Short But Important Update...

Well, I haven't been blogging for 2 weeks now... so a short update about my life right now...

1. Kidney problem
So far so good, just another episode of pain, but shorter duration and less painful. Drank a cup of water, then after that went to the loo... after a while, pain was gone. Been trying to make an appointment with the urologist but nobody seems to be picking up the phone...

2. Studies
Study-wise, I'm going to classes, paying attention, doing my assignments. All's good, nothing to worry about yet... haha

Well.. that's that about my life right now.

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

I found myself a pretty gal, pretty, smart and loving gal. Her name is Huan Huey Wen, 范慧雯. Love her so much!
Actuallly, to tell you the truth... when I first saw her while working at The Store, I was kinda attracted to her a little. But being the shy guy that everybody know (and love =p), I dismissed those feelings as just a crush, and worked like normal.

Soon after I quit, I thought that was the last time I would see her, but then... her farewell party, I forgot who invited me along, but I saw her again, together with her family. We had barbecue. A fun night, I would say, since I got to see her again.

After that, we started msn-ing each other. And for some reason, everytime I talk to her, whether its about her problem or mine, I always feel happier, delighted, no matter the outcome, I always feel better after that. But I didn't really gave it much thought at that time.

So... after millions or perhaps billions of msn-ing to and fro... I finally have confirmed my feelings for her. No joke, seriously this time, I know it.

So on 12th September 2009, I mustered up my courage, and just said to her...

"wo hen xi huan ni"

She didn't reply immediately.
Awkward moment...
I thought I failed...
Then.. she said... she was too happy. Took me by surprise. Heart stopped a moment. Then I felt joy. So much joy. And from that day on... I was hers, and she was mine. =)

Me and my darling, aren't we cute? =p
p.s. I wanna take more pics with her. =)

So that's how we started.

我爱你，范慧雯！！！

p.s. My priorities are my studies, and with this super piggy to tell me to go study and do assignment, want to fail also cannot. =p

All's Fine...

Just got back from the hospital. Damn they work so slow.. >_<. I went there at 8.00am. Waited till 9.30am then only I got to do my ultrasound. By that time, it was 11.30am when the test was done. So there goes my first class. And to wait for the results, I sat in the waiting room until 2.30pm! So my second class is a goner. And at 2.30 they called me in, but the doctor only came at 3.30pm! By the time he explained to me everything, it was 4.00pm. My third class starts at 4.05pm, and I was hungry since I didn't have lunch at that time. So my third class was also skipped. =_=. So today is the first day where I skipped all my classes for the day this semester... just when I so semangat want to go to class...

Anyway, back to the main topic, after venting enough. The report came back, saying that I have two small unobstructed stones in my left kidney, about 5mm - 6mm. I don't have the report of course, but I peeked a little, being the curious me as always. The doctor said that the pain I felt two nights ago were most probably some of the stones going to my bladder, and I most probably have passed them out without me knowing it, since at the time of the pain, I did not even think that I have kidney stones.

So, I'm fine now. Will be making an appointment with a urologist, recommended by the doctor, just for further checking, but shouldn't be too alarming. So no worries~

Thank you everyone for the concern, through SMS, FB, and MSN. Special thanks to my mum, dad, bro, sis, couzzies for the concern (especially ah mi... so worried... haih...)
Also, Hueywen, send me cute SMS at 3.30am your time, surprised me pulak =_=
David, for checking up stuff on the Internet because you had nothing to do~ haha

Thank you Thank you. Domo domo~ arigato gozaimasu...

"All's well that ends well" =)

Pain Pain...

It happened at 1am today... I was happily sound asleep when it happen... a sharp, excruciating pain came and whacked my left side, around the hip area. It was so painfully that I could hardly get up at that time. A few minutes went by, I rolled all over the bed. Until I can tahan the pain a bit, then only did I walk to the bathroom... why, I do not know. Then after that I just went around the house, hoping that a little bit of walking would do wonder.

No use.

Then after that I tried having a slice of bread. Wrong thing to do. I ended up torturing myself even more because my throat seems to have closed for the day. Then after that, panadol. Work a little I guess, but still sakit..

So.. magic number, 112...

So waited for them... called Jeanne to get ready to open the door for them (just in case I pengsan or anything...) Then they came, took my bp, temp and whisked me off to the hospital!

There, they took even more bp, more temp.. more stuff.. then I was made an appointment. By that time, the pain has subdued a little... but still quite painful...

After that, met the doctor, he asked questions, I answered, bla bla bla... then time to give urine sample. A hell lot of waiting in between though... and I got a little sleepy...

After the urine sample, they did their thing (I dunno what they did but it took them a hell lot of time), the doc came back and said, we found traces of blood in your urine. You might have a kidney stone. We'll need to do some blood tests and an ultrasound.

