    Sigh...

    Some accident happened during reservist... well sorta. Probably cause the last time I exercised was also during reservist, i kinda braked too hard after shuttle run. Left toe took the impact and immediately I could see blood underneath, and there was swelling. Thought it wasn't too serious, so still completed 2.4, followed by the 2D1N outfield in the forest. But by the last day the pain was quite unbearable and I was limping already...

    Once the vehicle is washed, I returned to bunk... removed my boots and tadah!!! One swollen toe, 1.5x thicker than my right one. Went to see the doctor the next day, and he sorta relieved the pain. How'd he do it? Used a size 20 needle, use a lighter, heat it up to red hot, screwed it into my nail until a hole was punctured, and squeezed wateva liquid was underneath it. Wasn't blood, but some reddish yellowish substance... damn painful man, and that was Friday.

    Last night the nail came off... I was itchy handed lah, minor bleeding, but happy that the nail was kept as a whole (can keep for memory sake!)! The skin underneath it is very tender... Eh... nothing like wat Mr San encountered in Delft, but here are some pics...!


    K that's it about my toe... not really an issue. Went for my driving lessons as usual today, could handle it. Bet most of us are working hard on our dissertation by now, all except me, still very slack. In fact, I slacked the whole day away today, after driving, lunch, read some crappy Spider-man, slept until 7pm... Nice!! Think I'm going to start work proper tomorrow... It's an auspicious hour thing... to start work in the morning. Still hoping to get 2 interviews done, and compile everything. Hope it's not going to take too long.

    According to Prof Tse, how Masters is going to be conducted will be decided in a meeting next week. Stay tuned for e-mails I guess... Oh, and Jasmine has left office for good. Sigh, I do think she is the friendliest and helpful staff in aki.

    Chet's being away sucks. Friday come quick!!
