I fucking hurt my back while packing up yesterday and when the pain hits, it gets pretty unbearable. It shoots all the way from my lower back down my left leg and the pain is damn paralyzing and it hurts more sitting down than standing up. *sigh* I thought I could clear 2 days of leave but I guess that’s not viable seeing how impossible things here are getting.
Did I mention that I was so into packing that at the end of it (as in the end of my packing session yesterday, not END of packing cos there’s still tons to pack. I’m like a fucking mover lah. Anyway I digress), I noticed that my thumb had bits of stuff on it. I have no idea how to explain it but it had a ‘towel’ effect. Hahahaha. I thought because I was using so much scotch tape, probably the glue part had rubbed off on my finger or something. I tried to rub it off but it wouldn’t come off, neither did washing help. But because it was so ‘textured’, I kept rubbing at it unconsciously and it was until much later at nite when I decided to take a closer look at it and lo and behold! I realized the ‘stuff’ was my skin. I know its damn TMD gross. I dunno what I did to make it this way, but I could see my flesh under it all lah. It wasn’t very bad therefore it didn’t hurt that much and it didn’t bleed. Queer stuff. You guys should have taken a look at it yesterday. Trust me, it wasn’t that gross. I just have no idea how it could become like that. It’s like multiple baby cuts all over the thumb, but not deep enough to bleed, yet enough to make the skin stand on ends. It’s still a little bit like that now so my finger just feels really rough and it looks a little red and raw on some parts. Ha!
Went for class yesterday after work and I was a tad late. Seeing how things are on the first day of class, I think it’s pretty impossible to skip any classes. Dammit. Today there’s another class. I’m so fucking tired.
After class yesterday, I tried taking a cab home but the queue was horrendous. Therefore I called a cab and by the time I got home, cab fare was $18. KNN. Because I hadn’t eaten the whole day other than the muffins and chin chow the cleaner aunty bought me in the morning, I was starving so I went to pick Jane up and we went to ECP.
In the car park, there was this guy who waved us down and apparently his car couldn’t start so I let him cable to my car but it still didn’t work. The poor boy looked so flustered lah. But I dunno how I can help either so me and Jane just went ahead to Subway to tapao a sandwich. When he came back, he was still there so we offered to drop him somewhere so he can get help or get a cab or something and when he suggested Lavender, we nearly fainted. I’m going to hang around East Coast Park and you ask me to drop you off at Lavender? You gotta be kidding me. And I really don’t understand his logic. He didn’t want to spend money taking cab or calling a tow truck, but he wanted to go Lavender to buy a new battery cos he ‘thinks’ there’s still a shop which is still open. Bravo. So Jane & I asked him what happens if the fault didn’t lie with the battery and he said ‘should be the battery cos I changed everything else in the car within the past 2 years’. Wah so rich to change everything but no money to call a tow truck or take a cab?! But anyways, too bad for him cos there’s nothing we can do to help him.
We went to Bedok side of ECP to have our sandwich and my back was killing me the entire time. By around 2am, I knew I needed to get home oready because fatigue just hit me suddenly. I told Jane I could feel my ride turning into a pumpkin oready. Haha. Cinderella’s curfew was at midnite, mine was at 2am. I was struggling not to fall asleep at the wheel even though it’s such a short distance to get home. This sucks man.
By the way, I’m not sure when my computer will be packed up. It’s supposed to be today so if you don’t see me blogging after today, you’ll know why. Haha. I’m going to be so damn bored at work without my com lah.
I can’t wait for my tai tai life coming up in the next week or 2. Me & my bitches will all not be working and we can do what we do best everyday – 吃东西,买东西 day in and day out. Can’t wait. I fear for my bank account though. Haha.
