A Week Before My New Life, I...

Aloha! I am back again! But this time... As promised... A story to be revealed...

A Week Before My New Campus Life, I...

1. Was eating dinner on the 20th of June and it was 'ikan kembung' which Mom has cooked. Half way eating and talking through the phone with Teacher Celine... I just swallowed whatever that was in my mouth without actually biting it well and something poked me real hard down my throat. I knew that it was a fish bone and I tried to take it out but failed. So, my parents and a friend of mine, Yi Ming, who came to my house to settle some Uni stuffs, she's going to pursue Psycology in Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) by the way, advised me to swallow big spoon of rice and pumpkin without actually biting them... Oh well, mission failed... I used my finger to feel the bone in my throat while my friend was tapping my back as if I was vomitting but nothing worked. It wasn't choking, so, St. John's life-saving methods couldn't be used as well. Anyways, both my friend and I are St. John members. Finally, my Dad gave me a RM 50.00 note and asked my Mom to fetch me to see Dr. Leong and after that offer a lift to Kepong as it was late and my friend needs to go home to shower and all. I was the fourth patient and when it was my turn to see the doctor, he asked me to sit on the bed with my eyes focused towards to spot light and when he saw the fish bone on the left side, he grabbed a tool, asked me to freeze myself like a robot, and there you have it, the fine, thin fish bone is out! Oh, thank God! That's not all... I should be happy that the bone was out... But something else strucked me because of what my finger did to torture my throat...

2. Got a sorethroat after the fish bone incident. Dr. Leong gave me a bottle of medicine to guggle and if I still experience pain in my throat I gotta go back to him and get some antibiotics to cure the germs and bacterias that the fish bone might have in store for me. I didn't refer to Dr. Leong after I finished the bottle of the liquid given because I think it wasn't necessary to do so and it was such a waste of money as it wasn't a big matter that needed so much attention to it. I have to go for medical check-up for my University's requirements. Of course I don't want the other doctor to know that I was at that time under medication especially when the urine test says it all. Therefore, the sorethroat occurs and I still enjoy life... Like went out for a movie (A Thai Ghost Movie - Alone) and dinner at 1U with my 3 gal seniors, one of them is studying in UM now, so, she has been helping me lots in my Uni preparation and all... Last night I went out with both my Uncles and their gfs for Dinner and tea... I was the star for the day and I felt truly honoured because the course that we had was expensive! It was a Japanese course and it is situated in Ampang. It was my first time there and it is named Hajime. They said that even Japanese commented the food there are dear. We had sashimi right up to sushi, and it was almost RM 350.00 for five of us. After that, we went for coffee at Coffee Bean in Bangsar. I have never been to that shopping centre, too... Overall, I think RM 400.00 bucks spent on food and beverages alone... Guess what? We had sake and cold mee, too, in Hajime... Everything first time... It was a great experience and they are all so kind to me... Since the movie day, I...

3. Suffer from flu till now. Haha, got a cold from GSC's air-condition and here I am now with an irritating voice and nose! Hehe... I cough and sneeze from time to time... Never fell sick for quite awhile and it chose this week for me to be ill... Hope I will be okay by July... Orientation week's gonna be rough and dirty...

To Sally, I have added you into my link! Thanks for commenting!

To Ko Ko, I am proud of you also! It seems that I am the first one in Soh family to enter UM, is that true? Anyways, we went back to see Ah Ma at the Nursing Home and she is in good condition. Don't worry so much... Her appetite and all are very well taken care of. Will send to you a secret video I took but it wasn't that clear... Please wait for it, ok?

I have applied for JPA scholarship so far and sent the documents already. I hope that everything's okay because I think a lot and ask myself whether I got do mistakes or anything like that or not... Hmmm... worry... worry...

Tonight I will be meeting my Form Six classmates at a 'mamak' restaurant in Selayang. Just a small gathering but a meaningful one I hope. We will all go to different routes from now on and some are not even as fortunate as me. I don't know why... I am thankful for this offer and may God Bless everyone in the whole wide world!

Mina-san (Everyone), thanks for reading once again and see you next time! Hopefully with more graphics than words... Haha, we'll see... Oyasuminasai (Good Night)... Jya.
