Went to see doctor today and she said I've got throat infection. The inflammation must be due to the nonstop talking during shift over the last weekend that caused my throat dryness over the following few days which then led to cough and runny nose.
So using the co-pay scheme I only had to pay $3.50 which is of cos a good reason I should see the doc and not wait till it gets worse. Normally it's either the illness is not that serious to require immediate medical attention or I prefer to wait or go to the polyclinic. So with this scheme, it saves me a lot of waiting/suffering time and $$.
It's good that I've gotten MC for tomorrow. Cos it means more resting time, hopefully can go en route to recovery asap. Also, it means that can spend more time with family. Joseph is flying on monday night to Taiwan for about 3 weeks... part of NS.
Want to ask him get things for me but I don't know what exactly I want haha so well, maybe give him some cash ask him to take his pick lor. I don't want food though, just give me masks or other beauty stuffs ^^
Anyway dear was here with me from the afternoon till he left half an hour ago... Really appreciate him coming to tutor Marcus and accompanying me.
Happy always :)
Oh, and it's Marcus' 15th birthday today... wish him be healthy and do well in his studies.

Down with cold and cough. Body aching everywhere... not good. Very lethargic, lie down can fall asleep damn easily. Went to see doc at cck polyclinic this morning and the entire duration from pre-registration to seeing doc to collecting medicine to payment was 2 hours. Plus the half hour went Teck Whye coffee shop to pack food and the bus journey home, I reached home at 10.35am. The doc was quite friendly... ok so I knew my conditions and the onset of the sickness etc so it was very fast. But I don't know if it's just me, waited for an hour to see the doc but I spent barely 10 mins, maybe even 5 mins and the consultation was over. Doctors earn money very easy hor... no wonder parents always want their children to be doctors or lawyers lor.
The doc gave me 2 days of mc and I'm really grateful for it cos I can now rest at home peacefully. Ok, although the time spent would be longer than private clinics, going to polyclinic certainly saves me at least half the amount I would have spent.
Total damage caused by the sickness
Consultation: $8.90
Medicine: $7.70
Total spent: $16.70
Wore a mask the entire time inside the polyclinic and I would probably have continued to wear it back home if I didn't have to go pack food. The porridge stall I usually patronised was closed and I didn't feel like turning back empty-handed so I went to the neighbouring coffee shop. No porridge, but mee hun kuay caught my eye so I ordered that. Two friendly-looking uncles were maning the stall, the one handling the wrapping etc was very friendly haha... no details cos too lazy to type but thanks to him that I managed to smile.
It's was raining for a while just now... after I eat my heated up mee hun kuay, shall go back to sleep. Although I'm not going to centre today, I should be going to tuition tonight. Since it's just sitting down and one-to-one, easier la just wear mask lor. I don't want postpone to don't know when already...

Fu also stepped on my toes when he didn't tell me he was ready while I was still about to get changed to go out! He would usually sms me but not that day. How can the both of us prepare at the same time, what about my travelling time from cck? So he was at City Hall while I was still at home. Yah, so I threw temper.
Why City Hall; cos I wanted to go Stamford House to visit the new freebie concept store to redeem my freebies. But forget it la so late already... so I told him to meet at Chinatown lor. And not I really want to say la, but he didn't even have his lunch before coming out! Yes, although if he waited for his parents to buy back it would be 2+pm but so he should go eat first right and not like tell me he reached already, where was I? So of cos I threw temper la.
Didn't know if it was the morning runny nose or the hormones surge from the pills... I was damn irritated. Reached Ten Dollars KTV also sian sian one. Plus I was cold and sleepy at the same time so bo bian. After ktv, went Chinatown market and everything was on Jingxi's treat cos he said he just got his first pay. Great dinner with so many food lor... got zi char, got xiao long bao, got yam cake, got popiah, got bbq stingray etc.
After that went Chinatown Point mac sdntc... really nothing to play until play forfeit games like foc games like that. Laugh a lot, laugh till cry, laugh till stomach pain, laugh till cough. Super lame one lah... plus disgusting lor.
Both Fu and I kena dare lor... he had to be tomato-kissed by Collin and I had to tomato-kissed Fred. And as usual, went back late late reached home at about 11.30pm lor. Next gathering: 16 August 2009 to take outdoor photos with the three new grads.
Sunday spent the day at home doing my favourite activity - nuah. For dinner, daddy treated us to Sakura international buffet, the Clementi Woods Park branch. It was supposedly a celebration for my graduation. Thanks to my family for the once-in-a-lifetime kinda dinner, we spent 3 hours there lor! We ate alot alot of food; I love the salmon sashimi, the grilled chicken, the little little square pieces of cakes etc. 5 pax total bill $144.45.
Eaten until super full and came back decided to walk up the 11 stories of stairs home hahaha. Yesterday woke up was ok ah... but went centre feeling tired and sleepy. No runny nose liao, but slight cough already. Not good lor. Miss Lim said I black face one... really ar? I also didn't know la, but I just feel tired lor. Supposed to have tuition last night but I cancelled it last minute so I could go home rest and also because Mrs Chiam and Mou laoshi left when their husbands came to pick them up at 7pm. So I was left behind with some girls, but Mr Tan was around cos he had tuition nearby.
I've finished the pills last night. So it's just left with waiting for the menses to come. This reminds me that Xiuling mentioned she will be going to get the cervical cancer immunisation sometime soon. Ok, shall surf on this another time. Now a bit sleepy, maybe is the medicine I just took. Slept early at 10+pm last night and woke at 8+am this morning. Ok ah... 10 hours of sleep leh but like not enough one lor. Still felt tired and the cough has worsen already lah. Don't know how also... today will still go centre then decide bah. Meeting Miss Lim around 12.30 - 1pm later.

