Welcome to the virus club.

Hello, I'm here for a short while. I heard that quite some people are falling sick recently. Chicken pox, hand foot and mouth disease, Food poisoning, common flu and more. Now, I not only heard it, I fucking feel it! I'm now down with tonsillitis, a kind of bacterial infection of the throat. I had been feeling this weird ache on my throat since halfway through last week but thought it's just a common sore throat that I get every once in awhile. Last friday It bugged me quite a little that I went to flashlight my throat. I saw some will spots on my right tonsil and started to worry a little. That was when I went online and did some research about it. Learnt quite alot of new things, but not at a worthy cost. I made up my mind to see doctor instead of working the next day. That night, my throat worsen before I went to sleep. When I woke up the next day, I abandoned the thought going to polyclinic. I had no patient for that, looking out for numbers, looking for the correct rooms, squeezing with other patients and having to wait for every damn thing. Therefore, I went to this private chain organization clinic at the mall opposite my place as I know it'll be quicker. I didn't mind paying 20 to 30 more for the speed. BUT, this time round, it was too quick. I registered and my number flashed in lesser than 5 minutes, followed by a 45-second diagnosis. That was bloody fast game. I collected my medication and everything costed me 44, which I didn't know where the damn extra 4 came from.

Baby came up to visit me that day. Thanks baby, that was really sweet and pain-relieving. However after she left, the pain became more immense that I could only go dota, own some asses to divert my attention from the pain. A day after I've seen the doctor (which is today), it wasn't any better, I was thinking the doctor was so 'whatever' about diagnosing me. He didn't even give me any advices or ask any much. It was me telling him things most of the time. I'm not trying to doublt his abilities as I know the drugs need some time to work on the situation but now, I felt that he missed out on painkillers. I've search the net and most medical forums mentioned that painkillers and antibiotics are the essentials for tonsillitis treatment. By late night, my throat felt this dull pain everytime I swallow, even my saliva. It was as if something hard and blunt was pull through my neck. I couldn't really sleep even after exhausting baby on the line but eventually, I dozed like at 3-ish to 4am. The next morning, I had problem waking. Though I first woke pretty early, it took me till noon to get out of bed. That was because the moment I was half awake and normally, the first thing you do in is to swallow your saliva, I felt the same dull pain, but worse. And somehow, some defence mechanism made me doze again so I won't feel the pain. So it was like, wake up and sleep, wake up and sleep till 12 noon.

My dear mum couldn't bear to see me in such a state, where I cringed my brows at times when I swallow. She wanted me to head back to get some pain-killers but I was kind of reluctant as I don't wish to waste waste money. It's not about money actually, but imagine having to pay for consultant fees again for getting painkillers? That would be fucked up. I was thinking maybe I'll visit another clinic if things worsen up tomorrow but I've haven't finished the course of antibiotics that was given to me. If I am to, I'll visit private home clinics which I believe have more dedicated doctors. I guess those chain organization doctors get a fixed pay, perhaps that's why some of them just can't be bothered. I'm not stereotyping, there are good doctors in chain organization clinics but they all get rotated around and sometimes you just get a bad one.

Alright, I got to go. I'm still trying to gather pictures taken during NYP Jam 'N' Hop event so I can review on it.

Burn, Burn, Burn in Hell

I think I'm quite slow about this but I found out that hui lau shan, the damned place I worked at back then closed down and the whole fucking crew had crawled back to Hong Kong. I truly wish from the bottom of my heart they all rot and fucking wong have his three outlets in Hong Kong closed down too.
