Hmm..maybe girls should just sleep together.

On a more sombre note, Singapore has just discovered its first case of H1N1 today. Not surprising at all, given that we have such an open economy and are welcoming to all visitors. What is worrying though, is how much longer do we have to wait before it becomes an epidemic? Although it is apparently less potent than what experts thought and the recovery rate is high if medical treatment is administered on a timely basis, I can’t deny that this is a worrying trend especially since I am expected to travel over the next 2 months!

I haven’t been doing much this month as I was down with a really bad flu that lasted a grand total of 3 weeks. I still have so much phlegm in my throat that I wonder if I am a swallow incarnate.

Nonetheless, shopping still ranked high on my agenda as I went on a spree this month and am now feeling broke yet satisfied. I do spend within my means, so I am financially sound despite my spending habits. I could, and should save more though, but sometimes, giving yourself little treats does so much to lift one’s spirits.

An outfit that I wore last weekend. Was still sick then so that explains the pale face.

First, I fell really ill. Fever, runny nose, sore throat and cough – well, you get the drift. That’s not all. I’m currently on the verge of losing my voice too.

And if you think that is bad enough, there’s worse to come.

I broke one of our wine glasses when I tried to put a bowl back into the cabinet yesterday night.
It shattered into what seemed like a million pieces. Glass bits were scattered around the sink, by the side of the sink and all over the floor.

I spent about half an hour cleaning up the mess, and for those who know me, such things do not happen to me because I am usually very careful!!

So anyway, I felt rather unwell at work today, so I left the office early to have some rest. Come dinner time, JW came home with a packet of fresh starfruit juice, which is supposed to be really beneficial for my throat.

Sadly, it ended up on the rug because I was drugged, having taken medication and all. I stupidly left the packet of starfruit juice sitting on my coffee table while I took a call from my boss.

In the wink of an eye, the juice erupted from the plastic bag, like lava from a volcano, and now, part of my rug smells like starfruit.

Goodness, I don’t really want to know what’s in store for me the rest of this week…..

Anyhow, here’s a really outdated post which I meant to write eons ago but just never got around to doing it.

I like how clean Camp 5 is. The floors are carpeted so I would usually lie there to gaze at the rock wall or take a quick nap while waiting for JW to complete his route.

Here’re some pics of him climbing…some grey route which seemed pretty difficult (as you can tell, I really know nuts about this sport!). LOL. Well, at least I know this route had lots of crimps and pinchers.
