A good chance to talk less

Had this sore throat for like 8months. Its was tormenting. I would wake up almost each and every morning, not by my alarm but from the pain in the throat. Apparently, during the night when I sleeps, the throat would get dry and hence, the pain.
I finally decide that I could not take it anymore and went to a private doctor last saturday. And the truth is, my throat was okay but it seems that I have damage my vocal chord from all the screaming in the KTV last year end when I would desperately scream like a rocker wannabe in the KTV imitating Shen Mu Yu Tong aka Y2J. Well, the advice for me is to talk less, speak softer and No coffee, tea or anything acidic, sour, spicy blah blah blah. The no coffee and chilli part is really killing me softly as I am typing now. Where the joy in life when I cannot eat chilli.
Worse thing is that Churou doesn't know what to do and so do I. You see, we would talk on the phone every night before we go to bed. So imagine when we were trying to converse on the phone and I wasn't allow to speak much or if not nothing? She wasn't very receptive towards this but she know that I really really need to rest my throat or rather, my vocal chord. It is a rather big dilemna for her.
I met shu ning on the way to school today and she mention to me that shu xi got it worse than me. Shu xi just woke up one fine day unable to speak. And even after her throat recover, she couldn't speak as her brain had forgotten how to do it and she had to go for some speech therapy thingy.
Had a rather quiet day in school today with just one lesson. I finally brought a new bag from some shop call Graphite in bugis junction. Yong jing say its a pote bag. I not sure but its one of those bag where you can wear it as a sling bag or you can carry the handle or slinging your arm in the handle. Hard to describe. But when mum and dad first saw it on the sunday morning in the wee hour of 7am, I could hear them discussing on if I had brought a lady's bag in my bed with half of my soul still lost in the dreamy wonderland.

P/s:I only realise that this bag is a bit too small for me. But just as well, it will force me to travel light. Maybe I should have brought the bigger version instead.

Lost and Found

Last week was really horrible. I really lost it big big time on thursday, being unreasonable and grumpy and wangxin suffer at my hands on friday. It is weird that sometimes, I can still be so childish and be actually angry at people whom I don't really know.
I lodged a complaint about a taxi uncle who actually cheated my cab fare on saturday, but my heart went soft yesterday. What if he lost his job? I hope I did the right thing in withdrawing my complaint.
Badminton yesterday was fun with some new people that I just met. First time in a long while badminton feels really fun again. The touch of the grip in my hand, the nice sound of my string hitting the shuttlecocks and some well-executed smashes, plus all the drop-shots. I have gotten so used to my friends' playing style, thus it was refreshing to see some uncertainty on the courts. They are not as strong as edmund and maybe even wangxin's and I bet that wangxin and me can already give them a run for their money in doubles but playing with them is really enjoyable.
Had dinner with dear in the night. We order quite a lot and I ended up eating most of the food, even her share. She said it was because her appetite had grew smaller already but I figure it was because she had a late and very full lunch at 2.30pm. Haha.
