January 1, Monday
I fell sick on January 1st! GREAT start to my new year.. Well it's the same symptoms like those experienced since age 15! But i tot i managed to overcome them cause i wasn't experiencing it since my last year in poly.. The last time i remembered very clearly was the time my meanies and i went for the degree seminar at i'm not sure where.. It happened on the way home in the train when i was with Annisha! I couldn't stand.. felt like fainting.. everything swirling ard me.. I had a few seconds blackout.. N i learned from someone that all i have to do is squat down so tat even wen i faint, the impact of my head n body hitting the ground will be minimal.. i doubt any guy would catch me fast enuff! hehe.. yet to see and try! =) Annisha was kind enuff to walk me home cause it was pretty late already.. Nice frend eh? But those thing only happened like half an hour or so.. N i'm not sure why it has to happen in a public place like the MRT all the time.. But it usually goes away after i eat sweets or chocs n drink some water. N i also need to close my eyes for some time.. But the one i just had lasted the whole day! i was on bed most of the time cause everything was swirling too fast n i couldn't stand n balance myself.. I showered with both hands against the wall to prevent from falling.. It was like as though i was drunk the night before.. But trust me, cookies n ice cream dun make someone drunk at 12am in the morning! hah..

January 2, Tuesday
Doctor visit the next day.. And you know what! The MEDICAL SYSTEM here SUCKS... Visited 3 different places and nobody wanted to attend to me.. Just because i wasn't a local patient and i don't have insurance and therefore i needed to make an appointment. And the only available spot was a week later.. Haiyo, like tat ppl can die liao la! The only time i can seek immediate help from a doc would prolly be wen i call 911.. but den my sickness tat seteruk sangat! Patience Liana...

January 7, Sunday
Attended a wedding ceremony.. The Bride, Rachael was very very beautiful! She's mixed just like Dina.. Her mum, Aunty Rose is one of Aunty G's gfs... She wore a very beautiful white gown but her hair is decorated just like a malay bride.. What do u call those golden pins tat u put on ur hair bun? Anyway, i met Rachael only once before her wedding day but my eyes was bawling n i couldn't stop crying during the whole ceremony.. It started wen the singer hired sang the song "only Hope" by Mandy Moore! And then the bridesmaid and groomsmen walked down the aisle, some even crying.. I cried even more wen they played 'Air On G String' wen the bride walked down the aisle with her dad.. Tu bukan wedding saya or anyone close, and i cry like s***! wad more wen i get married? Prolly people think i was forced into marriage.. Which partly is true la! muahahahha... After the ceremony we had dinner @ a wonderful setting! A spanish villa, dimly lit, full of beautiful flowers and 2 very special malay decoration done by me and Dina.. Haha! We came early to help out that day and was given the task to do the mangga thingy.. alah yang shiny2 stick poke onto something and placed on top of a bamboo pole.. hehe! It turns out pretty good for a first time decorator.. =) Then there was a touching scene whereby the bride and groom dance for the first time as man n wife.. N den the bride's dad danced with her to a song tat he chose. a country love song.. not sure wad's the title but it's something about him being the first to love her and that he wants the best for her even if it means giving her away to someone else. cue to cry again~! After dinner everyone partied hard till late at nite.. Boogied on the dance floor in my high heels = not so cute + nice calves =)

January 8, Monday
Doctor appointment at 1.30.. Left the doctor an hour later.. Had to fill up so many documents and they did so many test on me which includes "EKG" to check my heart rate.. Den they took blood from my finger and two tubes from my arm. kurang ajar, tak bilang siang2.. Yana jadi panic sekejap! Just like blood donation... hehe! had to strip naked too.. very the malu! =) The blood taken was sent to the lab and they wld prolly get the results 2 days later.. Doctor suspect tat i was aneamic.. Not enough iron in my blood.. She even tell me that the reason why i eat little is because i have a small stomach.. Gosh! That's like the PERFECT reason to tell ppl wen they forced me to eat alot or wen they think tat i eat little so tat i can look good.. HUH? i tot i dun nid to do anything to look good! muahahahha.. Well the WORST part is not here yet.. I HAD TO PAY FREAKING US$ 260 (ard SG$420) for a doctor visit! Now i learn to appreciate our Sg government.. Hmph!

January 10, Wednesday
Blood test results are in!
- hypoglycemia
- high potassium (i dun eat alot of banana leh... how come high?)
.
Heart dun pump out enuff blood for me. Blood cells die and gives out potassium therefore high potassium in blood. Which leads to alot of aches.. tat's the reason why my back n legs aches alot! Doc recommend eating sweets and chocs cause i can afford to eat them (weeeeeeeeeeee!) but the sugar they give me lose off fast because of my high metabolic rate. And therefore i should eat something like apples that has complex sugar which breaks down much longer than the simple ones. I have to eat food tat is high in protein so that i can have enough energy to last me the whole day. and i need to eat 2 extra light meals in between bf and lunch, lunch and dinner and before bedtime.. Siao eh! nak orang gemok ke aper? So just to let you know i've been very very good this past few days cause i eat beancurd twice a day as my light snack and drink gallons and gallons of soya milk everysingle day. Both are high in protein and would give "good" fats for my body.. That's wad Miss Jody who is a doc say la! hopefully she's right about the "good" fats... hey wait a minute, good or bad but still fats ma! alah nvm la.. Miss Jody is soo nice.. She's gonna buy for me the beancurd and soya milk from chinatown factory every sunday. Very fresh!! The soya milk is my favourite.. I heat them up since it's getting very very cold down here! I want spring to come fast..
