The Hospital

The entire last week my mom was in the hospital so I was in the room with her for most of the time (which is a LOT of time). So obviously I needed to entertain my mom and most importantly, MYSELF. Here are some of the things I did:

1) for my moms operation they have to cut open her knee and replace some parts. So every morning when the doctor came to change the dressing (the bandage) over the scar I would tell her that when he opened it, all the blood will come out like a fountain. So whenever the doctor came in I would start covering her face with newspaper and tell her I don't want the blood to fall on your face.

2) Someone gave my mom a helium get well soon balloon. So removed the weight that held it to the ground and tied it with tissue paper so that it'll just hover in mid air. After 2 hours I got it to float in mid air. However, the next morning the nurse confiscated it because it ended up in someone else's room.

3) I tried to do handstands against the wall. But I think my belly didn't like the idea and wanted to punish me by bringing the centre of gravity onto the ground.

4) I was told by my friend that if I'm not nice to the nurses they won't be nice to my mom. So I was super nice to everyone of them, saying "please", "thank you" and complimenting their work at every single opportunity I got.

5) My moms urnie was extracted from a tube for the first few days so I used to count the levels and tell her whether she's drinking enough water or not. The most amount of urine produced in one 6 hour period was 1,200 ml.

Sorry ... FORGET IT!!

a friend apologized to me today. Just after reading my blog so try and guess which one it was:

CB says:
sorry man
CB says:
the past few months while i was working and in a bad mood i guess i was quite mean to u
CB says:
only talk to u when i need to or in good mood
CB says:
if not i was really mean to u
CB says:
sorry


What she doesn't know:

1) When she was angry or mean to me I try and push my luck to see how angry / mean she can get. She passed this test by ignoring me when I starting edging her.
2) Sometimes when she's mean / bitchy I just agree with whatever she's saying cause i'm not in the mood.

Communication gaps with the SMU girls

Cool Beans:

Either she'll bombard you with so many msn messages and nudges that you have to scroll up on the page to read what you missed because the screen was shaking or if you try to talk to her and she's either not in the mood or busy you'll get mono syllabic answers.

Macho Man:

Normally I would message her when I have to ask her something but I realized she doesn't give definite answers through sms. So I decided that in stead i'll just call her and ask whatever I need. Therefore thats what I did only to be told that she'll call back later. In the end I ended up sending her a message anyway.

Rocket Girl:

Never EVER ask her anything more than a yes/no question if you intend to sms her. Sometimes I feel her phone is built only to answer either yes or no. But if you talk to her on the phone you have to be prepared and get right to the point and finish what you started to say BEFORE she hangs up which she likes to do, especially if i'm talking on the phone. I think she's out to annoy me.

Oh well, another semester, another year to bridge these gaps.