제 이릉은 재니스입니다.
만나서 반가워요.
저는 싱가폴사람이입니다.
저는 난양대학교예서 공부합니다.
저는 한국어를 배훕니다.
Fallen sick last friday and I slept the weekends away. Was already coughing last wednesday but it only became worse on friday when I was down with fever. And thoughout korean class last friday, i was shivering in the cold, sneezing and blowing my nose. So couldn't participate in classroom activities... the 선생남(teacher) knew and let me be.
Saturday Fu visited me and spent the afternoon with me while I rested... most of the time I was asleep coz the fever was quite high, about 39 degrees c. Idiot popped by with two of her friends~
I was in quite a shock coz I was barely asleep for half an hour and awoken to see them. I remembered I asked her why like bringing her friends see "show" - which was referring to myself of coz. Coz I was quite an ugly sight la, forget the room was messy like anything, but I was messier with my hair not washed for days and wearing an over-sized pair of pants that belonged to my brother.
Sunday slept most of the time as well. I couldn't remember what I did except maybe making Marcus sit in my room and do his work while I sleep. Would have accompanied Fu to go to Fred's house to discuss details of their taiwan trip if I hadn't been ill. Heard that Oli and XL turned up at Fred's as well... it's ok if I had missed that chance to see the others. Perhaps this Sunday?
Monday the fever finally went away, gonegonegone! Tried to write my korean characters but felt lethargic and drowsy. Must be the medicine, coz I've been taking too much of them. Sigh~ And Idiot came to visit today. Details shall be spared coz she said not to be reminded of what happened. Well...
Yesterday didn't do anything except went school for korean class. Alot of new words and phrases to be learnt from now... the quizes are manageable so far. This week is S/U week, but I'm hoping not to s/u this elective so I'll wait till friday and see how. Coincidentally saw Idiot on the boonlay mrt platfrom. When will I see rabbit? Miss her...
Idiot said on monday to meet on this sunday. Nothing's confirmed yet of coz... but my mind has already decided on it. Becoz Idiot isn't gonna be free on saturday and rabbit should have tuition? And so, sunday is the best day. I wanna past you the bag of goodies, rabbit. And who wants a game of mahjong? My dad recently just got an old mahjong table from somewhere... haha
OK~ 안녕히 계세요.