Then I woke up... BLOOD TESTS!!! Damn...

Jolly nurse comes in, ties the strap around my arm and wonders... where the heck is my vein... she still couldn't find it... weird...

then she ties the strap at my wrist and found it... found it and started sucking my blood, through a syringe of course. And I felt the same when I did blood test for jpa.. lightheaded... dizzy... faint... I had to lie down for 15 minutes after that... >_<

After that, I walked back home, in the chill of the night and the howling wind, to get ready for my math class at 8.30am. Right now, having noodles and chicken for yesterday's dinner cum today's breakfast.

Having an appointment with the doc tomorrow at 8.00am - 9.30am for the ultrasound.

Damn...

Life back in Montreal...

I'm back in Montreal liao~ sorry for the late post (<-- David). Kinda busy with unpacking and stuff.

Btw, brought a few of my "family" to stay with me in Montreal~~~ here they are...

Karaoke Sessions~

Ever since I'm back in Taiping, there's this new place in town called "Taiping Sentral". Actually, it ain't new, just that for me, its new la~~ Mentang-mentang I orang Montreal kan? ;p

Anyway... when I was in Montreal, HueyWen keeps telling me, when u come back, we go sing K ok? (This is right after she got wind of me singing K in Montreal after XiaoWei's celebratory dinner). I mean, I just went one time... ONCE! Then the following night... HueyWen's MSN message came, short and direct, "ky, you come back, we must go sing K. --> followed by evil grinning monkey emoticon..." Without the usual "hi", she went, we MUST go sing K. End of story...

So I came back, hoping she had forgotten about the K thingy... mana tau, first thing she saw me, sing K! *sweat* So... I paiseh wan refuse her lor... After all, I thought it would just be a one time thing ma. Apparently not...

First session - With David, ChiewBee, Sinyee, and her...
Second session - With the above except David (David ffk me... T_T)
Third session - With more people, too many sessions to remember the people that went already. I was that blur!
And there was a fourth session... was there a fifth? I lost count...

Those sessions, we all (read: guys) know how it goes. The guys all sit quietly listening to girls singing until its time~ We're perfectly happy with that. However... this girl is something else... she FORCES people to sing... not through force, but by persuading and using the two most taboo words, "SOU HENG" <-- power word, remember guys. So she say like that, have to go right? Ish... talk about persuading...

During all those sessions, I have no idea what to sing.
Chinese? Yeah right...
English? Sien...
Malay? Lagi sien...

So in the end, I ask her to choose for me. BIG mistake! She takes the opportunity to buwee me... Q_Q. She go and choose chinese songs pulak... aiyoyo... sei lor... mm sai cheong lor... yat deng pengsan lo... This happens every karaoke session... I kena buwee... during karaoke... haiz...

Conclusion: Never, Ever, let Miss Huan make song selection for you if you go sing K with her, unless you want to kena buwee~

But in truth, those sessions were great fun, the girls sang good (choir ma..), the guys, ma ma dei~ So... sing K, we leave it to the girls la, ok? hehe...

Genting~ My Second Home~

As many of you know, since my return in May, I'va been to Genting for 1.. no wait, 2... no... 3 times. 3 freaking times. Before I went overseas, Genting was like once half a year thing for me. So to go to Genting 3 times in a span of 2 months means I have used my one and half year Genting quota. Therefore, Genting is my second home! (Although I don't know much about it... hehe)

The first two times, I went with me family. Family first of course! Of course, when go with family, stay more in the hotel... nobody "pei" me go play games~ Just got my BearBear to "pei" me play laptop... who.. btw.. very bising everytime I play DoTA. haih~

And then, there's the trip with friends. That one, if bring laptop also sure no time to on... cause these people, dunno how to rest wan. I pulak, terikut-ikut them gila... But then, it was a nice trip with them. A party of 6, my favourite party number, and a balanced party, of 3 guys and 3 girls.
Chronology of events:
1) Arrived, 2 hours+ to check in.
2) Night time, so go First World Plaza walk around, played bowling and pool~
3) Next morning until evening, Outdoor Theme Park!!!
a) Swinger~ thing that goes round and round and round and round and rou...
b) Pirate ship~ thing that goes swinging left and right, left and right, left and ri...
c) Spaceshot~ also and better known as solero shot...
d) Corkscrew~ as the name implys, its a rollercoaster shaped liek a corkscrew...
e) Flying Dragon~ if only the dragon could fly of the rails...
f) Thunder Mine something, I can't remember~ A roller coaster in which you see nothing inside... because its pitch black...

