it seems sick week has not passed yet. (sad) this time it's granny. she fell at around 6 something AM on saturday. i was sleeping in the hall so i heard her fall. um, anyway long story short, she was in GRRREAT pain last night, at her left hip, so my parents carried her down in her wheelchair and sent her to SGH by cab. she must've looked so grand in her sedan-like chair. that was around 9pm. she got some xrays done amongst other tests, and then was warded. parents came home at 2+ AM. poor souls were exhausted, and mom didn't go to work today. they went to see her just now.

brain not really working. since that last sentence i've been sitting here for like, 10 mins staring into the screen. i shall go do something more constructive.

I AM RECOVEREDDDDDD! well, in the process, but i'm rejoicing exceedingly because my dear throat is pain freeee! i really appreciate and will take care of my good, healthy throat now. umm, i'm still coughing up phlegm-balls but that still beats throat boils, so, thank God people! it is good to be healthy.

woke up today and my dad told me to stay home instead of going to church cause i hardly slept during the night. both of us were coughing that itchy, unstoppable headache-causing cough the entire night through.. but i didn't really feel tired, so i decided to go. i told dad and mom not to go.. and daddy stumbled back into his bed mumbling, "... yah, i cannot make it one... * zzzzzzz *." haha. mommy was tired to cause daddy woke her up with his coughing. poor things..

was alright at church. i was well prepared with my jacket! had one nasty cough attack which made me listen to the sermon from behind the curtain, but i ended up dozing off while leaning on the notice board. (AIYOYOOOOH, tsk. embarrassingahhhh~) to everyone who passed by and laughed at me, i didn't do it purposely okay. blame it on the medicine. anyways, had to cancel meeting with sher. (i'm so sad about that..) came back for lunch. napped for very long and enjoyed my last day of lelexation before i gotta busy with school work tomorrow, NOOOOOOOOH!

thank you everybody, nice people, for your KIIIIND words of love. i think they helped me get better faster. positive energy lah, you know? (pfft)

jacob is in the jungles of tekong now, GAH ! jacob fighting!

happy belated birthday daphne! i hope you got my card.

AHJAH~

now daddy's down. pfft.. chain chain chainnnn~ chain of sick people! (the.. song.. nevermind.) got up at dunno what time today and found daddy zee-ing soundly. made breakfast for granny and me and cleaned up the house. i keep going to the mirror to see my throat-boils. (that's what i shall call them.) there's one on the right side of my poor throat that hurts the most, but generally i'm feeling better! now is the purging stage, where the yucky phlegm and other dead germs come out. yeah~

i hope i get totally well by sunday. i have really loud, uncontrollable cough spasms. can't imagine myself all nicely dressed and coughing and tearing like a mad person, tsk, no no cannot.

thanks for your cheers people! wah, it feels good to be loved. :D

went to the polyclinic today and waited for like forever (i know, that's just how it is there.). i didn't bounce back from my flu as i usually do within two or three days, but instead it got worse. maybe it's a sign of age. *gasps* anyway the main problem is my throat which is affecting my entire head. self-medicated for the past few days but it didn't work. there's pus in my throat, like, big boils or ulcers that HURT LIKE WHAT LAH, and i can't sleep because it's so painfullllll. so that affected my nose and ears and all, and my voice sounds really funny, like it's floating at the top of my head. (the nasallest of nasal.) AH this is the worst flu ever! pus in my throat leh, PUS! tim got a shock when he saw it. mom got mad when i told her i thought i had throat cancer. (haha. parents hate those jokes.) got my antibiotics and a whole bag of other meds, so wish me a quick recovery! for now i shall have to put up with the pain. :(

granny is singing. i haven't been bothered by her in the night lately because i've been CAMPING outside for the past week! it's so nice sleeping in the hall. so spacious compared to my wobbly loft bed.

I CAUGHT THE FLUUUUUUUUUUUU, noooooooooo! i feel horrible today. feel like there's a big wound in my throat and a medicine ball in my head. my nose is all clogged with grosse stuff too. yep, it's the flu.

gonna go eat now.

aw, roy carrying micah. she's a big bright baby with three little teeth now. she'll grow up with this karate bodyguard by her side. :)marc wearing roy's shoes. tsk, funny lah. they looked much more ridiculous in real life than in the pic. ha~

school school work work. aza!

tim and mom have been sick. tim caught the flu and has been resting since thursday, mom had bad migrane since thursday but only took friday MC. they're much better now though. :)

today i went for teens club all alonely. the lesson was KEEP THYSELF PURE. valuable lesson, hard lesson too. thank God for BJ who emphasizes these important principles, lesson after lesson, sin sanctification heart issues. it's true, everything begins in the heart. i think some of us make the mistake of conforming outwardly but still holding on to our own views. guess that's missing the point. anyways BJ touched a littttle on BGR here and there, so i think we were all paying closer attention than usual. hee..
went to chongpang for lunch with the alamons and kahyue, but KY da bao-ed home for her family. gave up on our planned ice kachang because we were too full. walked around and i bought some stuff for my cards.
choir today was so FUNNY (not normal) ! some of us were in the laughing mood. apparently my face makes people laugh. (tsk) haha~ i like choir to be like that. =)

geil i will pay you back for the IL tea tomorrow. remind me pls!

sewed a singlet for bran today! i'm bad at sewing because i wanna do it really fast so it's half torn already. partially because bran started chewing it in hate after i took it off of him. hah.

VBS! my class photo. i don't look like a teacher do i? :(

korean thirsty hippo.

*munch munch*

i love chocopie~

steamboat after shopping. daddy bought the induction heater thing cause it saves money. and it's safer.

this was on labor day! bunch of ninjas. or breakdancers.

while i was doing my school work today my mom saw an ad in the papers about becoming a language teacher for special needs kids. i remember aunty susan (sher's mom) telling me once that i could be a speech therapist. wonder why i've never really thought about studying that. taking it into serious consideration now. =) you could say i've been finding an alternative to studying art. somehow i just don't think that's all i'm meant to do, but that's just what i'm good at and what i reallly enjoy. this whole future, next-phase-of-life thing is pretty confusing and quite scary, but anyway, i'm just praying about it. everybody's kicking up a big fuss about my ambition and plans. some people believe in me and others are just blatantly skeptical (about whether i can make it academically and socially).

people's view of me can be really frustrating sometimes. they see me and treat me like a really swa ku person who "doesn't know what real life is like" and "is not well-rounded". yes, some people have said that to my face. got alot more remarks also lah.. too many to say. fortunately, unlike ALOT of other homeschoolers, i have decided not to feed the urge to prove myself, which is why when i get remarks like that i just smile. i don't have to prove myself cool or street-wise. that's kind of egoistic. haha. when i was youngER i did lah, must make myself look athletic (which is why i started the whole stupid muscle thing and now my arms are huge) and i must be very charismatic and i must talk with the teen twang and must do this and that. thank God lah, i grew up a little. :D i find it easier to be myself now, and i like having the good girl aura.

anyway, how'd i veer to such a weird subject? i'm considering studying something to do with special needs kids. :) that's all i originally wanted to say. heh.

my, like, 7th journal is finishing (pages) and i'm gonna get a new one. my journal very funny one.. it's like a multipurpose book. i write everything in it, study notes, daily thoughts, angry letters, sermon notes, art ideas, (dumb) poems, short stories, etc, so it's a super top secret book, cause it's basically my brain in ink on paper. but now i'm gonna compile all my poems in one book. maybe it'd be finished by the time i'm.. 80. or 90. HAH.

i'm saving up for korean lessons. KEE!
