a lil sneak peak of life in kk

hey peeps,
m back in kk
it's hot but m loving the food
air-conds rocks the sox off me
i love the food but have not been eating much
the weather is affecting my appetite quite a lot

getting lazier and lazier
being a couch potato
watching astro only

went out for dinner and coffee with ane yesterday
went to the newly opened upperstar at lintas yesterday
the food ain't great
fries were super soggy
chicken chop had too much flour
lamb was too fat
they did not served coffee at night +.+'
they ran out of diet coke
service was slow and poor
but i guess all these is due to the lack of waiters and waitresses?
plus they just opened?
lack of waiter and waitresses training?
lots of room for improvement

anyways, did u guys know how hard it is to get a good cup of ice latte here???
the starbucks here do not use fresh milk.... and they add the ice and milk into the coffee instead of the coffee into the ice then the milk last
it seems like not a big deal, but it actually makes a hugs difference
i miss brisbane's ice latte/ice coffee
coffee bean did not did a good job in serving ice latte too
the coffee did not had that nice aroma
it was just *blah*

oh btw, mom got a chihuahua as a pet =D
would love to upload some pics.. but i did not brought back the usb cable for my phone... will do it when i get the chance

gotta go for lunch nw
ciao ciao

take care
xoxo

home soon

for the first time, i do not know what to search on youtube >.<
m bored
and i do not want to sleep
prefer sleeping on the plane instead

gonna go back home in 9 hours..
soon soon
hopefully i would be able to withstand the weather
tend to easily fall sick or ill in extreme heat
bad bad
falling sick is no where in my things to do list

m bored..
gonna do some random search on youtube after this
anything will do

ciao peeps
the next time i update this blog, i would be doing so from kk

take care peeps

love hugs and kisses
xoxo

tomorrow is coming

ever slept for so long till your head hurts when u wake up?

i love the long hours of pure sleep

but it comes with consequences

sleep vs headache

i think sleep wins single handedly for me

-random thought-

it is the 23rd today

i am 21yrs old and 8 months old

i'll be leaving for kk tomorrow

can't wait to get my sweaty ass back home

indulge on delicious malaysian food

i miss pork!

aussie pork smells >.<

one thing that i'll really miss is the ice coffee~!

m a soon-to-be ice-coffee addict

i just love the strong aromatic taste

delicious

and also the caffeine

(^.^)

gonna try and live a healthy life back home

need to shed a few pounds to look pretty during work and placement =D

gonna increase the stamina too

wonder if i could get enough friends to play futsal together

zaza, we have to play futsal k~~~!!

i love the holidays

i love it when my hands are free

i love it when my brain is relaxed

i love it when i get to sleep

i love everything now

love hugs and kisses

-daph-

the examz have been conqured!

hey peep-os

finally, i'm done with 7 exams... yes SEVEN
m all relieved now
am happy to switch on my manic switch all day long
i can't wipe the smile on my face
it is there no matter what :D
i don't mind it being there, a smile takes less effort than a frown

anyways
it is zaza's birthday today =D
gave her a whole macbook pro box full of chocs
more than 3-4kgs worth of CHOCS
she'll be on a strict choc diet for these few days
everyone thought it was a macbook pro, hehe
surprise pulled off smoothly

played futsal at 2pm
it was awesome, finally some exercise
exercise helps increase the sensitivity towards insulin, so you'll need less units; huge PLUS
but always make sure to check that you sugar levels are in a good level and also that you have enough insulin in your body to avoid ketones from building up.
also be sure you have carbs and glucose in hand just in case u become hypo =D
you gotta care for your body or no one would
and also make sure your mates know how to react in an emergency situation (just in case you pass out)
futsal was pure fun; no artificial flavoring

after playing a few rounds of futsal
the others gave zaza and katek a surprise by bringing cakes =D

didn't had any, watching the sugar
took a few glucose jelly beans during the exam
so did not wanted any extra sugar for the day
staying out from the all hyped up zone

gotta watch the sugar levels again later on, kinda tricky and hard to predict how the sugars react right after a hardcore, running up and down game
and to make it even more complicated, m having pasta for dinner
one of the hardest food ever
sugar levels would be larger and scarier than a rollercoaster ride
unpredictable

oh wells, gotta try my best to understand pasta more
i shall be the pasta whisperer one day

oh, i took a couple of pics today
but sadly, the internet quota is all burnt up..
no uploading pics for now

gotta go shower now...

