Woohoo! Summer's just round the corner!

Yeppers, I wanted to do it again, was waiting for my sis fren to come then got kakis to do it with.I think for my flight and the jump, because of the noise of the plane, most of us arent that tense and the instructor kept a jovial presense among us.
But the initial leap from the plane, from feeling gravity on the plane floor to suddenly no gravity, thats where the panic started. Its like doing the Hotel of Terror Ride & the Malibu Rider at California Adventure park. Its that you suddenly lift away from gravity/seat kinda feeling. (Thats where the panic started, but it faded when we stabalised and started flying face down.) It was cold though, maybe because of the snowy weather. I regret not wearing any decent sports gloves. Plus my face muscles was moving left right and centre because of the wind. Its ugly so thankfully I didnt request for vids and pics from up there.
Rest is floating down when the parachute opened. enoying the view.
What a wonderful experience! Pei fu you!
Oh and guess what? I was at the base today and saw my Estee Lauder friend. I told her about your spree and she gave me a gift which I'm going to give you.
Sorry to hear about your no-show friend. She could have saved you the expense. I really feel bad about your having to buy a whole new ticket back. What a rip. Hope to meet up with you one more time before you leave?
As for the weather, it will be a wet and cold Christmas for us, all the way through to New Year's. Say VK, we are thinking of heading up to Big Bear on boxing day. Game?

Hey! Me and family is waiting for the sore throat to pass. So if we are able by Christmas Day or I think you call it Boxing Day, we will be going to Big Bear to skii too! -
on the travel home part.
sis is a much better negotiator then I am. she called the travel agents and requested a refund of the unused portion of the trip. Looks like they will be doing it for her.
Me on the other hand, is a sucker it seems.
So now we are holding our breath waiting to confirm either the refund, the rearrangement of the flights or I have to buy a ticket back home.
Was seriously contemplating between Sg, Thailand and even as far fetched as Australia.

got the flu.
Even with the flu shot, me still not feeling as good.
Thankfully the kids are now at the grandparents and me and my sis are nua-ing away in the house.

U know that Kids have different strain of Flu bug than adult so when u r with kids your flu shot may not work. So if it is bacterial than u need antibiotic, but virus than you have to wait it out.
U might want to do some antibacterial cleaning within the house while the kids are out. It might help u to get over the ill feeling.
-
Okies. Going for those antibacterial wipes now. At least wipe down the doorknobs.
-
bathroom. fluid helps bacterial to stay alive for a week. Lysol spray are good. Clean off bedsheet.
Anyway today is a good day to sleep weather is nice and cool not cold.
-
have fun Merry Chirstmas.....je je je....
-
Done, I forgot I took some flu meds that contains codeine. So I was only doing the door knobs, the sofa at the den and the fridge doors.
Hope it wont spread any further.
And opps, sis dont have antibacterial wipes at home, and she dont want me to use bleach cos of the kids, so i used a hand sanitiser on a cloth.
Now back in bed typing and stop the world from spinning around me.
-
Clue that I am sick.
1) A sharp sore throat.
2) 71 Fereinheit this morning and the kids went swimming at backyard pool with their papa and I was complaining about cold and goosebumps.
3) Its now 51 Ferenheit that is 11 degree celsius! I used to walk from Roncho Santa Magarita at that temperature and feels only breezy!
-
take care hope u r well enough to go shopping.
well u got no fever so that is a good sign.

the top of my left hand, especially the portion between my thumb to my middle fingers have developed lots of ugly red and splotchy and raised rashes.
my sister saw it this morning and was like very shocked at the appearance. I am also having trouble flexing that hand. cos the skin are somewhat loose and hard.
Most part of my back, my inner thighs also have red rashes.
And my phelm coming out of my nose is dirty green, thick and with splashes of blood. (I dont know how to cough or spit out phelm lah.)

Instead of describing the symptoms in lurid detail for us, why don't you go see a doctor stat?

u should never buy any apparel online as there are plenty of fake. especially Lacoste
I learned from last year during after christmas sales it is better to shop in the mall than outlet.
