Simple Thoughts of Mine

I am nothing special; just a common woman with common thoughts, and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten. But in one respect I have succeeded as gloriously as anyone who's ever lived: I've loved another with all my heart and soul; and to me, this has always been enough.

Goodbye 2008, Hello 2009!

2008 has been like a coaster roller ride for me. Finally, it is coming to an end. I wish 2009 will be a better year ahead although the economy is suffering a recession. I wish everyone including my family good health in many years to come and success in work/career. Happy New Year!!! =)

Merry Christmas!

Christmas this year was somehow different. I attended a church service on the 24th Dec 08 in the evening. Never would I expect myself to find myself in a church. I could never wake up early in the morning to go to the church with him. Just once i remembered, on 25th Dec 2005. I remembered his disappointed look when I appeared tired and the lack of zest in attending the service. He didn't even try to force me to change up and go to the church with him. Not wanting to spoil that special day, we went to the church. I could see that he was rather happy then. The feeling I had then n the recent one this year was somewhat different. I seemed to feel more at peace with myself after listening to the pastor citing examples in life in relation to the bible quotes. I felt calmer. To be honest, I always try to avoid the churches invitations from my friends. I didn't try to understand the religion as I wasn't feeling comfortable. I was born embracing Taoism. I enjoy going to the temple. I still do. However, I don't seem to resist going to the church at this current juncture. My friend, K first invited me to her friend's place for a pre-xmas gathering. My heart missed a beat when K told me her friend stayed in the same area as him. Wat are the odds of my friend knowing him? Very slim. I wouldn't dare go near that area. It happened to be one of the houses that I always need to walk past before cutting across to the playground to his place. I felt weird. I know everything is history. Anyways, I like the new frds I made and enjoyed playing "Taboo". A game I first got to know from the movie " Four Christmas". Gonna attend my friend's church this sat again to support her as she is giving her testimony. Looking forward to see K's CG friends too. Am going to get the game "Taboo" and introduce the game to my friends.

Merry X'mas, everyone and have a smashing New Year! I wish everyone good health.

Things are not looking good.

My sprained ankle is still very swollen and parts of the foot looked bruised. =( 2 of my toes are bruised and they hurt when I pressed on them. I need to go for an x ray to check if I fracture any of the toes. It just saddens me that I can't head to the gym for any workout looking at my current state. Taking medical leave to rest my foot seems unlikely. *sob*

What a day...

It was a beautiful Monday morning as usual until I fell flat on my knees on the pavement near my residence and sprained my right ankle. Blood oozing out from my left kneecap. Couldn't find any tissue papers to stop the blood and got my hands stained with abit of my blood. Glad I put some plasters in my bag and stopped the bleeding. My ankle was swollen like a pig trotter. The pain was excruciating and I can feel my foot trembling due to the pain. As I was a couple of hundred metres away from my home, I decided to hail a cab to visit the nearest doctor. I limped myself for another couple of distance to a location away from the bus stop before I called for a cab as the cabs these days are not allowed to stop at the bus stop.

Reached the clinic, seen the doctor and he wrapped my foot really tight. I was screaming my head off when he tried to press on my swollen ankle. And I screamed again when he wrapped the bandage tightly. I was given 3 days mc but it was no use. I still need to work on my engagement to avoid missing the deadline. I got a problem, there is no lift at my client's place. I guess I have to get my assistant's help to retrieve documents for me. It is gonna be a limping week for me. What a day! :(
