Fri night: Went shopping last Friday nite after work with my best friend =) bought 3 shorts from iluma but end up 1 of it didn't suit me well and I had to go back on sat nite and change it to a bigger size for my sister. Went bugis street also and I bought a pair of legging. Over at bugis junction, I fell in love with a casio watch =) that cost $250. Considering whether I should buy.........hmm I REALLY REALLY like it lor!!! We went suntec also and I bought a super nice vest from cotton on at only $10, it's a real deal man!!! and also a nice top to go with either jeans or legging. After that we had dinner at Mac then girls talk at esplanade till about 1am.
Sat: Despite being super tired cos less than 5 hours of sleep, I drag myself to go for class. (whole day lor) After that at night, went to paragon to check out something from toys r us and visit claire's grandma (hope she get well soon, it always pains me to see patient in the hospital) So coincidently, I meet Erick as I was crossing the road to Paragon from Mt E. He changed a new car and was on his way to music dreamer for performance. L called me again, and we had a short chat on the way home in the car, when I reach home, we chat again but think he tired lor cos he was talking nonsense....haha. And at 11 plus, my long time fren who had not contact with me for quite sometime, msg me to say want to return me the $80 dollars that she borrowed few years back (surprised lor) and she even got me a box of my fav Ben and Jerry ice-cream with 12 mini tubs inside the box.
Sun: Went for breakfast with parents, then read newspaper, listen to radio, surf net, chat with best fren and update blog. going for dinner later and recharging for tmr as I have to go back to work.
P/S: Going to be real busy soon as assignments are coming in and there are work to be done in the classroom too. Looking forward to Chinese New Year!!!!!!!!

It's really great as I really have the full support from my parents who really pamper me (but not in the sense of all my shopping items....haha). they really take good care of me when I fell sick cos of the highhhh stress level........not to mention me fainting twice, once in my class during course(my lecturer and course mate really got a shock from me) and another time at home :P (sorry mum and dad, i gave your twice the shock).
19th September 2009--- My dearest maternal grandma passed away at the age of 91 (if I remembered correctly)........so sad...........................I received the news a day before Steph wedding thus I could not help her. Sometimes I tell myself when u wanna do something, u really gonna do it fast and do it now cos I actually plan to go and see my maternal grandma the next day after Steph's wedding...........but soooooo superrrrrrr saddddddddd cos I never ever will have the chance to go and see her again hold and stroke her hands again (tears just roll when ever I think about this.....but well life still gonna move on rite........)

But I was jus trying to get my feelings known to u......maybe I shouldn't have.....maybe I should jus keep it to myself.....could that have been better?I LOVE you and I REALLY do.......is that wrong? Now I am trying to live with this pain........this pain that's gonna stay in my heart no matter what I am going to do or say.....nothing is gonna change the situation I guess......this is the pain that one can feel truly when one has true deep feelings for the other party..........love hurts...........I learn to let go but each time I always failed......jus when I think I am starting to feel numb the feeling will come back stronger than what I expected........is this what I am going to live with for the rest of my life......I need someone to come save me out of this situation......but who can.........maybe someone who my love for him will be stronger than what I have towards you.......but where is this him............I am tired...........very tired and confused each time I think abt this.......they say time will heal all wounds but what abt the scars..............

vocal cord nodules
Thursday 23-10-2008 8.25pm
I went to a ENT specialist @ Mount Elizabeth Hospital last Sat. My ENT specialist who is an expert in voice disorder, diagnosed me with vocal cord nodules.
What are vocal cord nodules?
Vocal cord nodules are callous-like bumps on the vocal cords. They can form on one or both of the cords. They usually are located on the front 1/3 of the vocal cord, and range in size from a pinhead to a split pea. During normal speech, the vocal cords should press firmly together. However, if nodules are present the cords cannot close completely. Therefore, extra air escapes and the voice sounds hoarse and breathy as a result.
What causes vocal cord nodules?
Any one or more of the following can contribute to the development of vocal cord nodules:
1) Misuse of the voice
The use of an incorrect pitch, volume, or quality
Inadequate breath support
Excessive tension in the neck muscles when speaking
2) Abuse of the voice
Excessive shouting, screaming cheering or crying
Strained vocalizations (for example, sounds used to imitate animal noises or motors)
Excessive loud talking
Hard vocal attacks (starting words abruptly)
Excessive coughing or throat clearing
3) Other factors
Chronic (long standing) upper respiratory infections or allergies
Exposure to smoking
Reflux (stomach acid coming up the swallowing tube)
Endocrine or Hormonal imbalance
Fatigue
Allergies
Personality or general adjustment of the person
How do vocal cord nodules develop?
Vocal abuse and misuse cause the vocal cords to close with excessive force (i.e. bang together). This may result in the formation of vocal nodules at the point of maximum contact. As the nodules begin to form, a slight reddening can be noted on the margin of the cord. This reddening is soon followed by a localized swelling or thickening on the edge of the cord. Finally, a definite nodule or bump develops and becomes harder and more fibrotic with time, just like a callous can form on your hand if you use a shovel without gloves.
Thus I had to go for voice therapy during the sch holidays. I hope that will help and I really wish that my voice will be back to it's original form soon but at the rate that the children behave.....haiz....I think my voice will only get worst........trying not to shout in class but YES!!!! it is very difficult........kids are really naughty rascals...............and they DO NOT LISTEN!!! Occupational Hazard.............it really is as according to the doctor is a common problem in teachers.........haiz.......this is what I get in return for my passion...............What can I do..............the doctor says for this problem to heal, other than the therapy class, a lot depends on the patient themselves.
Oh yes, my DPT course is starting soon.....looking forward to it but at the same time a bit worried about coping with work and course.........just can only say I will do my best and take one step at a time.
