recent news
updates in my not that interesting (but very good at the moment) life:
~my doggie is ALIVE. thank god. the little fluffy idiot swallowed a durian seed. half of it to be sure, but it is still a durian seed. the doctor was like, "he threw up again. this does not look good". and then he proceeded to tell us his chance of survival was 50/50 because if the object blocking up his intestine had punctured a hole in the intestine wall, he would most probably have to be put down. then we of course bawled and prayed and hoped to jesus he would be fine. thank you all for your prayers by the way. it really saw him through.
the operation was necessary, but together with the barium x-ray tests, and miscellanous costs, the entire affair set my poor dad back by RM1355. but the most important thing is he is fine now, and on the mend. although he does smell pretty awful, not surprisingly of course, and he can't be washed till after his stitches come out. sorry champ, u ain't getting no kisses or hugs from anyone till you are clean again.
~i am flying on the 9th of February. YES, it is very soon, less than 2 weeks actually, and YES it is before chinese new year. went for the briefing on friday at KLCC, in true petronas fashion, we started an hour late, and ended an hour after schedule. the place was FREEZING. and to make it worse, yong ling and timothy were playing footsie with each other under the table. and i was between them. doy.
then dad took me to meet his colleagues. expected comments: "wahh, so big already ah your daughter!" and "ohh, follow your daddy ahh, do petroleum engineering also! seldom girls do engineering hor!" his immediate team was a nice bunch though, all young people.
~my preparation for australia is almost complete. outstanding items: one black pair of slacks (my current one got discolourized when i mistakenly put bleach into the pail after being told to put CLOROX in the water by popo twice - shows what happens when you do things blindly without thinking. *smacks own head*), one formal blouse, one mini rice cooker, medical report. my medical check up is tomorrow, and i opted to go all the way to peejay to wen ting's clinic, since they have a lady doctor there to do the procedure. after hearing horror stories of strange men, albeit doctors, touching patients' boobs to examine them for lumps all in the name of health, i'd rather not go in that particular direction.
~care group just started being held in my house, but the sad news is, we are MULTIPLYING, meaning, a new care group will be held in USJ 3, beginning in march, and some of us are going to move there. sigh. i guess it's for the best, but i can't help feeling 16 people is not too many for one group.
