5 more days to home

Spotted @ Kinokuniya Sydney 

5 more days to home!! 

Had lunch with some ex-uni mates today in the City. Had Teriyaki Fish with rice (with two slices of Salmon sashimi, piece of radish, bowl of miso soup, and salad) for $13.80. The teriyaki fish was quite nice, tasted fresh. 

Walked around the city afterwards. There's less people in Sydney compared to last week which is a good thing. 

Before I went home, I went to pee and two guys, one on each end of the row of urinals, were playing with their dicks! I knew things like this were happening but rarely so obvious. I stood next to one of them, quickly finished my business and left. 

With 5 more days to home, the feeling is mixed. 

I miss seeing my family, miss spending time with them. I haven't been in my new house for more than 3 months (cumulatively). And my bedroom is still very new. 

But at the same time, I am worried that I will be worried. 

I have gotten my latest test result (done at 9.5 weeks post that sexual encounter). Theoretically, I know i should be fine. Tests were done at 4,5,6,8 weeks too. 

But it's the 'what-if' that's making me uncomfortable. With things on the the internet. There are so many things that are 'antiviral' on the internet. Things like lemon, grapes, Curcuma Longa (the yellow ginger) are antiviral. When you extract the juices of these things and drip it on the virus, it kills the virus in the test tube. 

But the effect of them on viruses, when you actually eat it, is not very well known. 

And thoughts like what if because I eat these food from time to time, and it reduces the not-to-be-named virus in my body, to a level that cannot be detected by the tests....

What if, the virus is kept at such a low level that antibodies are not being made, hence the tests are still non-reactive? 

I know, with the increased sensitivity of the P24 and antibody components of the test, and number of test of I had, and the constant praying, I shouldn't let myself to be overwhelmed with all these extreme examples of what could go wrong. 

And I have been praying all these while, for forgiveness, for peace. And hopefully that my prayers will be answered. I know they will. And that this trip back home will be a warm, safe, and peaceful one.

  1. What's the worst case that will happen if what you "wish" come true?? Will you still continue to life a quality life even something you don't wish to happen happens?? Probably you should concentrate in things that are really happening now in your life, especially the good things. Minimize your worries, plan for the worst but always hope for the best.

How long is 20 months?

It's been almost a year since I last wrote. So what prompted me to write again? I still haven't gotten over Jay. He left in June 16? Yes, its now March 18. Shocking right,? How can someone, especially someone like me who can be so determined in my career and studies, who is so rational in all other material aspects, fail to marshal the power to put an end to it. I wanted to write, to remind myself how much time has passed, as his second birthday post our breakup is coming up. Last year, I mailed him a gift and a card. There was no reply. He finally agreed to meet over lunch about half a year ago? I texted him on a monthly basis to say hello. He would give me a simple reply if he felt like it. There was this perpetual urge to see him, to talk to him. I took photos of the baked goods I made. I used the 'save' feature on Facebook to save cute or funny videos. I hoped one day I would have the opportunity to show him all these. How foolish. I noticed I did

The "Emergency Contact"

Got a letter from the insurance company this morning, confirming that my conditions are not 'pre-existing'. Glad that they are willing to pay for my colonoscopy and endoscopy (with an 'excess' of $500, which means I would have to pay for the first $500 in a calendar year for any claims I make).  I called the clinic quickly to make an appointment for the procedures. The earliest they have is this Wednesday, so I will be 'admitted' this Wednesday afternoon.  The lady over the phone said that I must arrange for someone to bring me home after the procedure because I will be sedated (as opposed to anaesthesia) and under NSW laws it is a requirement that I go home accompanied.  I can't think of anyone really. No family, no friends, no one, just me alone. I told her I have no one that I can ask. I wondered what she thought, poor kid maybe. Fortunately, there is a specialised cab service that I can hire to escort me home.  Then, there was the pre-admi

Are you the ONE?

One thing being a gay and single is that, I tend to screen for prospective Bf, every single day, every single time a man, in the right age range walks past me. (Though the age range criteria has been relaxed most of the time) It wasn't this 'serious' in the past, my brain wasn't working like this... Now, it's getting a bit excessive sometimes. Stealing glances at random guys on the bus, in the park, around the neighbourhood, in the gym...And these glances are getting more and more 'advanced'. I know perfectly, where to scan, the legs, the butts, the triceps, the forearm, etc. I know the timing. I know where to sit on the bus so that I can have an easy access to the view. And most importantly, I acted as if I didn't care, with the cool face, acted as if I'm the least possible person to steal glances at random guys. Am I perverted? weird? desperate? Maybe it's the desperateness. With guys that I haven't met, I find myself having all the
