18+G

I know today is Friday, and I'm supposed to write about something happy, jolly, and uplifting since TGIF. Instead, I'm going to write something gross and possibly could make you nauseous. So, for those who have weak stomach, mmmm, maybe it's time to stop reading.

I had been a contact lens wearer since 2000, and continued until now. But I have no idea why my eyes have been acting very rebellious against me since I came back here. To quote history, I've had conjunctivitis and two Hordelom since then. I wonder if it's because they can't see hot men walking by anymore? Hehehehe. I sure hope that's not the reason.

I never had any surgery done (thankfully), until I had my Hordelom minor surgery. Hordelom is the clinical term for commonly known as stye or in malay, ketumbit. The old people say, you'll get ketumbit when you peep people or in other words, watch something that you shouldn't have. I guess now it's out there that I am a peeping tom. Hehehehe... The home remedy by old people is to wear a black string on one of your fingers, or rub gold on your eye.

That didn't really work out for me. So, I had two eye surgery done. First, the doctor would inject a local anesthesia on your eyelid, depending where the stye is. The moment he injects, you can actually feel like acid going through your eye area. It's that painful. For both times, I couldn't help but cried because it was painful. The worse thing is that you can actually see the doctor doing it on your eye because you have to keep your eye open during the entire process.

After 10 to 15 minutes, once the LA kicked in, the dr put a device on your eyelid to keep it opened while he digged up the good stuff. When he has the access, he cut through the affected area, and did the drainage (Warning:Do not click if you have weak stomach) with small little scoop-like equipment. During this, there would be red blood oozing out of your eyelid. This part wasn't that painful, just uncomfortable and gross. Thankfully, I had someone who's willing to hold my hand after the whole gruesome process :)

When the whole thing is cleaned up, you'll have the pirates bandage on your eye. So that's kinda cool.



Love your eyes!!!

rules and regulations...

I don't know why certain workplace still think women wearing pants/shirt are inappropriate or informal. If women can wear shirt and skimpy skirt, why are pants wrong? Maybe they're afraid the guys would feel emasculated or threatened by the world of alpha-female taking over them. Then, its not really the women's problem, isn't it?

When I first came back to KK, I was so surprised by the amount of aggressive, ruthless, impatient drivers on the road. But after two years under the bright sun of malaysia, I've become one of them! Hahahaha.. I figured that's the way to survive around here. Btw, driving with a speed of 60km/hr on a monday morning is considered NOT OK. Some people don't have the time to drive with a la....la...la..la... music in our head, we have to get to work, OK!!! Our punch card is waiting!

With my new office hour, I have to get to the office precisely before 8am. Even when I left at 730am from home, there's guarantee that I would reach office on time. Previously, I used to leave home at 8am and get to reach the office before 830am, and my old office is 5 kms away than my current one! Sometimes when I feel like I didn't have enough time or suddenly the traffic became unbelievable I would cheat on the road (cut through from the unused railway track) to get to my office sooner. It's horrible to be doing crime on a bright daylight. Of course while doing the "unlawful act", I had the thought of somebody's taking my picture, or maybe the police could be there and I'll be caught red-handed. Opssss....

Last night, I had another session of self defense class. I learn how to kick, elbow punch and some escape strategies. Oh and we got a preview of next week class, how to escape when a guy is lying on top of you (sexual assault). The techniques that he showed are from Jujutsu, basically you don't have to use your strength, just use your body weight to counter the guy. And from my preview, if the technique is done correctly on a real guy, I can see the guy would go home with a broken arm, twisted wrist, and strained neck instead of the big "O".

I'm off to get some lunch and coffee and be a lawful citizen..

flowers flowers everywhere....

various thoughts...

I need to keep my schedule book filled out so that I won't be out of my mind soon... I get bored with routine fast. So, I'm guessing I am in the category of non-committed person (if there is even such thing). Or maybe this could be adult ADD huh? I was thinking about various things, one of them is about how something can turn into sour/lukewarm/cold. How do you know when to call it quit or to keep going?

My friend ms Lana is 7 months preggie. I still can't believe how fast time flies... While I am at home doing god knows what all these while, lana is growing a human inside of her. I am excited to see how he(?) looks like :) Lana, are you having a baby shower soon?

Few friends from college are getting hitched this year. It makes me think of my primary school crush. I wonder if he is still cute :p
