I shed a tear..

This whole week has been rather suay.. First I got a fucked up grade for my GEM (Raw grade C+), then my sister got an eye infection, then I almost lost my pencilbox, then my sister's boyfriend together with herself, they are now both kind of addicted to GB also. Worst of all, my grandfather was hospitalised due to some complications with his liver.( No he is not a heavy drinker....)

He's been in hospital since Monday and on Wednesday it turned out that his condition had improved and according to my sister, he was able to talk normally. However, there was some pus in his lungs and the doctor had to extract out that "abcess" or whatever thing. Thing his, my grandfather also had several other complications such as low platelet count as well as low blood pressure. I think I'm the only one reading this blog who hasn't taken biology before so all of you should know that platelets form the critical component in blood that induces clotting. So now our doctor gives him some drugs to help increase the blood pressure but this morning, evidently his body was responding negatively to the drugs administered so his heartbeat fluctuated and at a point of time, it stopped working for 15 minutes. (1st canteen break in 85 years..) Well even if you don't have biology background, typical channel 8 serials will tell you that it will cause "irrepairable brain damage".

I rushed down to hospital together with my sis and find that the doctor is now trying to 抢救 my ah kong. He comes out around 15 to 20 minutes later and explains to us very gently that it doesn't look too good and we should be prepared. Then I go in to see him alone because the doctor would only allow one of us at a time and my poor ah kong was lying motionless on the bed, with a nurse beside him and probably one of those apprentice doctors. The poor lad (apprentice doctor) was manually pumping oxygen down my ah kong's windpipe so it wasn't exactly a pretty sight. It was pretty sad because my ah kong has always been quite healthy until recent years with bladder problems, to see him unconscious with tubes down his throat and all that was certainly depressing at the very least. At that point of time I think my poor ah kong was probably brain dead already :( but anyway, I just told him that we're all grown up, we will take care of ourselves and basically, asked him not to worry and go in peace..

Driving back to school, (I had a Maths test at 4pm .. ) so coincidental that the Sandy Lam's CD had finished playing after I turned out of the carpark. Next CD was Jacky Cheung 张学友 and 1st track was the super sad 心如刀割. All this while the tears havent drop down yet but when I was on AYE I think I also cannot take it liao so a single tear rolled down along with 张学友的“不后悔”.

Although I'm not very very very close to my ah kong but he's my only ah kong left since my dad's father was gone before my dad could walk on his own. So I never saw him anyway... well at least my ah kong had quite a good life, no painful cancer, stroke, liver cirrhosis or weird diseases to plague his life. It would be hard to beat his record, 85 years hehe..

Anyway the Maths test was damned zer, I walked into LT24 then noticed all the chinamen there. Zzzz then the tutor flashed the transparency, that LT24 is for first 3 tutorial groups and I'm in the 4th so.. wah lau have to run to LT32 which is quite far away... and I mean RUN.. really ran like crap and managed to get there in time. Think should be able to pass the test but I left 1 question unfinished and another small part blank :(

After the test I borrowed TCS's phone to call my sis to find out that ah kong passed away shortly after I left. Sigh, perhaps if he stayed on and struggled it would have just been pure misery for him so... well it was quite expected anyway. Rest in peace ba ah kong :)

So much for a day, and I have to help out tomorrow... Thursday GEM test (Must get A+) and then Physics 1143 test is looming near(Dua zong). And she will NOT be free till the END of the SEMESTER. Yay... I'll vent it out on the books instead. Tennis anyone?
