yea man. that pretty much sums up my awesome fantabulous wonderful BEST YEAR OF MY LIFE!

oh dear
woke up with a terrible L neck pain. looked almost like a wry neck. minor movt of the neck to the L side brought on pain instantly.
it was so painful tt
a)when i walked to my gp, i had walk very slowly
b)i had to keep my neck extremely still to make sure there ain't any sudden movements
c)when there were sudden movt, i had to stop in my track and juz hold my neck
d)my chin was rotated to the left to ease off the pain - hence i looked funny when i walk back
e)teared in the clinic cos it was so painful and tiring to hold the neck up
f)eating breakfast -beehoon,was extremely troublesome
h)lying down on bed was OMG EXTREMELY TOUGH - like cos alot of eccentric contractions of the neck was required- it was SO PAINFUL
i)took a gazillion of pills

thankfully, after my first nap (12 to 3.15), it got slightly better
after my 2nd nap (4 to 6), it get better tt i can rotate and side flex and rotate more towards my left. and waking up was easier too
seriously hopes it gets better cos i wana go for my xmas party tmr!!!!

and i received this!


yippee! right after i top up for the postage! :))))))

BATAM TRIP :)

what an experience i must say! had several of my firsts over the 2D1N trip!

day1:
departure was kinda rush
ferry ride was tolerable
arrival at hotel - drinks were :S
bowled for 2 games cos our room wasn't available yet.. bowling was- alrite.. one strike! haha.
got our room - spacious. clean. decent. good view of the pool too.
went to nagoya hill mall - had a&w (so-so lor. nothing fantastic.) bought several stuff- fake gucci sunglasses(even comes with the casing!), chelsea merchandises, teddy bear biscuits!(reminds me so much of the ones i had in HK! yippee! love 'em!)
went back hotel
SPA - OMG. what a sensational spa it was. it was my first time doing spa so i wasn't sure of all the procedures.. did it with dear yh, whom was slightly more experienced. but still, she didn't warn me abt it! so the exciting parts were having to change into the sarong in that 'tent'-super open space can! then lie down. did a scrub first. finished the whole of the back of the body. and then have to turn ard and lie supine! omg. i was only in my disposable undies! omg man. then i accidentally saw yh's... haha. but only a blurred vision. then the person even scrubbed my breast. OMG. i so didn't see that coming. alrite. that i survived. prett open abt it. did i mention it was kinda in a open area when the walls of the 'room' were juz bamboo stick-like hanging horizontally like can see the outside from inside and vice versa! eW
then came the worst part. or shld i see the funniest cum scariest part. showering naked with yh. oh dear, we were so silly laughing cos it was just so extremely awkward!
the rest of the spa was a massage in exactly the same manner as the scrub and followed by a bath in the bathtub- yes with yh again. naked. well, thank goodness for disposable undies and towel!
this was definitely a first for me! lesson learnt is to do it SINGLE in the future! haha. but yea, it did kinda brought us slightly closer on a physical level. HAHA
after the spa - pizza and pasta at the cafe
did a facial in our room, caught survivor's season finale, and zonked out

day2:
breakfast buffet - not fantastic. giving it 5/10 is juz me being generous.
swimming. well more like chilling in the pool
went sauna (my first. though extremely unsuccessful cos i didn't break a sweat at all)and dipped in the jacuzzi for awhile
checked out
had pop mee (cup noodles) while waiting for the bus to arrive.
played snooker!!! another first for me too! haha. it was pretty embarrassing cos we had no idea how to play it. in the end we cheated like crazy and by hook AND by crook, we got all the balls in! HAHA
went to ferry terminal, boarded the ferry and bye bye batam!
reached home safe and sound:) slept like a pig though. hehe

yea. so that was my rather interesting and definitely UNFORGETTABLE batam trip! :)
like my msn nick- it's good to be home!

NEW BLOGSKIN UP

thought of changing it since the last time i changed it. the prev one was too greeny and flowery and the words were often too small! shan't spoil ur eyes and mine!

anyway, it's been ages since i last blogged! and strangely enough, its not becos i was too busy. in fact, i think this sem i've been pretty slacked. haven't read up on all the lecture notes yet. oh dear. so much projects to do. and i really wish someone else would take charge just because.

oh wells. christmas is here! and it's finally our last term break of the freaking last semester in nyp. even the OTs had their final day of sch ytd! how shiok huh.
holiday plans: gg on batam trip with yh and des:) hopes everything will turn out well and we'll have a great relaxing time there!

deg conversion: not much of news on it, except tt i have to resubmit my application after the final results. can't ask for more except to maintain a 3.0 or at least pull up to 3.2

someone proposed a trip and i was invited. hmm. dunno if i should take up the offer.
anyone interested in a USA trip instead?