After that, it started to rain~ heavily. So lunch time it is then. After lunch, continue play! First thing after rain, (and lunch) Tea cup! These people really really sot! After lunch go play tea cup, gone la lunch! But they still wanted to play the cup. So off we went. Luckily each of us were given a cup of our own, so we spin according to our stomach la. But then, one of the girls, she didn't spin... so... the Genting worker there "helped" her... helped a bit too much... and she was groggy after the ride. Pity her only.. xD. We also went to Dinosaurland, kinda like an educational tour for children to learn about Dinosaurs~ and also the Space Lab, which sucks to the max because I couldn't see any possible nice thing about it. I mean seriously, we sat in there, facing each other. And in the middle, there was a kind of set-up for an experiment. And when the thing started, I think it was supposed to make us feel like we're being turned over and over and over and ov... Anyway, it didn't work. I can clearly see that the surroundings were being turned instead of us, and throughout the 10-15 minute "ride", I only had pretty lights to enjoy... swt! Also, we visited our childhood by sitting on the merry-go-round~~~

Then night time, after dinner that day, somebody wanted to go to the haunted house. That somebody, was SinYee. And eventually, that somebody... namely SinYee, went... erm.. how should I describe it, *jump jump stomp stomp*. That was just too funny to watch. Instead of feeling scared, I was laughing the whole way through!!! Mwahahahahaha~

Next day, end of the trip, pack, jalan!
By the way, here are some pics, just a few, for those that are unfortunate enough to go~ haha...

See~ enjoy so much~


On the merry-go-round...


Me with the lion~ kawaii neh~


pooling~ 2 guys teaching a girl how to pool...

Redang Trip~

As promised, I said I will blog about the redang trip. Not to say really blog, but... more like photos here and there. After all, pictures are worth a thousand words, aren't they? Oh well, let's get started...

On the 26th of May, 2009, Me, Vijay(VJ), SekLun(SL), FuhYuen(FY), TungKeat(TK), ChunKit(CK), ShuYing(SY), WeiChian(WC), Elynn(El), ChiewBee(CBee), HueyWen(HW) went to redang. VJ, SL and FY went from KL while the rest, well, from Taiping la. As usual, I was late for the bus... Sorry la... xD

On the bus, most of us, the usual 5.00am sleepers aren't sleepy yet. Therefore...

the normal... *peace* sign

the whole group, erm.. sort of...

Stop by Grik...

makan makan... those two hari hari suka ss...

and so.. our journey continues until Terengganu...

CK so happy that he jumped for joy!


Dunno why WC staring like that....


All so happy get to go redang~~~

After that... at the jetty...

Acting cool... at the jetty.. =.=!

No place to stay... so had to "mau kai"... xD

Well, after the wait for the boat, we went on the boat(obviously). On the boat, most of us look around at the beautiful scenery... others.. well, they were busy doing something else...

like praying...


see... scenery~ choppy waters included


before the choppy waters and praying~

Upon reaching, first thing to do is... check in la of course. So while HW went to check in, I went to see see the surrounding la...

view of the resort opposite mine


crab! (spotted by SY)

And so... after checking in, in a few more hours was a snorkeling session. So before that, a few, namely, Cbee, SY and El voiced their... erm... discomfort in the water. All because they didn't know how to swim. The easy part was to teach them to swim. The hard part... was to teach them to trust the life jacket. One would have thought that the norm would be the opposite but then again... stranger things have happened...
Anyway~ snorkelling session, was fun, I guess. No pics though, because I didn't bring my camera~ Saw a hell lot of fishes and corals. Lucky I didn't eat any fish that day, otherwise, I'm gonna smell like a fish among the fishes and it ain't gonna be good.

After the session, some of us, just couldn't get enough of the water. Therefore... we went to the back and play more water! Play play play until dinner. These people only know how to play nia... haih~ After dinner, play summore!

The usual nightly activity... "sit big 2"!

That was the night then... except for TK, who conked out after 3/4 of Carlsberg... The rest of us, we played "chor dai dee" and "Angels & Demons". First time I played A & D, so it was more funny to me than fun... xD. Next morning, WC came to knock on the door for us to catch the sunrise~

2 of many shots of the sunrise~

That morning, we went for another snorkelling session. Altogether, there are 3 sessions for us. By the end of the second session, we were feeling kinda... well, bored. After all, one can only see that many fishes and corals in a span of two days now isn't it? Well, I went for the three sessions anyway. A few of us stayed back, cause these sessions are quite tiring. Other than fishes, there are other interesting things to see and do in Redang.

The classic, bury in sand~

By the way, our Redang trip was made more interesting as during our meal times, we are always accompanied by a certain furry friend...

Aww... look at that face...

The trip to Redang sure was a nice one, full of fun and excitement.
Some day, I will go there again...
