Sunday, March 8, 2009
Last Sunday I had a bad throat.
Then Monday I had a cough.
Tuesday my voice started slipping away into the high-pitched squeaks one normally associates with mice (not MICES) and other rodents.
Wednesday, I went to school with a football-sized lump in my throat - okay it felt like a football. Had to write on notebook, but 5N1 didn't take me seriously so I had to start talking. -.- Then they laughed at my squeaky voice. T_T
Thursday was worse, the lump was still there and the squeaks were more uneven than before. Sian. Went to see the doctor at night and got a mountainload of medication. Took medication and fell asleep.
Friday morning woke up with fever. Yay. =.=" Sick the whole day. Mum made some weird luo han guo drink thingy for me which smelled like dried plant and tasted like liquid pi pa gao without the sugar. The only other time I ever lost my voice was 2006, when I was studying in the seminary in Punggol. One of my professors (this elderly priest who was like a forgetful grandpa to me) heard my squeaky voice and said, you know what you need, you need luo han guo, and I was like *squeak*what'sthat*squeak* and he said, never mind, you don't talk, I will drive you to the place to buy, and he
drove me all the way from Punggol to the market near Queen St to go buy the thingy! So nice right? Anyway thanks to him I got my voice back in like one night. I don't know why this time it's determined to stay away, even with Western medicine on the side. Bah. My friend from church choir said I sound like a boy undergoing puberty. Stupid woman. Huh.
Anyway, to people who tagged my board, thanks! I have linked (almost) all of you up. And Greg (my COUGHtopCOUGH student) please don't start wars on my board hor. Thank you. Listen to Patrick! Patrick is a good boy :)
I was really touched by you guys who messaged or just asked how I was and whether I was feeling better. Lots of squeaky-voiced love to you guys, you know who you are :) thanks for making my miserable day/weekend nicer.
OMG tomorrow must teach! With this 14-year-old-boy-hitting-puberty voice! Argh.

"stupider" is not a word! It's not! Neither is "stupidest"!
*screams of frustration and despair* Lincoln's dictionary has shaken my world to its very foundations...

*runs away to cry in a corner and psychotically pat her Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, which DOESN'T HAVE THE WORD STUPIDER IN IT*

I am listening to Justin Timberlake. I listen to this song whenever I feel cheated by someone. I have been feeling cheated quite often lately.
Anyway what have you guys been up to during the holidays (or pseudo-holidays, since most of you still have to come back to school)? I have been around for the Sec 3 Holiday Programme (which some people *looks pointedly at Wanrong* have been PONTENG-ing). Now I am still in school doing preparations for 2009. Yay! 2009! Omg there is so much work to do.
Oh! Birthday wishes!
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAYCHUN HENG JOSHUA AND HEMA!Lol soon I must post for Min Er and Wei Jie too.
Oh I changed my template since a lot of people complained the other one was so hard to use. Am hoping to incorporate Brenda's picture into a new skin. My blogskin pro (aka Yew Liang) is working on it. Yay!
I want to form a band. Just to sing one song - Avril Lavigne's
Happy Ending. Anyone interested?