need to smell good

ciao ciao

have a great summer holz

love hugs and kisses

i is craving

chocolates
i crave for them now

studying is bad
it works up a whole pile of stress for me
more than i can handle
and it's making me hunt for chocolates
there ain't any at home
i would really like to go out and buy some
but the diabetic police would blow the whistle on me

mehhhh
gonna go drown myself in imaginary chocolate

*chomps on imaginary chocolate*

ciao

(^^) up up up away~!

after my paper, mom brought me for an early lunch
i ate a big mac and a single serve tub of yogurt

did not brought my insulin with me
which wasn't a bright idea at all
when i got home, sugar levels spiked up to 16.6 mmol/L
BAD BAD
got me pretty hyped up
i even sent gibberish text messages to rachie, zaza and gloryglorz
haha
that is me being hyperdaph

high sugar levels does so much to me
makes me all hyped up
and the worse thing is, it is super hard to calm myself down
can't even control myself at all
and i won't think before i act or say; very compulsive

got home, and instantly took a shot
am feeling a whole lot better now
not as hyped up as before

so the moral of the story is...
bring your insulin everywhere you go
i need to write it on a post it not and stick it on my forehead
tsk tsk
brain totally affected by all this studying

2 more papers to go
still hanging on

gotta start studying for tomorrow's paper now

take care

love hugs and kisses

my oh my

i could barely open my eyes now

my brain hurts

my head feels heavier than lead

took my 4th exam today

have another 3 more to go

can't give up now

half way through

i can do it!~

aites

all this positive thinking is making my brain ache

gonna take a nap

then start studying again for the next paper

oh btw, a lil update with my diabetic life

i ordered 2 medical alert charm online and it arrived today =D

both charms are the same

one is already hanging on my anklet

and this one below is to clip on my bag (or something else)

front view

&

back view

ME:

DIABETIC

INSULIN

"MARRIED TO NEEDLES"

DL

these charms would save my life one day

get one if you need one

it could too save your life one day

love hugs and kisses

daph

stopping from time to time to look around me

brought mom to the saturday market yesterday around 7am

i love the market; for the nice food not the fresh fruits and vege =D

my mom likes it for it's cheap and fresh fruits & vege

they sell meat and seafood too

i had langos (with cheese, sour cream, garlic, and sweet chilly) again

and a cup of sausage (which i forgotten to snap a pic of, again >.<>

yes, i love my german sausages. it is a must have every time i'm there

after the langos, bought myself a bottle of lemonade to try and mask the garlic breath (^^)

it is crazy delicious!! seriously

everyone needs to try this "krazy lemon"

the first time i had it was years ago, i love it, but i do not drink it all the time cause of the high sugar content

only once in a blue moon, when i really really really want it (i.e yesterday)

this my friends, is a Pedi =D

turkish bread stuff with fillings

in this one it was mushrooms and herbs

did not snapped a good picture of the filling inside

would have snapped a better picture with baby 450D, but the file is just too big to upload

and i've been using most of my internet quota on youtubing and video streaming

anyways, back to the Pedi

it is delicious!~

sandwich grill it and eat it while it is hot

oOoOoOoOoO

every bite toyed with my taste buds

one is a little bit too much for a person, best share it with 2-3 people

"killed by a toothpick"

i love blueberries~

they make nice midnight snacks

helps prevent the hypos from occurring too

it is healthy and high in antioxidant (that was what i heard, too lazy to find out if it is true)

blueberries in malaysia cost a bomb, so m eating as much as i could here in aus

back home, i would be indulging of tropical fruits instead

papaya, guava, tarap, jambu air, mangosteen, rambutan, and the list goes on....

