49th Week

Looking at my calendar, gosh, it is week 49, and there just 5 weeks to go. I am so excited about this holiday, mainly because I am going back for holiday.

 

Christmas

My family don’t celebrate Christmas, because there are not Christian and they are not ang mo. So, Christmas was not a big deal for us, but I am excited because every year, we celebrate Family Day on Christmas. Family Day in my family, is a big thing, probably I would say bigger then we celebrate Chinese new year. Family Day became so important to us ever since my Grandma passed away, last May 04. She was the one who started this event. I remember my cousin who is the chairman for Family Day 2004 told me that, everyone (my family members) were looking forward to this event. All my relative, whoever are currently overseas already arranged themselves for this holiday. So, without doubts, I am excited and looking forward to meet them again.

 

Medical Checkout 

Talking about PR application, today was my final medical checkout. It was the early appointment, just couple of people at the waiting room when Daniel and I arrived. After registered ourselves, Daniel was first in the queue. After I was tested on my urine and eye, I was called into the doctor’s room.

 

Surprisingly the doctor was from Penang (my hometown), he was born there and now he is working in HSA. Well, he is ang mo by the way. So, it really shocked me. Anyway, I was sitting on the bed awaiting for checkout, doctor said that my blood pressure is too high. He make jokes that I was too busy with work, because my phone rang before I enter to his room. He was saying that I should get away sometime, so that I can relax. Anyway, he told that he will get another blood pressure measurement later if I could just relax and rest myself on that bed. Ha! It was cool on that bed, the a/c was blowing on me and I was actually only with my undies. My mind telling myself “relax, relax… you don’t want to have a high blood pressure, aren’t you?” Finally, I passed the medical checkout.

 

This was incredible experience because I just know that if we under pressure, our blood pressure will just shoot up like no body business. I am taking the doctor advice, he left the bed during the checkout and pinch my fat said, “ you should thinking about losing these…” I really felt guilty about it. So, from today, I will TRYING to do exercise…
