Hope 1′m Not 1nfected…

This has been a really scary and sickening (pun intended) week for me. Had minor signs of being sick as we travelled home for the weekend. Saw one doctor in Sitiawan and when we came back to KL, I went to visit another one last night.

And when you see two different doctors in the same week, you just know it’s not gonna be a good week…

My cough was getting worse, I was drinking a lot of phelgm, my temperature would shoot up on a regular basis (even though I’m not angry), and my nose started to run a bit. And since this also kinda affected my beauty sleep and feeding, Auntie D suggested that I should see the doc straightaway.

So, last night, the doc did some hearing and testings on me and said there could be some water that had already entered my lungs…and since my condition is very similar to the H1N1 flu thingy, my only options were to do a complete test, which I would only know the result in like 24 hours, or straightaway take the tamiflu medication as a precaution as if I had already contracted the flu.

Papa decided that since I was in the high risk category, taking the test wouldn’t be a good option so I have started on my tamiflu medication since last night. Apart from that, I’m also swallowing some bronchosaurus-whatever medicine for my cough, some anti-biotics and PCM for my fever. Sigh. How could Koko Collin love taking medicine so much?! I’m beginning to be really terrified of them!

Yeah, it’s really scary times for me so I would appreciate all prayers, yah. Hope to be my bouncy, cheerful, smiley self soon!

Colourful Conversations

Previously, Papa would be the one singing to me and talking to me in a one-way manner. Now that I can speak some words and reasonably string some of them together audibly, my car rides with Papa has definitely been more fun!

Here is a one colourful example of my numerous conversations with Papa…

Me: Papa…we going home ah?..

Papa: Yes Collin…we’re going home.

Me: Orh…we going home. Papa! Look! McDonald! McDonald! (I saw the M logo near Mines Shopping Fair)

Papa: Clever boy! You saw McDonald?

Me: Yes…I want to go McDonald…

Papa: Not tonight Collin. We’re going home now.

Me: Orh. We going home now.

Papa: Yes, we’re going home now. We will go t McDonald some other time, ok?

Me: Yes…Papa, I’m Batman!

Papa: Wah…Collin is Batman?

Me: Yes…I’m Batman! I’m strong!

Papa: Yes, Collin. you are strong!

Me: I’m Batman! I can run!

Papa: Err..ok. If Collin is Batman, who is Robin?

Me: No…no rabbit.

Papa: No Collin. not rabbit. Robin. Who is Robin?

Me: No…no rabbit. I’m lion!

Papa: No Collin…not lion. Robin…

Me: I’m lion. ROAR!

Papa: Errr….ok. Collin is lion. So, who is Batman?

Me: No..I’m not Batman…

Papa: Just now you said you were Batman?

Me: No..I’m not Batman…I’m Collin!

Papa: ?!!!

Blankety Jackety Joy!

Sometimes I really do envy the jackets that adults have. Especially during those chilly, cold nights..

Not only do they act as jackets, which are just so cool to wear by the way, they are also big enough to double up as blankets!! My jacket does not even cover my poor little toes! Sigh..

Last but not least, you can never resist that blankety jackety feeling! Hee! Hmmm..I think I am so totally following Mama’s genes here. Hehe..

Unknowing the Unknown

Apparently, I am not the only one in the state of the unknown about my tongue operation. I just found that that the location where my op will be is also UNKNOWN!

Yeah, isn’t that funny? The doctor nor his PA nor anyone else that works in the hospital cannot be sure if it is in Selangor or KL. So since this friday is supposed to be a state holiday for Selangor, we were just informed that the hospital suddenly came under Selangor area and thus would be closed this Friday! Haha…not.

So, Papa and Mama has since rescheduled my D-Day to 24 Sep 2010. Probably it’s a good thing too since I just contracted some cough and fever over last weekend and is only recovering now.

God does work in mysterious ways. Hee!

Tarak Tiara..

I noticed that those shiny crowns, or do they call it tiaras (?) seem to be synonymous with princesses and beautiful women. Does putting some heavy crown on the head make one look prettier? I have no idea…

Anyway, I also have no idea how it might look on me…because the closest I can ever imagine it to be on my head is when these Burger King crowns get put on my head!

Sigh…

<sing song> Some day, my tiara will come...<sing song>

Facing the Unknown…

Scary moments ahead...

When you have to face the unknown

Of going where you have never gone

Where courage is stocked at a minimum

And uncertainty overflows at a premium


I pray and look to God to provide

Strength, hope and friends by my side

To overcome this scary ordeal

And to quickly recover and heal

This Friday, I’m scheduled to go for a tongue releasing operation in the morning. For a baby, it really is the stuff of horrors. I have completely no idea of the scariness of it – which is pretty, erm, scary! Anyway, I could only read of what happened when Koko Collin went through this similar episode before and I know that many people prayed for him that time and I also believe that God answers prayers!

So, I would appreciate all prayers for this coming Friday as I boldly crawl into the operation theatre…

Family Foto Friday!

Munch! Crunch! Yum!

I’m slowly beginning to appreciate my new set of teeth. Apart from my regular doses of Mama’s goodness, cereal and soft porridge, I am sometimes treated to some hard crunching stuff that can only be broken up and enjoyed by people with teeth! Yay! I’m so glad to be part of that category now!

Taste-wise, it’s not so great, but I guess the fun is really in the chewing and crunching action! Here’s me enjoying some biscuity tidbits!

"Mmmmmm....crunchy biscuits!"

"I'm loving it!"

"no piece shall be spared! yummy!"

"Koko's guilty look of taking my biscuits! hhmmmph!"

Mama’s Little Apprentice

There’s no denying that I love to help out around the house. Whether it’s swinging the broom around, moving the vaccum cleaner, wiping the sofa, laundry, switching on the TV, I am always happy to help!

Recently, I have taken an interest in cooking too. maybe I’m just curious to know how Mama comes up with those delicious dishes, or perhaps I just love to ‘kay poh’ around. Whatever it is, you can be sure Mama’s little apprentice is always learning something..hee!

"Orh...so that's the way chopping is done!"

"Vege is good for me!"

The World’s Naughtiest Chair

Yes, I am still afraid whenever Papa drives through the car wash…

…and I am still afraid whenever Rotti comes running and sniffing at me…

…and I am usually shell-shocked whenever it rains heavily and I am strapped inside the car..

…but in recent months, I have added another thing into my list of terrifying stuff I am afraid of.

You see, there is a chair in the house that may look like an ordinary everyday chair to everyone else, but to me that is the “World’s Naughtiest Chair”. Everytime I commit some wrong doing, like throwing toys all over, climbing the stairs railing or even knocking MeiMei over (seriously?!), I will be ordered by Papa or Mama to get up onto the ‘Naughty Chair’ for a period of time and think over what I did.

You may laugh, but this chair is so sinister, it has evil written all over it. When I sit down there, I feel lonely, cold, isolated…..just the sensation of touching it is a step towards insanity…

Through my eyes, the world’s naughtiest chair looks like this…
