Fourth Day of CNY (初四)

On our way home @SS2...not very nice leh


Am feeling very very tired right now. Just spent 8 hours in the car today. Traffic was heavy but still moveable thankfully.

Can't really do a proper summary for the happenings in the last few days. But I can say that the 'climax' of this CNY thing has passed.

Despite the usual quibbles, which were rather harmless (i hope), i guess we were still enjoying each other's company.

Dad and mum have to go back to work on Wednesday. A day before I leave for Sydney.

Sisters have also left for work and study. So the remaining two days here would be quite quiet. Not planning any meet ups with friends either as they have also either left the town or haven't been back.

As with most other families, there are some characters within the extended family that I don't really like. But I am glad that I did manage it well this year, by maintaining a friendly smile throughout.

Paternal grandma's lucid moments seem to be diminishing, while maternal grandma suffers from a really weak backbone. Sometime I really wish I could keep them at their current states so that their conditions would not worsen.

The HK guy whom I have spent a week with texted me while I was at my maternal grandma's place. He's back in Sydney. He said he missed me and wanted to see me once I am back. (With Part 1, 2 and 3 One-week love)

Should I see him again? I don't know how to define our relationship.

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...

My Progress So Far

In my previous post, I made a list of the things that I wanted to do, in order for me to start thinking and feeling positively. I have moved into this brand new studio apartment. I have also been cooking up a storm. I could now simply heat up my food when I get home from work, without having to rely on expensive take-away meals. However, I haven't been able to tick off items 3-5 yet. The apartment could be tidier. I have no one to invite over for meals. And lastly, item number 5, I don't think it will ever happen. Couple of weeks ago, after moving in, I texted Jay. I asked if it was possible to have a conversation. I told him I wasn't being emotional, I simply wanted to talk. He declined. And my last text to him was: "I have given you 10 months". Recently, on Facebook, I discovered videos made by a lady called Xandra Ooi which I found highly helpful and inspirational. She would end each video with ".... be happy, always". Her ideas made tota...

Life Too Gay

Secret Santa. Christmas gift 2013 to one of my housemates.  Had a test yesterday.  Went to the nearby Myer department store to look for a gift for the Secret Santa event at my accommodation. Budget was $10. Saw a lot of cute little inventions, most of them averaged around $20. Could have gotten something within budget but it wouldn't be as interesting so I decided to get this little duckling infuser. It's sightly over budget ($15) but it's worth the while because I think he likes it! (I think he still doesn't know that it's from me, he's also gay by the way) Gay much?  I got a box of chocolates, an assortment of mini mars bars, milky way, M&Ms, etc. To be honest, I didn't like it! I have been trying to avoid chocolates, so that I don't have to take in unnecessary calories. My chocolate quota is reserved for really down moments, when I really need to up my mood. But I still put up a smile la, my secret santa must be looking at me when I unw...
