The healing is getting well. I went back for a post-op check yesterday and the doctor says my eyes are healing perfectly. However, i realised that the eye drops are mucking up my sense of smell. After applying the drops every 2 hours or so, i can feel the bitterness through my nose and it deadens my appetite. Yes, i can somehow feel the bitterness and I wanted to vomit all the time. It is good news to me. It means I can control my appetite which I thought might be uncontrollable in Singapore.
Staying at home proved to be a very tiring affair. I rested so much that I had trouble sleeping at night. I surfed the net, blogged and checked office mail. I got so many emails from colleagues pleading me to get off office mail that I had to really log off my office mail. I watched TV and got myself so sick on the news about violent Taiwanese politics.
My dad tried to entertain me by cooking me some homemade aloe vera dessert soup. I got a kick of seeing him shaving our very own aloe plant and tasting the dessert. It is very interesting.
Yes, even the pandan is organically grown at home as well. It is truly a very healthy dessert
Even so, I am bored to tears (no pun intended) and I had to get out of the house!
So, today I went out with Dot and Casey. I leeched on them the entire day when they went about doing their wedding stuff. They had to buy a number of stuff in Chinatown and all I did was to take pictures of us enjoying ourselves. Dun be jealous ok, Ernest!
In the MRT.
Fish soup & thumbs-up lime juice at Hong Lim Hawker centre.
Funny incident. I was sitting at the table waiting for Casey & Dot to come back from ordering the lime juice and was sitting back to the walkway between 2 tables. Then out of the corner of my eye, I saw an old man walk past me and brushed his sweaty arm against my body. I got a shock and quickly changed seats to sit facing the walkway and back facing the iron barriers.
When Dot came back, I complained to her about him and she concluded that because I am too fair, the old men of Chinatown must have thought I am one of the 'freelancers' and wanted some 'tofu'. Yucks!!!
Dessert at People's Park Centre. We shared some mango sago thing and a pumpkin & ice-cream dessert. Very nice.
People's Park Centre. Full of smelly old men.
Dot introduced me to this new thing. It is so fascinating. You can order bubble tea in varying degrees of sweetness and you can choose between normal bubbles or mini bubbles. I had 50% sweet and mini bubbles at Koi Cafe. Heard this is very famous in Taiwan. I definitely will check it out.
Then the wedding purchases had to adjourn to Bras Brasah Complex where we had to detour to Pearl's workplace. Ernest: we will come back here next week.
Then we turned back to Raffles Place to shop for some apparel for our bridegroom to be and we finished the day with dinner at Toastbox. They serve a very delicious laksa with mee tai mak. Interesting combination.