the last weekend just came and went... remember last thursday on which mom and dad were scheduled to leave for ipoh... yeah, it was that horrible night, i was walking home after tuition at 7.30pm. i was able to leave early coz i had planned to go home and see them before they leave house. coz they had to leave house around 8.30pm to take cab to jalan sultan road or what so take the tour bus...
it was not a good day to start off with, coz i was having cramps since afternoon... and while i walked, i thought it was just the cramp, and it was going to go away sooner or later. and i just had to walk faster to go home and rest. BUT it didn't get better... worse still, my legs were trembling and weak at that time.
AND, i was barely halfway home when i felt the spells, it was like hey, what's wrong with my eyes? why was everything so blurry and shaking... then i just paused and tried to calm myself down. ok, i thought i felt better and i took a step.. oh that was a bad move, i really almost fell down. so i bent over and sat down on the pavement.. that's like so un-glam. but nvm... i need to feel better.
thereafter, i called mom and she called dad coz dad still haven't reach home from work at that time which was around 7.35pm? and then mom called back asking me to call dad and all i remember was a series of calls... the plan was for me to rest and when dad's exit PIE, he would go over to pick me up. i wasn't able to sit for long, i sat for a while and i thought i should be able to cross the traffic junction... and i went.
i crossed the junction and walked for like 10,20metres then i couldn't take it... i could just faint if i didn't instinctively squatted down. lucky for me, i held back my panic attack. otherwise i think i would have cried. i called mom once again, and she volunteered to go find me. at that time, i was 20metres to the mobil petrol station(luckily)... coz when she came a couple of minutes later, i had to go to the loo... bleh. my tummy hurts and my legs were not functioning... she had to literary drag me to the loo and i was so glad when dad reach the petrol station while i was in the loo. coz i heard him shout thru the toilet door... lol.
we reached home around 8.15pm and dad had to quickly bathe and had dinner and they both rushed out. coz they rushed, mom took my camera without its battery and i felt bad when i heard dad was unhappy about that. well...
i still don't know why the sudden fainting spells. perhaps it was the cold choc milk i drank in the afternoon? or the mango juice i had during tuition?
whatever it was, it was a bad experience k...
the following two days were spent being a nanny and babysister; making breakfast, taking out and in the laundry, buying lunch, cooking dinner, mopping floor... neverending list of household chores. despite all that, i was happy coz i had Fu for company~ thanks dear.
didn't had time to chat with via at her party last saturday coz she had to entertain her other friends. and i just realised it's been really long since don't know when was the last time we really chatted. i hope she likes the stuffs i got for her and suits her, and i think she should know the meaning of those special ones. got a call from her last night which i missed... i was on bed when she called. i wonder why she called right after midnight, when she's just turn 21. but i sleepyly cancelled her call. haha, sorry about that. we can chat another time right?
Dear via,
You've been a special friend to me since the day we've met. And it's been four years since that day... We used to bicker, or at least i would snap at you whenever i disagree with you back in the jc days. That's probably the reason why you were scared of me at times. We're both stubborn, but i'm more. And i'm petty and somehow we are almost direct opposites in nature and personality.
Your personally is something i admire, for it's so unique in you. You never fail to seek to resolve things in the most peaceful ways. Although sometimes, this is the weakness in you. Remember how you used to call yourself weird? :)
I missed the times we had together... like we used to buy some things for each other on the certain day of each month, share gossips and jokes and thoughts, how we would call each other on our journey home back then... not forgetting the little notes and letters and junks. *holding back tears*
There are things i couldn't remember on my own, i would need you to piece the memories with me. Babe, just want to say even though i'm always acting like i don't care. You do know i care, don't ya? And i just hope like what you said, we will have more memories with each other...
idiot7Missya and Loveya~
Yours, Jan

it's the first day of feb~goodbye tudi... welcome dear son. lol... he will understand what i mean.
anyway, the last few days was practically trying to recover from my illness and rushing reports. i hate reports!! especially when you gotta hand in two on the same day. shucks!
monday went to school see friends and see doctor... the baldy doc gave me antibiotics! oh man... was it that serious? then went home napped and went for tuition then came home and slept till tuesday... so tuesday i was wondering whether gera and i will meet hx. so since no one msged, and i was coughing pretty badly and not to forget the effect of the medication, i couldn't be bothered to ask huixin. she's really bad lor, how could she said of not wanting to meet us again... sigh. won't talk about it for now...
tuesday was good becoz no tuition. so i slept through the day... other than the time when i was rushing the stupid reports in the afternoon till 1am lor. i actually planned to forgo the second short report becoz i don't understand how to plot the stress-strain exponent graph and the isochronous graph...
then came yesterday when i woke up late for lab!! argh... sian lor. last to reach the lab and was coughing coughing coughing :( then had to sand the damn steel piece to a shiny finish. yeah right. but at least the report for this experiment will be an easy one. but i've got help from weiqiang for the graphs i couldn't do previously. thanks WQ~ then i stayed for 2,3 hours in the library just to finish up the reports and to submit them. was glad. and because i was rushing to school, i didn't take my medicine and forgot to bring to school, so i went home to take the medicine. and becoz i was rushing home, i forgot i wanted to go for the GiP talk... sian. but nevermind for now, there are other scheduled sessions. then after i took the medicine, i napped for 45mins. not enough but no choice, i had to go for tuition... jeez.
so now it's thursday, but i wonder what the day ahead will be like. just hope the tuition tonight will not be cancelled so the 8th session will soon be here. and tomorrow will be the 8th session for the yewtee girl i'm coaching. i promise her to tell her the details of the reproduction of plants. you know, those stigma, anther, pollen tube stuffs.... i completely mix them the female and the male parts. well, the last time i touched those stuffs, i was perhaps in P5 or 6 coz i don't remember we studied that in sec school?? so that's like almost a decade ago..... god.

