Finals. Ended. Finally. Don't ask me how was it because I would certainly tell you it was a disaster and my mood would be ruined just like that.
Now here I am, at HOME. I dread tomorrow, am going back UM. Alas.
I had an awful experience 3 weeks before study week. Yes, an exact 4 weeks before Finals. CONJUNCTIVITIS! Both eyes ehh. Basically, it is an inflammation in your conjunctiva due to bacterial/viral infection. For my case, it was a viral infection which antibiotics cannot act against and it heals by itself. How long it takes to heal, depends on its natural course. It took me about 2 weeks to heal! Itchiness, blur vision, tiredness, watery, eye discharge dried up in the morning that made my eyes couldn't open at all but I still need to make all the way from room to the bathroom with my eyes closed. I was tortured for the entire 2 weeks. The most devastating part, was the REDNESS. I looked not unlike those red-eyed devil on screen. It was extremely, yes, extremely scary and quite a number of people did not even dare to look at me. For so many times, I explained it cannot be transmitted through air/looking at it/talking to me. It can only be transmitted by contacts. Yes, only if you touch me or I touch you, and you rub your eyes or face with your contaminated hands. That's why I made a lot of roundtrips from my room to washroom just to make sure my hands are clean most of the times. But.....ok, I know, it was scary. My mum told me, nobody wants to get infected because they know it is suffering, that's why people chose to keep a distance away from me, and nobody bother what's the actual reasons behind to get infected, as long as they are not near to me, they are safe. Then I started to comprehend that I should not care much about the shun. I had a more than enough sleeping time almost everyday. 11pm-7.30am, not to forget naps at noon. Most of my times were taken up and not much were left for me to study. Fortunately (or maybe no), it completely healed a week before study week. Eventually, I ended up with having piles of notes that I never flip through even a page before study week. Such thing never happened to me before, I usually had gone through every pages of notes days before study week and study week was spent on only REVISING it, not reading it for the very first time. That's the reason I was so tensed up for the entire week and cried for almost every day. Called my parent, I cried. Called him, I cried. In room, I cried too. Cry, cry and cry. Why my lacrimal glands that sensitive? I felt so sorry for my parent, I have turned 20, still, I was not unlike a 15 year-old kid whose parents need to be worried about. They advised me to go home on the next study week and have a proper meal cooked by mommy. Still wondering. Anyway, I'm so glad all those are now over.
Despite of those horrible moments and FINALS, I had a fabulous birthday this year! Thanks to Chu Yee, Aileen, Qing Yu and Junie. The pizzas, the small gift, the durian cheese cake we all love except Qing Yu. Needless to say, the reply to that midnight call. HAHAHAHA. I seriously did not expect there would be a midnight celebration some more. Thanks to my Labmates who tricked me all the way to Secret Recipe to have another cheese cake. Hihi.
And, hmm...Thanks to you. You made up my day, with the most lovely cake I have ever seen ♥
Reached home early on Friday morning. Back to home and grabbed more sleep. Then, Mommy's yell wakened up, telling me I should go and brush up before going to temple to worship my aunt who had left us for 21 days. Four XL-sized kids at the backseat. Squeezing macam sardin dalam tin. Quite a discomfort, but I love the warmth. After worshiping, went to have a breakfast. Then only I realized it has been a very long time since we all last sat around a table and had meals together (we seldom eat out). My younger sister can actually talk a lot. Ok, only when she does not act annoying. And my daddy who laughed when I do the talking, very heartwarming. =)
Going back UM soon.. WHY?!!!!
Please, I can't afford to fail.
I promise to be even more diligent.
But, please, can I not fail this time?
home sweet home... =)
