The world cup fever’s leaving many people tired and worn out during day time – and I’m one of those suffering from this contagious fever. The 1st match starting from 9pm, second at 12am and there’s a last match that starts real early, like 2 or 3am?
Catching this fever has made me really groggy in the day and superbly awake pass midnight.
Luckily I was rather sober and awake whilst giving tuition to Phyllis and Yan yesterday. Went through Phyllis’s physic’s paper and thought she did quite well. Especially for her short answer questions. Did the TYS for ‘Lens’ with her soon after, and that was then I realised that I have totally forgotten the uses for each type of lens. The distance of the object from the lens would create a different kind of image, either real or virtual, enlarged, etc. And I had to keep referring to the text book when going through the answers. Signs of aging and the soccer fever. BAH.
Then came Yan. I was rather pleased that he at least managed half of the linear graph questions I gave him. Went through the rest with him and thought him more about the quadratic kind of graphs. Hope I have made it simple enough for him to understand. Went playing basketball at his condo basketball court, and then went for dinner at Koufu. Showed him the Hard Gay thing too! Dang he laughed his head off. And he couldn’t stop doing that ‘say say say’ thing after that. Oops. Bad influence.
After our dinner, we went down to SAFRA to pool, to ‘celebrate’ his birthday. Played 3 games and I thought we took a hell long time to complete the games as I missed shots that I would usually make. Guess it was the influence from the fever. But we had fun though. Taught him the trick shot thingy I learnt from Neo back in school.
And so I came back home, read my James Patterson book and watched Spain against Ukraine. Got superbly awake when it passed midnight and I caught some movies on HBO before sleeping at around 2+. And I only woke at 10am today, when I dragged myself out of the bed to get ready. Didn’t want to be late, but turned out I was early and our dear Ling was late. Figure that she was dolling up or something and took a while. =)
First thing I had to do when I got on the car was to fix that basket that had a malfunctioning handle. Wonder what on earth they did to it. Poor basket. It didn’t take us long to get to NUH, and by the time we saw her and chatted for a while, she had to be wheeled into the OT.
Went for lunch at the food court while waiting, and saw 6 ex-trainees. They were sending a patient to the hospital. Was thinking what kind of patient needs 6 medics to send. Must have been a really serious case, or just perhaps that person is one big shot. And after lunch we went back to the waiting room and chatted a while and then came the topic of Ling’s ‘purple wedding’. I think it would be quite a sight if the wedding was entirely purple. The flowers, the tables, culinary, the gown and… ya, the groom wearing a purple tux. No doubt this would go into the Guiness Book of Records for “world’s 1st mono coloured wedding” or “world’s 1st purple themed wedding”. And she even wants her guests to be dressed in purple. Sheesh.
Went back to the ward and talked to her. We were rather surprised that her anesthetic wore off so quickly. As she told us about the gas mask the docs gave her and she knocked out, I thought that the aesthetician gave her Entonox with a reduced dosage of anesthetics. Just a guess though. Saw the nurse taking her BP and saw that her BP was a little bit low. But guess it’s just a normal post-surgery symptom. Talked to her for about 20mins and we tried to coax her to sleep, but to no avail. She complained of hunger and the 2 blankets didn’t seem enough to keep her warm. Wonder if he stole the blankets from the empty beds beside her.
Just thank God that it wasn’t anything serious and the entire operation went smoothly. =)
Got a ride from Hoon back to Bishan and met up with Ber after that. Went up to the gift shop where she got the puzzle thing for YZ.
It’s this shop, where they’ll make a puzzle out of whatever photo you give them. An A4 sized one is $19.90, and the frame costs around $36. But the frame is optional though. I’ve yet to find a frame for the one Jess did for me. It’s still lying on my table till this day. Guess I’m just pure lazy.
Went walking around and got a new shirt from U2. I think I like the shirts there and I got a white one this time. Thought it looked nice and it cost me 43bucks. Thought it was on 30% discount, but little did I know, the price shown on the price tag was already discounted. Ouch.
We had Macs and chatted at Coffee Bean before she left to meet Danny boy and I left for the court.
Tuition and shopping’s up tomorrow. Can I keep myself awake?
--
I am having the weirdest dreams lately. They say that you dream of what you see and think in the day. So what does this mean? I’m still thinking? I’m still seeing? What is it? Why even dreams haunt me like that. Why do I have to wake with an ache in my chest and a tear in my eye? Why do I miss you so much? Why?
Life is beautiful. Isn’t it? Shan’t put any thought on that. I guess that’s another question that’s about to be left unanswered for a very long time.
God bless all.
