Well, its a rest & relax day for me today.Had just finished my quiz and a first full score for me! =)
Shawn's gona be engaged in Frisbee for the whole day and its that time of the month so I guess I shall just rot rot rot at home.
It seems like a super long while since I properly update my blog with things that happen.
Prior to the last entry incident, there have been many other depressing events that really makes me feel like I am cursed with bad news.
For example, Shawn's grandpa had an operation in January and he was able to see those things whilst in the hospital. Some feel that its the morphin effect but I guess its true the spirits are there.
Then there was the accident I heard of from Shawn and later on the news abt a fren's fren's bro who passed away in the car accident. I duno him but its saddening to hear. Somehow he's Yenling's sec & poly fren too. Small world.
Then there was the day just 2 days before CNY that mum fainted at home & I literally flew back home in tears. Dad gave me a call from home just as I reached the office. I was like shouting questions like "what happened?" and "how is she now?" etc into the phone. Basically I scared the hell out of my colleagues. I was in such a shock that my hands were shaking as I took my bag and ran for the taxi stand. The taxi driver was like trying to ask me not to rush when I hoped into his cab (he was outside the cab toking to some one) and then shut up when he saw me in tears. We ended up sending mum to the hospital. Ok another first for me as I sat in the ambulance next to the paramedic driving. She had to stay for observation and only came home pass mid night that day. Good thing was mum's much better but she will have to go for further checks with the heart & blood specialist. Ever since then, I have been calling home to check every morning. Just to make sure. And knowing my mum, I have to come up with all sorts of reasons for calling. Thank god dad was still at home that morning. Thank goodness for that. Ever since then, I still fear calls from family members.
And I do think I need to go for blood checks too. Just in case. Seems like it runs in the family.
Work wasnt really smooth too. Just this week something happened and I had to search for something. But the good thing was the whole team united and everyone helped. I am really touched and very appreciative of their help. Its just that somehow those who really helped me are those from other cliques while there are a couple whom I was closer to that didnt really volunteer their help. Anyway they are under no obligation to help except for 1(Fg) whom I think she should also bear the responsibility. But I did not want to push the responsibility since the incident already happened and I feel that there is really no need to implicate more pple into the matter. But just to state down here for my future understanding, there were lots of possibilities on what really happened. And I am quite sure that the probabilty of it being my mistake is probably only less than 50%. But since its my port, I just have to LL accept it. Most of the colleagues understand this too. But luckily we managed to solve the problem yesterday. Finally. It had been a torturous week for me. With ah boh's death as well. Everything just didnt work out nicely.
And to add on to my suayness, monday evening ride home was just as bad. I was on the train when somehow a quarrel began right in front of me. In my mind I was thinking how unlucky can I get?! But thinking back, it was really a sad view of how some idiots can be.
A lady (mid 20s I guess) was trying to alight and I guessed she accidentally stepped on another female teenager's foot. Not really sure if she apologised but I believe it was really an accident cos the train was really packed. The bf of the teen was so angry he actually pushed the lady from her back with 2 hands and sprouted profanity at her. Right in front of me. Shawn was on the line with me when the incident happened and he tot that someone shouted at me. Had to quietly tell him that "its not me..." and hang up. The poor lady managed to support herself and obviously she was furious. She said that she will not alight till this couple alight and challenged the guy to go to control station with her. She also tried to take a photo of the teen bf who tried to act cool and was apparently not sorry abt pushing her. He insisted that he accidentally fell and landed on the lady cos the aircon was too cold. lame. And he refused to look at the camera claiming that he does not like to look at ugly stuffs. The lady was so furious and the quarrel continued for a few stops. I was tryin to inch my way away from them in the crowded train. Yes the train was packed but no one helped her. I am sorry I didnt too. I wonder if I were the lady how would I have reacted? In the end, the lady alighted at Khatib too. Not really sure of what she did after that too. But its realli ridiculous of the guy to behave that way! And the gf whose foot was stepped on made no attempts to stop her bf from behaving in such a stupid manner. She just sit there and watch the show. A pair of morons.
Ok enuf of the depressing incidents. Not a really nice entry for a rest & relax saturday. Hopefully I can blog abt happier things like CNY, VDay and our 4th Anniversary in my next entry.
