I am staying at mummy's place tonight.
Was sick again since Friday. Food poisoning that I was throwing out everything and on runs. Of course, Hubby was so worried and invited my sister over to take care of me. In the end she became sick too. And she is very sure it's the water container. Well, practically I filled boiled water and didnt throw it away which Hub (in Aussie) and my sis accompanying me suspended that's the culprit.
So, we washed and threw away the water and reboiled. It seems to be an amazing recovery. But maybe I am also having the 'loneliness' disease which my sister laughed about. The hyper me just cant stay alone in a house. So, by end of the evening, we packed and headed for mum's home together.
So, 2 months or rather, 1 and half month, I need companion. (so strange but it seems so true), deep in my heart, somehow, I missed hub when I am so sick. Sigh, my heart longs for his return.

Today is the 4th day that Hubby left for attachment.
He is doing well for those who are concerned. Aussie is currently 2hrs ahead of us and next month onwards, 3hrs ahead.
I am coping well too. Probably, work had swept my feet off and I tried to let time passed quickly. I kinda of miss him. And yes, the usually me did cried a bit as this time round, departure was not from Changi Airport so I bid farewell at home. Now, counting down day by day. I wish these 2 months pass by quickly. Earlier this week, I confirmed that I will extend my stay in Shanghai during business trip and by the way I return is also time he is coming back to Singapore. So, it kinda double bonus.
Sorry, no mood to blog recently. More updates soon.

Was down with food poisoning in the mid of the week. It was terrible, my head is spining for days and sleeping for entire day.
It was the dry mee siam. Was heading for movie and decided to 'tabao' dinner from PS. The entire night was a torture. I cant sleep and was rolling. What a difference with mum taking care of me. I cant have home cooked food and it was meaningless to cook for 2 for us. While, tomorrow morning Hubby will be away for 2 months. So I wonder what happens with me alone in this house. ;(

"To the world, you may be one person. But to one person, you may the world"
We had our event our IMH this afternoon. Since last evening, we went over to put up the decoration etc. And I think I got 'hunted' numberous of activities that we had been handling and performing under stress; I even dreamt of the event.
Everyone was imaging the worst scenerio about IMH patients. Well, the 'country club members' were more well-behaved than our imagination. Nothing scary happened. Instead, they touched our hearts by performing, singing for us. Like "Ming Ming Bai Bai Wo De Xin" etc, we wondered whether the society or other factors like rejection had made them this way, cause they had such innocent hearts. What touches me was while giving out the snacks, this female patient asked whether I had eaten and wants to share food with me. And you think they will snatch everything from your hand, nope, when I gave the mooncakes, another told me 'No thank you cause I already received one in the ward'. They are more or less so pure, shaking hands and saying endless thank-you.
I am so surprised. Like what the seasonal volunteer mentioned, many of us may just go into depression or stress in our lives, it is just the margain that we did manage to pull through and for some, they didnt and for some, they are abandoned by their family or friends.
Like my header states, to some, we are really their world.

I am on course these 2 days. So managed to get off before 6pm and landed myself in town.
It was a wonderful feeling releasing from work early and since it is a weekday, I took the opportunity to shop around.. ;)
Shopping therapy - I havent been shopping decently for months! Hahha, I really extended and stretched till the last min! But I was still quite budget conscience since house renovation and making payment for my lasik. So I only bought a pair of shoes, some lingeries, a top and a dress. I am still considering buying few pairs of outdoor shorts.. I think I will get it tomorrow since I will be back to same area, at the same time, my 2nd lasik review tomorrow evening.
I am still having a bit of blurry effect.. Somehow, my left which used to be quite clear became a bit blurry and the right side is getting better. Well, I supposed it is the 'adjustment' period. Some colleagues and friends did ask whether I had obtained 6/6. FYI, not everyone will have 6/6. Lasik involved risk and it is subjective. I am unsure about myself but I did buy some vitamins just now for eyes improvement. So, the shopping trip came with purpose too.

Had our house-warming yesterday.
The night before, we did spring cleaning. Though we just shifted in but lots of rubbish everywhere. Letters, bags etc. On the actual day, I woke up just to buy food and made some desserts, sandwiches which I thought the caterer will not give sufficient. As usual, Hub invited all his colleagues and lost count. Then I got a bit stressed on the no. of turn-ups.
Well, in total, I think there are 80 guests, I kinda of lost count stepping in and out of the house topping food. It was like a mini ROM, greeting everyone, show rooms and chat a bit and farewell. By evening time, boy, man! I am tired out. After the last batch left, Hub sent the relatives back and I was left packing the place. Good thing place is small, I managed to wash and clear to the things quickly for an early night.
This morning woke up feeling giddy and nausea.. Well, this went on for a few weeks already. Then there was my colleague telling me that she had her mense for months when she was pregnant. So, I told hubby and we have no idea as my period is irregular. But we went for late breakfast for the first time, bought a pregnancy kit. Went back and test.. Erm... Ah erm... Results: No lah.. I am FAT but not preggie lah.. Must be the side-effect of lasik which adds on giddness, stress and overeating and last, not exercising.. haha.. (Sorry to disappoint you guys and I think you people are more anxious than me!)
Now at my mum's place. Hubby will be working on shift. 2 more weeks and Aussie, here he comes!

5th day after surgery, my right eye is still blury than the left. Probably the degree is also higher.
Back to work on Tues but all the computer focus really makes me giddy and tired. I need a break every 15-30mins. My anxious heart wants me to catch up on work, but my eyes did not permit. Was clocking into 8pm last evening, my colleague gave warning about my eye vessels turning red and I really need to go back to rest. Somehow, clear vision makes me tired at night too.. Lights are too bright, and stressed with work, house warming and hubby's attachment, well, I didn't have a good night rest. I was awake every hour. It used to be the blur blur vision making me sleepy after staring at the wall, but because vision is cleared and I had a hard time convincing myself to sleep. Yawn.. My eye bags out by morning. Rest of the day was eye-drops, eye-drops. I am using the 3rd box currently.
This afternoon, I was out for an event preview which landed me home early. Thank God, I was really exhausted at work and really need a break, at least, I downloaded some work and working from home is more of relaxing environment.
This week is going to be busy busy busy.. I need a break again.
And yes, I finally finished my last paper last Friday, the special event was a success, effort didn't go down the drain. Yipee..
I am quite sure I may graduate with a 2nd lower or 3rd honours degree. Not to take it to heart, afterall, I am floating with work, personal matters and school for past 1 year. It's never easy! So, I am quite filled with pride that I managed to do it! ;)
