Bad Accidents

Finally got home to put on the finishing touches on the blog.. -glares at noodle- If you still can't see then I really need to hire DeBuG to do it for me liao haha. Its terrible when things occur when you least expect it. My mum received a call from my grandmother around 1pm yesterday, telling her to go help my grandfather as the glass table in their house broke. I wanted to tag along as well, but then I'll be late for the NYAA interview.

When my mum arrived, she was surprised to see a crowd at the void deck of the apartment block. Pushing her way through the crowd, she saw my grandfather sitting there as though he is in a daze. Blood streamed freely from the crown of his head and there were shards of glass sticking out of his skin on his back as well as his chest. Needless to say, my mum was shocked. She ran upstairs to grab his identification card and some personal belongings. When she opened the door, she was greeted by the gruesome sight of glass and blood. Apparently, my grandfather's neighbour heard the crash and came rushing to his aid. They took him to the clinic downstairs but somehow, instead of calling the ambulance, they waited for my mum to fetch him.

They hustled off to the A&E in my dad's car and the medical team on standby attended to his wounds, the most severe of which was on the side of his head and another on the back of his head. It turned out that my grandfather suddenly felt giddy and fell backwards onto the glass table in his living room. Further tests diagnosed that my grandfather had diabetes, which probably was the cause of the sudden dizziness. I rushed down to the hospital as soon as I heard the news and was relieved to see that it wasn't too serious. He was warded until this afternoon as the doctor wanted to keep his diabetes in check. Since no one was free this afternoon, I had to handle the discharge.

Its rather worrying as my grandfather has hypertension and had a stroke before. With the added risk of diabetes, the chances of him having another stroke is 8 times higher than before. His diet suddenly became a huge concern for all those concerned and the dietrician gave me a rundown of looking after a diabetic patient.

I guess I was kinda drained after today so I was kinda inattentive when I went out with Mike later. You know, the usual staring into space when I'm talking to you kind of look. My mum went supermarket raiding after work as usual and came back with 30 dollars worth of no sugar products for my grandpa. Mike and I wandered around Great World City, then to Orchard. We visited PC Bunk, just to see what kind of people frequent that place and was vaguely surprised when we spotted a middle age dude playing in the midst of all the teens. I really really hate crowds. Sigh.

Return of the Queen

No, its not a parody of Lord of The Rings. I can't believe I actually managed to sit down for 30 minutes to do up this stupid blog again! I sort of lost interest in blogging for a while but I decided to be responsible and fulfil my promises in my first post. -ahem-
In other news, school starts next week. Yahooo! University is going to be so different, and I'm really expecting a dynamic change of pace. However, before school reopens, there are a couple of things I have to take care of first, namely:

Not too bad, considering that I've both interesting and really boring things to attend to. In any case, I have not discarded my old layout, so rest assured Kexin. (Your hard work didn't go down the drain.) Its just that I saw that Weiyan also had the same layout as I did previously so I thought that a change would be nice. I did use another blogskin which I think only Sue saw, but that didn't work out too well thanks to my less than stellar knowledge of html. I'm not a fanatic about this stuff anyway, so I'll settle for the minimal.

I have finally obtained my membership for the SA forums, courtesy of my love. Its fantastic, the content of the site. Tonight, I read a couple of really sad true life encounters, but what really pulled at my heartstrings was the story about the paedophillic boyfriend who violated his girlfriend's 9 year old girl from her previous marriage. To put it gently, the medical checkup revealed that the girl has been anally penetrated. I really hope that if the police doesn't get to him first, some mean ass motherfucker would shoot him in the gut and let him suffer a fate worse than death. Nine years old, for the love of god. Nine.

The number of sick people in this world really amazes me sometimes. Just today, someone by the name of DX52 decided that it would be fun to summon monsters and kill my afk character in town. I came back rolling in my grave and defamed him once. Then I followed him all the way to Victoria Island and realised that he was summoning these monsters at populated newbie places too, just for his sadistic viewing pleasure. I think I defamed the bugger 6 times in total with all my characters, but honestly, I don't think he cares. In fact, I think the bigger issue here is that, why do people feel that anonymity is a licence to be an asshole? The mentality where "If everyone is doing it, then it must be the right thing to do" pisses me off so badly. If I had a kid, I'll slap them silly if they ever came to me with that statement.

But enough of Maple. I'll never understand these people and hopefully, I'll never have the pleasure to work with them. The more you want, the less you get. Let things run their natural course and together with a little compromise, things will work out. Oh and thanks to my dear Rin jie for scarring me with her weapon of mass destruction - WG's blog. Welcome to the 21st century ladies and gentlemen, where makeup and plastic surgery can make someone look fabulous. (In which it doesn't work in NG's and WG's case since they are already so hideous to begin with.) My disdain for makeup is now at an all time high. Behind all those layers of powder and colours, what are you hiding? An ugly personality? A dirty secret? Its a formula that works, and I can only blame the tastebuds of the male anatomy for that. I've tried to stop hating them, but I can't. In fact, they have become my standard example of what not to be. They club, they party, they put on layers of heavy makeup, they flirt ostentiously with all guys, they wear revealing clothes. Sure, they get the attention of the opposite sex, so what? In all honesty, its shallow as hell and I'm so glad that I'm not part of all that rubbish.

In this world where looks are prized, when do you stop debasing yourself? Underneath it all, who are you and what have you become? I can just hear the echoes of the smitten guys going "But you're just jealous". Relationships based on physical attraction can never make it, period. Thats why movie stars are often embroiled in a divorce. Look at Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston. Look at Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. What's happening to them now? Yes, I'm judgemental, but when you put your lovelife on the table for all the world to scrutinize, one cannot help but make an example out of it.

Sigh, I just wish girls nowadays can value themselves not on how good they look but how good they are. Instead of commiting suicide or going for plastic surgery because their boobs are not big enough, perhaps they should spend more time improving on their other qualities that are actually useful to society.

Meanwhile, some random photos..
