Things happen for reason
The past few weeks haven't exactly been the best ever... Started with my bicycle accident... Flew off my bicycle 2 saturdays ago... Had really bad abrasions and a torn ligament in my right wrist... Then the week went by like routine... It was so so robotic... Then at Zouk my little toe got kicked at like no one business... Kinda bruised now... Haiz... Oh well... Then had cancel dinner with mum n dad on sat cuz they had something on...Then sunday came... Thought it'd be better... but no... My injuries started to increase... LOL...
Went for blood donation at St Anne's Church... The person who started the line couldn't find the vein!!! She tightened the blood pressure cuff and told me to squeeze the stress ball for a super long time and she whacked the site for God knows how long... Finally I looked at her and asked," you can't find the vein right?" Guess what her reply was... "Yes... Your veins are very small..." Here's the best part... I told her where the needle was placed during my last donation... And she just jabbed the needle in there!!! She got it started anyway... But after she put the needle in the first time, blood flowed for a bit and stopped!!!!! She then withdrew a bit of the needle and started shifting it around... While in my arm!! I was like "what the..." Anyway she finally got it and the blood flowed... Ultra slowly... Then this other HSA person came and started fiddling with the bag... She came back a 2nd time and realised (quite late actually) that no blood was going in!!! She went to tell the person who started the line and after some consultation, removed the needle... Immediately after that, 3 people attanded to me... One got the needle out, another got an ice pack and placed it over the site of entry and the last was just watching me all the time!!!! I just somehow knew something wasn't right... So I asked one of them if my vein collasped... She didn't want to give me a straight forward answer!!! So basically I guess it was BINGO!!!!! Well after that I came out with a super bruised left arm... And that wasn't all... Later that afternoon, Jillian's bag accidently poked my abrasion!!! It hurt like F***!!!!! I literally screamed!!! But thank God the wound didn't open...Maybe because of the dressing... Well Sunday came and went... Best part of that whole week was when Kevin dropped by my place even though he was super tired 'cause he was working super long hours for the past two weeks without proper rest - thanks for making the effort bao bei... :)... Well I wanted to pass him something... But that brief meeting really made the week a better one... :)...
Yesterday was worse... Had a call from Divya's mum about tuition... The thought of it really makes my blood boil... And I guess somethings are just better left unsaid... So that was that... Haiz... Oh well...
Woke up this morning... Hoping it would be better... But no... Well Shu and I went to Macritchie to run... I reached early... But since the time I left the house, I had a very queasy feeling... And while in the bus, I felt my tummy churning... That was that... The moment I reached Macritchie, I ran straight for the ladies... I thought it was the usual morning thing... But no... It turned out to bethe start of an impending diarrhoea... So anyway, we still ran... But after 1.5km of up and down slopes, I was totally gone... so bascially we just walked the rest of the way... To the treetop trail and back... On the way back, I felt the feeling coming on AGAIN!!!! Damn shitty sia... Thank God for SICC... So basically halfway in the forest, we turned around and I sprinted back to SICC's toilet... Hahaz... It was a total relief after that... But that wasn't the end... When I got home, that whole feeling started again... Sigh... So everything today had to be cancelled... Sigh... Oh well... Shit happens... But then again, I lost the tummy... Hahaz... But how long it's gonna stay that way, I don't know... LOL...
And for the record, Coke Light Rocks!!!! Hahaz...
