Sick weeks



I didn't have the mood to blog for almost two weeks or maybe more - blame it on the bug flu! I think it's also because of the weather (rainy season) - that's what everyone says. I have to be on antibiotics because of my terrible sore throat and coughing so badly but still no sign of recovering yet...that's me I've got to admit it that I have a very, very weak immune system. Remedies like drinking honey + lemon or gargling salt water doesn't work well for me. My dad used to tell me that I'm the only child among 5 siblings who is always prone to get sick...that I could easily catch a cold. That's why I have no excuse to not buy and take up multi-vitamin supplements all my life. Guess that I didn't really take care of myself that well. I missed singing already but can't do with this prolong coughing...aaarrggh.

The sad thing is that my baby son Chardon also caught the sick bug from me...I know it's difficult to avoid this to happen. He had high fever & runny nose last week and the doctor had to give him antibiotics as well (not good). And now he's also coughing as badly as I am and often distracts his slumber time every night - deep sigh here:( I had to give my full attention and lots of TLC while nursing him and for that I had sleepless nights too. So everyday to work either driving with my sister or at times taking the public transportation (bus) - I will have some time to doze off all the way. The meds made me even more sleepier.

Anyway...I finished my antibiotics which I really hate to do and hope to get better very, very soon...same for Chardon too. It's heart-wreaking to even hear a baby coughing like adults do. Sorry it's boring sick weeks so this is a boring posts for you people I'm sure.

Well....more from me later so for now take care and don't get sick!

Love your breast - Think Pink!

Hi people (especially to all ladies), hope you'll not get offended when I just said 'LOVE YOUR BREAST'....please have an open mind because the Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign month just ended (in October). Yesterday, I attended a Breast Cancer Awareness Public Forum "Dream Beyond Cancer" organised by the The Rotary Club of Kinabalu Sutera & The Inner Wheel Club of Kota Kinabalu and they invited speakers - Dato' Dr Suseela Nair, Senior Consultant Breast Surgeon & Dr Ravi Mandalam, Consultant Radiologist to speak..of course to talk on none other than Breast Cancer, which 99% of sufferers are women and 1% are men (ya..men can get breast cancer too). The talk was very interesting and it really made me want to take care and love my breast more by knowing the signs of breast cancer and screen my breast regularly by breast self examination.
These items of the Pink Ribbon was my purchase that day as my contribution to support the Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign, and my money will go to the Breast Cancer Welfare Association Malaysia (BCWA). So I don't mind spending cos it's pretty pinky stuffs too.

One of my aunt died of breast cancer and I'm not sure if it runs in my family....so I need to be aware!
So to all women (and perhaps men too..just FYI), never be afraid to examine your breasts or to have them examined. Finding out that you do not have breast cancer is more important than the time and effort required for an examination, or any discomfort you may feel. Protect yourself through early detection. You will have better treatment options and a better chance of recovery. More info on breast cancer, you may login to http://www.breastcancer.org.my/ and Think Pink Foundation.
I'm now proudly supporting women with breast cancer!

Wash your hands! (H1N1/Swine Flu song)

Listen to this song if you don't want to get or to prevent thyself from getting the H1N1/Swine Flu. Sounds a lil disgusting but hilariously funny as well.



My simple advise: If you have digged your poo poo, don’t take ice from my milo and don’t touch the piano!

H1N1 sucks and kills...don't play-play!
