Aging..

Was chatting with my mum last nite, well, the topic of our conversation was about the lunch i had with jeff and his parents at her restaurant..She said she could feel a slight tinge of awkwardness when she went over to our table..i gotta keep it confidential cos it isnt something to be known to everyone so no details here..However, from the conversation, i have truly understood how a person with more life experiences can have a better judgement of things..the way they handle matters are definitely more apt than a younger person...this is prolly the reason why we should respect our elders...cos they are wiser than us!!
This is the last week of my slacking..and yet im at home...:( Well, to me, being at home means having to put up with the frequent complaints from my grandparents about their aches, poor health, issues with the maid etc..Well, with my short fuse..i get agitated and angry and talk back rudely and angrily to them...Only after calming down, do i regret my harsh tone i have used on the grandparents that dote on me the most among their grandchildren, the ones that have seen me grown up from a tod till now..sighz..but its really hard to handle when day in day out, u hear they quarrelling over small issues..they complain to you how bored they are..and even abt death to him is better ( grandad)...
Here we are trying to make life comfortable for them..there they are dissatisfied with everything...Aging brings you wrinkles..poor health..degeneration of gray matter...change of character..depression..boredom.abandonment..and unawareness of being long winded and naggy...sighz..
Growing old is scary isnt? Seeing my grandparents, esp my grandad..i only wish for myself to age gracefully...

What Age Do You Act?

You Are 21 Years Old
21

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.
13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.
20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.
30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!
40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

Been sick..

Been sick for almost 2 weeks..luckily i decided to stop eating the medicine prescribed to me by the first doc i visited and consulted another doctor..Guess the antibiotics helped a great deal.hopefully i will have fully recovered by tomorrow..
Was supposed to go for a medical conference at AH this morning at 7.45 am under the instructions of the head dietitian..But then she said she got the dates wrongly..so didnt need to go! Hiakz..happy man..Sighz..i am already hating my attachment..doing work before it has even started...:(
Caught ' Hotel Rwanda' just now..its such a great movie!! Based on a true story and there werent any frills or special effects..what had made it so great was how the movie had portrayed the harshness of reality, the cruelty of discrimination because of colour and how great love for his people can be...Good show man!! I was so touched that i almost cried..but had to hold back my tears cos didnt wan to ruin my make up ! haha..
Got a new couple ring today from Nouveau at PS...but ended up in some argument with him...Because of some disagreement of views and the way we perceived certain things...Aiyah.felt he was being exceptionally annoying and impatient today..

Sudden insomnia

Arrgghh..i went to bed earlier at 2 plus and now i am up again 5 hrs later! And just because i simply cannot get to sleep!! After the chilling session with some new friends at this All Blues pub ( spotted Jaime Teo), i headed home and got ready for bed..Sighz..just as i thought i will be able to get some snooze before waking up at around 8.30am ( actually set my alarm at this time), i found it hard to get to sleep!! Tossed and turned..fell asleep then woke up again after a mins for the whole of the freaking 5 hrs..i gave up and came online to check my mail and to vent my frustruations here!! arrgghhh...I hope i dont fall sicker later in the day man...with this lack of sleep and combination of a sore throat and a cough :(
I hardly suffer from sleepless nights..*TOUCH WOOD*..Only happens when i am anticipating the next day..ie exams, CNY ( haha yeah, when i was much younger), my bday ( same goes when i was younger)...Aiyoh..but why today??!!!
I remembered discussing this with 2 of my friends abt this issue..and what amused me the most is that they will both cry haha cos they are too irritated with the fact that they cant get to sleep!!! Driven with desperation, one of them said she had tried eating flu medicine for the drowsiness LOL, and other methods include watching tv and reading...Oh ya she will also wake her mum up wahahahha..cos she said she is annoyed at the fact that others can sleep yet she can't!!
Hehe..i won't cry cos i cannot sleep..neither will i pop those medicine i have at present though they are really potent esp the ones for my aches..i shan't wake my mum up cos she needs the rest for the long day ahead of her at work..i dont feel like reading the books i borrowed from Pauline..I cant watch tv cos tv 1 is in the living room and will wake my grandparents up ( def not a gd idea), tv 2 is in my mum's rm ( same reason from the above) alamaks..
I am left with nothing to induce sleep man!!!
Sighz nvm lah..half an hr has passed as i am typing this and i am away from my designated waking time by just an hr..shall go and read other blogs...
*wonders why am i not sleepy*

Quiet week..

This week has been a rather quiet one..maybe cos im sick..sighz..sianz..the sudden bout of cold, cough and fever...It has been 2 days since i have stepped out of my hse..so sianzz..all i do is to sleep and eat..and the supposedly non drowsy medicine still has effect on mi! And i feel feeble and drowsy the entire day!! Had to call off the dates i made with mabel yest and today's with kavi, rara, grace and shanz..sighz..
I must get well by tmr!! I dont have time to be sick !! The dreaded 31st of jan is drawing nearer and that means my freedom is also slowly going to end..sobz..

Oh..i must mention i met up with my sec sch eca mates last sunday..At first, i felt a little awkward cos it has been such a long time since i have met up with them..but those feelings i have were in vain cos there werent any sense of awkwardness whatsoever at all!! 10 of us turned up..and all of them except me and yiping are working...sighz..Being with them brought back alot of memories we had as we spent every saturday together having footdrill, first aid and evacuation classes..and then we will gather in the RC room to gossip, change etc..then we will head down to parkway for lunch hahaha.. those were the days huh...and i also rem when i had to go down to the headquarters for the evacuation course every saturday and my mum would complain that i spend wayy too much time in my eca and thus neglecting my studies..hehe..aiyah if her daughter is not bright huh..staying at home every weekend wont fetch gd results also lah...hahaha

Hmm..maybe i should go and search my sec sch photos and reminisce those days..hehe..

Unhappy..

I am unhappy. ..Sighz..Why do people have to use sarcasm in their speech? Does it really make them happier? I am a person that takes speech, words very seriously..sighz..i wish i can take that in my stride rather than being affected by the slightest harshness in words my frens, my family or loved ones say..Its just me.. i cannot help it..i hate this weakness of mine...sighz..

Though the dance floor was really packed, the atmosphere was there!! Haha..everyone was so high when we were finally counting down..Spray cans, crackers, confetti and even ice were used..
As i had promised Ms Cheryl that i will go down to liquid..i made my way there at around 1 am..But of cos..it was awsome there..it was more packed than usual and everyone was so drunk!! Oh yah..this was the first time i drank vodka straight from the bottle!! AHaha..thanks to gerard..Of cos it was really potent..By the time i left to head back to MW, i was quite light headed..but really happy..;p
