am.severely.jetlagged

am bummed that i missed my post-dinner icecream treat with dick & carol just coz i was asleep... i was convinced by mom that i needed a nap and i was completely knocked out at 5pm... when i woke up, im my blindness, i thought it was 7:10am so i started washing up, looking for breakfast nibblets & played with my dogs a bit and realized dang! its only 1:50am! (must have been 1:35 when i woke up...)

and now im wide awake at what's equivalent to 12 noon back in US.... *cue for sound effects "kua-kua-kua..."*

must be getting old or what. i never had such issues in the past. and oh! did i already say i am severely spoilt rotten at home? my food cravings will naturally become everyone's next meal.. wow! the perks of being away... so far, i've had meatball noodles, beehoon & other random snacks..

and on the teeth, bad bad news... i need to remove all (4) of my wisedom teeth.. Junkai told me that he was drinking his own blood hours after he removed his, just for the record, he only removed ONE and my threshold of pain is wayyy lower than his. so i guess i'm going opt for general anesthesia if they can even get me into the operating theatre in time. which also means i will be all swollen & bleedy either over CNY or during my bangkok trip which stinks BIGGGG time.. =( and the best part was when my brutally honest dentist told me without any form of padding or preparation he has to refer me to his best surgeon who handles all his "crisis" cases. because my roots are very deep, big and far apart. and they are growing into my second-wisest teeth (what the world do you call the next one after the wisedom teeth?? tried asking boon but all he told me was how glad he was that i am still hilarious.. great.)

see? quite jia-lat right??

and jumping onto an entirely new topic and pain-relieving subject, bangkok: my annual shopping mecca was granted when i casually mentioned to mom that i would be alone on valentines day this year. which doesn't really matter to me actually (and the reason constitutes an entirely different blog entry altogether) BUT it was just like a flippant comment. and my darling parents, bless their heart, booked a 4-day trip whisking me to then land of smile, shoes, bikinis & padthai. yippee!!!

  10. Your parents are the sweetest! And um do you mean the molars? Although second-wisest is a much more sensible name is you ask me... also, who's your dental surgeon? I recommend the Prof who heads Dentistry at Alexandra Hospital, because she's really nice and professional and gives you a syringe to clean out the gunk and probably won't charge as much as if you did it privately. Good luck! I hope you like tau hway!

  14. Heng ah! Otherwise no point going home if you're only going to be able to eat tau hway right?? :) Myra Elliot took out my boyfriend's teeth and he could eat cheesecake (plus the biscuit base) on the same day so I'm sure she's very good. Or he's just very greedy, heh.
