days.
Once home, I asked my aunt if he had any fever medicine as he was still pretty hot when I touched him. She told me that he had taken a cough syrup bought from a chinese medicinal store. Meaning, no fever medicine for him yet when he was having high fever since morning.
(-.-)'''
I had to tell her to better give him fever medicine then she said she'll give him his sister fever medicine. I really can't take it. What sort of mother is she? Aren't she worried at all? With so many hand-foot-mouth disease cases in Singapore, aren't she worried at least a little bit?
After giving him the medicine, she force him to take some more porridge. He refused to open his mouth and his eyes almost closed. I told her to give him some milk instead then let him sleep. Yet she forced a mouthfull of porridge into his mouth and he almost vomitted out.
Told my mum when she came home but she shut me off. (-.-)''' So I shall not care le. The more I see, the more upset I'll be.

Exams finally over
Yay! Exams finally over. At least a big stone had been removed. Don't care if temporary or not. At least I can sleep better without worrying that I'm studying lesser.
I'm not satisfied with my studying attitude for my final paper. Did not have much mood to study. Had another things to worry. My dad's blood glucose high till need medication. Doctor gave him 24 days of medicines then go back review. Hope it'll be alright. My greatgrandmother had diabetes. Doctor worried that my dad was affected. I must also control my diet too.
My mum said that my dad almost fainted at work once (don't know when). My mum also always complaint that my dad does not control his diet, blah blah blah. Well, what can I say? He goes out so early and come home so late. All his meals are taken outside. How much can it be controlled? How healthy can the food sold outside be? Can one be sure that there is no MSG, less salt, less oil, no sugar? Can only try to trust that he will take care of himself. I heard that he tried not to eat rice at work. Is that the reason why he was giddy? I am not sure. But because of that, he always came home feeling hungry and search for things to eat.
My mum bought red brown rice but my dad don't like the rice. I suggested to mix a small portion of that to a normal white rice. At least the taste and texture won't differ much and my dad accepted that after trying out on Saturday but still on weekdays, he never came home for dinner.
Just hope everything will be alright. At least my exams are over.

Problems going holidaying with parents & relatives
On Sunday afternoon, in the car eating lunch after my dance training, my dad took my mum's water & drink. He drank alot so my mum told him not to finish up as she needs water. Thus my dad commented that we will be on our way home and it's at most half an hour. My mum's reply was that she always drink plenty of water a day. Upon hearing that, I asked my mum how she going to survive at Genting Highlands & KL. How are we supposed to bring litres of water for her?
Going holiday was not thought by me. My mum agreed to go with my cousins last year just that after all the delay, my dad could no longer take leaves on the finally fixed dates. Thus, they decided to go this year.
My mum said she don't take water from elsewhere. My dad suggested buying mineral water (I don't know from where) yet my mum comment that drinking too much mineral water is also not good & still saying she drink plenty of water a day. It was 'sian' to hear these. I knew this would happen. What Diamond water purifying system? If can't satisfied her, she would be angry again.
Guess that is why all these years, I never thought of going holidaying. Partly due to money, & I can't really go without them (maybe except the other 3 of my Seconday School friends) & because of my mum's temper. Just last December, going to Desaru. Just that morning, I can't remember due to what. I got scolded for nothing & she showed me black face. I almost rather not go then.
Just take the registering for the trip this year at the travel agency. Due to alteration of the cost per person, my aunt & I was trying to figure out alternative choice that we won't spent too much more than necessary. Yet, she kept grumbling saying she take forever. I was pretty upset then. I could have studied more with that time. When my dad reached, he also didn't bother about the registering, leaving to my aunt & me. I wanted to hear their opinion about choosing a not so good hotel and the pricing, yet they don't bother. Just know how to grumble about the alteration of price.
Knowing my mum's legs problem, and with 3 kids and my grandma, at first my aunt & I was thinking of totally free & easy. We can book the hotel ourselves, etc. But because of them, we decided that we had to follow the tour. Just free & easy upon reaching destination.
Think after all these, if possible, I would never go with them again. I can go mad going through all these.

我好累！我为何要这么拼？这是我想要的吗？
为什么当我知道我终于考进已报读的大学时，一点喜乐感都没有？不是因为我没考进理想中的大学。返而我已放弃了，所以我更该开心。可我却感到害怕。
怕我停了这么多年，这么久，我没法跟上。
怕我佷难结交到朋友。
怕我回到有学恔，离开工作，会不会让爸爸感觉压力。我好怕他又会像我还在Poly唸书时那样一值生病还差点得住院。也害怕他因压力与担心而工作时不小心。在我还在Poly唸书时，他也在工作时还跌到骨裂，也动了两次刀。
我也担心金钱上的问题。爸爸那时也因为怕我的零用钱不够所以才加偅他的压力。再说了，因为我是独生女，爸妈总会希望给我最好。有时会因此买些他们认为我须要的却因此花了不须要的钱。
我也担心妈妈的身体。她的脚，肾，等等。可她老担心她照顾的三个小‘瓜’而乎略自己。
我还怕与担心许多，如果不是朋友的鼓励与综教的精神支助，我想我会放弃大学的学位。
或许是我想太多（可能是处女座的天姓吧），这老是把我弄得更累。累得我想什么都不官。我並不要求什么。我知道爸妈也佷累。可累也不要把自己认为的感觉套在别人身上。明明是个玩笑，只是说说而已，却把事情復杂化。为什么不能往宁一个角度看？是我太乐观吗？不是。我只是讨厌復杂。
我本没想那么多，也没空。我还在为考试而屏了。每天读到凌晨两点多。还在考完一个世试倦后的回家途中就开始读了。因为坐姿，我都读到我背部肌肉痛。我的右脚又有时有些不妥。连左肩膀也痛了几天。我好累！
可刚才明明没什么。因为爸爸的车尾摩到了，他便随口说了后箱有佷多东西（因为他们买米，洗衣剂，等）。妈妈就宊然发火，说爸爸不高兴。我们还没来得及反应，她就在后箱搬东西了。就连我叫她别拿太多都不理。当时的我不知道该如何是好。追她帮她还是帮爸爸，因为后箱还有佷多东西。当世的爸爸是不会愿意走多一倘的。我只能不管我的肩膀和脚了。
再这样下去，不知又会有哪痛或是僫化现有的毛病就是不是疯掉就是。我好累！我为何要这么拼？这是我想要的吗？
