Sick..........................................

Sigh... All because of a slight choke on a cup of water... It all happened on Tuesday night when I was drinking a cup of water. I choked slightly on it and I could feel a small amount of water in the back of my throat, on the upper larynx. I tried coughing, sucking it in and all methods to get it out, but all ended up in vain. The irritation caused me a sleepless night with plenty of tissue papers used to clear my irritation.

Wednesday at work, my nose was practically dripping with fluids. Yes, it was like a loose tap with dripping water. It is that bad... The worst part came when I had to attend a briefing at SP. The room was cruelly cold and I didn't had my jacket with me. To add salt to the wound, the briefing was all about everything I already know... Waste of my precious time... I could have done a run of BIAcore with the 3 hours! By the time the briefing ended, I knew I am in for a worser time at night.

Thankfully, Christelle's parents came to pick her up from work due to her injured foot, so Bernard and I hitched a ride back to Bedok. I took bus 21 home from there and it proved to be a disturbing trip. I went to the upper deck of the bus and along came a Chinese guy who was blasting a Chinese song out loud from his handphone. Already at the back of the upper deck was a group of Malays blasting their songs as well. The entire upper deck was a battle between the Chinese and the Malays on whose handphones can blast the loudest music. Childish and immature people... Perhaps Singapore should implement a penalty on those whose music from their MP3 players or handphones are disturbing those around them. I saw an article this year on USA imposing a penalty on those who turned their MP3 players volume so loud that those beside them can hear it. If Singapore is to impose this penalty, I am sure the government can earn a substantial amount from these penalties...

Ok, back home and I felt even worse. I was feeling warm a moment ago and the next, I can be freezing like hell... Off to the doctor I went. Got a one-day MC. So today, I stayed home and took my medications on time. The medications made me drowsy all day. I was practically sleeping on and off. But the worst thing is, I don't get enough quality rest. Either the toddler my mum was babysitting was making so much noise, or the drilling sound my dad made to install a ledge in the bathroom. Sigh...

What a day to choose to be on MC. How I wish I can be back at work, staying in the Chemical Store and running my BIAcore machine...

Ok, these are some of the photographs taken on my youngest sister's 22nd birthday... Indulgz at Bugis was the restaurant which provided the sumptuous dinner... After diner, it was desserts at Ah Qiu just a few streets away...

!!! ORGASM !!!

*** 免死金牌 ***

YES!!! I got a 免死金牌 from the Grand Dowager herself today. Hahahaha~ As discussed, the Dowager and Emperor is trying to force a decree on me to remove my "singlehood". They even sought the help of the 2nd and 3rd Princesses to reinforce this decree and to add pressure on me.

Luckily today, I went on a trip with the Grand Dowager, Dowager and the 2 princesses out of the palace. The Grand Dowager must have caught some wind of the ridiculous decree. When the Dowager and 2 princesses were away, the Grand Dowager asked if I was pressured into accepting the decree. I replied her that the Emperor, Dowager and princesses are all out of their mind to even suggest such a decree. I haven't got time to deal with this decree and the Grand Dowager agreed with me. She said that I'll be away to a foreign land soon, so no point removing my "singlehood" status. It may only add more misery for me in the future. Taking the opportunity to give myself some form of assurance, I told her that if I am forced to accept this decree, I'd rather move out of the palace and be a commoner. At least I get the freedom I want as a commoner. I can forsake riches and royalties to free myself from the decree.

I told her that the Emperor, Dowager and princesses ought to be reprimanded for their foolish idea to even try to force the decree on me. As the Royal Prince, how can I succumb to such ridiculous decree? I asked the Grand Dowager for her advise and she agreed that I should be given certain freedom and authority. Hence, I was given the 免死金牌!!! Hahaha~

The trip today is not wasted... At least I managed to protect myself from that decree to have my status removed. The 免死金牌 shall stand as long as the Grand Dowager is around to endorse it. Hahahaha~ What a happy day!!!

Same Old Question & Same Old Reply

Went back to lab today to do my trial on my precious Biacore X machine. Sounds cool, right? Trust me, it's not really as cool as you think it might be. This little baby of mine costs as much as a 3-room HDB flat. Incredible...

Went to Bugis with my mum and sis for window shopping and diner. I got popped the same old question again. Or rather, in another different form. My sis told me she's got a friend to introduce to me. I think she already planned it beforehand with my mum. My mum was telling me that my sis' friend saw me at her company's Family Day at Sentosa last month. This is not yet the shocking part. The shocking part is, my sis told me her friend found me very 'man'. Yah right, as if I'll believe that. Nice excuse and nice try, but no thanks. I haven't got the time for such things.

My mum told me to try to be friends first and see how things go. I refused and told her I haven't got time. I got my jogging schedule every Tuesday and Thursday, badminton on Wednesday and soccer/badminton on Friday. Saturday morning is spent with GD jogging. Saturday afternoon/evening is reserved for mahjong session, if any. I haven't got time and energy to accompany anyone out for window shopping, diner or movie. Any disruption to my schedule is going to cause a lot of changes.

My mum told me that I can find someone who can join our family outing (such as window shopping and diner) on weekends. If I'm not free, my "supposed" girlfriend can accompany her for window shopping and stuff. Not that I am saying my mum is naive, but the chance of finding such a person is very slim. Judging from my observations and CCL's findings from the girls in his workplace, many (and I must stress MANY) expect their boyfriends to pay for all expenses and also give them allowances. Sad to say, I don't think I can accommodate to that. Although the opposite sex can say that going Dutch is fine, but ultimately this is not an acceptable option long term. Sigh, I think I am repeat all that I have said to many of my friends (whom many refused to accept my theory). Think I shan't bore all you faithful fans with all the details.

In short, I rejected my sis' kind offer to introduce her friend to me. I appreciate her effort to fulfill my dad's call to introduce her friends to me. I believe my sis' friend can find someone better. I am just not in the right state to have a girlfriend. I have too many tasks on hand and thinkings in mind.