it was yesterday night when i got bored and curious

i've been checking BSL ever since i was diagnosed

but i never stopped to find out what was in the cap of the strip bottles

noise came out every time i shake the bottles

i knew they were beads that "sucks" in moisture, but i never knew how they looked like

this is me being curious

i took a penknife and cut the cardboard beneath the cap

and found a cap full of these itty bitty tiny yellowish-brownish beads

=D now i know what is in the caps

kakaka

m being lame now

aites, gotta continue studying now

take care

love hugs and kisses

-daph-

it's today, world diabetes day

wear blue and support

understand diabetes
imagine living in their shoes

the obstacles they encounter every single day, hour, minute, second
it never gets easier

support world diabetes day =D

meter displays 6.7mmol/L (not 67mg/dL)

that is 2 hours after breakfast =D

that digit puts a huge smile, and it would do the same to any diabetics

knowing that it is controlled; not too high, not too low

a great start for the day

hope your day is as great as mine =D

love hugs and kisses

ciao

-m one proud diabetic-

away with the sorrows, in with a smile

got home slept, woke up for dinner, ate, then slept even more after dinner till 12am.

was still aching inside

then i remembered purchasing an anime dvd a month ago

"The girl who leapt through time"

decided to watch it instead of studying

had 3 exams and another 4 to go

i did mentioned in an earlier post something bout 7 exams wasn't too bad

and also did add in that i would regret saying it

now i absolutely regret it

god damnit, 7 exams is just too much for me to handle right now

the stress is harder to cope then imagined

this is me doubting myself after the "that" paper

gotta pull my socks and pants even higher now

anyways about the anime

it was awesome, mind blowing

got me off the edge

i love it!!

not gonna put any spoilers here

go find it out yourself

i highly recommend this movie

this movie took a huge load of pain away and put a smile on my face

it affected me that much

wish i had someone to cuddle right now

love hugs and kisses

xoxo

friday the 13th

2 news today

1) thank lord for gluco jelly beans or i would have shacked like mad due to a hypo

2) don't think i did well enough for this paper

i hate it

tried so hard to study and remember everything

but it seems like the effort never pays off

or the plain fact is that the brain ain't smart or hardcore enough for pharmacy?

m tired and pissed

mixed emotions too

super stressed out and depressed

i despise everything now

i wanna just drown myself in sorrow

till i become numb all over

till nothing around me matters

till everything disappears

till i lay flat and cold

such flood of emo-ness

life sucks a lot today

looking for a wishing star to wish upon

for a better tomorrow and also a better week

stay tune for the next post...

might be a cheerier one

hugs and kisses peeps

ciao

p/s friday the 13th; hence the dulness?

oral exam, "coles employee", prick prick

finished my 2nd exam

UTI in a pregnant lady... change medication due to contraindications

and Ural sachets... safe in pregnant women? no idea... the examiner kept on asking if it was safe or not... can't find anything in the AMH

so i stupidly said "i'm not sure, but i think it is" then at the end i added "if you would like to leave your number, i'll find it out and give you a call to reconfirm"

i hope i didn't went too bad

all i want is a pass

anyways, after exam, mom came to pick me up

headed to Toowong Village for lunch and daily walk around Coles

walking is a good exercise =D

"find your 30mins"

i was still in my student pharmacy uniform

and suddenly a guy came to me with an item in his hand

he gave me a stare, stood in front of me, then gave me a huge smile

he said "oh, haha i thought you were an employee here"

i gave him this blur look, then realised exactly what happened and why would he confused me as a coles employee

for some reason, my faculty decided that it is a cool thing to copy cole's uniform

ughhhh the colour & the cutting; a photo copy design

lame

huge fashion disaster

anyways, gonna try and catch up with some sleep in a couple

5 more papers to conquer

"all the best daphdaph"

will update soon

maybe tonight when m procrastinating (which i always do)

love hugs and kisses

xoxo

oh a little update on my daily diabetes life

- life has been pretty whacked out, out of order that is

not eating at the right time

not sleeping well

forgetting insulin shots

but the sugar levels are all good, not wild ones, no hypos too

the only problem is, i need to find other sites to prick besides my fingers... they are starting to

hurt, even from the salt on popcorns sends a jolt T.T

i tried my toes, but it's so much harder to get an adequate amount of blood

the arms gave to blood at all

need to get a new lancet device specially for arm and other sites pricking

orites, off to bed now

sayonara

magic mice

went to the next byte shop at uni on monday to get myself a magic mice

but it was totally sold out and their next batch order only arrives on the 16th

i needed a mice desperately as my old one wasn't functioning well at all

hence, i went and get it online instead

straight from apple

i placed my order on monday arvo and guess what, i arrived today via TNT this morning =D

it only took 2 days!!!

