10, 9, 8, 7, 6....
What I think of 2010?
I think the year 2010 was fair.. Really thankful for working with peeps whom I can work well with as a team, to be able to go on a trip with my lovely nieces, bro and SIL, to be enlightened that politics is everywhere and 人心可畏, to have obtained the SIATP membership and to recover from likely dengue.
I wish 2011 will be a happy, healthy and fulfilling year!

劳碌命
明明就能睡迟但我却天天早起 6~7am
明明能睡午觉但我却睡不着
眼睛是累的可是就是不肯关上
想多些休息让自己快点恢复元气
看样子这个过程会很慢了
叹。。没办法。。命贱。。

Deux Mille Onze
2011 is approaching.. New Year Resolutions?! Hmm...
Number 1 on the list ~ Return to office to work and settle whatever is outstanding so that the peak period will be manageable and I won't end up in a state of frenzy which is definitely gonna be devastating to my health!
The rest should follow shortly...
This always happens..
After this unfortunate incident, I am now more determined to tidy and clean up our house thoroughly and throw out things that I continuously buy to pile up our house since I have space! It is so wrong!
It's really a nightmare to have to tidy and throw out stuffs and clean the dust! And for all you know, I may find creepy crawlers as I clean which I am scared!
I am bent on making sure that there is no chance for mosquitoes to breed in my house! I didn't know a bite from a mosquito can be so deadly! Those ppl with kids, dengue is serious!!!! I repeat, serious!
Anyways, lazy me decided it's time to spend some money and find someone to do the chores for our house on a part time basis soon! I need help to sort and throw out and clean up things and I know I cannot do it on my own.. I need help!
I used to think it is manageable to clean the house on our own since it's just the two of us and there aren't many things to settle... but after 6 years and with ill disciplined me.. sigh... So my thinking slowly changed to this..
Since it's just the two of us, it's really not that important to do the chores like in the past! It's as if I think our lives are not worth looking after anymore but I'm so wrong! We should nonetheless not have to suffer any ailments unnecessarily if we can avoid! Furthermore, rest is now of more importance to us given our hectic lifestyle! So once we have time, doing the chores is not on our mind but REST!
So we must get external help! Any good recommendations?
Why do we wait till something happens and then start to act? It may not be exactly related to the incident on hand but when you think alot, you start to link up everything! Humans.. *roll eyes*
DINKs
When you are sick and you are at home
Wanna drink water but no water so tap water is the best choice
Temperature of tap water made the nauseous DINK puke
Wanna have a cup of warm beverage but have no hot water
It's gotta be warm to feed a super hungry DINK immediately but no water at room temperature, next best choice, tap water
Once you boil water, you only have hot water
To wait for the water to cool, super hungry DINK would be famished!
Wanna have some proper warm food but need to cook yet no energy to monitor cooking
Waiting for the food to be cooked and cool can be torturous for a famished DINK
Famished and nauseous DINK decided to walk over to mum's but once out of the house, started to puke again..
Didn't eat anything but puked non-stop.. really CRAZY.. but I'm sure I'm pretty much emptied..
Felt like eating this or that and so dar dar went to buy..
After taking a bite, wifey said no appetite.. he finishes it..
This process keeps repeating.. wifey feels bad about wasting food but simply refuse to down the food still..
Some said I'm pregnant but I'm so sure I'm not.. cos if I am, I will give birth to baby pupa cos Mr Mosquito "impregnated" me.. haha.. how gross!
Well, at least now I know how it feels like to be pregnant.. poor ladies.. that feeling really really sucks big time!.. haha..
Staying over at my mum's brought back fond memories and made me realised how wonderful it is.. all the above.. SOLVED! And it's even better cos towels will be washed daily, clothes too and they get to see the sun, cut fruits, house is clean, mum gets company to chit chat, I get to chat with Calz, watched TVB shows together with mum and Calz, laughter and tears... reminds me of those days when we stayed at home to watch "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" together! Calz was like so young and cute! Haha...
A "break" not the way I wanted
Is it really payback time?
Recently, vomitted due to a rotten egg...
Now, vomitted like crazy due to likely dengue...
I seldom vomit, I only burp food, but this is the "BEST"...
Vomit whatever I try to eat or drink, didn't eat much yet have a lot to vomit..
Digestive system already not very good, with this two unexpected "attacks", seriously brought the functions down further and it's now more sensitive than ever.. :(..
Trouble from the mouth...
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Torture followed by sweet recovery under mum's care while I'm on hospitalization leave now till 31 Dec
Had planned to shuttle to and fro my mum's everyday so that I will have proper meals and sufficient warm water to drink..
However, couldn't return home to rest on Sunday as I started to vomit again. So decided to stay at my mum's throughout instead..
Dar went home to grab some necessities and stayed over with me at my mum's... so sweet..
Had cut fruits everyday and being able to see my sweet and lovely nieces sure helped me to recover too.. :)... Yippie!
Unforgettable
17 Dec
Enjoyable day out with friends ended on a sad note with Mr High Fever 39, popped panadols
18 Dec
Last French lesson with classmates and went home to nurse Mr High Fever, popped panadols
Curry Fish Head dinner with family but ended up vomitting and did not eat much, no appetite
Went home, popped panadols, no appetite
Visit to the doctor
19 - 21 Dec
Popped pills, sponged non-stop through the night and no appetite, nauseous always
Mr High Fever is still haunting me!
Visited the doctor 1-2 times
It's crazy and I'm almost going crazy!
Throwing tantrums is not going to help and I have zero energy as I can't take no food down..
Patient me and perseverance from dar kept me going..
Bent on getting well but seriously can't eat..
22 Dec
Still not looking good
Visited the doc and decided to go SGH A&E
Dar accompanied me to A&E
Blood test was finally done, blood platelets is low! White blood cells was not favourable too..
Had to repeat blood test and if it continues to decrease, to be warded..
23 to 25 Dec
True enough, blood platelets decreased! Had to be warded for observation!
Faced my worst fears! To be on the DRIP!!!!!!! OUCH!!!!!!
Couldn't join in for any of the Xmas celebrations planned with family and friends! DEPRESSED....
But what to do, health is more important...
Luckily, dar accompanied me throughout and we watched TVB show together which got my mind off things..
So blood test everyday, poke right hand then poke left hand then right hand again, vice versa..
Realised that there are many people who care for me from FB and visitors..
My boss came too, was shocked.. :)..
Felt bad not being able to check any work, reply or forward emails..
Could only stay in bed and hope my colleagues have the initiative to settle while I am down and out..
Couldn't stay sober and always in nauseous mode..
Always hungry but couldn't eat or drink at all..
Vomitted and LS..
One word, TORTUROUS!
Finally, platelet count was on a upward trend so was discharged to recuperate at home but to repeat blood tests at polyclinic wef 27 Dec till platelet count was normal, meantime to be careful not to injure myself lest I bleed to death since blood wouldn't clot.. hehe.. just kidding.. ;p..
Third holiday for the (financial) year
Rejuvenation in Bali! We booked a 3D2N pool villa stay at The Amala, Bali to rest and relax!
Day 1
Boarded plane~Vroom!~Set foot in Bali!~Checked into the Villa! Nice villa but we had higher expectation for the pool but it was good enough for 2-3 strokes only so we were like.."uh-huh".. We think too much! Haha.. It only makes sense to be that big for a Villa..~ Settled in~Walked-about the Villa~Splish-Splash, took a mini swim in the pool~Showered and waited for our candle-light dinner to be served in the Villa!~Watched TVB show before turning in for the night..
Day 2
Wakey-wakey~Bfast in Villa~Watched TVB show~Strolled to the beach, nice beach with powerful waves, unfortunately we weren't in the right attire, otherwise I would have swam in the sea and break those strong waves~Splish-Splash in our pool instead~Showered and went for our pampering massage for 2h15mins, heavenly!~Watched TVB show~Changed and boarded our pre-arranged transport to a Seafood restaurant for our Seafood dinner by the beach, cool!~Returned to our villa to find a nice flower bath prepared for us with flower petals spreaded and mini candles laid all over the bathtub, so sweet!~Watched TVB show and Zzzzz...
Day 3
Wakey-wakey~Bfast in villa, we practically tried everything off the breakfast menu over the two days, yummy! Bali can cook! Thumbs up!~Splish-Splash~Showered and watched TVB show till time to check out and head to the airport~Walked-about the airport and watched TVB show whenever we had the chance~Finished the show that night in Singapore~Perfect!
We really felt rejuvenated after this holiday!
I feel that Bali is a very service oriented country and the Balinese peeps have this really friendly disposition which is so apt! They are always so hospitable! I really like them.. Pssst.. some of the hospitable staff were pretty handsome leh..
Interesting things that we found out through chit-chat sessions with the hospitable staff from the Villa...
Did you know that they had to pay Rp1.3million to an agency in order to come to Singapore to work in the hospitality industry?
Did you know the kiddos in Bali can start to learn and obtain the bike license when they are 13 years old? Shuttling around Bali can be quite difficult so I think I should learn bike license so that the next time I visit Bali, I can simply rent a bike..
I think if it weren't so difficult for them to come to Singapore to work, I'm sure they will have a bright future here.. :)..
This marks the end of our holiday for the start of this (financial) year! But....

