Shit lor... I'm like falling sick, can feel the beginnings of a fever and sore throat. Damn!

Is it the H1N1 virus? Nene, think wun be so zhun wan lar. I've been to NUH the past two days to visit my mum-in-law since she was warded, and the hospital's so-called measures are damn cock lar. All you are required to do is register your name and write the ward you are visiting. Never even bother to take temperature sia, liddat I write fake wan also ne'er mind right?

One patient is only allowed 2 visitors at a time. They posted some part-timers outside the wards, and I think those kids are already doing their best, but I still saw some patients with up to 5 family members beside their bed. Wat to do? People never acknowledge the severity of the situation till it happens to someone close to them or themselves. Then they will start pointing fingers to push the blame to someone else.

I mean, wat happened to social responsiblity and civic-mindedness? This is like one of my pet peeves staying in Singapore with other Singaporeans. There are really black sheep among us who constantly show the tak glam side of themselves and bring disgrace to us.

Well, back to meself awright? I'm like guzzling Manuka honey and praying I dun fall sick, cos' I can't afford to! I usually try to take care of myself well bcos I've got these medical issues which have been getting worse since the past year.

First off, I have this constipation/diarrhoea problem. I get constipated for days at a time and then I will have to take medicine to make me go. Now usually these medicines contain some mild laxative effect, makes sense rite, if not how to go? So if I start going, I'll end up with diarrhoea. Si bey cham right, I'm quite worried that I'll end up with colon cancer one day.

Secondly, it's my stupid nose. I've always been the "sensitive" type of person, like if I sit on grass, I'll break out in rashes. If I consume too much alcohol, I will also break out in rashes. If I do spring cleaning, I'll start sneezing and my nose runs continuously. I think you get the picture right? So recently, it's gotten pretty bad, I started sneezing out bloody mucous all the time, and I couldn't sleep well at night cos' of my nasal fluids back-flowing. Emperor bought me an air purifier for our bedroom and my coughing fits in the middle of the night abated for a while. But then they started again and the doctor had to put me on steroid nasal drips and an inhaler cos' I was developing asthma, like my coughs were the wheezing type.

Let's hope the Manuka honey is enough for now, otherwise I'll have to pop some pills to sleep tonight. cannot rest somemore leh, got driving lessons tonight.

In case you din noe, Manuka honey is from bees who feed on the flowers of the Manuka bush, also known as the "Tea Tree" to produce a honey that has anti-bacterial properties.
