Nooo...
Temperature reads: 38.1 deg celc
However, no signs of continuous flu, muscle aches etc etc
Phew. According to the doc, I'm down with throat inflammation and fever.
Costed me $34 bucks as the only time i had to see the doc was after work at night. UHWC is closed by then. At least I got my first MC in my life to get a good rest.
Yet,
this morning my eye got swollen.
" It must be the diclofenac ( NSAID) the doc had given me for my throat inflammation.
Tho i told the doc i have allergy to Aspirin, i wasn't too sure if i could have an allergy to another NSAID. ok. So for now i know that I'm allergic to NSAIDS. =(
hope the antihistamines work to reduce my swollen left eye.
It has only been my 2nd week in AH and the stress is kicking in into full mode.
Well, it's definitely very overwhelming experience for the first week. I didn't know that pharmacist are super super multitasking expert people. They do so many different things and yet can be super duper passionate about every single thing!
In retail, you do most of the same thing every day.
In hospital, you have plenty of challenges awaiting you.
My 2nd week ending soon. 3rd week will be a challenging one. 4th will be quite a slack one but there's project to catch up on. Phew. Just hate it when just this amount of stress can already hit me right down to a super low resistance. I wish i have a better immune system. -_-
Hoping for the best~

Everybody's Free ( To Wear Sunscreen) - Baz Luhrmann
The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas
the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering
experienceI will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not
understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded.
But trust me, in 20 years youll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you
cant grasp now how much possibility lay before you
and how fabulous you really looked.
You're not as fat as you imagine.
Dont worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective
as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum.
The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind;
the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing everyday that scares you
Sing
Dont be reckless with other peoples hearts, dont put up with people who are
reckless with yours.
Floss
Dont waste your time on jealousy; sometimes youre ahead, sometimes
youre behind the race is long, and in the end, its only with yourself.
Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you
succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch
Dont feel guilty if you dont know what you want to do with your
life. The most interesting people I know didnt know at 22 what they wanted to do with
their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still dont.
Get plenty of calcium.
Be kind to your knees, youll miss them when they're gone.
Maybe youll marry, maybe you wont, maybe you'll have children, maybe
you wont, maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken
on your 75th wedding anniversary, what ever you do, dont congratulate yourself too much
or berate yourself either your choices are half chance, so are
everybody else's.
Enjoy your body, use it every way you can.
Dont be afraid of it, or what other people think of it,
its the greatest instrument youll ever own..
Dance even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.
Read the directions, even if you dont follow them.
Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.
Get to know your parents, you never know when they'll be gone for good.
Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the
people most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go,but for the precious few you
should hold on.
Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the
older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard;
live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will
philander, you too will get old, and when you do you'll fantasize that
when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and
children respected their elders.
Respect your elders.
Dont expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund,
maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might
run out.
Dont mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40,
it will look 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it.
Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the
past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts
and recycling it for more than its worth.

I’ve been reading through this months’ Reader’s Digest and came across a 2 page list of drugs which amused me. You must be wondering ‘what’s the big deal? Drugs are for every purpose in our lives are everywhere” And so I thought. But this was rather different. Have you ever heard of drugs that might help relationships? Viagra is one. Yup. But listed below are many others ..>.<
New Drugs For Men ( By Women)
1. Anniversia – Trieggers memories of birthdays and wedding anniversaries while simultaneously loosening spending inhibitions at jewellery shops.
2. Verbiloose – One spoonful of this before dinner will make a man willing to talk about his feelings for 20 whole minutes.
3. Slendavis – Widens and flattens the male cornea, making wives appear slim and willowy.
4. Belchex – Adds a terrifyingly foul taste to stomach gas making men scared to burp, or let loose any other gas from their body.
5. Sportoblind – Reacts with the optic nerve to prevent men from regonising the word “sports” on the TV schedule.
6. Gadjesterol- Deadens the area of the brain that makes men waste money on overpriced gadgets.
7. Storophobex- A spoonful a day for two weeks will make men eager and willing to go shopping with their wives and wait patiently in stores – even boutiques and lingerie shops- for an astonishing four hours.
What’s more? There’s even a list of drugs FOR WOMEN( by MEN)
1. Shoppiproofen – Two 5ml doses taken at breakfast will enable a woman to walk straight past stores without entering.
2. Moodifix- Doubles the length of time a woman stays in one mood before changing to another, that is, from about 2 mins to 4, if you’re lucky.
3. Irrationalicet-Helps women maintain logical argument without drifting off into side issues, such as “But do you love me?”
4. Slatewypia- A dose od this prevent women from remembering anything their male partner said more than a year ago.
5. Naggicease – Disables the vocal chords for up to five hours.
Well, truly amazing , huh?

