How to get well?

I am still having sorethroat. But it served me right. I didn't want my parents to worry and bug me to go see the doctor. Thus, I never let them know.

Yesterday's dinner, my mum bought chicken rice for me. I usually ate with the chilli sauce but due to my sorethroat I decided not to. But after a few mouth-full, I decided I should add chilli sauce as the rice was not nice. I added too much by accident and the chilli sauce happened to be pretty hot. So not good for my throat.

Worst still, my dad bought chilli crabs home. He bought 2 crabs and only me and him eating as my mum is allergic to it. I am unsure if I will be allergic as I kinda found out previously that I might be allergic too (minor allergic).

Well, even if I might have allergy reaction other than my already sore throat, I still have to eat. My dad had been eyeing on crabs days ago (even weeks), but didn't managed to ate it. And since he already bought, what can I do? Eat then decide how loh.

Luckily when I woke up today, my throat didn't seemed to worsen and my palm is still normal without the tiny itchy bubble-like blister. Just hope I can get well soon.

Even though I was lucky in that sense, I almost missed teh staff bus to school. I only realized I forgot to bring my wallet with my EZ-link card when I was almost reaching the bus pick-up point. I know I could borrow money from my friends but how am I going to go home when I don't have EZ-link card? I got dance training today so I can't afford to wait for my staff bus as it would be very rush for me once I reached home. So I had no choice but to ran home to grab my wallet. Running was something which I kind of dare not do nowadays. I was worried about my right hip ligament problem which I said previously that it never seemed to really recover well since last December. Now, my right leg kind of keep feeling 'numb'. Just hope it's alright ba.

Anyway, last year, I joined the member for developing photos at Harvey Norman as there will be discount for developing photos and there are 5 pieces of 8R and 5R photos free. Joined after calculating and finding that it's worth it as I usually had to take bus to JW to develop photos at the place where my cousin work as I would be charged based on her rate.

Well, after joining the member, I get to join a competition, 'funniest moment' or something like that. So I used the photo taken during my grandma's birthday a few years ago. She and a few cousins was laughing with mouth wide-opened as I cheekily swap the candles with the one that will re-light. They were amused then.

Yesterday, I received a mail from Harvey Norman and I got a consolidation prize and received a $20 x 5 voucher for developing photos at Harvey Norman. The sad thing is that the vouchers ended at 31 May this year and I do not have any photos to develop now. But I am still happy as I think this is the first time I won in such event/competition.

Falling sick again... Damn...

Past few days was my term break. I didn't rest enough. Most of the time was spent on watch videos and cracking my head over the Psychology tutorial. There are 2 questions. 1st is to give interesting experiences. 2nd is to give creative examples. It was a torture for me as my life had been pretty plain. Anyway, managed to think of something today for it. Hope what I thought of were ok. But still got 2 part I am still struggling.

Guess what, I also never do 2 other tutorials. Jialat leh. So slack. Not really lah. I also got my dance training last Wednesday at the other side of Singapore. As for Thursday and Friday evening, was spent on watching Getai. But I never slack. I brought my Psycho textbook and read trying to look for clues.

The weekends were also busy for me and lucky me. The practical class for today was cancelled and it seemed not to be postpone. And 'heng' I double check the timetable yesterday if not, I would have gone school today.

Yesterday, after work, I realized my throat pain. Don't know when it happen as I was busy at work. I looked into the mirror with torch shining into my mouth and found that my throat swell again. Even my tonsils swell. Especially my left tonsil and behind it, there seemed to have white spot again.

As I was tired after a long day yesterday, I can't get up to go and see the doctor. In the middle of the night, when I was up for a toilet break, I wanted to take a look at my throat. Yet after grabbing the torch and my eyes (spectacles), I dropped dead and I slept over the torch and my spectacle. Frameless spectacle somemore and it was already loose. Luckily it never break if not I would be blinded.

