The Sacred Paper

i'm sick again...this time it's a bad sore throat. so bad that my ears kinda hurt too.
didn't sleep well. slept at 9.30pm. woke up at 12.30am after dreaming that i had to jump off a plank thats like 20 storeys high into a swimming pool. scary~
went back to bed, woke up at 3.30am. went back to bed, woke up at 6.30am. went back to bed again, woke up at 8.30am. throat hurts the whole night.

so at 8.30am, i made breakfast, struggled to swallow breakfast, then ate my medicine.

the only consolation that i can get from this endles torture is that at least i got 2 days mc.
my pool supervisor told me to take 2 days mc. then at least i get to have a super long weekend.
back home, mum reminded me to get an mc. the longer the better.
and on my way to the clinic, karin reminded me to get a 2 days mc.


here is how the conversation in the clinic went while the doctor is prescribing your's truely my medicine:

doc: so do you want antibiotics?
me: erm..ya
doc: do you have panadol at home?
me: ya
doc: ok. you got vitamin c at home?
me: ya
doc: you got vitamin c at home? *kinda surprised*
me: ya
doc: ok. i'll give you this, this and this. *"this, this and this" being medicine which i can't remember what they're called*
me: ok
doc: so do you want mc for today or tomorrow?
me: erm..tomorrow. cause i took off today
doc: ok
doc: is 1 day enough?
me: eh 2 days can anot?
doc: *gave me those "chau geng" kinda look*
me: eh cause i don't think i'll be ok by tomorrow. *trying my best to look sick and pathetic*
doc: *thinks for a second*
doc: when you ORD? *as he pens the arch for the number "2"*
me: november *still trying my best to look sick and pathetic*


so there you have it...2 days mc...right now i'm trying to "zhong xi he bi". eat antibiotics and drink my "liang teh".


thanx for coming all the way down just to accompany me to the clinic princ3ss. love you.

Time In A Bottle

by Jim Croce

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
Til' eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with you

Chorus:
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you

Chorus

The Magic Potion

the reason why i'm still at home blogging today is because i'm on MC. doctor say i got this thing call "foam mo" or what karin calls "feng muo".
just like how the english speaking calls a guitar a "guitar", and the chinese speaking calls it a "ji ta".

what exactly is "feng mo"?
for those who are unsure of what it is until it occurs to them, such as yours truely, basically it's this rash that you have on your body, and it itches like hell!
so i went to the doctor in the morning, and he gave me a jab on my ass. now i feel like an elephant which just got shot by a tranquiliser. drowsy~

i'm kinda drowsy now...but not before i realise how much better life will be if all illnesses can be cured by a simple jab on the ass.
one jab, and you're cured! how great would that be?

The Letter From Within

i'm not exactly the most patient person around,
nor will i be the nicest person you will ever know.
i can't give you the best of everything.
only the best that i can offer.
i can't guarantee you will be happy all the time.
only that i am always trying to.

thank you for loving me.

The Hollow

paper after paper. memo after memo. numbers which mean nothing to me. that basically sums up my entire week.

Mummy's Birthday

today is mum's birthday.
we didn't have a fancy birthday dinner or birthday cake, but somehow, i feel extremely happy just having a simple dinner with mum and dad today.

to: mum

happy birthday mum!

even though i don't show it through actions, you mean everything to me and i love you lots and lots.

next time when i'm finally earning a decent pay check, i'll definitely get you something nice and fancy for your birthday. i promise.

from: your boy


dad bought mum 7 pink roses, and chocolate for her birthday. i asked dad why he bought 7 stalks and he said it's because he likes the number 7.

The Test

finally...i got what i went there for.
a thank you list; for everyone who deserve a few words of thanks.

:thank you list:

mr. s s lim of car 179: my regular instructor. 179 is the first car i drove, ever. and the last car i drove before the test. not forgetting the many other lessons in it in between.

mr. c n ng of car 172: for in his own words, "nourishing my driving skills with chicken essence while the other instructors are feeding me with chicken."

the saf: what can i do without their pathetic, measly monthly allowance of $390.

karin loh jialin: my lil angel and princ3ss. for giving me loads of moral support, and for entertaining and encouraging me during the countless phone calls that i made to her when i'm having the pre-test jitters. love ya! *hugs*


and there you have it. one small small step closer to my bmw 5 series. yummy~
