June 2005 Archives

What a "happening" week i've got... this should be the most "sway" week i ever had in my 23 years of life....

Now i will elaborate the "happenings" 1-by-1....

20th and 21st June 2005
Got into my first ever virgin road accident...
Was travelling home from Jurong after a game of mahjong at a friend's place. So i took the route - PIE->CTE.
I was filtering in from a slip road, in front of me was a nissan sunny. So i stop , wait for the car to move. The car in front moved, so i check back then move off. but the car didnt move much... rather, he just sorted went in front a bit... I cant stop in time, right side of my bike hit his rear left-light compartment and knocked out some of his left sided paintwork. While my own bike's coolant reservoir burst.... and my sideboards' paint came out.
First thing on my mind ---- Die liao! Must compensate a lot of $$$$!!
~~~~~~~~~FAST FORWARD~~~~~~~~~~~~
Next day the guy called me. He was a very kind soul. Usually this kinda lobang, the claimant will surely do a lot of upgrades and ask slaped you with an official receipt for you to pay. But that guy was great! In fact he ask me to choose between a workshop using original parts (more ex) or a workshop using OEM parts (cheaper). As the person who caused him inconvienience, of course I let him choose instead. I feel "paiseh" enough liao, don't really feel i should be the one to choose, so he chose. And remember i used the word "NICE"? He chose the cheaper one! In fact he even msg me some words of wisdom later in the night. I really thank him for that, for making my first accident, a much more pleasant experience then they usually are.
The total for repairs is about $500 dollars. His car and my bike add together. So there goes $500 for the month. =/

22nd June 2005
A day like any other. Supposed to be a working day.
Woke up late in the morning. Stomach aint feeling too well, so i went to the toilet. After that got ready for work.
Arrived outside camp 1/2 hr before work to have lunch. Had an OK lunch. Stomachache again, this time much more painful than before. But no choice, gotta be late liao, so rushed into camp on my bike.
Reach camp, jumped off my bike, and basically clutched at my stomach and ran into camp.
Once inside toilet, basically nothing came out from the supposely "big business"... And the pain became much much more unbearable... till the point that i feel it aint at my stomach anymore, but my groin area instead... next thing i know, i was vomiting and perspiring profusely... I called my sir and requested to report sick - permission granted!
For the next 15 minutes, I basically stucked in the toilet... I cant straighten my back, i cant walk, i cant do anything.... I felt terrible!
Called my sir again and ask him for a ride to the medical centre.
My colleague came to the toilet to find me... i opened the door... first thing he commented on was the way i was sweating... so you can imagine... i was "bathing" with my own perspiration....
I walked much like "The Hunchback of Notre Dam" to his car... every 3 steps i walk.... i stop for a while... it was that bad... walking was a tortune to me...

Upon reaching the medical centre, the MO had 1 look at me, and i was evacuated to TTSH.

Within a span of 3 hours, i was rushed to the Operation theatre and then back at the ward.

The doctor said i had Testicular Torsion*.
*Testicular torsion is the twisting of a testis (testicle) on its connection.
The testes are suspended in the scrotum by a single bundle of tissues that also carries the blood supply to and from the testes. If the testicle rotates, the bundle kinks, and the blood supply is shut off. The resulting situation is an emergency because the testis will die within hours if the blood supply is not restored.

Yup, and to be precise, my "future bloodline" had a timeline of 6 hours to survive. haha. and it did! =)

now the bad thing is , i gotta change my dressing everyday... and trust me... it still hurts...

I am on mc from 22/6 - 6/7. Anyone wanna visit me? Feel free to sms me hor. =P

23rd June 2005
As lots of my friends will know, i would finish writing off my loan next mth.... stupid Diners Club called me to cancel my card....
Why ? Because they learnt that I had this debt that i am gonna clear next month...
It was not because of my inability to payup to diners... if it was, i got nothing to say....
so much for loyalty.... i am gonna condemn Diners Club now.
Anyway their card a lot of place also dun accept, so if i dun have their card? big deal..
And i was on the verge of cancelling my card anyway when I cant use my card months back.
The shop told me diners never pay them $$$. hahaha.
It's alright. What comes around goes around.
But now i got 2k more to pay... shrugs... need to suffer another few more months... but it will be easier to pay this time round. =)

Some other brief points to add.

-Anyone know where to buy this chocolate bar? My sister got it from aboard during her honeymoon! It was damn yummy! Keep a lookout for me k?

-How do I look with my new green-contacts? A friend got a pair for me as it was on promo. comments ?

The old phrase "Right person at the right time" really stands true.

Have you ever wonder how much of a difference the progression of oneself during a courtship can make ?

Like the following scenario :
"A likes B already but B is just treating him/her as a friend ? Things might be possible between them but just that it aint gonna happen now... A starts to be clingy and "sticky"... B is the kind of person that needs the "spark" to be there, but he/she just havent feel the "spark" between them yet..."

So will things turn out for better or for worse? i feel the worst for them....
I feel the need for the 2's rate of progression to be the same.. They can be faster/slower than the other by a bit but i feel the gap is widening for the 2. 1 is playing the waiting game while the other is trying to hasten the speed.

What do you think ?

For me , I dun have anyone in mind right now. Just don't feel the mood for it. hahaha =D

Ya, I found the singer for the song "Bie Shuo Wo De Yan Lei Ni Wu Suo Wei". It's by "Dong Lai Dong Wang".

Saw it in some ktv pub. hehe. wanted to see but forget the starting how to sing le. =P

Hmmm, just got a GREEN-coloured contact lens from a friend. Wonder how it will turn out on me ! hehe.

Xue min- Wats wrong with YB's bike ? how come need overhaul ?

I missed Russell...

Russell was the name i gave my dog. yep. I had a dog. He's a jack russell terrier.
Russell was 3 months old when i bought him for $800 from a shop in serangoon garden.
Still remember i went down to the shop, bought him as he caught my eyes. he was outstanding even in a group of JRTs. still bought a lot of stuffs for him. a basket-bed, vitamin gel, cleaning kits, a home to lock him in when required.

Initially things were kinda bad... he would pee and shit everywhere and anywhere. bite stuffs. any stuff. Russell was kinda handful... very mafan... but thanks to mum, she discipline him (although she's afraid of dogs). how? thru the old way of CANING! haha. yap. and Russell become more guai and smart after that. whenever he see the cane, he will guai guai and stay in his cage. haha.

Russell was quite discipline (to me).
He will not bark early in the morning, nor after 11pm. he seems to understand singapore's law. haha.
And he would wake up with sleepy eyes every morning to see me brush my teeth, at times, he will lick at my foot.. then i will look at him, see wat he doing and he will sit and look back at me with very very ke-lian eyes.

Still remember i stepped on him once... i was going into the toilet and he sorta dash to where my feet was... and gotcha... he cried... but funny thing is, he still ran to me for comfort! hahaha.

oh well... good things always dun last... mummy think he's too much trouble, although i dun feel that way, and that with only me and her, we cant really take care of him (remember ? she scared of dogs..)

thus we gave him away... he cried as he was leaving... really crying.... and hanging on trying to run back... his nails was "screeching" the floor... trying to get back... it was painful... it was sad...

that's my Russell... hope he's still fine now... god bless him...

Was chatting with a friend i knew from Warcraft just now. She got a dog too. sets me thinking about Russell...
