After getting 2 days mc for the flu, i tot i'll juz go get checked if i did catch H1N1.
went to another clinic nearby at westmall. did the influenza A test and the results were positive.
so the doc gave me another 7 days mc till next tue.
he prescribed tamiflu which i'm taking now. tom is the last day of meds.
been feeling quite well the last couple of days. dun have a fever, only slight cough.
and for educational purposes, contracting influenza A doesn't mean u've contracted H1N1 as there are many strains of flu A viruses. H1N1 is juz one of the strains.
so i'm only on 7days mc, not 7days quarantine.
but i thank u, my frens for ur concern and ur medical advice.
and i'm sorry if i've given some of my frens a scare when they found out.
hope u're all fine.
i dun even know where i might have gotten the virus from.
feeling pretty good rite now. cant wait for the liverpool match tom evening!!
gona b camping there at the stadium real early.
so frens who are going and wana form up bigger "contingents" at the east stands, gime a call.
the more, the merrier and more fun it will be shouting n singing.
did more studying last nite, trying to learn more of the LFC fanchants.
never really did learn any of the chants. hahaha... hope the atmosphere will be super.

The Day I Walked A Lot
Note: i started writing on sunday but was too tired n lazy to finish.
Wad a day it was on sat.
started w late lunch at victor's kitchen w ben n jacq.
awesome stuff.
first up was the glutinous rice wrapped in lotus leaf den the har gaow, carrot cake n some veg dumpling arrived. all yummy.
while eating the above, the siew mai w quail egg and the spare ribs came.
siew mai was a little dry but not too bad. the spare ribs were nice n soft.
This is the end result of round 1:
Den round 2 began.
1 plate of fried beancurd roll and 1 'long' of some teochew dumpling pictured below.
the dumpling damn shiok la. it's got bits of meat, turnip/radish, peanut, chives in it.
and after dat was round 3 consisting of 1 'long' of the oyster sauce char siew pao.
thankfully there's only 2.
the char siew damn shiok also! the meat is damn juicy tho cant really taste the oyster sauce.
damage to the wallet was abt $60 in all.
up next was lots of walking.
after parking at timbre which has free parking after 5pm, we walked to ACM to catch 'The Unguarded Moment' by Steve McCurry.
when we arrived, we saw the photo submitted for the photo contest and we tot dat was it. felt a little cheated.
and some of the entries which were put up were kinda crap coz there din seem to be a central focus or not in line w the theme.
but jacq picked up a brochure and read dat there IS an exhibition of his works.
so we asked the ppl at the counter and we were told dat it was on the 2nd floor. Note to ACM: put up proper signage!
the minute i reached the top of the stairs n saw the first foto, i instantly saw the difference in quality of the photos by Steve and the contestants. and his fotos were truly amazing. the subjects of his protrait fotos all seem to look straight at, into and through u as u look at his work. if u need further proof, here it is. yes. this was taken by him.
after the exhibition, we walked to funan coz i needed a new flash for my old skool camera. but no stock. coming in on monday :(
so next we walked to raffles city coz jacq was looking for a rash guard. walked ard and couldn't find one she liked.
so we took a train from city hall to somerset. coz ben wanted to get citadels from paradigm infinitum.
and it seemed like an adventure taking the train again.
if memory serves me right, i have not taken the train in like 1 1/2yrs since i started driving.
after getting his game, walked ard OG next to centrepoint to look for crocs. not finding any i liked, we chilled at starbucks for a while.
den we walked over to orchard central to have a look at the new mall.
and who would have tot this happened.
met the thambie.
chatted for a while. den ben, jacq n i walked back to somerset to train back to city hall to meet up w fel n mark for dinner.
dinnered at BK. den walked towards the car to offload our stuff n to go visit the peranakan museum.
but halfway there, it poured. like majorly poured. sought refuge at stamford house - the building where mph used to be. i think.
after a wet adventure, we reached e national museum and walked ard. went for the vernon panton exhibition.
i love the forms he uses for his designs, not to mention his use of colors. damn retro lor! but den... his designs were all done in the 70s.
(i think. cant rem exactly :P)
den we juz chilled ard in the museum waiting for 10.30 so we can go outside to watch this german troupe perform.
i'm too lazy to write liao. enjoy the fotos.
to end it off, i want to complain!! y cant blogger put new fotos at the bottom of the post instead of being right on the top.
v mafan to drag down lor! anyone who has a fast method of arranging fotos, pls pls PLS let me know.
