kilos .. eek!

Last Sat, my older cousin's wedding reception at the Fishing Village at Khatib, where we had a 10 course dinner.

Then on Sun, buffet at Yaki and Yuki @ Marina Square - for our HR outing. Because I'm lazy, I won't post pics. Instead, here's a video by our silent (and deadly) cameraman, Luthirien. Michelle and Jerry weren't captured because they had to go off early. We had several rounds of eating throughout 1-5pm.



Piling on the kilos .. uggh. And my op has been shifted to 10th July.

Due for an op.

Been having a slew of health related problems lately. First, the nose bleed which gave me a shock at work, had to take a day's MC.

But before I get to the main issue .. had lunch with Jaslin yesterday at the Korean stall at Chevron House. Then on my way home after work, met up (very impromptu) with Jerry, Adrian and his siter Fiona, Tim, Jaslin and ah ma for dinner. Initial plan was to go to TCC @ Orchard, ended up at Moku Moku, a Japanese style eatery at Far East Plaza. Will post the pics when I get them.

Today afternoon 1.30pm, went to Gleneagles Hospital with my mum to see Dr Christopher Chen for an appointment. After the nurse asked me a few qns about my medical history, we waited for a few mins before being admitted in. To cut things short .. after the scan (which hurt) he told me that I had slight thickening of my uterus, I had blood clots in my womb (which was just like what Ying Chuan told me) and my left ovary was in an "abnormal position". The medical term for my condition is called Endometrosis (for more info click here). The symptoms are much like what my mum had, except her was more serious so her womb had to be removed. But, Dr Chen says this kind of condition is not hereditary, which is a small consolation.

So basically, to "clean up" these clots, I would have to go for day surgery, where 2 keyholes would be made. The cost is like .. including the doctor and hospital side, about 10k plus o_0 Booked a half day ward for 3rd July, so I have the rest of the weekend to rest. I'm SO not anticipating myself being on the operating table .. but what can I do? Better to get this resolved faster than wait, delay .. and lead to more complications.

So peeps, not just ladies, do take care of your health ya?

First off, pics.















Mine and Dino's dessert, ice cream topped with various stuff (me) ice kachang with stuff below (hers) at Seoul Garden the week before. She loved her yam, I loved my choc chip ice cream with mint .. ain't had it for years.















2pcs Crispy chicken set at Changi Airport's Terminal 3's Popeyes last Saturday when my mum, brother and I sent my old maid off home. I liked the chicken, but found it a bit too oily .. and the bread .. a wee bit on the salty side, tho my mum said the butter made it taste good. Ps: Things are expensive there .. 6+ to 7+ per set .. not counting the side (biscuits)

I know I've been lazy. Yeah, last update was on 3rd June -_- But I've still been busy. Work is good, well I still make small mistakes here and there but I'm getting better. Then just yesterday I started on a different job .. checking files. Ayup, which means I have my own cubicle for now .. til they decide to change my job scope again. So now I only do counter work when I'm covering for my colleagues during lunch time.

Bought 2 muffins today, from Raffles Xchange. They're nice, airy affairs, the banana almond was good but the double chocolate chip really sucked. Come Friday, HR's gonna have a fac outing again .. and I'm looking forward to it. I think I really need a break.

And I would rant about the new maid .. cept some have already heard my woes. Oh well lols.

Had dinner at Seoul Garden last Saturday, brought my sis along. Spin's treat, cos he found a new job.

I'm into my 2nd week, and the feedback is I've to be faster. Mr Chua came to visit, as did Scott Jones last week.

The rest, I'll blog another time.
