Locked-in syndrome...again...and birthdays...

This week was a mixture of good and bad...more good though...which i'm very thankful for...i wasn't on call during the weekdays...so i had time to go to church to practice keyboard after work...Suet Lai asked me to play the keyboard for her during this Friday's worship...since i suck big time at playing, i needed more practice...also, this week Alisa (with Anthony and Darrien) and Chiew Ping came to USM for their stats course...so it was good to have more friends around...

So one of the days when i went to church to practice keyboard, i got locked in again when i was trying to come out of the church...church was on the first floor...so after i was done locking up and went down the stairs...there was a door and a grill downstairs....and i couldn't open the door despite unlocking it...it was bloody stuck...Alisa was outside and i asked her to open the grill to help me unlock the door from the outside...but she said the grill was locked...i was quite alarmed as i remembered i didn't lock the grill..

As i was panicking in the dark (coz i turned off the light at the stairway), suddenly the lights went on...and i heard doors being closed and locked...then suddenly a man's voice asked, "tak boleh buka pintu?" i was quite shocked that there was another person in the unit...i found out later that apparently there's someone staying up at the 2nd floor...so i said, "tak boleh" in my most despaired tone...and he said, "cuba pusing ke atas"...so i turned the handle upwards and voila!! the door opened...thank God for that man...coz if it wasn't for him i would have been locked in for quite sometime...again...but really, how would i know that i had to turn the handle upward to open a door? that's just not normal...

On Thursday, i had to be delivery girl for my boss and seniors in OT coz they just couldn't bear to eat the OT food anymore...i had to drop my ward work to go buy food for them...really, back in KK, my bosses would wait for us MOs to go for lunch together...and if anyone went to ta pau, it was when the person is free and didn't have ward work pending...sigh, i guess i've really been spoilt in KK...i guess this is the price to pay for having sold my soul to the devil...i actually had a very naughty thought while buying them food...i wanted to put a lot of chilli and sambal in their soup...but my conscience won in the end...

Thursday was also Khalil's birthday...and i have yet to listen to his new album 15...although the package from HK is sitting at home in KL waiting for me to open it...So Friday i played keyboard at church...i played as if all the week's practice didn't mean anything...coz it was still bad playing...so i had to turn down the keyboard's volume so as not to injure any musical ears...came home and slept for 3 hours...then a bunch of us went for dinner at 4 Seasons...and then after that went for dessert at Red Bean Cafe...gosh...weekend has become feasting days for me...since i hardly get proper meals during the weekdays...

So now it's early Saturday morning...and i'm on call later...and i'm wide awake coz i slept earlier in the afternoon...dang!!! it's also Joe's birthday today...sent him a birthday wish msg which he replied with a virtual kiss, hahaha..felt bad that i'm not in KL to celebrate his birthday with him...since he actually came back from Penang to celebrate my birthday with me...i should have asked for this weekend off and gone back to KL...but it's my fault really...i actually didn't remember that it's Joe's birthday today :P...such a horrible friend i am....oh well, good friends will understand that even though we're not near each other, our thoughts and prayers are always with them....Happy Birthday Khalil and Joe!!!
