weekender

i thought last weekend was great enough. went to seoul garden buffet with dear. ate till bloating. after all it was healthy eating because i ate lots of greens. Nevertheless didnt expect this weekend to be even more better. last class on thursday-came to PG. Just finished my debate on wed, had lab test and quizes on thurs. Now i am finally free of my stupiud lab reports. really begin to hate them so much as they are really time consuming. Worked non stop for 10 reports but it only gave us 60%. The 1 hour test gave us 40%. That is really unfair. I have been playing games consistently this weekend, coupled with occasional nagging by my dear. still had another test next wed and the last english work-interview on tuesday. Shit- i felt i am being addicted to Dota again just like the old days. Needed help.......but not nagging. I of course want to go shopping but the financial strain and the workload of my dear having this week are too much of a burden.

test stress

tomorrow, i had to sit for the 20% carry marks test-Fiber processing. After reading the notes given, i found another great interest in it. I finally understand why some materials especially the textile need to have certain properties to have better characteristics. Anyway it gave me a freeze on my head thinking of the high allocation of marks for this. I do not understand why we student stresses so much on the test. I had gone through many other test this sem but this is sort of the most stressful one. God Bless Me tomorrow. I wish me and dear all the best tomorrow test. Hope we can go to Seoul Garden or Flame with an open happy heart after the exams. Better sleep early as lack of sleep the past few nights.

ending of holidays

its friday. Me and dear set off for early dim sum nearby which is pretty delicious. Then not wanting to give up we went to the Penang General Hospital although being told that it was closed due to raya holiday. We were pushed around the few department involved until we get to see the GP. We had some shocking news as the GP told me to go home and use a cotton bud to 'dig it out'. This contradicting info from what the specialists in UMMC told me throughout my entire life. NEVER used cotton bud-thats the common phrase i heard. Again i feel frustrated so we pushed her to refer me to the specialist though she was pretty reluctant then. Good for me that the specialist who treat me was a good one, and she did the suction for me. Without the microscope i doubt she can actually see through inside the eardrum but the suction was good enough to remove some huge chunk of shits. I did have some ear drops and olive oil for 2 months. Over all the trip was worth since it cost me RM 1 and the treatment and waiting time was short (less than 1 hour)

Its sat, time has signalled the coming end of holidays. Woke up at 2 pm after dotaing with aaron till 4am. Me and dear went to Penang Youthpark for hill hiking. Met lots of monkeys and even some of them whom were so aggresive.

Ear Blockage

Omg! my worse fear has returned. After being diagonosed as a patient who often gets ear problem; be it infection, fungal or just mere blockage due to excessive wax, i am pretty afraid of this scenario although experience is in my hands. Specialists in the past had treat me well but i cant believe i still have to endure this again. Is it because of my love for swimming or my itchy hand which disturbs the natural removal of the wax?? Ear wax, which is also called the cerumen by scientist are usually auto-removed by natural process and can be enhanced by the movement of our own jaw! There are many ways that it can removed, with practically 95% General Practitioner going for the syringing method. For this, the water used must be warm and be in temperature closed to our body temperature, just to prevent any dizzy side effects. Syringing process is the first ear wax removal procedure in my life. Though i do remember it is a little warm, it still give some dizzy effects and some pain too. The specialists in UMMC never used this but prefer only the vaccum process under the microscope. They believed that water might damage the ear canal or ear drums if there is any holes on it. Now that its raya time and all hospitals are closed, i feel so sick and traumatised. The feeling of losing your hearing on one side for two HELL days is CRAZY. That is the only time u feel like living like OKU. Anyway, hope all these will be ok soon.