i love my new magic mice

it is awesome!!

pure genius

apple, you have once again amused me

tickled every nerve in me

and the jolt of excitement when i laid my fingers on the the mice for the very first time

speechless

i love i heart i like

i hope this mice would have a long life, as i have killed 3 mighty mouse in the last 3 years

all due to the excessive scrolling up, down, left & right pdf and word files/documents for assignments

anyways, oral exam tomorrow >.<

scary shit

gonna go try and study now

ciao

oh my~ could have went to heaven~~

in the midst of playing bejeweled blitz on facebook

something came hopping into mind

a couple months ago, i wan't a regular BSL checker

i hated pricking my fingers >8 times a day

because:

it caused my fingers to look ugly (you can see tiny red dots)

it hurts when i do play the guitar

and basically finger pricking is painful!

well before that i did not even knew i had to check my BSL so often due to the lack of education from my previous doctors back home

it seems like they did not took it seriously and they did not see Diabetes as a chronic disease

it could be mainly cause it wasn't their speciality too (that i can't blame them)

if the GP here did not insisted that i went and see an endocrinologist

i wouldn't probably be here anymore

or i could be suffering from tremendous complications

it was only recently that i started checking my BSL regularly

after being hit by reality and had my eyes opened

it is time to take charge of life

during the winter holidays (june-july)

i participated in the National Conference Games (NCG)

and i never did knew that a diabetic shouldn't exercise or participate in any sports at all when her/his BSL is above 16mmol/L, as it may cause ketoacidosis

i joined ping pong, futsal and basketball for NCG

and played hardcore!

futsal and basketball back to back

not eating or hydrating properly during the games

and the worst part was i never checked my BSL once

had no idea if my BSL was too high or low to play sports

the night after the games, i started feeling very sick but it never occur to me that i could be in a ketoacidosis state; till today

i am very grateful that i did not fell into a diabetic coma which might have lead to death

so, the moral of the story is...

despite how much you hate pricking and testing your BSL

it is very IMPORTANT to test your BSL regularly

it saves life

ugly fingers and the pain from finger pricking is nothing compared to your life

for those who do not know what ketoacidosis is:

click here

=D am feeling uber lazy to explain

and wiki does a good job at explaining stuff

moannnsssss

trying to study here right now

but my neighbor, lovely neighbor, decided to have sex

she moans too much

he has no feeling? (cause i have never heard a sound from him before)

or it could be that she taped over his mouth? you know, foreplay

oh god

corrupting my mind while i'm trying to read on common upper respiratory tract infections...

oh wells,

i can't find what was wrong with me early, i guess i would ask the GP if i do remember at my next visit

ciao

plain weird...

something funny is happening

i feel super sick now

nauseating

the feeling of feeling like throwing up makes me feel sick to the stomach

neck muscles aches like hell

and my mouth taste metallic

and sugar levels are dropping from 10.7 mmol/L to 8.0 mmol/L to 7.0 mmol/L in 38mins

i did no exercise except walking around coles and woolies with mommy

it certainly doesn't seems like a hypo for now

this is really something new to me

like i said, every step is a learning experience

will try and search the net and figure out what is happening

then would post another entry when i DO find out

m&ms

sat for my first exam yesterday
wasn't too bad, i hope
five more papers and an oral to go

i think i'm more of a positive exam person this yr
starting to realise 7 exams isn't that bad
i know i'll regret saying after a few more papers
but this is me trying to be positive and strong

have not realy started studying for the next 2 exams...
feeling super laid back now
i need to kick it up several notches

