Unlucky Day

21 December 2006 is the most unlucky day in my life!

It was a raining morning, thought of having Dao Huey Jui for breakfast, so i hurried to the stall to grab before my bus come. Who knows the 2 auntie customers infront of me got alot of qn abt the breakfast the stall is selling, so they are taking a long time, I decided I shall not wait, incase my bus went off, then i'll have to wait for 20min for the next one. I can't afford to be late as I need to run office errand early in the morning that day.

When i reached the office, i saw faxes at the machine, so i cleared the faxes and refill the bin. But some how, one of the faxes fall from the bin and the corner poked into my left eye so accurate and my instance reflection is to remove it and that moment i felt a sharp pain! I quickly put eyedrop, hardly can open my eye, it keep tearing... I prayed hard that i did not cut my eye as i have a lot of things to clear in the office and had to do grocery shopping for my mum etc...

When my collegue step into the office, i went to consult the company doctor. Luckily the clinic is just 3 storey below my office. The doc examined my eye and he confirmed is paper cut and decided to send me to A&E at SGH as he is worried that I will not be able to find any doctor in case of emergency during festive season, so he said it is best for me to go for a more thorough check. He gave me a reference letter and asked me to go immediately.

Went to A&E department, and waited for quite some time before i am called. The specialist exmaine my eye and said it will heal, so long as it don't get infected, it is not very serious as the cut is not deep. Thanks God!

After collecting my eyedrops, i decided that i am still fit to take MRT back, so i went to take the feder bus to the MRT station. But the moment i reached the train station, omg, the pain is killing me, i keep tearing non stop and can hardly open my eyes... no choice, walked to the taxi stand and took a taxi back.

My mum is so shocked to see me home at this hour. I immediately dropped on to my sofa and rest, unable to open my eyes, so pain that i forgot my hunger as i have not taken my lunch. Called my sis to do the grocery shopping and pack dinner for 2 sick pple at home.

Couldn't finish my dinner cause keep tearing. Had an early nite that day....

What an unlucky day!
