“interesting”

18 july

happening day.
7.45am. my dad dropped me off as usual at the mrt station. i was about to take my bag when i realised the car moved and the next thing i felt was: something had crushed against my left foot, that something, CAR TYRE.
yes!!! you didnt hear me wrong, i didnt type anything wrong. the tyre rammed across my entire foot. in a state of shock, i didnt feel any pain. my dad (who was also shocked as he felt the car had went over a “hump”) asked me if he had hurt my foot. i replied: No. i was too shock to react. there wasnt pain… my foot was numb, i felt nothing actually.

i stood in the train cabin, constantly staring at my feet, never stopping to wriggle my toes. the scene kept repeating itself in my brain: WAH BIANG, my foot just got ran over by a CAR !!! 1600cc nissan sunny…that aint too small a car right? OMG !!!
still i felt no pain, but i was worried if my bones might have cracked ?!?! i msg Freak and Queen, calmly, that my foot got crushed. think i scared both of them….and i just continue to walk to CS. (thank god. my foot was really okie…brina said i shouldnt have move so much in case i’ll make worse any internal cracks or injuries).

well, that’s only the start of a “series of happening events”. after downloading my emails (still wriggling the toes, in a state of shockness), i saw that the US PC had blown his top. Haiii….bad start. By then i was losing concentration in preparing for my interview….when the time was up to leave for the interview, i said to myself: forget it, just go in and be prepared to be whacked. True enough, the interview flopped…i took no more than 15mins. the interviewers were struggling to think on what other questions can they ask me, finally they gave up and decide to go for their early lunch…

haii…i called Queen for lunch. while waiting for her, the rain poured. i couldnt walk to ORQ in the rain to see the doc. Well, at least lunch was good; Queen accompanied me for a vegetarian lunch at the Golden Bridge. Finally when the rain weakened, i hurried to ORQ. and DAMN it, the receptionist said they were closed for lunch till 2pm. TMD. it was only 1.25pm at that time!!!! ARGHHHH… i really thought i wanted to go back home and hide for the rest of the day in case more HAPPENING stuff happens. hmmm subsequently….things improved…. i saw edmund (smiles) while heading to the clinic in Republic Plaza. i waited for almost 2 hours……20min to get registered; 20min of waiting time before i see the doc; 5 min of consultation –> the doctor was doubtful of my freak accident, he put a BIG exclamation on the consultation card. his remarks: left foot RAN OVER by car !!!; 10min of xray; 15min of waiting time; 2min of doctor’s review; another 15min to get the medicine…oh well, i had lost track of the time spent (or wasted). the only heng thing was: my foot was perfectly fine, thank god!

the call with the US PC also turned out fine. he had simmered down…and agree to give me the system printouts (unwillingly but the info he provided subsequently was incomplete). by then, i was feeling so dizzy…i couldnt stand properly. guess the medicine came into effect. i struggled to keep my balance to get home and i just plonked onto bed after a bath.

what a happening day.
