Sick

Bouts and bouts of illness.

2 weeks ago, i had common cold.
Today, i am recovering from fever.

Sigh.

Just like a pills popper, i eat medication non stop. HATE IT. I long for the day when i am well again, to enjoy the fun, the sunshine and going out. I am someone who cannot sit still. When i am sick and tired of lying on the bed, i dream of the times when i go for ktv. I just dun wanna lie down and do nothing. TIME CRAWLS.

So, i thought abt the perculiar times when i feel sick...

Incident 1:
I recalled that in primary school, after my primary 5 or 6 exams, i bought canteen food home to celebrate the respite. I bought curry bee hoon, bee tak mak soup etc. home to celebrate. I even told the aunties at the stall of my "party". Man, i was so happy and carefree...only to end up with indigestion...I fell sick for the next week. Hahaha.

Incident 2:
I was very very hungry then. just after school. It was common then to order Marigold packet milk, probably as part of MOE's plans to give her children enough calcium. Once, i finish 1 packet of milk right after school and gobbled down another bowl of porridge. And had tummyache for one whole day.

1 lucky bird

"U r one lucky bird".


Indeed, i am.

1. I got bird friends (Birds of the same feather FlOcK together)

1x bird friend: (must make small small, if not i will get nagged for the rest of my life)

2. At work, I've got a project to work on, which of course, comes with a whole load of bird work.
3. I learn more about bird management.
4. And who knows, leading a bird's life may be fun.
----------------------------------------------------
A friend sent me a youtube link on this piano piece on Fullmetal Alchemist. And led me to this video:


And subsequently, I ventured my way to...
this:


and this:

-----------
There you are, the 3 musical instruments which i like:
Harp, flute (Can't find one which I particularly like)and the string family (viola in this case). Graceful and calming.

Was enjoying the music, then i realized that the pieces were sad. Animes which I have watched so far are sad huh. The retrospective of the animist life- Is it a tinge of sadness? I wonder. But in any case, I enjoyed the music.

When I was a teen, I gave up on piano, because i could not sight read properly. Of course, sight reading can only come with practice, and some inclination. How I wish i can put in the effort again, and play what's up there. Haha. And boy, I have a piano sitting at home.

Ain't I one lucky bird? :)

If you are happy and you know it draw something

The busy days are back!!! YoooHoooo....Feel the adrenaline rush, and the composure amidst breath breaking deadlines, and the mad rush...complete the course with complains...I am at the top of the world....(The glass is always half full)

O well, i guess i shouldnt be complaining right. But i am really like garang guni like tt. No, i should say i am i garang guni's garang guni's garang guni...hurhur.

But nevermind, let me be optimistic.....If i were to paint a picture,

I would draw a bee, with a smilely face, smelling a pretty flower.
The sun is soft, the winds are cool, the air is full of flowers' whiff.

Weekend in a nutshell

Let me recall how I tried to pack too many things into one day:

Friday, Eve of V day: Went for lunch with fellow colleagues who are also graduates at Brewerkz, (and tried a few sips of yucky beer). Went to collect and buy another ticket. And Went swimming after that, but gave up because there were too many people.

Fri- Sat: Movie at 12mn on V Day...falling sick on saturday... And a half baked V day dinner on a roller coaster ride.

Sunday: Recuperation, Digesting one week's worth of news, and it's already 6.50pm. Had a nice chat with Na-Yi-O and Farnie. Read a book, looked up on property and waited for dinner.

Hahaha...looking forward to meeting my funny friends up.

Out of point day:
Monday: Cannot tahan anymore, so i went to see the company doctor. Some ah peh type of doctor, who speaks in a mix of english and teochew. Kinda fun to talk to old doctors like that. Unfortunately, i had no mood to joke with him...He rewarded me with some antibiotics, cold pills And work as per normal at 9.30 am.

Tuesday: Hoping to get better.

At Theme Park we met,
I was with my other half,
An Indian at that.

She finally knew
my passion for the language
Gleefully she told.

To which he replied
Had I asked for his guidance,
Hindi he would teach.

This was a dream which my Indian colleague had of me. Hahaha...

The episode on Absent Mindedness

Recently i have become more and more absent minded. Sigh. The most recent incident happened when i went shopping after work one fine day. As i painstakingly tried out each and every favoured piece of cloth and was about to induge in retail therapy -- I realized i had forgotten to bring my wallet, and hence money.

me: "Oh man! i forgot my wallet!!"
Salesgirl: "don't panic, check again".

=> Confirm did not bring wallet.

Wasnt allowed to reserve, so the red face me went back to office to pick it up, and continued to shop at another place, same outlet. =)
------------------------------------
Then yesterday, i passed my colleague some games for her son. Excitement spiralled to amusement when he realized that I passed him a blank CD.

Colleague's son: "Ma, this CD has ur brain inside. Are you sure u took the right CD?"

This was swiftly followed by a call...

Colleague: "My son has something to tell you..."
Coleague's son: "Thank you for the blank CD."

But i did check it beforehand leh...what happened?!
....

There were many other incidents that showed my blurness, but these are by far the most "nostalgic" event.

Oh well, new CNY resolution: DON'T BE SO BLUR!!!
-------------------------------------
Mood in sometimes in, sometimes out. Pity my friends who have to endure my craziness and moodiness. Hope i did not piss them off.

But for sure, retail therapy is in. I never knew that working demands so much on impression.

Sigh, getting some funny invitations from the people in my office. Anything under the sky. Gotta find a "dan jian pai" for myself man...hahahhaa.
