心的频道：形象

今天在即时通讯五人小群里，猜中了个谐音梗的谜题，所以自我感觉良好，呵呵！

其实是因为不久前看的一出韩国恋爱综艺节目的名字，就是那谜底，而我凑巧还记得那节目的名字。

我如实告诉即时通讯群，结果很意外的有两位朋友很惊讶得知我看恋综。

我这么情感丰富的人看恋爱综艺很奇怪咩？不是理所当然的事吗？

应该是他们其实不是很懂我吧？

真好奇究竟我给他们怎么一种形象的？

Meaningless system, part five

After one month, another visit to the hospital. Third appointment with the nephrologist.

Arrived around 07:40 hours, for the 08:00 hours blood and urine tests. Very familiar with the process now, so self-registration, guarantee letter verification, then went straight to the lab.

No hospital personnel behind the registration counter and in the lab when I arrived. I just took the number from the machine, it said L001 on the slip. Then I found a corner seat and took out my novel.

Didn't noticed when the hospital personnel arrived at their respective places, next thing I knew was my name being called. So I kept my book and approached the lab. I was indeed the first patient.

The nurse at the lab mentioned it's non-fasting blood sample collection, so the nephrologist nurse pulled my leg as she wrote fasting (blood test) in my appointment card. Oh well.

The lab personnel was still as efficient as the previous visit. So thumbs up for them. I was done with blood and urine sample collection in a jiffy and arrived the nephrology clinic around 08:10 hours.

Just waited a short while for my turn to have my weight and blood pressure taken, then I was free to go until the 10:20 hours consultation. At least that's the time written on the appointment card, but for once the meaningless appointment system was sabotaged by itself, as the automated reminder system told me the actual appointment time: 11:20 hours.

Before I left the nephrology clinic, I double-checked the appointment time with the nurses there, asking if it's 11:20 hours (coincidently I didn't brought the appointment card), which they said yes.

I came home to get some work done before returning to the hospital closer to 11:20 hours, even though I was on half day leave. I returned to the hospital and arrived the nephrology clinic around 11:10 hours, brought along the appointment card this time and handed over to the nurses.

I was called around 11:35 hours, a lot less time wasted waiting this time round, since I didn't fell for the fake 10:20 hours appointment time.

After three consultations with two blood and urine tests, the nephrologist confirmed what's known from the medical check up two months ago: that my kidneys are unhealthy, below the average of people my age. Not sure why but the nephrologist made some educated guesses, he did mentioned those were just his guesses, unless we do more tests to verify, which he doesn't think is necessary.

He also thinks it's not necessary to go on medication, and gave generic advices about exercise, healthy diet, watch the blood pressure, that sort of things. Said we keep monitoring and to go see him again in three months time, with the blood and urine tests.

I noticed this time the nurse wrote non-fasting instead of fasting (blood test) in the appointment card, heh.

Haywire view counter

The view counter for this blog has gone haywire. =(

Since early February, the counter started to show lesser number than the day before on several days.

I can totally understand having 0 view, that nobody visited the blog on that day, but negative view count?

We can unsee things now? And the view counter is aware of that?!?!!

So hard to find, reliable stuff.

开工

昨天开工了。

网上看到的资料说是开工吉日啦，我八字的知识还不足，唯有盲从。

情人老婆仔去年中开始工作了，所以昨天我也给了她个开工红包。

过去几年就只是她给我开工红包，今年我也有得给她了，呵呵！

还是她写的开工吉祥语好，但我给她的开工红包除了吉祥语还加了钱。没什么特别意义，就是想要给她带钱的红包。

希望我们都可以有个工作顺心顺意的一年啦！

明天开工了…

两天农历新年公假、三天年假、前尾周末四天，一共九天的假期就这样过去了。

我还因为昨天开的长途车和三晚很差的睡眠累得不行，疲倦不堪呢。

明天就要开工了，不要不要不要！

唉～

放了长假应该是充了电，满血状况复工的嘛，我反而是更糟糕的状况。

真的很「显」咯…

Rest in peace, Squeaky

Rest in peace, Squeaky (3rd November 2023 to 13th February 2026), you were the most adventurous of the three hamsters we brought home back in 2023, and the most curious, acutely aware of our presence within your domain.

So nosy indeed that you stuck your head out of wherever you were resting so you don't miss anything. You would hang your head out standing in a container until you fell asleep and slipped back into the container, often jerking yourself awake to poke your head out again.

You made so much noise on the day we brought you and your siblings (well, cage-mates) home from the pet shop, hence 'mommi' named you Squeaky.

And you continued to squeak when you and your siblings all shared the two interconnected containers. You sure were vocal. You became quiet after we separated you and Pearly, after Brownie left.

Missed your squeaks since then, and only once did you made some noises for a lengthy period when 'mommi' was near, sounded like you were singing. You sounded happy.

Oh, and your angry hiss when the nephew disturbed you rudely. That was not a nice sound.

You were sociable and like to interact with us, unfortunately you also like to bite, especially 'mommi's' fingers and hand. You did bit me, but not often, and in the later days you no longer did that. But your biting branded you though, 'mommi' and your young owner did not like to interact with you because of that.

You were pretty good at making tunnels, you could make some nice round passages and hidey-holes. And when you were younger you would burrow everywhere, exploring every inch of the containers.

You lived the longest among all the hamsters we brought home so far, you outlived your older sister Pearly by two months. And thankfully you didn't had any severe illness or issue in your advanced age, only the minor degradation in your rear legs.

Thank you for being part of the family, I hope we had provided you a nice and comfortable life.

Now you three sisters are reunited in hamster heaven, I do miss you. All of you.
