I struggled for some time to decide whether which type of doctor should I visit – western or Chinese physician. Alas, I took the latter. I was …

The Door Pull-up Bar
[Thursday, 14 December, 2006] The pull-up bar at the first room My elder brother bought a door pull-up bar for nearly $30. It was extendable and both sides had to be screwed into the frame of the door. I was not sure how strong it was and I doubted the firmness of the wall. It …
I made it home!
I was amazed that I could make it home in the end, but however, almost fully exhausted myself. Ou Xiang had kindly dug out her barbecue equipments for me but due to my disabilities, I could not collect it from her. This dragged on and the owner of her current accommodation, her auntie, had been …
Chicken finally!
[Thursday, 19 October, 2006] I finally took my first piece of chicken in the afternoon. I had not eaten any chicken since exactly a month ago after my operation. At night, I had chicken soup but I did not really like the taste. It was not that I was crazy about chicken but eating fish …

The haze and my poor health
[Saturday, 07 October, 2006] The haze was so bad that when I woke up I felt uncomfortable. My eyes were tired and I started to cough a little. There was also irritation in my nose. I went near the windows to see magnificent view of the haze. The buildings far away were blurred. There was …
Updates of Leg Condition
As my mum helped me to redress the wound before she went to sleep, there was still discharge as usually at the lower part of the wound and it was dried again. I intended not to dress the wound anymore to save money and also to air it, however my mum was afraid I might …
A complaint letter
[Wednesday, 27 September, 2006] Gilbert had rectified my language and contents of a letter written in rage; it had somehow demoralised me but definitely made me realise how incompetent I was. He prompted me with many questions and left the final editing to me. In the end, I did not send it to the officials …
