Just finished watching It Started With A Kiss 2: They Kiss Again. One word...Brilliant! All I can say is that I haven't seen a second season of any drama as good as this is! Even though I find the camera shot amateur (during some scenes you can actually feel the camera shaking!), I guess it is the superb plot and the chemistry between Joe Cheng and Ariel Lin that finally won me over. During the second season, you can get see more expressions of love from 植树 to 湘琴. Even though 湘琴 remains dumb, when you see how 植树 accepted all that, your heart will just melt. Initially I thought the last episode will be a tearjerker (and I was quite excited to see if I will cry), but turns out that either the episode is not moving enough or I declare my tear glands are malfunctioning. I am still waiting for that one movie or drama that will get tears welling up in my eyes. I shall continue to wait...

My heart is racing now. No, not because I saw the man of my life...but because I am nervous about the presentation tomorrow. Nothing I do seems to calm me down. If my heart races any faster now, the traffic police will catch and fine me for speeding. Wish I can send SOS signal to someone....

Goodness...I haven't blog for a long time, after some reminders from Thuy. Well, this is not my longest record yet...
Just went for a jog around Birchfield Park...at like 11am. Yes, it sounds crazy but this is not Singapore, where going for a jog near noon will guarantee you a place in a hospital due to heatstroke. The weather is cloudy, with a hint that it will rain again in the afternoon. The air is cold and damp, but not as chilly as last week. Maybe that is why I feel so good today after the jog. I manage to jog all the way, of course with the help of my Salbutamol inhaler.
Speaking of which, Pharmacology exam is on Friday. Let me revise a bit...
Salbutamol is a B2-agonist. It binds to B2-adrenoreceptor and therefore stimulates smooth muscles in the trachea to relax to expand the airway. Salmeterol and Terbutaline are also B2 agonists, but they are long-acting.
Beclamethasone and Prednisolone are steroids, which alters DNA transcription.
Theophylline and another drug (which i forgot but ends with -line as well) inhibits phosphodiesterase and therefore, reduce the effect of inflammatory responses.
Montelukast and Zafirlukast are leukotriene antagonists in which they bind to leukotriene receptors so that inflammatory responses are reduced as well.
Enough of blabbering. I am stilll licking my wounds from Monday. Feels cheated through and through. Prays that I will be cool and calm like a cucumber and not tongue-tied for tomorrow's presentation. Tomorrow shall be the day when I will make a comeback.
也许背了太多的心愿， 流星才会跌的那么重...

Seems like during this time when I am sick, I seem to have lost a fraction of my appetite. During the past, I need to have lunch all the time and after dinner, I will always snack on something. During this period, I can survive without my lunch and after dinner (no matter how small the portion is), I need not snack anymore. Don't know whether this is a good thing or not. I still remember the shock of standing on a weighing scale on the day I followed the school nurse. And my mum jokingly warned me not to be so fat that I could not fit into all my jeans already.
And I seem to sleep more often nowadays too. Guess all the fatigue from having restless sleep is catching up to me.
Saw the Champions League results. So it is Man U vs Barcelona and Chelsea vs Liverpool now. I guess my feelings are the same as Kwanie. Like the Chinese saying goes, 手掌是肉， 手背也是肉. Both our favourite teams are fighting against each other...Hope all ends well!

Haven't been this sick for a while now...
And I finally understand the feeling of coughing my lungs out!
Guess it is another sleepless (and coughing fit) night...this panda seriously needs her sleep!
Shoo, super-resistant bug, shoo and get out of my body right now!

Things have not been going so well these days, it seems...
First, I came back quite sick from London. What was initially a sore throat and fever rapidly change into dry cough, then into chesty cough...
Only slept for 3 hours yesterday and I am afraid of sleeping nowadays. It is like before I enter the stage of peaceful sleeping, I will have to undergo a series of coughing fits first. And I remember the first night when I came back to Manchester from London, I have never shivered for so long before in my sleep. Can you imagine shivering and shuddering from 11pm till 3am? Seems like this microorganism residing in my body now has superb defence mechanisms against my immune system...
Feel bad about having my parents to worry nonstop about my illness.
Then received news that my (cheap!) summer vacation residence is gone because the owner decided to give it to her cousin instead of renting out to me...:( And I am desperately trying to figure out a solution to store my stuff in Manchester without bringing them along for my trip, but still have access to them so that I can bring the extra stuff back to Singapore...*headache* Considering that I have not slept for the past few hours, my brain is declared malfunctioning now...
Argh! Someone please tell me what to do!