sick again!!now i wonder if i ever did recover... sigh.
it's quite terrible to be coughing non-stop, given my health is already in ruins. lol... what kind of desciption is this anyway. but yar, cough until lungs also weak, heart not strong enough to pump blood around. haiyo... why am i sick again?
bah... now father is scolding me for not seeing a doctor yesterday. like i know it will become so worse. and anyway, i went out mah... it was still okay in the morning de. and i don't know why it just strike becoz friday night after tuition, i was still fine.
ok, so maybe it was yesterday's lunch that made it worse. but... no point saying it now. shared a seafood platter with Fu, becoz he wasn't hungry enough to need one dish by himself... and looks like there wasn't any thing that i should have eaten... haha. better yet, i dipped my fries and calamari in chilli sauce and erm... ate the oreo/cookies-n-cream scoop of ice-cream... now i know you wanna say 'serve me right' right... haish :(

very weak from all the coughing already... not sure if this is the route to recovery or it is a sign that my illness is changing for the worse, yet.woke up this morning and coughed nonstop. couldn't stand it and went back to sleep for an hour more. woke up and i still keep coughing... really depressed. coz yesterday i thought i was much better and today i got to register subjects and go for tuition. sian liao lor...
i wonder if it's becoz of the 2 pieces of nugget i ate last night and/or becoz i slept late last night and/or i sat in front of the computer too long yesterday. but tell me now also no point. arrr!
taken in a disciple yesterday. haha... and that makes me a grand master of someone else too. when my timetable is confirmed later and the tuition schedule finalised later tonight, i shall leave my tu di to plan an outing this month for me and sc11, being the month of jan. yup, this is my month. i want to enjoy as much as i can but i must first get well.
嗨...这场大病来得真不是时候。
xl was asking me what i want for my 21st birthday. actually you can buy me anything i also will like de. BUT please buy me things i can use or i can keep de. underlining meaning: don't buy me anything like the dress sc11 bought last year. the same amount could have been used to buy me lots of other useful things leh. lol... i very bad hor, so grouchy now.
PS: don't buy the goong dvd on my wishlist... now i don't even know if i still want it. and even if i want, i will get it on my own. in the meantime, if i happen to think of anything i want, i will update on my birthday wishlist. =) hee~
to myself: Get Well Soon!

