Time sure flies
Ok still puffy on the nose and cheeks area. And still feeling like I haf tissues stuffed up my upper lips. But looking back, my condition did improve a lot over the last 4 weeks.
HuiKeng was so cute yesterday. I was early for FIIM class and then she came over, sat down next to me and said in a very serious tone.
HK: "Yu Hui, I dunno...but..but..u look very different after putting on braces..It's like it looks like you but somehow different but I can't point out the difference."
Like how cute la Hui Keng!
She's not the only one la. Daryl din recognize me and I din bother to open my mouth to say hi either. Tired of opening my mouth nowadays. But he looked at me, i looked at him. He din show a sign that he recognized me. Hahahaha...
It's actually quite fun to haf frens u noe walk past you and not recognizing you.
It's Week 10 and that means presentations and all kinda shit are starting to pour in. I haven presented for 2 weeks. Last week and this week coz I am still under the "shut up" MC. I can talk better now, but I can't talk for long and I probably still need to work on my volume. I haf problems trying to pronounce properly. It makes me tired and it makes my cheeks swell. Talking was never so undesirable in my entire life lo. I have most prob 2 presentations on Week 12, 1 on Week 13 and 1 on Week 14, and Week 14 I have Ethics Final Exam. Great.
I think I am getting a bit complacent these days. For the 1st 2 weeks of my recovery period, I was very careful with the hours I slp, the minimal chewing that I give myself and I was very careful about recovering well. Now I try to resume normal lifestyle of a typical SMU student (slp really little and keeping staring at the laptop doing presentations and reports), and then reality kicks in.
It suddenly dawns to me, my health condition hasn't really caught up. I may be able to eat better food compared to the suckish liquid diet I had 2-3 weeks ago, but in reality, I am still in my recovery period. I get tired very fast and I still look pale.
I guess I am pushing myself a little too hard and too early. And then it dawns to me how important health is. Without it, no matter how many great opportunities or great plans you have laid in front of you, you have no ability to take them on.
Kinda remind me of a quote I read off somewhere.
"If life is a 100%, the 1 is the health, and the other 2 zeros would be wealth and fame. Without the 1, the other 2 will plain zeros."
How very true.
Ok break over. Time to go back to class. And I need to start working on my Monetary Economics final term paper. Argh.
Oh ya, my current addiction is : Hana Kimi aka 花样少年少女. Airing on Ch U weekdays 7pm. Not that I am such a faithful supporter since I missed like at least half the show due to constant meetings..aahaha..but it's so funny. Makes people happy just watching it. Will cover that in my blog when I am free. Buaha.
