Hoho, it's been quite awhile since my last blog. Well, for me, life has been tranquil with no dramatic ups and downs. & that's just the way I love it. Simple and carefree.
Jw was sick the whole of last week ever since he got back from Hawaii. Gosh, is the "mo dan" coming back? Doc says it's now a viral infection, and not swollen tonsillitis. Sometimes I get confused by the many different things they say. =( So what is the cause of poor jw's suffering? Haiz. He was on MC for one whole week. Good to know that he can rest well at home, but saddened to see him so weak and see him in pain.
Leela (my boss) was such a kind soul and she showed so much concern for jw when I told her about it. She even went to google the illness and tried to find out the cause! Gosh. So nice. & she passed me a namecard for this private clinic that I can bring jw to, but I jolly well know that he won't go cos' he wun get funded at a private clinic. Muahaha.
Anyway, back to my weekend, I had a fun and enjoyable time with jw. Can't remember when was the last time I cycled, but well, we went cycling at ECP last Saturday. He was feeling much better already. Hee. Somehow, it just felt so wonderful enjoying the breeze and basking in the sun. (Yeah I admit I was afraid of getting sunburnt and getting more tanned than I already am!) But, I felt really happy just cycling slowly beside him, and watching people fish at the jetty. Life just seems so peaceful and simple that day, and isn't how the way it should be always?After cycling, we made our way to his ah ma's house. It was good to gather with his family once again, and this time round we even played mahjong together. Gosh, I felt so bad when I zi mo 5 tai the first round that I sat down. How come Lady Luck chose to shine on me at the wrong time.. Haha.. I got "reprimanded" by them for robbing them of $24 each so soon. Lalala. But I know, (or rather, I hope) they are just kidding. =) Anyway I passed the baton to jw soon and I sat down beside him to watch. Hehe. Eye power sia. In the end we won $100.
Sunday it was mahjong time again. Haha. This time with Mummy & Popo, cos Popo simply lovvveeesss mahjong and we are the only ones who will fork out the time to accompany her on weekends to play mj. I love to see their happy faces when we go out for lunch/dinner or when we play mj. It just makes everything so worthwhile.Mummy found out about my thalassemia disease yesterday. Hoho, not because I divulged it, but because she saw a letter from KK (Thalassemia Registry) and she demanded to know what it is. I know she's just worried about me, and there's no way she's gonna get over it unless I let her know the contents. Oh well, so might as well. So it's called Di Zhong Hai Pin Xue Zheng ('Mediterranean Sea' Blood Disorder) in Chinese. Such a nice name. Haha. But I assured Mummy I'll be fine. So no worries.
At night, we brought Popo back to jw's house to dine with his family. Hehe. She was so pai sey, but we insisted cos' if not she's gonna have to eat alone. His parents just brewed hong zao jiu (some red wine that can be used to cook soup, I think Fuzhou pple like it?) and they gave popo one bottle. She simply loved it!! & she loved the dinner dishes too. Hoho. Ain't it nice to have a gathering like this? Too bad mummy missed out cos' she went karaoke with her frenz.
Rightey. That's the end of my weekend. Looking forward to next Sunday, where we are going to celebrate Mummy's 53th Birthday. =) Cheerio.
