I have failed countless times to update this blog, and I have a feeling no one really reads anymore. However, since this was where I started writing it always feels most comforting to return to write short bit about my life here
I was browsing today this article where a number of individuals had submitted pictures or scans of their teenage diaries. I have hardly graduated out of teenhood myself; once a very interesting character told me that you don't truly stop being a teen until you've passed 25 years of age. Sometimes not even then. Yet I can't help but look at (the now hidden) entries that used to chronicle my life in secondary school and then in junior college. I was a very different person then, and yet, not so.
As I write this now, I am waiting for myself to fall asleep, for the memories in my head to die down so I may just tumble into a nice dreamless sleep.
Yet sleep evades me, as it naturally does when you need to wake mere hours later for the most important task of school. It feels so new all over again, because people just come and go and come back again.
But enough of my rambling, I should really try to at least close my eyes and lay down, and hope that eventually sleep will take me.
To all those people who left my life, I miss you. You know who you are

Hematochezia
hematochezia. in short, bright red stools, which, of course, indicates that there is BLOOD in it. there has to be at least 3-4 (around there lar, i can't really remember) tablespoons of blood in the stool before it qualifies as hematochezia. (wonder who will go and measure the amount of blood in their stool *marlz wonders*). note, black or tarry stools are NOT considered hematochezia. causes of hematochezia are numerous. on eis a gastointestinal ulcer which is bleeding. another cause is rectal bleeding. to save words, just take hematochezia as a signal that something is wrong in your digestive system. hematochezia can also be accompanied by vomiting of blood (read : very dangerous) blood in stools also can be an indication of a tumour (read : very very dangerous) which, in turn, is an indication of colon cancer (read : more dangerous than you can ever imagine). this, of course, depends on the type of stool. more often than not, hematochezia is indicates hemorrhoids, which is enlarged veins in your rectum, or more commonly known as piles. however, if you ever have bloody stools, especially if it lasts more than a day, then GO AND SEE YOUR GP IMMEDIATELY. get that?
most of you will be grossed out by now, or if you aren't grossed out then you're just wondering why i'm talking abt hematochezia. been really crazy these days. give me a lil word or some term that i've not heard and you see me online looking it up. hematochezia is one of them. and whatever you do, don't get me started on scaphoid fractures. just a friendly warning ya.
i thought my stomach pain went away, but NOOOO, its back. i wonder if my tummy wil ever get well. its been sometime since i last blogged anyway. i was feeling better but then my stomach has gotten worse. oh well.
been doing some crazy stuff at home. dictionary has become my favourite books. pick words out of it that no one has heard and call my siblings names using those words. i even picked out a word for myself to tease my mother.
wunderkind - origin, German
wunderkinder, wonder child.
i prefer wunderkinder though. lol. so i use that word on myself and compare myself to the other children, saying that i am the wunderkinder and they are part of yakuza. haha. i found many other words too, which i shall not list here.
i went out today to tm as soon as i woke up to see my mom and AK. acherlie i met them at the library and then went to TM. actually went to look at prams for my new cousin, Nurifka. but knowing us, we looked at everything else as well. saw alvin and huimin. hehe. i changed my watch strap since the old one is broken. now my watch is wearable again! then aft that we went to AK hse to lepak. AK wanted to make bingka ubi so i helped her grate the ubi. so fun. i love grating jobs. Adaweya was at home already, laughing like a banshee. then Farid came home, followed by Faqih. was very farnie lar.
mummy and me took a taxi home but i decided to go to the library instead. so i borrowed some books and bought mummy's margarine and got home. kinda tired. was already 8+ pm when i got home. sigh.
remember kids, always tell your mummy and daddy if you notice you have hematochezia.
nitenite everyone
