Ms Clumsy @ work
I slipped and fell in my toilet.. **sob sob**
I was preparing to take my shower after I reached home at 1 am. Then it happened. I slipped just when I placed my left foot onto the bathroom floor. And this meant, I wasn’t even in the toilet yet!
Don’t ask me what happened in that split second.. The next thing I felt was pain, pain and more pain. The loud “thud” awoke my whole family and all rushed to the toilet to see me lying stationary on the floor, groaning in pain.
The following sentence should give you a rough idea how bad my fall is…
The impact of my fall was so great that the basin in my toilet shifted position and a few pieces of hard cement fell on me.
At that moment, surprisingly, I found myself thinking what I could do to possibly protect myself in case the basin just decided to give way and collapse on me. But by then, my family had already gathered around me…
Through this incident, I seriously think it’s time for me to lose some weight.. hahaha..
Except for the fact that I am now unable to fully straighten my right arm and nursing super large bruises on my right leg, both knees and my left shoulder, I think I’m fine… It still hurts when I walk though…
But well, I guess I could count my blessings that I did not knock my head… Cos if I fell in the other direction, I would definitely knock my head against the toilet bowl, considering the layout of my toilet. And if that really happened **touch wood**, I dare not even imagine what would happen after that…

Snippets
I’m still waiting for my Taipei photos from FY… Apparently, her nephew hasn’t downloaded them yet… grrr…. More than one month liao
After ranting about it for the past one year, I finally bought a camera – Canon Ixus 70! But it’s now sitting at one corner on my desk because I haven’t got the time to go “meddle” with it yet… Feeling so broke now…
Work has been busy. With an exhibition and a cocktail function due at the end of the month, plus all the bits of work here and there, June is a super busy month. Kind of weird though. I swear I do not feel stressed. Just busy. But, I was working even in my dreams – chasing and scolding my suppliers for the gift samples or ridiculously expensive quotations. I’m way behind schedule on a project because of the company’s server. They did some server migration and somehow, it affected all my files… Either I can’t open my files, or I can’t save them. How exasperating!
Plus, I think somehow, my brain hasn’t been with me for the past week. I actually double booked myself for two business appointments at the same time, on the same day. Imagine my shock when I was just beginning my meeting with a group of people, and one secretary came into the meeting room and told me – with question marks written all over her face – that someone is waiting outside for me. Goodness! I forgot all about the other appointment. Such things never ever happened in my work life before. Sigh…
And I also forgot about an appointment with a friend, until she messaged me to ask me where I would like to meet her in the evening… What’s wrong with me?
Been so obsessed with Eason Chan’s song, 爱情转移，that I’ve been listening to the song repetitively in office. Love its melody and lyrics, especially the following:
感情需要人接班
接近换来期望
期望带来失望的恶性循环
短暂的总是浪漫
漫长总会不满
烧完美好青春换一个老伴
Not really feeling very well as I am typing this entry.. Swollen eyes and blocked nose… grrr… How to go out later like tat? Sigh…
