This time round faster huh?? Manage to find time to sit down and type…So!!! Decided to update my blog. Although it was just a few days not being in the office… But still… my table seems to be forever messy. Need to clear up my stuffs I guess. Anyway let’s not waste time and get started.
21st May 2008 Wed [Anniversary spent not so anniversary way… But I still Love It]
Woke up at 7+am. Left home for the Primavera 6 which was located at Shenton way at 8.05am. Never like the idea of going town in the morning as traffic is really a killer… But what to do… hai~
Reached the Shenton way around 8.55am. Had some hard time finding the place and ended up reached the room at 9.05am when the class supposed to start at 9am sharp. But to my relief the class hasn’t start yet… But due to my late arrival, I only manage to find a seat at the front row.
The course was quite well conducted I must say. They even served cakes, sweets and hot beverages during tea break. Around 12noon… We were released for lunch and reminded to join back the lesson at 1.15pm… (1hr15min…Cool!!) Went lunch with Siti. As she a Muslim… she was only able to consume food from those store that stated hala which unfortunately… only restaurants….
No choice but went in with her and ordered a fish and chip set lunch >>> $15.90 (Heart pain…) . Not that I am stingy or what, but the amount of $$ spent there… I can eat for 3 days during the course…. PLUS!!! The food wasn’t nice… Called dear to complain after lunch and got a bit angry of her for lying… ( More like hiding some facts) . But eventually we solved it and set a time meeting at grandma’s house after my course.
The course went well for the 1st day except that at some occasion, I accidentally dozed off. We were dismissed around 4pm and I went straight to grandma’s house to meet up with Dear. Had late lunch at grandma’s place… our initial plan was to visit grandma, go Bugis for dinner and then KTV. Changed our mind in the end as firstly, we were full and I don’t like the kind of food she planned for us. 2ndly was because she needed to collect some home bake jelly shot cakes around KK hospital area.
Ended up went over my house to rest and watched some shows before we headed to collect her stuff around 10pm.. Slight drizzle but turned out fine when we enter expressway…
Reached the place and collected from the baker’s father… A nice old man… just that we thought he was an Indian at first when talking over the phone… you know…man makes mistake… hahaha…
Was a bit hungry and went to Maxwell market for late dinner + supper… 1 word for the food there… Sucks!
Went back to grandma house to leave some of the shot cakes which sweet and lovely dear bought for my family before sending her home.
22nd May 2008 Thurs [Heart attack session]
Left home for course around 7.20am.. Had a late night watching the Champion league final. I HATE MANCHESTER UNITED..I HATE RONALDO!!! Chelsea lost in penalties… hai~ will not go into that… Pain in the heart.
Course was alright except I was really tired. Manage to hang on through out the lesson…(I also don’t know how I did it). Went over grandma’s house to visit her as usual. Glad she is getting better and better everyday except that she needed to go back for another operation another 2+weeks time… worry?? Of course I am.
Was exhausted and fell asleep at grandma house. Woke up around 7+pm feeling sweaty all over… decided to take a shower as I was going to meet dear’s mum at 8.30pm. Went to NTUC and got ½ dozen of bird nest before going over… Won’t going into detail about it but the meeting up session turn out ok… only to get my words twisted later on.
Went home watered the plants.. Washed the clothes… boiled the water… burn the jot sticks… showered and chatted with Dear before sleeping… (Tiring… but looking forward to next days meeting dear dear for lunch).
23rd May 2008 Fri [quarrel and quarrel and fine]
Met Dear for lunch at the nearly CBD area. Had chicken rice for 2 with additional eggs for $8. So big different from 1st day of the course right… Some more it was quantity for 2… ok…move on…. Went star buck for dessert b4 walking dear to the MRT. Had an argument again due to her childishness and forever empty promises… She just doesn’t get how I feel from her action… the depart was not a nice 1. Luckily things got better when we met at grandma’s place after my course (Course finish!!! Competed!!). Had lunch as mum cooked… nice I must say… always love mum’s cooking… stayed at grandma house for awhile before heading for home as we agreed to spend some quality time watching movie and so.
