Baby... 你就是我的唯一...

The very first live paid concert that I've attended! It's so cool to be in a stadium watching a live performance. =) Eyes couldn't stop tearing but I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. =)

Spinky and I were given inflatable balloons that said "I Sony Ericsson my hero" on one side and the name of the concert on the other:

My balloons deflated pretty quickly. -____- While Spinky's managed to stay firm throughout. =P

As expected, he concluded with "唯一" *swoon* Was hoping that he'ld do a piano solo as he sang that but it's still wonderful with the band. =) After the concert, Spinky and I attempted to catch sight of him leaving the stadium but only saw a dishy "side dish" - his 20-yr old Aussie guitarist Chris, who's doesn't know anyone in Singapore (according to Lee Hom) and is probably like 1.8m tall. =P

Anyway, Spinky and I resolved to buy tickets on the ground level (instead of at terrace level i.e. low/mid-priced tickets) for future concerts. =) And we concluded that the concerts that we are likely to want to go are Jay's, Mayday's and of course, Lee Hom's next one.

Oh Spinky! Realised why we only counted about 7 albums when "蓋世英雄" is supposed to be album no. 10 - "公轉自轉" was actually his 4th album. =)

I'm sure Spinky's preparing a full report on yesterday's concert so keep a look out for it on her blog!

Took leave today. Took a nap at 5 pm. Woke up at 7+ pm thinking that it was the middle of the night cos the house was dead silent. So weird to be home on a Friday night, and on the eve of a public holiday at that.

But this couldn't be helped. My right eye can't stop tearing. Went for a follow-up check up this morning. To date, FIVE eye specialists have inspected my eyes. At least they seem to have come to a conclusion of what I'm suffering from - Microsporidia infection. Microsporidia is a fungus, which I distinctively recall studying about in Microbiology class in year 4. Though I can't remember what it looks like, or what characteristics it has. Shall google it later.

So anyway, the doctors said that the infection is on the superficial layers of my cornea, so it's not that deep to require operation. In fact, the specks on my left eye are apparently healing; some are just forming scars. However, the specks on my right eye (apparently there are two of them now) were quite large and the doctors were concerned. So the doctor ordered photos of my eye to be taken for the records. Then she put some numbing eyedrops (local anasthetic) in my eye and scraped it with a needle. She promptly transferred the cells to a microscopic slide where she had earlier used red marker to draw a circle around where she would place the cells. Reminds me of the good old days... =P

The doctor gave me a prescription of painkillers (Ponstan), to be ingested after food and with anti-gastric pills. The same pills that I got after my teeth extraction during my orthodontics treatment 3 years ago. The doctor had warned me that it would be painful. Thought it couldn't be more painful than the teeth extraction BUT I WAS WRONG. I guess the painkillers worked better with teeth. =P Eye has a stinging pain and can't stop tearing, which results in a runny nose. Think I've lost lots of water today through tears. Hope my eye won't be too swollen tomorrow morning. And that it'ld be a lot better cos I still want to enjoy the Lee Hom concert with Spinky tomorrow night!

On a lighter note, my primary doctor's quite cute. She keeps asking me if I needed a MC, and kept checking what my allergies are. =P And I'm still quite amused at the number of doctors who have seen me. Should really thank the optician who spotted the specks in the first place. And thank the Cell for praying for me. =) and Prozac from being my consultant. And you-know-who for sticking with me through the process. *hugs*

That's the mark just above my right elbow. Got it somehow from paintball today I guess. Though I really don't remember getting hit there.

Paintball was... breath-taking. Literally. Suffering from the severe lack of exercise, I was. It was quite fun. =) Quite amazed at how no one really noticed me in the last game in which i shooting left, right, over the target. Despite the fact that I was wearing a bright red top which everyone commented to be "excellent" for camouflage. =P

All roads lead to OCC - it's just a matter of how long it takes. For a while, we thought we might end up in Johor and panicked over the lack of passports. Nonetheless, our driver WJ deserves a big thanks for showing us parts of Singapore which we might have not seen before. =)

WENT TO SEE LEE HOM@JUNCTION 8! Quite glad that I did. Nice poster. =) Too bad he was looking away when I went up to him. He was less than a metre away! I'm pretty sure the Ultimate LSR fan's sister was out there somewhere. Made a pathetic attempt at being a screaming fan. =P Should practise so as not to disappoint Spinky at the concert on the 21st.
