Sick.
I've been coughing for almost one whole month and I wonder when is it going to stop.
My lymph node swelled up a few days back and I've been spitting blood stained phlegm from the coughing and infection.
Left me no choice but to call up the polyclinic to book an appointment for 2pm later.
Me:"Hi Doc, I've got a lymph node infection. Give me the meds."
Doc:"Need MC?"
Me:"Yes please, I've got work."
(2 minutes later)
*Walks out of the clinic.*
NOT!
Instead, it went something like:
Doc: " Soooooo, what's wrong with you today?"
Me:"I've been coughing for a month and it won't stop."
Doc:"Oh that's bad"
*Checks throat, breathing, heart beat, nose.*
Doc:"Looks like you have a bad bout of cough but it would be safer to do an X-Ray, so would you like to go for an X-Ray?"
Doc:" From your medical history I see you've had Sinusitis issues before. But from what I see the cough isn't related."
*Stares blankly at Doctor.*
Me:"Um, you're the DOCTOR. You're supposed to diagnose and tell me the course of action I should take to get my health back!"
Doc:" Wellll, it's up to you if you want to take an X ray, so do you want to take an X-ray?"
Me: " How would I know if I should take an X-Ray or not when I don't even know what's needed to get an accurate diagnosis?!"
*Fed up*
Doc: " Okay then, please proceed to level 2 for your X ray and come back about 45minutes to one hour later for the X-ray."
So I went to get my X ray done, wasting an hour plus of my time while an INTERN from NYP fumbled around with the X Ray machine.
When it was finally done,the nurses told me to go home and have my lunch before coming back for the X-ray.
I did just as I was told, only to be called back 15 minutes later to get my X ray results which showed no signs of TB.
WTF.
A quick visit to the doctor ended up taking 3 hours. JUST.LIKE.THAT.
I've got a 600 word report to write. It's not a mean feat, since it's shorter than a 1000 word essay written in Secondary school.
BUT I'VE FORGOTTEN HOW TO DO REFERENCING.
What I'd learnt in school just slipped out of my head and now I'm trying hard to recall.
*cough* *sigh* *cough*

There are limits.
I have been partying too hard for the past 3 days. Perhaps the stress got to me and I snapped.
Gin Tonic after class on Friday with Alex and Edgar in Yishun till 3am. Bumped into Augustine.
I love their company and this Halloween is going to be smashing with them!
Late lunch at Brewerkz the next day at Kallang with Calvin where we were supposed to go ice skating but ended up drinking Dragonfruit beer and eating burger/ steak before heading down to Esplanade on a whim.
Chanced upon the Lantern Festival Celebrations and sat through a very very nice oldies concert at the amphitheater after viewing some abstract art work at the main gallery.
I love moments like these.
Went down to Vivocity to meet Jeanie and gang along with Samson, Alan and Irene to club at lousy St James. Bumped into Augustine again.
Bought 2 bottles of Belvedere Vodka and had a ball of a time. But we got drunk somewhere in between, and headed down to a Taiwanese club/pub when Powerhouse got too squeezy.
We were out till 4am, and I was still high when I woke up this morning. And I couldn't recall part of my night.
Anyway, I met up with Seok today for sushi buffet at Cineleisure, where the food were too salty and not very nice. We went to see Alpha and Omega after that and did some window shopping before going for Miao's Wedding Dinner at the Hilltop Garden Restaurant.
It was nice. Until Peggy came along, got piss drunk and started spouting crap out of her mouth.
Anyway, I'm glad I'm out of that God Forsaken place and I look forward to a brighter future elsewhere!
Good night! =)

Sigh, Economics is a bitch, and Personal Effectiveness is an utter waste of my time.
I have too many bloody positions to fill. Blame it on my too effective marketing of my services.
I'm in desperate need of an Accounts Assistant, Group Legal Counsel, Secretary, Customer Service Officer, TWO Process Engineers, QA Technician, Commissioning and Technical Officer, Merchandiser cum Sales Personnel, and 2 Mechanical / Electrical Engineers.
HELP~!
I refuse to lose out to a a colleague who uses her Ah Lian good looks to get jobs via her Facebook, whom by the way, only has an "END" LEVEL education.
IF I were to stay long in this line, I want to make it BIG. Ughs.
Stressed. It has only been 4 days on the job...

Thursday night was spent at Alps Cafe drinking and chatting over dinner with Calvin.
Friday night was spent studying with Sean Y at Chinatown Point's Mac after dinner along Chinatown Food Street before heading down to drink and play Uno Stacko with Calvin at Players! Game bar.
Saturday was spent dinning out with The Tormentors to celebrate The Father Figure's Birthday, before going out for drinks at Dempsey Hill with Calvin again.
I want to bring W.Q to where I went cuz it's so damn fun there!

