Here's My Story

I somehow like this Morellia's voiceline. Badass? Corny? 😁 " I take only what I must but I must take everything. "

Due to the earlier departure from KL, I estimated that we had to wake up latest by 5am to prepare to leave the hotel to reach airport by 5.50am. I was worried about this because Ban and I do not usually wake up this early. I tried practising sleeping earlier to eventually waking up at 5am but it was so difficult. Think the earliest I woke up was 7.30am but on a more consistent basic, it was around 8.30am. My sister then suggested that I aimed for a more achievable time i.e. 7am. Sleeping 2 hours less (7am -> 5am) is manageable. I tried right up to a week before flight but still failed :( I told my sisters that if I kept dreading to wake up that early, didn't that mean I regret picking that choice? I then had an idea and fortunately both Ban and my mum agreed to it: change flight. Unfortunately, there is simply no other day flight i.e. left only night flights. Hence I wanted business class so that I could sleep for at least a few hours since its seat can be reclined fully flat. ...

Yummy statistics :D (1) Hours watched: 202 (2) Distinct days visited: 202. The same as (1)? @@ (3) Top 5 categories: Marvel Rivals, Overwatch 2, Deadlock, Tekken 8, Minion Masters I don't really watch Deadlock and Tekken 8. Just lurked in supertf's and voll's streams to support them. (4) Hours watched for top 5 streamers: supertf (78), DanielFenner (17), Somnus (12), Necros (12), ShartCandy (12) (5) 294 chats sent. Seldom.   

Wow, it's been more than 15 month s since I last blogged about my mum's eye. I guess I didn't blog about subsequent follow-up appointments because nothing much changed: left eye had slight swelling but not affecting nerves or swelling, continue to use eyedrop but changed to Systane Complete preservative-free, and still attend follow-up appointments. I was supposed to bring her to Oasis in November but I was unwell. Fortunately, Ban was able to bring her. There was some good news: the swelling slightly reduced. Yay! Next appointment is 6 months later. 

During the one-month period  in between sessions, pain was triggered by Palm pressed down on exercise mat to open the chest. Slicing chicken/pork vertically. Horizontal movement when scooping fish meat off its bone. The pain was only slight. I believed that it was still an improvement. Lee, the therapist, tested the thumb/wrist and then the arm. He postulated that the issue might be elsewhere e.g. the elbow. He then proceeded to massage the hand and a bit of the shoulder, while regularly asking feedback from me (whether it was painful or not). Finally, he asked me to treat a 1kg dumbbell as a knife and to do the slicing motion. It still elicited pain but very slight. Then he adjusted my top right back and voila! The test didn't elicit any pain @@ As for the exercise regime, still do everything but adjsut as follows: (1) Do the thumbs-up exercise (nicknamed Y shape thumbs-up) on exercise mat by lying face-down and lifting up the body slightly. x30 (2) Do (1) but with T shape i.e. h...

A nearby clinic underwent renovation. After reopening, I noted that its name remains the same with the same two doctors listed on their window panel. Recently, I consulted the doctor there but she was neither the doctor listed. I also noticed that the organisatio chart inside the clinic listed this doctor as the sole doctor. Curious, I asked the staff at the dispensary, "So Dr L is no longer here, huh?" They responded, "We also don't know." Huh??
