iT wAs aLl tOo SUddEn

as i was on my way to meeting steph. everything was absolutely fine.

went over to take a look at peck, something black was hindering my left eye. you know the kind of graphics you'll get when you stare at strong light for too long?

then we went over to mos burger at bugis, and i started eating my fish burger. the graphic was still there, and my head began to throb with pain from the sides.

i brushed it aside, and continued to walk around.. the throbbing pain got serious, and i realised i was breaking out in cold sweat.

i told steph, "sorry leh, but i think the symptoms are all coming out again.. guess i've got to go home." =(

she sent me to the taxi stand and i waited for a cab.. then i motioned her to go off first coz i assured her that i would be fine.

i went out at 3pm, was going home at 4pm. >.<

while waiting, vomitting sensations came to my throat and i had to force it down.

finally, i got in a cab and told the cabbie, "uncle, moulmein rd".

the uncle went a different route but i was too sick to bother anyway. i brushed my palm across my forehead and saw droplets of perspiration. my palm was wet, and my fringe was wet too.

what made matters worse, the cabbie turned around and asked, "it's moulmein rd, not mounbatten rd?" i replied, "moulmein rd, uncle".. i saw the meter going higher and higher, for the first time, i didn't even really bothered.

i lay on the back seat in exhaustion, this move must have disturbed the uncle, coz he turned around and asked, "xiao jie, are you ok?" i replied, "yeah, thanks".

vomitting sensations came over me again, as i strived really hard to force it back. i was perspiring profusely, yet the strong air con in the car was making me shudder. is that how drugs addicts feel like? you feel cold and warm at the same time??

finally i got home, the fare was $4, i think the cabbie gave me discount for going the wrong way, and i ran up, opened the door, and squatted in front of my toilet bowl. everything came out of my mouth.

i felt instantly better, popped in 2 panadols and another pill from my old medicine to stop vomitting and went to sleep. i still felt cold and warm at the same time, perspiring still, as i covered myself in blanket.

if you think all these are terrible, it's nothing compared to tzyy horng's family. =(

my condolences.
