Blessings in Disguise


There are so many things in my mind i would love to convert my keyboard on.But on top of that giant pile of things lies the world's biggest joke.....i was so called 'SUSPECTED' of contracting dengue.I mean COME ON....ME?Getting gravely ill just because some puny little black/white insect by the name of Mo-skill-to sucked my blood?Would love to see that happen actually (cos then we would have to tell Robert the bad news;that we've got a better sucker in the house xp) but sadly,Robert still gets to keep his job =) Anyways,it took the doctors 4 days and 3 nights to clarify the word 'Suspected'.Turns out,it was just a case of high-fever.And you wonder why doctors earn so much...xp

I will always remember the very first time i was admitted to the hospital (excluding the time when i dropped out from you-know-where).I remember it like it was yesterday.Went to the same hospital as this one.The reason?I was Sooo obssesed with the new Playstation mom just got me that i played 15 hours non-stop.It took less than a week before i finally felt ill and i had to be admitted to the hospital.My head was spinning no doubt caused by all those hours spent in front of that 'idiot box'.If i paid close attention,i swear i could see kaleidoscopic colours surrounding me.And because of that,i puke-ed once every 15 minutes-tops.And so,being Miss Squeaky-clean,my mom came up with the ingenious idea of making me hold an ice-cream box wherever i go so that i dont get the boo boos everywhere.So whenever i felt like puking,i would shout ICE-CREAM!!

Ahem*where were we again......Oh!the hospital i went to was the Sunway Medical Centre.Apart from equipping the rooms with the new Super-Flat screen Samsung TVs + Astro,things havent really change that much since my last visit.Though they have more rooms now....The people there are really nice. (Re-run *) The Nurses there are really nice.I always think that they're angels that somehow got stranded here while touring Earth,and to get back to heaven,they have to earn enough 'good' points for them to earn a ticket back.You can't fault me using my imagination cos' every time they stick a needle up my arm,they'll say they're sorry cos it might just hurt...a bit.When u press that little red button for assistance,they would come flying in your room with a smile so angelic that u sometimes forget what u needed them for.And when you cant sleep at night even after shows like Die hard ,The Proposal and Bangkok Dangerous,they'll come creeping up your bedside with their harps and lullaby you to sleep.




There is a pin-up wall just beside the counter of my ward that is especially dedicated to the Nurses there.And i'm proud to say i've finally squeezed my way past the many cards on that wall to proudly pin up the card i got from MPH that cost me a blardy 8 BUCKS!!I thought the cashier key-ed in the wrong price when the RM 8.00 flashed before me.Sighh,the price for not having creativity as an attribute.Oh and reading My Sister's Keeper in the hospital is like wearing 3-D glasses while reading a book.It makes you feel like you're actually in it.And if you dont understand those very long greek medical terms they use in the book like Lymphocyte(?) ,They're always people there u can ask cos' after all,You're in a Hospital!One of the 'Angels' borrowed the book for the night and i forgot to tell her i might be going back the next day if my platelets weren't naughty.Sure enough,she returned it the next morning with a note in it:





The morning shift 'Angels' told me that St.Mag here wanted to personally thank me for lending her the book but when she saw me sleeping while hugging that oversized pillow so tightly to my head due to my roomate's snoring,she couldn't help but leave me be.It's beginning to sound very hard not to believe angels exist here xp

If there was anything i learned through my 4 days 3 nights stay at the hospital,it is that Doctors have the worst jobs in the world.When a patient dies at the hands of a Doctor,people inevitably blame them,even if they've done their best trying to safe them.And no one likes seeing a Doctor cos' u have to be sick to see one.Dr.Wong conducted a final check-up before finally discharging me.And with a smile that shrouds all true emotions ,he said "I hope i wont have to see you again".Just as the door closed behind us,i just made it in time to have one last glance at the man's face.His smile,now replaced with frowned lips,as though telling himself---Another happy patient....


Which makes me wonder....IS HE GOD!??? =O