Today, my throat had been bad. Especially in the early morning. And I don't know if it was due to the weather or myself, I felt cold in the late afternoon. I should have gone to see the doctor but as I woke up late, and I still had that stupid Psycho tutorial to settle, I decided not to go.

Evening, went for my dance training again so can't go to see the doctor. I did pop pills for the swelling since last night. But I think it would be best to have antibiotic for the throat inflammation. I hope it won't go any worst.

Few days ago, it was my right feet giving problem. (Not my right hip problem but this problem is still there which never seemed to get totally well since last December.) It was at the bottom of my foot just right behind the smallest toe. It hurt when I step on my right foot which made me wonder how am I going to dance. Well, the pain was there since Friday and was worst on Saturday. It was still painful on Sunday morning while I was going for my training and it mysteriously gone gradually while I was having my training. After this problem was solve, and now my throat. Very jialat loh. I just can hope for the best as I having lesson tomorrow. No time for doctor.

Valentine Day

Today is the first Valentine Day aka Friendship Day since I started going back to school. It had been quite a different yet enjoyable day for me. Not what you think it should be (cause I do not have bf yet). The difference is how I spent my whole day.

Well, I can't remember how this day past when I was still studying as it was ages ago. I remember that in Secondary 1, my best buddy made roses with ribbon and gave all of us. That was my 1st ever Valentine Day cum Friendship Day. I learnt to make the rose from her then and made for my colleagues last year. It was a pity that this best buddy of mine choose not to keep in contact with any of us from Secondary School. I do missed her. Yet if I ever bumped into her, I won't know what to say. It'll never like before. So I just hope that all is well for her.

As for the past few year that I was working, I did help my dad bought flowers and past to him. When he came home with the flowers for my mum, I appeared surprised. LOL. Shh... It's a secret! Hee!

Back to topic. Hmm... How I spent the day?

Had early morning psychology lecture at 0830 hour so I took my staff bus. Decided to alight at another place to try another route. After lecture, went back to SBS to wait for Michelle who went to pass cookies to her bf. After which, she went to SAC to collect a bouquet of roses as she had to deliver to a hall. We escort her as she made her delivery and I saw a Poly friend along the way. Actually, it's because she doesn't know the way and she asked KQ who is staying in hall to lead the way. Caren & I just tagged along.

After the delivery, we went to the ADM library which is nearby. 1st time there. Got DVDs there. There are horror movies, cartoons, etc. Quite recent shows. Cool. But the place was dead quiet that you might hear a pin drop.

Went for lunch and there I saw another friend. Thought she was studying but she said she was working there. Time have changed. Nothing happened after as we just went to the library and went for our practical class at 1430 hour.

During the practical, we had a 90 minutes incubation. At first I thought we would have nothing to do so I thought of doing tutorial. Yet, Michelle wanted to go to SAC again and Caren asked if we could go and take a look and off we went. Her CCA room was filled with flowers. Pretty messy but the place was filled with the sweet scent of flowers.

KH, KQ's friend told her that there were wine tasting in the auditorium so since we got a long break, off we go to the auditorium. Out of 4 of us, only Michelle and I took a wine glass each. Since Michelle wanted to taste, I thought I follow too. Just taste, won't do any harm. Well, we tried a few, yet most or I should say all, we also don't know what we are taking. LOL. Well, every tiny bit of wine that I got, I shared with Caren and KQ who do not have any wine glass. Each of us take sips just that I took slightly more than them. Michelle whom never asked them to try from her glass, went pink after like 5 or 6 different wine. She still asked us if we wanted to try any others. We called it a quit then stopping her from drinking further. Anyway, this is my 2nd time trying wine.

Since there were still lots of time, we stay around look at the photos, at the how the person made a bear hugging a heart, etc. My friends was wondering if we could get the balloons and we dared not move down to ask as we were standing in the middle of the flight of stairs that was going up. When they decided to move down, yet they do not dare to ask. I just stand there and see how the bear and heart was folded. I hope I can remember. Then somebody came to ask the guy if they could have the balloons and the guy made for them. There were like 3 of them and we only know that we could request for one after they asked. Thus, we have to wait very long.