i couldn't hold back today
i gave in and bought myself a pack of m&ms crisp
gave up carbs during diner and supper to enjoy it and avoid the BSL rollercoaster ride
sugar levels for yesterday stayed below 10 mmol/l
which ain't too bad
but it did went to 4.7 mmol/l after i woke up from one of my afternoon naps, and only had a small plate of fried meehoon (vermicelli) for lunch

anyways, i heart dinner yesterday
had meatballs =D
a small tub of organic yogurt
and a small bowl of grape and cherry tomatoes (they are TASTY)

my eyes were too tired yesterday night, and couldn't just concentrate on studying
so i took another nap
and woke up around 4am
it's 5am now, and i've only read 2 lecture notes... many many more to go

gonna study for another hour or so? then head back to bed and wake up before lunch time
hopefully i do not oversleep like i always do
sleep is the best medicine for any students (coffee 2nd in line?)

aites
procrastinated long enough
gonna dive back in to study mode

p/s: did not ate the whole pack of m&ms at once... divided into 3 smaller portions

take care guys & gals
xoxo

tough and sulky day

it's one of those bad days

it is just bad

when m stressed out

and gotta do things that i don't want to

i stress out even more

i could feel everything in me trying to burst and just scream it off

but it ain't fair for the other who would be screamed at

so i try my best to just keep it in

the more i keep it in

the more stressful i get

the more stressful i get

the more cravings i crave

walked pass mcD and for some reason everywhere i looked, there were a mcD soft served cone or sundae

it's a calling to feed my obsessive cravings

i need something cold and SWEET

sweet tooth moment #540245021272507127587024557

it is the worst moment one could ever endure

it is fine if you could actually have something nice and sweet without feeling the guilt and consequences

but it would never be that way ever

it is worse when there is a "diabetic police" around

they constantly get on your back

yap yap yap yap yap

yapping about how high in sugar it is or how it would make your sugar levels rocket in space

it kinda makes me feel very angry (i think that is what i'm feeling)

what can one do around here to catch a break and actually have something sweet

moody and sulking now

how i wish there is a chocolate sunday ice cream in my hands

had not had one in yearsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

the one time i actually really really really want it, i couldn't

this sucks

waiting for sweet tooth moment to pass ASAP

"do you live to eat or do you eat to live?"

so emo right now (o.O)

blahssssssssssss

the drive to study has poofed into thin air

my saturday

all nighter pulled off

and went to the market when the mommy woke up, which was around 6am

it was already bright and sunny by then

loved the clouds

nice and clear

For breakfast i had:

langos (cheese, garlic, sour cream and a touch of sweet chilly sauce)

and a cup of german sausages =D

the best ever

i kept on reminding myself to snap a pic before i took a bite, but it totally slipped my mind when i took it in my hands

instantly with a fork, i poke into a sausage and feed it to my mouth

*oooOOOooOOoOoOoOoOoOoO*

nom nom nom till all is gone, till i remembered that i was suppose to take a picture of it

so here is a pic of an empty cup that was once filled with german sausages

bought 2 pedi (stuffed turkish bread), hv not snapped a pic of it yet

gonna have it for supper or breakfast =D *slurps*

got homeard 9am, and went to bed till 5pm

woke up feeling like i'm gonna fall sick ='|

*fingers crossed* do not need to be sick now......

ate tea with the mommy

and then went for a walk by the river with her

another picture of the clouds

i'm obsessed with clouds

pretty flowers =D

never took note of these steps before

do you notice anything wrong with it?

half black, half white

was it made intentionally or it colored?/discolored? naturally

graffiti

- out of order-

random picture of a vintage looking like door

i love the hinges

gonna have a super super late dinner soon

then start studying again =D

love hugs and kisses

-daph-

a normal day

i love today

no highs or lows

just normal

to some ppl, normal (when used in everyday context) is blah-boring

but to a diabetic, when it comes to blood sugar levels, normal is awesome!

