I will always love you, Whitney Houston

This is an old song that I love when I was young. It is also the best song of Whitney Houston. It was originally written and sang by Dolly Parton.
Starts to listen to it again after knowing her coming back. I know little about her; not after watching her interview and some read up about her in the wiki. She is a great singer. I love her, especially this song, I will always love you.

I had a wonderful and special (very special, because you are special) Christmas. Thanks, miu miu :)
I wish everyone a had a special Christmas and a exciting new year ahead :)

My pain

This is me. A truth that I am very sad of, bother me most.
I have a class 3 jaws. It means that I have a asymmetry lower jaw and a degree of deficient upper jaw. I was told is it not really that bad if my upper jaw is not this small. Sigh...

You might not think it is that bad. Well, it is not that when compare to the more serious cases. But it really bothers me. I can feel it almost everyday. Due to the asymmetry, I bite myself almost everyday. I bite myself when I am eating and talking. I have to chew slowly and carefully. Furthermore, I can't talk fast. I won't be able to pronounce properly, worse saliva fly out from the opened front teeth; will never dream of singing. Yes, my front teeth doesn't meet at all. Imagine you have to bite noodle with your lower lips and upper teeth, how irritating will that be? Sigh... not to mention my face. It follows the asymmetric bones.

Any cure? yeah, there is. Initially I thought a 2 years of orthodontic would solve the problem. However, I was late, late by 13 years. Fixing deficient upper jaw with only orthodontic method only possible before puberty(around age of 9). For short, Surgery is a must for me. The surgery costs 11k. On top of that I still need 4.5k for the orthodontic. Total, I need 15.5k minimum. Sigh....

I really hope to do it as soon as possible. Do it when I am young. Have to save bit by bit to reach that big number. I have nothing near the middle line. LOL. Just wish either I will have the money now or the surgery can be cheaper. Suddenly I wish I could cyber beg for the money(know it from my CS1105 module. Cyber begging is illegal).


I feel down whenever I look at this pic.



Lesson learnt: Never ever remove any of your K9 tooth. It is the longest tooth; its give the face the 3D look. Face will look flatter if you remove it. Secondly, must see an orthodontist when you are young!

Sigh.....

My New Home @ Temasek Hall

Hello ~ This is my new home. I will be staying in the tiny little room for at least a year. Although it is tiny but it is comfortable(because I make it comfortable). You will notice there are 2 mattress. Well, It is because I saw a small patch of stain, not on the top or bottom but on the middle of the bed(I know, it is gross). I stay in the ground floor, there are a lot of insects and lizards visiting my room. It is pretty annoying. However, everything will be fine when I have my wine and vodka store inside my tiny little Frig in my tiny little room. HO HO HO HO

My tiny little space.

My daemon, Melania.

I met a lot of interesting people and done a lot daring things. 让我青春不留白！I did this flashback not because I am leaving Singapore. It's because I am going to a new chapter of my life. Soon I will be moving to NUS, new environment, new people and new adventure await me. I conclude these 4 years memory with this little thingy.

A small yet heart warming birthday party prepared by my fellow colleague. Thank you! My birthday were normally like a normal day. My parents are not into celebrating birthday. The only special things we did on birthday is dine out. There are 3 memorable birthday, 5th/6th, 18th and 21st. These are the birthday when I had party.

Post-LASIK

Auf wiedersehen my lovely spec! Lets celebrate the freedom of my eye~

Thanks + a big hug to my sis, my colleagues and my friends. I am recovering well, and I have achieved 6/6 perfect vision. Special thanks to Dr. Lee :)

remembering the day of surgery:

1. Register at the counter @ 9 a.m, wait for a pre-LASIK check up. To reassure the condition of your eyes are stable and suitable for LASIK.
   
2. While waiting, a nurse came to confirm my identity and ask if I have brought any sun glasses along and was there anyone to bring me home. If not, she will give me a pair of goggles and guide me to the taxi stand after the surgery. I was given anesthesia eye drop right after the check up.
3. Waited for 30 minutes. Another anesthesia eye drops and antiseptic eye drops. Nurse cleaned my eye area with some yellowish solution (I guess is some chemical solution with high alcohol content).
4. Lying... waiting for the Dr. Lee. Guess he was adjusting the strength of the laser. I was feeling nervous, really nervous. Started with my right eye, he used surgical "masking tape" to "tape" the eye lashes area and then opened up my eyelid with a metallic equipment. After that, he is used something to touch my eye ball and then something else was covering my vision. "1... 2... 3... begin suction"! That is when I was frighten. I think I have miss out knowing this part. Didn't know that suction is needed in order to cut a an opening on my cornea (so that my eye will not move around during the cutting). Again... something was moving on my eye then vision gone very blur (cornea was lift up).
   
5. Nothing much special during the laser-ing. To me it is kind of hard to focus on the red light and it is tiring. Smell something burning.
6. The operation was done in less then 20 mins? This is the most difficult time when anesthesia starting to fade away. I felt great discomfort and keep tearing.
   
7. 2 sleeping pills were given which will put me to sleep for the whole day, 5 days MC, and 3 types of eye drops.
   
8. The very moment I opened my eyes after the long sleep, miracle happened. It is crystal clear, my vision! :) I need to go back for follow check-up after 1 day, week, month and year.
   

I have paid SGD 3180.00 for the surgery, SGD 24.00 for the eye drops, SGD 68.00 for the first check-up and SGD 48.00 for the 2nd check-up. I know... it is expensive. However I believe this investment will last at least 20 years.

FYI: Dr Lee has left TTSH. He told me that he's going private. The new clinic is near botanic garden.

Pre-LASIK

Ha... yes LASIK, I am going! What!? Lasik?(click the movie)

Days before surgery: 3days
My feeling now: a bit nervous...
Things to be done: clean the room, bed and toilet. make sure it is 99% bacteria-free. Stock up food for 1 week (Don't think I will be leaving the house).

MY Steps to LASIK:

1. Gather information about lasik
   http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/LASIK/expect.htm
   http://www.allaboutvision.com/visionsurgery/(Try the "Are You a Candidate for LASIK?" test. It can be useful)
   One thing must take note is HAVING REALISTIC EXPECTATION. LASIK won't guarantee you a 20/20 or 6/6 (different measurement) vision, although perfect vision is achievable. The acceptable and so called normal corrective vision to be achieved is 7.5 - 9 over 6 (roughly 50-100 degrees).
   
   
2. Consider the need of LASIK
   This up to each individual. For me, I don't want spec on my face while I am doing sport and when I am working long hours.
   
   
3. Find the right specialist & the right price
   A doctor friend from TTSH recommend me Dr. Lee Hung Ming from TTSH. He is a senior consultant. Enquiries hotline 63578383. Standard LASIK SGD1590.00 per eye.
   
   
4. Go for pre-LASIK consultation
   pre-LASIK consultation cost SGD196.15 (for senior consultant)
   
   
5. Reconsider the need of LASIK
   Hahaha... have to think twice! Decide and choose wisely (just for laugh)!
   
   
6. Make appointment & GO GO GO!

Slepless night & the tarot card

Tonight is the third sleepless night! Damn it! I still need to work tomorrow! Sorry Jodi, sorry Eliza~ sobs sobs. I think I going to be late tomorrow :D

I found a tarot card side from my friend's blog. Just played it for fun. The result is I am the goddess of SUN~ Shining every single organism on earth. Ha ha~ Juuuuust joking.

You are The Sun

Happiness, Content, Joy.

The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.

Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.

The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.