Everything turns out well until I decided to meet Wz they all and she insisted that I don’t bring her for supper because of it… Of course it was not true… although I said I will be meeting them at 11.30pm, but ended up 11.45pm I was still with Dear… the reason for bringing her was only because I knew she was too full for anything… which she denied but admit at the end of the day. But the main reason of the quarrel was due to safety.. Won’t be going into that
Was quite disappointed the day ended this way. Jun tried to be mean while I met Wz and Lou… But failed as she was not the kind of girl.. Unlike her friend SAMANTA and KAILING. Was glad to have her as my girl. Decided to go home early although I told her I won’t and apologies to her… Things turn out fine in the end… I love Jun.
24th May 2008 Sun [I sucks]
Almost late for work. Too use to the course timing of 9am I guess. Usual work and chatting session with people in the office… was surprised to hear HW going to apply a house soon… although sometime a bit annoy by her… but too glad she settling down with the guy she love… envy… don’t know when my turn will come…
Left work at 11.30am and went grandma house for lunch. Chatted with grandma and realized she asked sis to pass me some cash which sis didn’t. Found out after that she put my share back as she said I already working… I agreed too and that was what I always told grandma too… But still think she should at least inform me as it was meant for me… But ok la… It was just a small issue.
Met Dear at 3.30pm as she slept till quite late (Of course la… slept at 8+am!!! *angry*). Went over to Cineleisure for sushi buffet. Service very slow… Plus the waiter looks half dead… made my heart also half sank…
After the buffet… Went to level 9 ‘s E2-Max to play Wii. Quite fun as this was the 1st time we both encountered with this console. Jun was quite good with some of the games.. Lost to her in bowling and boxing… only win her in tennis… hai~ I will make a come back next time.!!!! Played for almost 2 hours before headed for movie “Made of Honor”
(Our programs very happening huh??). A comedy love show… Quite nice but Dear dozed of some of the part… (See!!! Slept so Late..).
After the movie wanted to go KTV… K box = too Exp. Party world = no room.
So decided to go for dinner but the food don’t seems to be nice… So changed our mind and decided to go Bedok 85 as very long never been there. Ended up I kept going the wrong direction until I got so pissed off with me myself that we went Wampo market for food instead.
The food there not too bad. Even saw an ex-army mate ( don’t like the guy though). After dinner went to go Holland V for ice cream… Felt a bit giddy when I reached there… Dear Jun was so sweet and wanted to massage for me but I told her it’s ok… Went home around 12mn after sent her home… basically… I don’t really know how I got home as the giddy effect came back.. was glad I made it back safety…
25th May 2008 [Collect my PPE and work OT]
Woke up 6+am this morning… washed up and change for work. Watered the plants and burnt the jot stick. Now a days do feel lonely as I will always be the only 1 at home. No choice as grandma now not feeling well so mum and dad staying over there to look after her and so was sister.
Reached work place at 7.28am ( bought breakfast and paper along the way). Basically slack and watched show the whole day… even till now… did some of my stuff but also not much. Talk to Jun over the phone for awhile B4 started on this entry. Now let see… 6.58pm le… another 4more hrs to go… if I am staying… later still need to pack up my personal equipment as tomorrow going Tuas yard for course. Big bag small bag lo… hai~
Anyway.. will stop the typing here and continue to do some work le… 1 WEEK OF COURSE AND NO WORK!!! YEA!!!!!!!!

Around 6+ left NUH. Before leaving went in ICU to tell grandma… and she response by nodding... was really glad she’s improving everyday.

28th April – 7th May 2 long weeks of worry and relief... PART I
Ok now... once again… 2weeks had passed… since my last entry. Reason?? Due to someone whom is very important to me being hospitalize. Let me do a belief summary of the 2 week.
28th April 2008 Monday [A night of surprise and worries]
Normal working day…the only thing different was that played basketball with WY today after work at the park near my house. Wanted to see where his standard is and see what can be done... quite a fun session. After basketball went home bath b4 sending him home.
Dad and mum were leaving the house too when I was about to left the house with WY also... dad told me grandma was sick (food poisoning) and ask me go down visit her when I am free... Of course... told him I will.
While sending WY back home... drops by shell to pump petrol... saw this Ferrari model size 1:16. It really attracted me toward it. Despite the price tag saying $89.90, I bought the model. COOL!!! I really liked it.