NEVER go to St James POWERHOUSE.
Met up with Samson, Alan, Corrine, Melvin and S last night at Samson's place for drinks before hitting the club!
We played Poker and drank a whole damn bottle of Johnnie Walker Green Label! ZOMG.
Johnnie Walker doesn't help to make walking easy. LOL.
Anyway, it was fun. UNTIL WE GOT TO THE CLUB.
Corrine was puking in the cab, and that made me puky as well. And then I had to pay the cab driver extra cuz we dirtied his cab as he claimed. And then Alan had to send Corrine home, so the night ended prematurely for them, leaving Melvin, Samson, S and moi.
We went to St James Powerhouse, danced, and I got SWARMED by a dozen teenage boys! They surrounded me in a circle and I couldn't extract myself out for half the damned night! I had to call Samson to save me, but his iPhone sucked. Cuz no SMSes I sent got through to him! WTF.
When I finally did, I was pretty pissed off! I danced alone for a bit and bought a bottle of Moet & Chandon cuz I felt like drinking some Champagne. Drank some, hopped up the podium to dance, and found this guy trying to drink my bottle when I don't even know him. I gave him a fucking piece of my mind!
Took a flute of Champagne up to the podium with me to dance somemore, but the joy was short lived cuz some stupid bitch in Hot Pink SLAMMED right into me and flipped my flute all over me all over the floor. The flute broke, and glass was all over!
Went over to ask the waiters for another flute, but apparently the waiters didn't know what a FLUTE was, and decided to give me Ball Glasses and Beer Mugs. WTF.
And while I was dancing on the podium, the supposed Head Waiter, which by the way, is a 20 Year Old BOY with fucking long hair by the name of Aaron or something cleared my half bottle of champagne away. WTF.
And when I asked politely why was my bottle cleared when there was still half a bottle in there, HE BLATANTLY LIED AND SAID, "OH, THE BOTTLE WAS EMPTY WHEN I HELD IT UP AND ALL FLUTES WERE EMPTY AS WELL."
WTF. Just 5 minutes ago, I had left it there and the next moment, it was cleared?! Samson was there and he saw everything. WTF. The bloody waiter emptied all flutes into the bucket and actually went away with it!
UNHAPPY! PISSED! MAD!
I told him my facts, and asked for compensation or at least an apology, but he rudely replied that this was a club and that was the way they OPERATE!
WTF. I was so pissed off I demanded to see his Manager. I was hoping to get him to apologize but in the end, the Floor Manager was JUST AS BAD! The excuse I got from the floor manager was very Very unsatisfactory. Not to mention, RUDE to an extent; showing utter disregard to the customer.
He used the same excuse as his rude boy, that pissed me off even more! I BLUNTLY told him that this wasn't the first time I was clubbing and OTHER CLUBS LIKE ZOUK give WAY better customer service! The service crew of Zouk even bother to take care of my drinks even if it's just empty JUGS with ICE!
PFFT.
He claimed to be from the hotel line, and now I know why he didn't stay there. BECAUSE HIS SERVICE STANDARD IS JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH! Perhaps it is time for him to realize that SERVICE HAS TO BE UP TO STANDARD EVEN AT A CLUB!
Bad floor management translate into bad, RUDE floor staff. They really need more training to up their service standard!
What's the point of a mega club with MEAGER, PATHETIC SERVICE? TSK.
I'm NEVER going to POWERHOUSE. I hated it 2.5 years ago for it's lousy service and I still HATE IT NOW.
They've never bothered to brush up on their service, it seems.

The Tormentors are gone for a short trip to Genting.
I'm left with the stupid sisters and tons of housework.
I finally passed my M5. The next step would be M9.
I was so afraid of failing, I had to pray. And that left my fear of failure at the door. I went for the exam without my textbook, which meant I did no revision on the way to the exam venue. Stayed for the an hour and a half, checking and rechecking.
Made no changes to my answers, and ended the examination with hardly any fear or anxiety.
=DD
Bought the new Mambo Jambo DVD+CD at HMV after the exam to reward myself, but sadly, the DVD sucked. The dancers were ugly, and the whole thing just felt PIRATED like those Pasar Malam bought karaoke DVDs.
W.Q is down with Chicken Pox in the MOUTH and it can't get any worse for a foodie like him. *Horror*
I wish I was there to care for him but he is just too far away for me to do that.