headache. cough worse. voice hoarse. gone.met oli to go orchard together last night. and she was really idiot to come up to yewtee from clementi just to accompany me to take the red line down. all because i was lazy and tired to keep changing lines if taking the green line. but i appreciated her actions. thanks via~
meant to meet Fu after i reach somerset which meant he was supposed to end his lan earlier than the others. but somehow the plan changed. and two idiots were walking around in cine while waiting for the others to join them. they saw pastamania and realised they were hungry. but they didn't immediately went in. because they were thinking of the others.
and then the others called to say they've reached and they were going to eat in basement or somewhere. at that point in time, the idiots saw a hong kong cafe 新旺（香港）茶餐厅, so they decided to enter. why? because they wanted to make someone feel bad for not joining them. lol. really idiots right?
idiot 7
idiot 6
congee. sticky rice in lotus leaf. pork chop burger.
unwrapped the surprise.
view of fireworks from the escalator to level 6 in cine.
oli: i took the serviette home leh...
but the decision was kinda a right one. because the others went up to level 6... not intending to countdown or what. or maybe there were people who wanted to countdown lah, but just didn't know how. or because they had each other's company to need any countdown. anyway, oli and i tried to initiate countdown over the phone. but that only showed us the great constrast between the atmosphere in HK cafe and the atmosphere imagined over the phone. bleh. we were kinda glad to spend the last seconds of 2006 with the right crowd. lol, not that the sc11ians up at level 6 were not right though. just... you get the idea.
but i would have wished it to be with Fu. i havne't have any private time with him in a long time le. haish. oh well... things just cannot go my way.
watched deathnote2. alright. a bit draggy though... for a while throughout the movie, i was wondering if there would be another sequel. i didn't exactly like the ending: both kira and L died. for what sia~ and i thought hey, there should be many other shinigamis(death gods).. so what kind of ending was that. haha. but it's afterall just a show.
movie ended at 0316. coz i checked my hp. wanted to hurry home but had a little bit miscommunication with Fu and the others. the others were gonna eat at the kopitiam behind cine mah and Fu was planning to take NR there too. but i checked the guide and found the best bus stop to board to be the one in front of hereens. because it would have came from cck and thus be quite empty for me to find a seat, rather than taking from behind of somerset station where it came from boat quey, clarke quay and mohd sultan rd... i wouldn't be able to board even.
i shall just skip the unlucky events that followed while waiting for bus. otherwise, how else could i have board the bus only at 0425 and reach home around 1 hour later. but i can tell you, the journey sucks. i was already kinda asthmatic and the bus was speeding like bullet-trains. i felt like vomiting all the time...
this is the worse time i've been sick in a long time. i'm never gonna do this again, no matter if the tickets were already booked or what. to all, understand me ok. you won't want to try it.
going back to sleep.
happy 2007!

sore throat. headache. fever.so i took a nap yesterday afternoon and woke up around 5pm because i needed to go for tuition. just when i lifted my bag to carry on my shoulder after eating some bee hoon, i felt my hp vibrate then stop. saw 1 missed call and without looking at the number, dialed back. that was my tutees' mother. apparently she wanted to change tuition to today. luckily i'm still at home. otherwise i will be so super sian...
so this lethargic me chatted with mummy on her bed. we talked about quite a few things, but i could only remember we discussed about how to celebrate my upcoming birthday. i don't know, i kinda wanna keep it within budget. so was thinking whether to invite people to my house or just heck. and catering buffet is so not cheap that i asked mummy if we can just cook on our own. to my few girlfriends, if this is gonna be my decision, i hope u gals can come earlier to help out? lol...
then had dinner and watched tv. 天外飞仙 is becoming quite touching towards its last few episodes, so is 冲上云霄. felt sleepy but didn't want to sleep just yet so i went to pick out a few electives for the waitlist. then my throat hurt and asked mummy for honeyed water. called Fu after his work and complained of my sore throat. then i ate panadol and went to bed, not without covering myself with the blanket.
didn't expect to wake up at 2+am feeling my body so damn hot. then i knew i was running a fever. i thought it would go away if i just go back to sleep. but it was so unbearable. i thought must be the window otherwise why was it so cold. then i saw that the none of the windows was opened. and i rememberd i asked marcus to make me a bottle of honeyed water before i sleep. so at least i got some drink to soothe the throat, though useless. 3+am, the middle of the night, that's the coldest time of day. no wonder i felt like my body is burning coz of hugh difference in temperature with the room. i didn't want to wake my parents so i just lie on bed and tried to make myself sleep. i couldn't even get off the bed because it was really too cold for me.
so i waited and waited and kept calling for mummy... hoping it was 7am all the time. because my parents wake early. the time literary ticked by from 5 to 7. you know, that reminded me of a show i watched on discovery channel - i shouldn't be alive. the guy was immobilised after his helicopter had crashed down in the african plains. his legs were either dislocated or broken. and all through the night, he had to "fight" off lions and hyenas... with his knowledge of animals and with whatever he could reach as "weapons". he too, mentioned of the time slowly ticking by... lucky for us, we both survived. at 7am, it wasn't that cold already. mummy found me cuddled up into a ball and brought me more panadol. and i slept till just.
seems the fever has subsided. but still haven't decide if i'm going for tuition this evening. shall see how later. and oli should be coming, with xl or not i don't know. but 1 thing for sure, i think i cannot eat sushi today =(