I'm once again back at home in KL.
After enduring all those days of studying in my 3rd year Pharm course, it feels weird coming back home for hols. Well, one more year to go..time really flies.
My intern will start in mid June. Pray that all things will go well in AH. Until now, I don't feel that i belong in retail or hosp or industrial. I've no idea where i'll go after my final year. I'll just let Him guide me along the way.
Sometimes, the very mixed up feeling arises when u're in a different environment. I feel happy yet not all happy being at home. In fact I felt happier spending hols in Ipoh. Yet, it's not all that happy either..I felt another sense of happiness being in Sg alongside with the unhappiness being the majority of it.
It is just weird.
And a few days ago, there has been a few sad news.
It made me wonder again...what is life to me??
So many unanswered questions like..
1. Why is it that life - human beings are only found on Planet Earth?
2. Where EXACTLY do the spirit ( of the demise) go to?
3. What is the purpose of human on earth? To work , to earn money( which we self created it to have some sort of value which now leads to us humans going against nature just becoz of some printed paper?), to obtain material wealth ( which we put a value to it with the same sort of printed paper, and later we throw them away or recycle them after it has served it's purpose for a period of time.), and to finally die ( leaving behind what we've created supposedly to make us 'happy' with life on earth.).
4. Is there a bigger purpose human beings are made? Is the initial plan for human beings to safeguard the earth?( plans can go bad) So now since the plan has gone haywire it is predicted that the earth will be soon destroyed by us. And we will follow suit. Signs and symptoms are evident. Extreme variation in the weather will leave us suffer alas!
Just something to ponder..
and i wonder when will this day arrive...

It feels weird to blog after not blogging consistently.
Perhaps the intense hyper feeling to blog has faded as I realised my blog is all about sadness and death and hopeless and just...all gloomy.
Indeed, life in NUS is gloomy. Yet, where has all the happiness gone to? Eaten up by numerous CAs?
Hell I don't really care about my grades anymore. Heck, have I lost my motivation to study?
No.
It's just ..tired of doing the SAME THING again and again every single day in 3 years?
Good news is...I have a year more to go to have such routine life afterwhich I will have another type of routine life...working.
Is life all about routine?
I envy people who travels around the world, appreciating the greatness in mankind, artistry, scenery, music, cultures, food....
I envy people in the entertainment industry particularly those who travel and appear on TV ; recommending the various food in different countries, or those who travel around and appear on TV for documentary on interesting places around the world. I envy those who do freelance art around the globe.
The idea of them getting paid while doing their hobby is just...superb!
You live to experience the world, and yet you won't die of hunger as you get paid sufficiently for such a living...
Maybe I'm just like the other 90% of people in the population who will be stuck in one job, one place until the end of time. What a waste.
I find it quite interesting that most people , when ask what is ur ambition, would usually have a dead-end answer of an occupation of some sort. If u ask me, my ambition is to live life to the fullest. To experience great things. Yet, this ambition can never be realised for now..
I hope I'll live long enough to see the world. It doesn't matter how old you are...an ambition does not state that you have to be in ur 20s to have it realised.
Sad thing. Despite knowing that Sg is not a place for me, I 'll be stuck here for at least another 10 years or so. Sad.
