Qing Ming Yesterday

Family and Relationshipsread more | add new comment

It was Qing Ming yesterday, an annual day where families go visit their ancestral/relatives' tombs. So there were a bunch of relatives at my house yesterday. I usually don't do anything on this day, not that I can do anything because the house would be occupied and I won't be able to get any sleep, not from all the noise.

Chinese New Year & Me

Music: E-Type - Here I Go

Ever since I was twenty, Chinese New Year and I stopped becoming friends. Well, sort of. It gets worse when my family started having reunion dinner aka "extended version" which means having a dinner with some relatives (distant & close) that you would probably not recognise walking on the same street.

I still can't tell whose kids or which family side they belong too. Eating together is just a pain in the arse. First I have to show my face in a crowded restaurant and squeezed myself into a table of 11 which probably should sit only maximum 10 persons. And yeah, the food although tasty, is v small in portion. I went home still starving! During the entire dinner, I promptly plugged my ipod earphones into my ears and listened to it all night. Definitely beats listening to small talk and gossip or worst, the loud noisy CNY music. I just hate those.

Job Again

So I tendered my resignation two weeks ago and started serving my one-month notification period. I still feel very tired and my stress level has dropped quite a bit at work.

I've been feeling very burnt out recently, and rather distracted as well. First was my medical screening results that was not that good. I had to go through another couple of tests just to get some sort of confirmation. Luckily these tests results returned negative for any form of cancer. That's a major relief. On the down side, I now have to start another 15 months medication on Carbimozole because I have a relapse of my thyroid condition. It seems particularly pessistent in me, always surfacing after a year or two of being 'medically cured'.

Music: Lindsay Lohan - Over

I've been very bad-tempered lately and it doesn't help that I'm quick-tempered as well. What a lovely personality combination!

Just yesterday, I was sick and took the day off work. Had to go see a doctor but my legs were so weak. I think I was staggering rather than walking. To make matters worst, I was really starving. I threw up all my breakfast and whatever remained soon came out the other way. You would have think I don't even have energy to get to the Doc's.

But I did, with the car and by the time I got back from the Doc's, I was really feeling v sick. But I wanted to eat. So I went into the kitchen and mom was clearing some stuff. She empted all the shelves and things were all over the floor. I had a hard time trying to walk through the kitchen without hurting my foot. I was really annoyed and when I found out, I didn't have any space left on the sink to prepare my food, I flew into a rage. Yup =) Very spoilt I know but I was really very angry then. In my mind, there was only one word - 'FOOD' and anything delaying my food was pissing me off. So I ended up threwing the aluminium foil upwards and it ended behind the refrigerator where its v hard to get it out again.
