Name:
Location: Singapore

A Singaporean girl who graduated from a Medical College in the UK and currently working as a doctor, spending most of my years abroad burying myself amongst medical books, speaking Queen's English and trying to adapt to life in Britain. But I still remain a true blue Singaporean who loves my plate of char kway teow and enjoys the sense of closeness when speaking "Singlish" to my fellow countrymen. Why "The Chinese Doctor"? Because that's what my patients call me since they don't know my name!

Valentine's day

I spent my Valentine's Day with someone different this year. And I do hope it will be with the same person in the many years to come.

However, V day this year is pretty miserable for me. I have fallen ill. The dreaded cold is here, and I have been feeling lethargic and feverish for like 3 days already.

CG is officially broke now, so that explains why we had to have dinner at home. He cooked simple dishes for us, and it was great for me since I would probably skip my meal being too tired to cook.

Actually, I was quite excited about V day, but it's weird how my excitement died off when it was approaching. We had no plans COMPLETELY, which was odd. Afterall, it's our 1st V day together (and who knows how many we got left or get to celebrate tgt in the same place). Most importantly, it is his 1st time celebrating it with a gf, and I thought maybe it will mean a lot to him. But when I somehow sensed that this wasn't a very exciting or significant day to him, it probably contributed to my excitement dying off.

Watching how others were flooding into card shops, supermarkets and florists to buy something for their gf/bf, I felt sorry for my own because I didn't plan anything at all. I wanted to make it extremely special and memorable for my boy, but I don't know why I didn't come up with anything. I was worried he'll be disappointed, so I went to get him a card and bought him a top.

He was really happy to see it. Am very glad that he loves the top I got. I was worried he would not like it, or say something not-very-nice without realising it. He looks good in it, and I do wish to see him wear it when the weather has turned warmer.

My boy bought me a rose. It did come as a surprise since I really thought he wouldn't bother. It's now placed nicely near my window in a vodka bottle. The rose is really pretty. It bloomed so well.

I slept straight after dinner without talking much. Feeling hot and cold is terrible. Am grateful to him for taking care of me despite himself not being in the best condition (he's also ill...).

It's pissing to be ill this week since I'll be off to the wards in a hospital which is kinda inaccessible, hence resulting in me having to be up VERY early every morning. And I have to cancel my trip to London with him as well! ARGH! We've waited for this for ages, and this had to happen...grrrr. Will wait for the next weekend I suppose...sigh.
