My version of 7 days of CNY...
First of all... HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!! may the Golden Rat brings good luck, prosperous fortune and excellent health for all you guys!:)
This CNY was quite eventful and damn alot of things happening... jialat! Here is a summary lor.. i'm sooooo tired now. totally drained.
CNY eve.. worked late till about 2pm, missed reunion lunch at my maternal uncle's place, so ta bao back to have lunch with S. Later had a damn full steamboat dinner with lots of seafood.. over-ate like mad. S went back to have dinner with his family. My mum actually asked if S wanted to join us for reunion dinner! hmmm... anyway played mj with miak, aeron and stephen after dinner. Lost.
1st Day.. Argh.. woke up zombified liao.. slept about 5 hours... still managed to get out of bed, roll myself to the bathroom, washed up and prepared for work. Yes! Was on duty on 1st day of CNY... nothing terribly new tho... 4 out of past 6 years had to work thru CNY. Will spare you guys the tedious details. Suffice to say I had a freaking bad call... had about 3+ hours of interrupted sleep (after 16 hours non-stop on my feet running around the wards..)
2nd Day... After 48 hours and about 8 hours of sleep... i was quite knackered... but survival mode kicked in.. S asked if I wanted to go play mj, by that time... i was wide awake liao (after my morning tea) so we went to his cousin's place and played MJ with the his aunt and the cousin-in-law. Ended up playing for 12+ hours... I lost.. again. by the time we finished playing, it was about 4am. Went home and collapsed.
3rd Day.. Today Sat. woke up at about 8am to pack and catch my flight to KL to see my paternal grandma who was celebrating her 80th b-day.. By this time it was 72 hours with 12 hours of sleep. It was a wonder i could still get thru customs.. I must have looked downright inhuman by then.. Reached KL... freaking stupid confusing roads and expressways!!!... finallly got to my ah mah's place. slept for 2 hours after the obligatory greet aunts-uncles-cousins-etc etc.. concussed for about 2 hours before waking up for the dinner celebration. There were about 30 pple... so you can imagine the ruckus during dinner. Slept about 12.30am.. probably the earliest in a long time.
4th Day.. Caught the morning flight at 10.30am. Woke up early (6.30am) knowing how bloody inefficient getting from 1 place to another in Malaysia will be... and thank goodness i did. It took 1 hour of waiting before the bus drove off! *pengz* Arrived back in Singapore before lunch. So dead beat. S wondered why I so tired. We had some somen and some of the left-over seafood from the reunion dinner. Then went to visit his mum's place to do some visiting, his mum made mee siam and most of the extended family will be going as well. Went there, S suffered a terrible allergic reaction from the left-over seafood. Had to bring him to the clinic and got the doctor (who happened to be a friend) to give him an injection. Thank goodness he was much better after that. Went back to the mum's place, had mee siam, played with the cousins and aunts then we came home to play MJ with Stephen and Jun... I lost spectacularly again. Slept at about 1am.
5th Day... Work work work... not bad. Had my MRI appointment shifted to an earlier time-slot, so left work earlier... Radiographer told me I had 2 fused spinal vertebrae and 1 extra vertebrae in my lower back.. wow.. i'm a mutant!.. haaha... unfortunately i can't do weird contortionist stuff!.. cut hair, ta bao dinner. Had dinner, watch dvds and we slept.
6th Day (today).. Work work work... not bad day except left my boss to tong the night.. oh well... hope he doesn't feel too bad about it.. had a really nice dinner with S. simple but its really the company that counts... esp since I get to talk to him and we get to laugh, joke and just talk about stuff. Went home, mood shattered by a domestic issue voiced by my mum and S somehow got dragged into it and became unhappy.. Sigh. wat a week... he's now cooling off and quiet... so i'm left to fend for myself now... hahaha.. tat's why i'm writing this fairly pointless entry. Oh well. I so need a hug right now. Think i'm going to bed liao..
goodnite guys!
Oh yar.. have a good valentine's day!