By the time, Michelle got hers made (she asked for a flower), it's time for us to go back. Caren and KQ still wanted the balloons so they asked Michelle to go back to the lab 1st. LOL. I also thought of going back then but they said since I waited with them for so long, I may as well just get 1 before I leave and I gotten the bear on the heart. Then I went back to the lab with Michelle. I think we were the only 4 students there who had gotten the balloons as most people do not know that they could get the balloons. But during the incubation time, I saw quite a number of my coursemates at the auditorium tasting wine.

Well, after the lab, Michelle helped me hold the balloon and in the end, I snap a photo of her with the balloon. LOL. When I got home, I placed the balloon on my parents' bed and sms my dad to show him the balloon and told him to keep quiet so that it would be a surprise for my mum.

When my mum got home, she asked where it came from and guess what! My dad said that I mms him the picture and asked if he want to get for my mum and he asked me to get for him. LOL. So another secret between my dad and I. Shh... Hee. And my mum loved the balloon. When I tried to snatch away, she would grab it or tickle me or hit me to get away from it. She said I could take photo of it but not take away! Wahahaa...

My dad also managed to get a bouquet of roses for my mum despite his busy work. He even got a smaller bouquet for me. He's so funny. Yesterday, it's 'everybody's birthday' according to the lunar calendar (ren ri) and he sms me early in the morning just to say 'happy birthday'. LOL.

Enough of words. Didn't want to write so much but still... Anyway, here are the pictures that are more appealing to the eyes.

Balloon I gotten from the auditorium which had became my mum's pressie.


Michelle behind the balloon.


Flowers for my mum.


My mum's pressies.


My mum's pressies with my flower.

All in all, it's been a great day for me!

Weird Scary 'Nightmare' Again

This morning, had a weird dream. Dreamt that I had just alight from a bus or so near my house. I was facing a car-park. There was a car driven by a lady. And at the passenger seat, there were other passengers. I only saw the driver side of the car so I don't know much about the other passenger. The passenger behind the driver was a younger lady.

I don't know what happened. As the car moved, the younger lady fell out of the car. She seemed alright then. The driver still don't know that her passenger had fell out of the car. She drove further and further away only then she realized that the lady had fell out and instead of stopping the car and walked over, she drove over trying to get close to the young lady. But she got far too close. Too close that the lady head went under the car. Either the head view was hidden by the wheel or her head got stuck by the wheel or the her head went under the wheel.

The driver came out and saw the view and started pacing about. Another passenger, a guy, came out too. He seemed to be communicating with the young lady but she seemed to be in agony. Nobody in the surrounding seemed to call for ambulance or help. So I called. While describing the problem and somehow, the lady was able to get unstuck by the guy and stood up. In my mind, I was thinking that maybe only her hair got stuck. So I told the person over the phone that the lady seemed alright and the person put down the phone and I left.

Not long after, I heard that there was news that something happened to the lady again. Something like one can never escape death even if there is anyone around who could detect unusual phenomenal would not be able to detect that someone is going to be brought to the other world. I woke up after that feeling my heart was going to pop out. I was so relieved that these were just a dream / nightmare.

I think I could get why I get such a dream. But what happened in my dream was not how I would know why. Called ambulance (Saturday, I called the 1st ambulance in my life as the doctor asked us to call for one for a patient).

Well, this is not the 1st time I had weird dreams. Yesterday morning, also had a weird dream but but not that weird. In my dreamland, I just overheard someone who said I can't go already. When I woke up and went to see doctor with my dad, I asked where my mum was and if we are going to pick her up. My dad said she went to the market and won't be going with us when the night before she told my aunt and cousins that nobody is home as she is going with my dad and I.

So, she didn't go with us and she cooked porridge at home for us and my cousins. She allowed them to come over again. Anyway, last night, I asked if she said 'she couldn't go already', she said she never said such comment. But it was so coincident that the comment fit her so well. Weird.