i love normal

makes me happier than ever

i've been youtubing a lot on insulin pumps

it gets me pretty envious

and now, i'm super tempted to get one

but the only thing stopping me is the $$$-moolah

i'm an international uni student (nil income)

and unlike australian citizens, i've got no health benefits

am only covered by oshc insurance

and i don't think they would cover the full cost for an insulin pump

i'm not too sure how much one does actually cost, but it could reach to aud$5k

$5000 in cold hard cash @.@

for now, i guess it's a dream for me

sticking to insulin pens and 4 shots a day (that ain't too bad ^^)

any hows, m gonna head back to studying

then bring the mommy to the market to get some fresh vege and breakfast =p

the sherwood market sales awesome german sausages and also fresh turkish bread that has stuffings in it =D

tried the mushroom & herb turkish bread last week, and it is TO DIE FOR!!!~~~

gonna try the olives and cheese one later on

ooo~LALA

food = ORGASMIC

*but keeping in mind to always count the carbs =D

it's a pity i've got no pics to share with you guys, maybe later i would snap some, if i don't get over distracted by the deliciously mouth watering food

it is like me being a kid in a candy store

gonna continue with the studying now~~

all the best to all students who are having their first exam paper today~

toodles peeps

love hugs and kisses

=(

everyone has their own unique hypo (low blood sugar) signs and symptoms

been experiencing a few hypos these couple of nights
i guess it could be due to the lack of appetite? and also the late nights i've been pulling off
concentrating too hard, and not bothering to stop for a snack to keep my sugars up

i realized that the very first thing i experience is i start to shake a little
then it gets "stronger"
and then my extremities feels "cold"
then my neck muscles gets stiff
and i get really really moody
i will snap at anyone for no reason (which i just did when my mom opened my door >.< sorry mummy)

gonna eat a few pretzels before i go to bed
i do not wanna fall into a diabetic coma while i'm asleep =|

biom3011 14/18 lecture notes more to study.... i'm going really really really slow
gambateh~~!!! daph-san

experimenting on a rainy day

this is me

i would rather take my baby EOS450D out and experiment around than study for a very important final exam

this is not normal, or is it?

its been quite awhile since i played with my cameras

missing the thrill

long exposure

wanted to get that "glowy" effect from the lights of the apartments opposite mine

took this using my pinhole lens

its been a very very very long time since i used it, mainly cause i do not have a tripod

another fun picture

and another with more poses around

m not sure if it is due to the rain or if it's cause i've used up my quota

but these 4 pics took me ages to upload...

maybe it is also due to the size of the image...

hmm hope i still have enough quota to feed my youtube obsession

studying biom3011 now

soooooooo much to remember... my head hurts every time i try to enter a new information in

aites m heading back to studying

and i hope u enjoy the "fun" pics i uploaded for you guys

love hugs and kisses

oh where oh where have you gone $$

$280.50 - 25 pens of novorapid

$32.95 - 50 strips of accu-chek advantage

$485 - 25 pens of lantus

$12.50 - 100 of softclix lancets

$25 - 100 0f BD micro-fine needles

$32 - 100 of novofine needles

These are how much my stuff cost (average price)

i would spend an average of

$33.60 (novofine needles) + $7.50 (BD microfine needles) + $12.50 (softclix lancets) + $38.80 (lantus) + $158.16 (accu-chek advantage) + $11.20 (novorapid)

= $251.76 per month

don't use alcohol swabs, so i save money on that =D

such a bad habit..

you should really use alcohol swabs to clean the site of injection and also finger pricking, to decrease and avoid the risk of infections

$251.76 per month!!

i'm very grateful for my awesome parents

they've been supporting me throughout all these years since i was first diagnosed

thank you daddy and mummy, i love you both

unconditioned love is constantly being showered over me

i don't know how am i able to give back to you both the way you gave me

i wonder how would i support myself when i step into the working world?

would i be able to earn enough to pay off everything and support myself?

got to find a rich husband who is able to support me and also provide all the care i need (^^)"

oh wells, shouldn't think about work just yet

got to concentrate on graduating first

but before that, i got to focus on passing my third year final exams now

off to bury me poor little head into a pile of notes

*dig dig dig, bury bury bury*

adios

take care peeps

and all the best to all who are having exams

love hugs and kisses

bigger, tougher, meaner

woke up and took a shower

when i realized my bruise got meaner >.<

now it really got me thinking

what actually happened??

hmm could it be bubbles in my insulin? (don't think there were any..)

