Of Wedding, Death, Sickness, Everything New and In Betweens

         Didn't write sooner because i was down with a horrible viral flu, and then i got busy with my over-the-top sister's wedding preparation. The flu was really bad and it lasted 3 weeks. It started from my dad and then me. Then it's my mother, sister and the whole house. The only good thing that came out was the fact that i wasn't able to smell anything and therefore i had no sinus reactions. Sinus free for almost 3 weeks. 
         So many things happened during these absence. One of my cat died and i was grieving for almost 3 days. It was such a painful loss. The vet told us that he was poisoned. Dunno whether accidentally eating it or forced fed by some naughty kids around here as there is one evil kid in our area who's well known for torturing cats. I pity those parents for breeding such a future 'un-sub' (loosely quoting from Criminal Minds). Then again, i seriously think that for a future 'un-sub' like this, he deserves a capital punishment. Murdering and torturing cats - they are living things too. I hope my beloved cat is in heaven right now, with God. We buried him just outside our fence's so that we will know and can visit his final resting place. Pain in my heart, no one will understand. Cried for two days and was grieving for a week. How can i forget this kitten that i took care of since the first day that he was born last dec? And then he's gone this dec as he turned one year old. Goodbye, you're always in my heart.
        Then in the midst of all raging flu, i had to attend a 3 days meeting in relating to work. I'm a first timer and when you're with a flu, that's it. All the logical senses are gone not to mention your hearing and everything else too. And so i did bloopers while marking and had to re-do all the marked papers. At the end of everything i thought that my right arm was kinda cramped or something like it. And i'm taking a break here to relax my brain and body before the next work load starts again. 
        PMR came out. As expected, we went down again this year. Am i unhappy? Yes. Am I devastated? Probably. Am i disappointed? Not really. Kinda seen it happening already. So now on to the post-mortem and all and another year of grilling by the education people. 
        The old made in China's laptop screen was damaged by my sister. Cost of repairing? RM650. and so i got a new one. A net book. and my sister is forbidden from touching it. And she still has to repair the old laptop. Perhaps she can share the cost with another one of my sister. And i've upgraded the internet connection at home since my other sister's requested it for the longest time. She wanted to download all her fave Korean serials and other movies. And i told her to download stuffs that i wanted too as well. Plus, she has to share the monthly bill as well. 
         We also bought a new tv. A 32 inch Toshiba Regza slim, flat screen. Those old tvs that lasted 5 - 10 years were finally losing their lives and so although we appreciated their service, we had to let go. My dad was impressed with the slim tv features. And he was impressed again when i bought that Acer Aspire One which is only 10.1 inch. As i have always wanted a small one that i can carry anywhere and can fit in my big bag.
         I didn't go to gym this month due to my flu and busy work schedule. I think i won't be marking papers again, next year. Too much hassle. Probably i'll try for pmr, at least it's not done during the school hols in dec. I missed my friends. Thank God two of them came to my sister's wedding and i was able to spend time with them. I have neglected them so much in the past. 
            Okees dolls, gotta stop now. If i write more i can go on forever and then my work will not be done.
