So much drama.
My dad finally returned from the hospital today from a surgery to remove this accumulation of phlegm on his lungs which was causing breathing difficulty. Needless to say, it caused a lot of stress for my family. I never knew how hard it is when a family member gets hospitalised and you're visiting them almost every day and wondering when they're going to get better and end the horrible torture of having to go to the hospital everyday. Seriously, this has only further reinforced my stand on not smoking, drinking or becoming fat.
On another note, SGH > NUH. Like Juliet said, NUH's motto should be "We Suck".
I think this whole experience caused us to get closer as a family, if only by a little. I never speak to my dad much in general but today I found myself helping him wear his blood circulation socks and actually speaking to him like someone would speak to his dad - Like that's a lot of drama in itself. Still, despite it all, I know I'll never have the conventional relationships most sons have with their dads and I'm ok with that. Always have been.
Lastly, if I could not go to school, I totally would. I can't imagine NOT working at this point in my life; I'll just die. I really just want to work and make money so I can buy useless stuff with it.
