I hate my job. As in the job scope. There. I said it. There's no way out of it. I really am tired of it. Good pay be damn. I have enough.

Just now case takes the cake. I ended up feeling so shitty that even going to Kinokuniya and Dorothy Perkins (two of my favourite shops) can't cheer me up at all. The journey home has never been that long before. Had a good cry. Feeling much better. What a way to start a holiday weekend since tomorrow is Vesak Day.

How funny life is. Yesterday I was feeling pretty happy and now I crashed back down to earth.

I shouldn't have opened my mouth. I wasn't supposed to do the case but then I dug my own grave and now... *bangs head against wall*

I have two more months to my bond. I am almost at the brink of my sanity and patience. But if I quit this career totally, I absolutely have no idea what to do. Not to mention, whether I can adjust to a pay cut. So many things to think about when you want to quit your job. You have to think about other things just for the sake of your own happiness.

In more happier news, I finally removed my braces. Yey! I ate McDonalds' McSpicy burger and almost cried with joy (of course not XD ) that I can finally chomp on my burger without getting things stuck to the braces and also most importantly,  I can finally bite my food properly.

Rashes! 2

Hey rashes, please don't start. If not I gotta see Dr Botak again. Geh.

Book!

How apt or coincidental that I bought this book (March was made of Yarn) on the first anniversary of the tsunami that happened to Japan exactly one year ago. I didn't realise it until I watched the documentary about that disaster on National Geographic channel just now. I have an affinity for anything to do with Japan so when the disaster struck, my heart really goes out to the people. I haven't read the book yet though but it's gonna be a good read, I'm sure of it.

That reminds me. I haven't been practicing my Kanji for ages. Urgh.

Teeth!

It's been almost two years since I wore my braces. I could have gotten them off last January but the dentist asked me if there were anything that I was not satisfied with my teeth so I told him that the gaps in my lower front teeth were bothering me so he did some shaving off my front teeth and now the two front-most teeth is just refusing to close! I've been seeing him for a couple of times the past two months and he did some stuff to my teeth but there's always a gap in the two front-most teeth.


The dentist told me that he changed the angle of that bracket or something so that the tooth will move and close the gap. At this stage already, I don't care as long as there is no evident gap seen whenever I open my mouth to talk. Right now, the gap is pretty obvious. Gosh, gigi, close lah dey. I've been seeing the dentist more each month than I meet The Boyfriend (exaggeration, of course). If I have known that the two bottom teeth is being stubborn about this, I should have just shut my mouth and let the dentist removed my braces. I could be wearing retainers already. It's amazing how when it comes to teeth, a few millimeters translate to whether your teeth will look nice or not and that a few millimeters is like a journey of a lifetime for the teeth.

Rashes!

So I told you now I'm having rashes on my body. Well here there are, the three clusters on my body.

1) Upper torso area


2) Left shoulder

3) Left leg (Seems like my poor left leg is getting the most brunt of this maladies)

Funny thing is that both me and my colleague got it. So it's either we got it through what we ate (maybe it's the iced Milo from the shop across the road) or through patient contact. I just hope this won't spread. I'm telling you, it's like I'm having malady after malady this March.

What a Friday

Seriously, all these bugs love me or I really have to spray myself with insect repellant or something. My ankle is still on the road to recovery, my lips have gone down to its normal size but I got bitten by bugs again. I think this time round, the bugs are from my bed. Damn. I gotta do some debugging today. Haha never thought I'm using that term for other things beside my computer.

In other news, I wore my shirt inside out today. This is the second time that it happened to me. My gosh. I really need to check myself in the mirror before I go out of the house. I only realised it when I reached the platform of Kranji MRT because I noticed this girl that always take the same bus as me was looking at me. So I had no choice but to go to the toilet and changed the orientation of my clothes. By that time, because of this and that, I was already running late so I have to take the cab to the CBD area. Cost me 36 bucks. The roads in Singapore are getting bad to worse. Actually, everything about Singapore is getting bad to worse. Sigh. Oh, the cab driver was asking me why I don't want to migrate to another country because of my profession which is recognised in places such UK or Australia. I told him I have family commitments. He told me, "Once you reach your 30s and 40s, you realised that you should have gone overseas when you were younger. Then you'll live to regret it." Sigh...as much as I want to migrate, I need to chalk up more skills and experiences not to mention I really have family commitments to think about as well. Talk is cheap really.

Insects really love me!

Well, what do you know? My foot is getting better judging by this picture


There are still some reddish marks left and it still gives out some twinges of pain but the foot is no longer swollen. I bought Ebene Bio Ray Foot Massage Socks that I wore to sleep at night and also to work yesterday. It helps to reduce the swelling so yay to Ebene!

But now I have another malady; swollen lips caused by ant bite when I was sleeping. Saw those little critters crawling around the plastic bag which contains my medicine that I put beside my bed last night. Swiped them away and I think one or two of them decided to take revenge on me and so, they bit me on my lips.

FRONT VIEW

SIDE VIEW
What a grosteque apprearance! I really look like those poster girl for 'When Plastic Surgery Went Wrong'! My brother had a good laugh and said that I looked like Donatella Versace! Thanks ah bro...Anyway, I was contemplating whether to go and see the doctor. I thought applying hot and cold compress will do the trick but then the upper lips swelled up like the picture above and knowing that the doctor closes at 12pm every Sunday, I quickly rushed down to see him. He prescribe an antihistamine, Chlorpheniramine and a corticosteroid, Dhasolone that will help to reduce the swelling. I hope the swelling will go down by tomorrow if not I have to go to work with a mask on.

Insects really love me, don't they?
