Chalazia
I woke up very early today, thinking that I can make it to service at Church. Come to think of it, haven't been attending church frequently since 2010 started...However, something happened. My upper left eyelid was swollen. Thus, I decided to make a trip down to my family doctor before going Church. To my great...'surprise', the swelling is actually a symptom of chalazia (cyst in the eyelid that is caused by inflammation of a blocked meibomian gland. btw, meibomian glands are the glands in between the base of our eyelashes)
Just waiting for the doctor took me around 2 hours plus? Cause he was very, very late. I only had my consultation way past 1130 because he reached his clinic at 10 plus when his clinic opens at 0830! Thus, by the time I finished my consultation, service was over. I wasn't able to attend church once again.
Well, met my aunt after that. She was having some Chinese classes nearby in the neighbourhood. Together, we went for lunch, bitched about guys. This time, different, the conversations were plainly, our rantings and complains about guys. I find myself getting more and more emotional. I almost fired fatal arrows behind my family's back which included my relatives too. Think again, was I getting more emotional, or was it cause I was sitting in between 2 emotional women.
Perhaps that's the distinct difference between an emotionalist and a rationalist. Emotionalist will never get things done well cause they always let their emotions take control over them and not do anything about it. On the other hand, rationalists ALWAYS put their emotions behind them, solve the problem. And tada! At least something has been done or improved.
My mum was kind enough. She sponsored 2 cups of bubble tea - one for my sis and one for me.
In the end, my mum and I only drank 2 mouthfuls of the Passionfruit Ice Blend. The rest was taken by my sis when I was sleeping.WTF. There was jolly well another cup bought specially for her. It was Strawberry Yoghurt eh! Worst still, I told her 2 times directly in the face that I can't take dairy products cause of Chalazia! Yet, she was like telling me, " Oh, you can take the other cup in the refrigerator which you put in. Caused I finished the Passionfruit."
WTF! My words totally fell on deaf ears! I can't believe this. In the end, I have no more bubble tea to drink. Reason being, was asleep for 1.5 hours after medication.
