Had a really short wk this wk; only worked 2.5 days as I was clearing leave on Mon & Tues and off on Fri :) Actually wanted to plan a short trip to Bkk w Dar's frenz but our schedules didn't work out and anyways I heard from them that the hotels there were rather ex. Anyways we have gone on 1 long trip and 2 short trips this year already so it was also a good idea to save $$ for next year!
Didn't planned anything much on Monday, merely lazed around and then accompanied Dar to find the eye dr @ Gleneagles. Dar's eyes (thankfully) are pretty much ok now after 3 ops on his rite eye and 1 on his left eye last year. But due to the retina ops, he has now developed cataract in the rite eye :( whilst it is not as serious as retina detachment, he has to go for an op soon as his vision is becoming more blurry. We reached the hospital rather late; about 5pm and were a bit worried that the clinic might have closed. Luckily they were still opened and Dar went in to enquire. Initially there was only 1 nurse/receptionist @ the counter and she was rather nice, giving a form for Dar to fill up and telling him nicely that he would have to check w e Dr's nurse whether the dr was still ard. But suddenly this nurse came up fr behind and said v rudely "We are not accepting anymore patients u know!" I looked up from the newspaper i was reading through and I was going to go up and scold the nurse but somehow decided against it!!! Gosh... so wat if u work in a high class clinic?!?!? If u were capable enuff, then u would be e dr and not juz the nurse rites!?!?!?! On the other hand, the dr was super nice! He recognised Dar as the "water-ski instructor" and they had q a good talk!!! The best part was... get this... he DIDN'T charge Dar for the consultation!!! We were q surprised but Dar told me dat this Dr is v nice and compassionate, he did a cataract for this guy they both knew for free as the guy did not earn a lot of money!!! It'd be good if there were more drs like that...
& on Tues, brought my little nieces n nephew out. Wanted to bring them to try wakeboarding but the boy said dat he would get seasick and requested for us to bring him to the fish farm instead whilst the 2 gals wanted to go the playroom @ Ikea. The boy wanted 2 buy a fish for his mum but we thought to buy a fish for each of them anyway. @ the first shop, the boy bought a Black Molly and the younger gal bought a little tetra. We left the 2 fishes in e car whilst we went 2 e 2nd fish shop coz we fig it was only for a while and whilst it may get q hot in e car... the fishes shd survive. However to our horror when we came back 10 min later, the little tetra has died!!! :( :( :( We were wondering how come the Black Molly cld survive whilst the tetra didnt when Dar figured that the Black Molly might have attacked the little tetra as it was v v v v v hungry! The little one was really upset and it didn't help that her brother kept teasing her. Her retort to her brother was "I'm goin to kill your Black Molly... I'm going to kill your Black Molly tomorrow!" And when her told her she can't do that as he suspects that the Black Molly is pregnant (which I honestly do not think so) and if she kills the Mother, the little babies whom are innocent would also be killed... the little one replied that the tetra was innocent too!!! It was really q funny listening to their conversation :) Hopefully, can bring them out on Haji or something... n then I will haf more stories to tell! :P
