Fry-Day

All along I always thought that losing my hearing in either ear is small issue; I was wrong. For the whole of last week, my left ear couldn't function and even a visit to the doctor near my house couldn't fix it - He gave me eardrops to dissolve the earwax and antibiotics (Whatever for?) Tried all kinds of methods to get the left ear going - King Kong dug loads of hardened earwax with an earpick, but there were still much left in the ear canal; Fat Boy tried using a syringe (which I bought for 45 cents in Guardian Pharmacy) filled with water to push the earwax out, but to no avail. Finally, I seek a second opinion in another doctor and this time round, he used a suction gun to extract the hardened earwax and I must say that the whole process was painful, despite the doctor's assurance >_<" It was finally over in 15 minutes and I was so glad that I could hear with my left ear again! Yay! : )

Last Wednesday, I met King Kong for dinner at Newton Circus. We had sambal kangkong, stingray and 2 plates of half-cooked cockles (Hello, Hepatitis A!) Loved the bloodied fat and tender flesh of cockles...yummy! After that, we proceeded to meet up with Adeline, Veggie Girl and Sunshine Boy at TCC in Circular Street. Enjoyed the in-depth conversation revolving the topic of two-timing (though I must say the act itself is pretty tiring!) while sipping banana smoothie : D~ Really hope that Veggie Girl will pull out of the sticky situation soon!

As for yesterday, left the office at 12:30pm and had mixed rice at Scissors Curry Rice (The mixture of gravy on rice is so fantastic!) before seeking for the famous Joo Chiat fortune teller. Was quite appalled by her accuracy in her description of my character (How did she know so much about me just by looking at my 8 characters?) Anyway, I need to go back to her sometime next week and hope things improve for me : ) As it was still early, I went for my treatment (Brrrr!) before having dinner at KFC and a horror movie (Rule #1 - It sucks big time). Saw Sunshine Boy and Veggie Girl sitting at Pastamania after walking out of the theatre and we had a short chat before going home : ) (Life is full of coincidences eh?)

Regardless, I am so happy that today is finally Friday! : ) The server's down again and well, here I am, slacking away : ) Yay! After work, I am going to Brewerkz with the guys for a pint or two. Wonderful! : ) I am so looking forward to 6pm tonight!