After sending WY home... Went home put down my stuff b4 meeting Wz, Ww and Lou (joined us after work). Around 11+pm… Saw dad’s miss call and called back… Dad said they brought grandma to NUH to see doctor, told me not to worry and reminded me to go home early as next day there’s work. Thinking that it’s just usual normal food poisoning… I continued with Wz they all until 1am+ b4 calling to check if they had left NUH. As dad never answers my call, I assumed they either on the way home or back at grandma’s house. So headed home wash up and get myself ready to bed. Just when I was about to fall asleep around 3am. My hand phone rang... It was cousin Ah Bing. Told me grandma was admitted to ICU (Intensive Care Unit). As soon as the call ended, immediately jumped of my bed to change and rushed down to my bike to NUH.
Was still in shock while riding... keep asking myself “Didn’t they said it’s just food poisoning… how come becoming so serious??” Speeded down along pie at 140km half way bike dies off… but managed to start the engine again and continue heading for HUH.
Went straight to ER after parking my bike. Meet Up with mum and relative who explained to me what happened… My grandma was diagnosed with kidney failure… Critical and need to operate in 2hrs time… Mum told me dad cried earlier on but went back to grandma’s house to rest to alone for awhile. Wanted to call Jun to tell her what happened… but as usual can’t get her as she always off her phone while sleeping. Mind in a mess… just like everyone.
29th April 2008. Tuesday [Fighting back my tears]
Messaged Siti earlier on told her that I might need to take leave due to the situation... but in the end decided to go back and work 1st as still don’t know when the operation will take place as grandma’s blood still not stable yet.
Back at work... didn’t really have the energy as whole night had not sleep. Plus mood really down. Applied 1/2day afternoon leave. While telling Siti the reason… can’t really hold back my tears... Excused myself to the toilet to calm myself down before going back to the office.
Around 10.45am. My phone rang… It was from cousin Yin Jie. Told me come hospital straight as Grandma may not be able to make it and doctor advice all relative to go down and see her… told Siti I have to leave although it not 12noon yet.. Being understand, she told me to go ahead and she will cover for me. Really grateful toward her.
Went to the ICU once I reached. Most of the really were there. Learnt from them that during the operation… they realized a tumor in her large intestine and it was there for quite sometimes but none of use knew it… her kidney were not functioning and her lung and heart were very weak… heart stopped once during the operation. Went in to see her… she was lying on the bed with all the tubes in her. The strong and loud voice grandma. Can’t believe she is in this state now… can’t hold back my tears... went to the toilet and let out my emotional side… keep thinking… Sat when I visited her... she was still alright and talking as normal…but now…
Jun called and talked awhile on the phone... can’t hold back my tears while telling her… she reached in the evening to see grandma after her tuition.
Asked dad if he wanted to let sis know about it. At 1st he rejected the idea as wanted to let her concentrate on her studies… But later in the afternoon changed his mind asked me to get sister to fly back from Aus.
Called sis on her Singtel line but she didn’t pick up. So called Yongxian for her Aus no. and called her… Told her what happened and she can hardly react. Only when called again to inform us she will be taking the night flight and reaches Singapore morning 5+am… Then she started crying… made me cried in the end again… I can really understand how she feel… so far away and hardly anything she can do…She is suppose to be at Gold Coast enjoying her short break...she was looking forward to it so much but now have to cancel due to families…
30th April 2008 Wednesday [A Slight improvement and a Chelsea’s fan night]
Woke up from bed and saw sis. She’s back. She went straight to NUH once touched down in Singapore. Updated me that when she reached hospital… grandma was conscious and able to replied to her by nodding her head and opened her eye... But after that put under drug to stay semi conscious only as she still in pain from the operation. Was glad to hear that... sms-ed Jun to tell her and she was glad for grandma too... Really haven’t been nice to Jun since the incident happened… Really sorry toward her… she was always so nice & tolerance toward me when I was in the mood. Really love her a lot.
Went back to NUH after she unpacked her stuff and really saw much more improvement. Grandma would move her legs at times to find the comfortable position. She now able to hear what we say but not really able to react due to the drugs. Together with Yong Xian, Sis and I… sent Jun to her tuition place before we went to Singapore pools to buy some 4D. Was relief that there’s improvement… so when WW they all asked me out at night to watch soccer... Went home change and took a cab down as Ww will send me home.
