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!

Absolutely thankful that the storm is over. All it took was courage to open his door to take a look at him. And all I needed to feel better was to cry out hard in his arms, rather than cooping myself up in my little room and crying myself to sleep.

I didn't say anything much because I couldn't put my emotions into words. I could only ask him if he wanted to be free, and said I'm hesitating all these while because I'm worried of making a move I'll regret my whole life. It hurt him tremendously and I knew it from the tears that rolled down his face when he was trying to sleep. He didn't take time to think at all to give a firm "I'm not leaving" as an answer. And I knew he was set to keep us going.

I cried so much for the past few days that my face started itching and turning red. It was quite painful too. I guess my sensitive skin's quite sensitive to my tears, and with the weather becoming quite cold lately, it has worsened my skin condition.

Got some advice from his cousin, and ended up spending on pretty costly skincare products FOR ONCE! I've started purchasing Biotherm products before I came back this time, but it's only the foundation and lip gloss. Heard a lot about their moisturisers etc, but nv got to try them cos I think it's too costly for me. However, so many people have been giving me good feedback about it, and since my skin's in quite a bad condition, I decided to just give it a shot.

I must say I'm pleased to have purchased it because all I needed was 1 DAY to calm down the redness and dryness. It's amazing what the mosturiser can do. I used the rest which I used to use, but none of them worked. Love the cool feeling it brings when I apply it too and it absorbs really quickly! My face is looking much much better now, which makes me pleased.

Was calculating costs yesterday, and telling my bf that I can buy 10 Garnier moisturisers with the price I paid for 2 Biotherm products I bought yesterday - Moisture Intense Guard & Aquasource Non Stop Moisturiser. My heart was aching, even though I know it's kinda worth it for the results. And he was laughing over my stinginess and how I was so particular about using more than the amount required for my face.

My day today didn't start well with some problems with data collection and with period cramps. The cramps this month is really bad, and I was worried that I might faint in my room from it (it happened before..so I'm cautious), so I went to rest in his room instead. Had a hard time dragging myself out of bed from my nap to go to the dentist for a check up since the cramps were still there.

My boy took great care of me today, knowing that I'm in pain. He accompanied me to the dentist despite having gastric pains, and even suggested going to The Pancake House to have chocolate fondue with me after my appointment. I didn't have fondue in the end though, but settled for a pancake instead. I enjoyed it very much. It wasn't so much about the pancake, but more about the thought that my bf bothered to suggest it and having him share it with me.

I took a nap again when I got back. Couldn't get into the mood of doing any work, so I spent time watching Healing Hands III instead. And when I went to the kitchen, I saw a pot of stew which I love eating. My bf actually prepared dinner for us..and he spent more than 2 hours just to make that pot of chicken. I was touched...very very touched. :)