Second holiday for the (financial) year
Took advantage of the opportunity to attend my Company's Dinner & Dance at MBS and booked a 2 nights stay! Staycation @ MBS, my second holiday!
Day 1
Checked in~Was given a suite with lousy view but it was better than nothing~Walked around the hotel abit then almost time to get ready for the D&D~Dinner ended~After I was back in the room, we ordered room service as we were abit hungry, ordered club sandwich with hot chocolate~then ZZzzZzz thereafter
Day 2
Wakey-wakey~Gym workout~Showered and went for brunch at Marina Bay Sands Shoppes then checked out the shopping arcade~Swimming~Napped~Dinner~Took a dip in the bathtub~then zzZZzz
Day 3
Wakey-wakey~Ordered room service for our breakfast~Swam in the infinity pool, rephrased, dipped in the infinity pool~Napped~Checked out at 1pm (Yes, late checkout!.. yippie!)..
The room was really nice and the view at the infinity pool is breath-taking! The architect for this hotel is really something and the feel created up there is cool.. I'd love to stay there again but maybe when MBS is really ready! We gathered that they opened in a rush, with the makeshift gym facilities (we were disappointed with that), the makeshift eateries at the shopping arcade and ongoing construction at the shopping arcade! One thing that's really UP, the CASINO and the many, many ATMs! Haha..
