(28) i've moved...
Ok... I've moved my tagboard. You don't have to scroll all the way downnnnnnnnnnn anymore if you want to spam!Sent Ben to CMPB this morning for his pre-enlistment medical check-up. I knew the check-up would be long when I dropped him off at 9.30am but it's already way past lunch time and even past tea-break now! Well. that's how the army works! Hmm... I wonder if Ben should have gone overseas after his O-levels and finish uni first before enlisting?? Well, he was given the option but he had decided that it would be jc here, then the army, then uni!Wow... the kids are growing up real fast and I am growing old equally fast! And there are still lots of things I've not completed or accomplished...

(27) worse than bored...
Judith changed her tagboard to cbox today. So I decided that 'What you can do, I can also.' In fact, mine's better... not so 'squashy'! 
Yah... Ben and Jon changed their skins recently. Even Darrick has got his skin changed today. Well, I am not that confident yet...

(25) hey there, mr chairman!
Hahaha! This post is specially for the CHAIRMAN of big-mama's fan club! Actually my NUMBER 1 FAN is BRENDA KOR JIAYING, my niece, while Mr Chairman suddenly appeared from nowhere! ;)
After picking Em from school, we went to BATA to buy her a new pair of school shoes as there were too many holes in her old pair. Fussy girl... even her school shoes must be of a certain design cos she said she didn't want to look like a nerd! Anyway we rushed through the shoe shopping so that we wouldn't be late to pick Jon. Actually we shouldn't have bothered cos his Legion meeting ended late, as usual.
Whilst waiting in the SJI canteen, Em and I saw Darrick but he was sort of shy in acknowledging this aunt of his! Then we saw a boy who looked like Wang Guan... but we weren't too sure at first cos he looked kind of different from the photos in WG's blog. Hmmm, the boy was taller, slimmer and more 'shuai'. Later, Darrick came up and pointed him out to us, 'Chairman, chairman of fan club!!!'
Ahhhh, I thought boys nowadays are very daring! Aiyoh... so disappointing leh! Mr Chairman did not rush over to me! He did not 'swoon' over me! There was no photo-snapping frenzy, no flowers, no clamouring for my autograph! Some more, I am the 'zhangbei'! :(
Anyway, I think WG was just too shy to come over to say 'hello'. Hahaha... actually I didn't wave to WG first cos I wanted to see if he knew I was in the canteen! He must gone up to Darrick to confirm if that woman (where's the white hair?) is indeed big-mama!!
WELL, WANG GUAN! NICE TO HAVE MET YOU TODAY!

(24) lucky me...
No, I didn't win something better than the air ticket to Bangkok but this is equally good or maybe better??
After running some errands, I was wondering if I should go to TTSH A&E cos of late, my shoulder was hurting more that hubby told me not to wait till the June appointment but to go to A&E today. But thrifty me decided to go home! After making some calls, I decided to call TTSH Medical Centre. Of course, I had my misgivings, afterall I always get the same reply every day... NO, NO CANCELLATIONS, NO FREE SLOTS! But to my amazement, the girl asked me where I stayed and asked if I could be at TTSH in 5 min. Of course I said 'YES... but I'll be there in 10 min!'
Luckily, I had not changed out of my 'going-out' clothes. I decided taking a taxi was faster than driving there cos going down the narrow winding ramps into the basement carpark was difficult. Furthermore, I may have to drive around the carpark before I find a lot. It was the correct decision because I left home at 10.35am and finished off only at 4.10pm. If my shoulder pain doesn't kill me, the parking charges would!!!
Once I arrived at TTSH, I saw the doctor within half an hour, sat in his room for less than 5 min and off I went to have x-rays taken. Then it was back to the doctor who said that I was probably suffering from 'frozen shoulder' and that I needed physiotherapy. Hahaha, it's not rotator cuff stuff afterall. I paid up and set off to the physiotherapy department. The clerk there asked me if I wanted the 2.45pm slot today and if I didn't want it, the earliest date would be in 2 weeks' time. Of course, I grabbed the afternoon slot but only after checking with sis-in-law that she could pick Jon.
I had about 2 hours to kill so I thought I could take a leisurely walk home, then drive back for my physio session. But then, it started raining, so I went to Novena Square. What a boring place, except for the eateries! Anyway, I went back to TTSH, walked around the foodcourt and the few shops there! Waaah... saw this stall selling my favourite foods: penang laksa and popiah but I had to restrain myself as it was the 2nd day of my diet program!! NEVER EVER LEAVE the house if you are on a diet! Anyway, after the physio session, I bought afternoon tea for everybody (me excluded) and then waited for hubby to pick me.
AHHHHHH..... food! But never mind, I got to see the orthopedic specialist earlier than the scheduled appointment in June! And the BEST PART... I didn't have to pay the $75 A&E fee again! And because I had the referral letter from the polyclinic, I only paid $32.70 consultation fee vs $108.50 and $14.90 for physiotherapy vs $56.57! Wow, I saved $117.43 but that will go to paying handphone bills!!
Hmm... I seem to be lucky lately! Aiyah, no casino yet! So, 4-D this weekend??