Met them around 11.30pm at Cineleisure. Lou went and bought Harold and Kumar movie tickets for 1.30am show… was so puzzled as we supposed to watch soccer at 3am. Only then know kana conned by them to come down… if I knew earlier I would had stay home to watch soccer. Played some LAN games at E2 Max before watching the movie. The movie turned out to be excellent. Had a good time laughing…a good break away from all the tension these few days. After the movie managed to catch the 2nd half of champion league Semi clash between Chelsea Vs Liverpool. Chelsea really played with style... won 3-2 in extra time. After that went home rest for another day.
28th April 2008 Monday [A night of surprise and worries]
Normal working day…the only thing different was that played basketball with WY today after work at the park near my house. Wanted to see where his standard is and see what can be done... quite a fun session. After basketball went home bath b4 sending him home.
Dad and mum were leaving the house too when I was about to left the house with WY also... dad told me grandma was sick (food poisoning) and ask me go down visit her when I am free... Of course... told him I will.
While sending WY back home... drops by shell to pump petrol... saw this Ferrari model size 1:16. It really attracted me toward it. Despite the price tag saying $89.90, I bought the model. COOL!!! I really liked it.
After sending WY home... Went home put down my stuff b4 meeting Wz, Ww and Lou (joined us after work). Around 11+pm… Saw dad’s miss call and called back… Dad said they brought grandma to NUH to see doctor, told me not to worry and reminded me to go home early as next day there’s work. Thinking that it’s just usual normal food poisoning… I continued with Wz they all until 1am+ b4 calling to check if they had left NUH. As dad never answers my call, I assumed they either on the way home or back at grandma’s house. So headed home wash up and get myself ready to bed. Just when I was about to fall asleep around 3am. My hand phone rang... It was cousin Ah Bing. Told me grandma was admitted to ICU (Intensive Care Unit). As soon as the call ended, immediately jumped of my bed to change and rushed down to my bike to NUH.
Was still in shock while riding... keep asking myself “Didn’t they said it’s just food poisoning… how come becoming so serious??” Speeded down along pie at 140km half way bike dies off… but managed to start the engine again and continue heading for HUH.
Went straight to ER after parking my bike. Meet Up with mum and relative who explained to me what happened… My grandma was diagnosed with kidney failure… Critical and need to operate in 2hrs time… Mum told me dad cried earlier on but went back to grandma’s house to rest to alone for awhile. Wanted to call Jun to tell her what happened… but as usual can’t get her as she always off her phone while sleeping. Mind in a mess… just like everyone.
29th April 2008. Tuesday [Fighting back my tears]
Messaged Siti earlier on told her that I might need to take leave due to the situation... but in the end decided to go back and work 1st as still don’t know when the operation will take place as grandma’s blood still not stable yet.
Back at work... didn’t really have the energy as whole night had not sleep. Plus mood really down. Applied 1/2day afternoon leave. While telling Siti the reason… can’t really hold back my tears... Excused myself to the toilet to calm myself down before going back to the office.
Around 10.45am. My phone rang… It was from cousin Yin Jie. Told me come hospital straight as Grandma may not be able to make it and doctor advice all relative to go down and see her… told Siti I have to leave although it not 12noon yet.. Being understand, she told me to go ahead and she will cover for me. Really grateful toward her.
Went to the ICU once I reached. Most of the really were there. Learnt from them that during the operation… they realized a tumor in her large intestine and it was there for quite sometimes but none of use knew it… her kidney were not functioning and her lung and heart were very weak… heart stopped once during the operation. Went in to see her… she was lying on the bed with all the tubes in her. The strong and loud voice grandma. Can’t believe she is in this state now… can’t hold back my tears... went to the toilet and let out my emotional side… keep thinking… Sat when I visited her... she was still alright and talking as normal…but now…
Jun called and talked awhile on the phone... can’t hold back my tears while telling her… she reached in the evening to see grandma after her tuition.
Asked dad if he wanted to let sis know about it. At 1st he rejected the idea as wanted to let her concentrate on her studies… But later in the afternoon changed his mind asked me to get sister to fly back from Aus.
Called sis on her Singtel line but she didn’t pick up. So called Yongxian for her Aus no. and called her… Told her what happened and she can hardly react. Only when called again to inform us she will be taking the night flight and reaches Singapore morning 5+am… Then she started crying… made me cried in the end again… I can really understand how she feel… so far away and hardly anything she can do…She is suppose to be at Gold Coast enjoying her short break...she was looking forward to it so much but now have to cancel due to families…