or did i hit a nerve? (there wasn't any pain)

or was i sleep walking and got myself into a fight? (not likely, coz i sleep like a pig)

such things like this gets my mind up and running...

curiosity hits harder than tsunami or hiroshima bomb

ladidada~~!

to hunt for answers or to just forget bout it and concentrate on studies?

exams are around the corner, and i'm still kicking it back and taking my sweet time

i know i'll pay for it cold and hard later on

oh wells... it is just me being lazy and a procrastinator

ciaos

off to lunch

xoxo

low low

it's 2.53am
started feeling all shaky and unwell
and also a lil confused and blurry
can't type properly nor could i snap a proper picture
but i tried my best

first think i did when i started feeling unwell and shaky
check my blood sugar levels


pricking my finger got a lil tougher
had to pricked it twice cause i couldn't get enough blood out the first time
second time was a success

then waited for the glucometer to give me a reading

and ta-daa
4.4mmol/L
kinda low


next thing to do is look for food~~!!!
so i won't pass out and suffer from complications
it is now 3.00am, and my mom is asleep... got to take care of myself or no one will
(haha and i doubt that zaza will come running all the way from st. lucia to toowong to save me during this ungodly hour)

no wonder it took a lot more effort to concentrate with what i'm trying to study
@.@

hopefully after grabbing a bite, my sugar levels won't go spiking up high.

a hypo should not be taken lightly, especially when u r a diabetic.
be aware and know the symptoms of a hypo
and also know what to do when u r experiencing a hypo

discuss it with your doctor or a diabetic educator

and tell the ppl around u about a hypo and what to do


off to feed myself now
xoxo
take care

mean bruise

hello hello

it was friday when i took a shot after lunch

was doing it while i was standing up, it did not hurt at all

but it gave me a mean bruise (lol, and yes za, it's not due to futsal, just wanted to make zoe feel bad =p)

it's monday today and the bruise is still there

sexy hor my mean bruise?

(^^)

ok, not back to studies... and more procrastination in between

love hugs and kisses

good luck to all who are having exams this week, and also all the best to those studying in SWOT vac week

just a sudden thought

smokers, i know none would stop when they are not prepared too

but what if someone close to you, maybe a loved one, whom have never smoked before in his/her life, but have been diagnosed with lung cancer?

a lung cancer that is caused by second hand smoking?

second hand smoke from YOU!

would u have stopped earlier no matter what and when?

they love you;

some love you and told u to quit hoping that u would

some love you and not utter a word about ur smoking habits because they know that what they say would hurt or offend u, which they do not want too

it would be too late to turn back time and quit when in present you could loss her/him due to ur smoking habits

Hypo does bad

One tree turning brown as if it was autumn, and another fully bloomed in spring.

The things that makes me wonder, makes me think, and also which eventually makes my head hurt.

The things that i would eventually fade away from memory unless reminisce every once in a while.

My raw wound. Freshly scraped knee while playing netball with a few of my friends.

Tripped over zuzu's long praying mantis like legs. thank lord it was nothing more serious than just a scrape.

My one day old wound. Healing pretty well, thank lord. Trying to take care of it the best i could to avoid infections.

Played a lil fun futsal today at oval 7 (which we got shooed off) & munro field. Was laughing at everything till my tummy hurts (^^)

Helps release stress and tension but it gave me a few aches here and there.

Not stretching before playing is the main culprit.

This morning was one crappy crap crap day for me. BSL wasn't too low, but kinda low. Cleaned myself up and brushed my teeth before i had lunch; woke up around 12.30pm (would have slept longer, but my mom came into my room to wake me up), was pretty tired cause i went to bed around 5am.

Am not sure why, but when i saw sausages and toast bread for lunch, i got pretty grumpy and started snapping around. I wanted something more"lunchy" than "breaky". I won't usually make a fuss/deal over it.. but i guess low sugar levels does "damaging" stuff.

We can't control how our sugar levels act when we nap, and it's super hard to keep it at a normal range. I apologize if i do become an arse at times, but please understand, it is unintended.

Super hungry tonight.

Gonna start studying in a while.

Take care.

xoxo
