Valentine's Day Blues
It is the right ambience and you hope that it can be like this forever. The candlelight dinner is perfect not because of the excellent meal, but the person who is sitting opposite of you. Valentine's Day is great if only you have a date. It's the particular day that highlights the day that you are still single. It brings that out even more when u walk on the street and realise that couples look at each other lovingly and ladies holding roses. Valentine's Day is boring for singles and u really feel more sucky than usual. Its just not that day for us. V-Day not the day for us, singletons. It's for couples. So I have no idea how I can pass the day seeing couples enjoying their moments together.

Missing my life


I have been stuck to an awfully boring life before the CNY period. Because of my cough, I'm restricted to numerous activities. I'm rotting at home and it could have been worst if not for CNY. I got to go out and talk like I have never talked before. I miss my social life and I really hope that I could get well really soon. Miss drinking, miss the clubs and alcohol, miss the tea house, miss kbox, miss ECP..... so many things I wanna do!

Acute bronchitis


To claim that I'm allergic to student is an overstatement. I'm prone to coughing, since young. But to be in a position of a teacher, just expose myself to more chances of chronic coughing since I need to project my voice. But as a student, i cough for the slightest reasons, drinking from water-cooler, drinking cold drinks and well, you understand my point. I'm just vulnerable to bacteria infection in my upper respiratory tract, which in short URTI. But infection can spread downwards and you call that bronchitis. I'm currently diagnosed with acute bronchitis but don't let the name mislead you into thinking its something really bad. It is.....annoying and heavy coughing but its not as serious as TB or pneumonia. Just coughing cause by bacteria that may take up to 3 to 4 weeks to recover. Yupz, and my doc prescribed me a damn heavy dose of antibiotic which behave like a nuclear warhead. It wipes out every single thing in path and my poor body is gonna take up serious damage from that. But there is no sign that my cough's getting any better. Acute bronchitis is unpleasant in this sense that you can't expect to see yourself improving even if the bacteria's not there anymore. I suppose the inflammation takes a much longer time to recover. Well, I still hope that I can get better and in time for the CNY festive season. Other wise, I will be sitting in a corner drooling at the goodies but can't have a bite of my own. That will be so tantalising..........
