Going Back

Tomorrow I will be flying back to Arizona with Jerlyn.. with alots of thoughts in my mind.. My Sister condition is doing well now after 2 weeks of High Dependency Unit care from the nurses and the medication to boost her Blood Pressure up, to keep her fits intact and also the Tachy problem that causes her to have the operation.. now it seems that she had to go to nursing home next week after her discharge, her nursing home cost might incur a financial problem to me and my family.. Thou i had some saving to spare but there is still too much things i need to settle with money.. my Housing with Jerlyn need money, my eczema need medication, Jerlyn nose problem need medication, my dad health need medication, my mum health need medication and now my sis need medication..

Thinking of ways to cut costs and save money as I need to learn a better ways to manage time and money.. one of the ways is to extend the stay in PC.. so i can save more.. and also cutting down on the junk foods too.. if extending is not a option for me, I hope i can go back to my old base in Tengah to work so I don't need to travel so far to Changi to work.. the transport expenses will cost alot. And also I can spend more time for Jerlyn and my sis too.. All these i need to talk to my trade IC and hope he can help me get a better posting..

Two weeks back in Singapore didn't really go anywhere except everyday in NUH.. Only manage to went to few places to eat.. Went to Ang Mo Kio Ave 1 to eat the Chili Crabs that Jerlyn craves, went to Takashimaya to taste Mookcakes that I craves, went to Bugis and Orchard for walks and chat with friends, and also West Coast Park Mac and Clementi for food.. Went to Pandan Gardens to pray for my sis health too..

Now that tomorrow I will be leaving, I hope that everything will turn out fine, my sis can recover eventually.. and I hope I can get a better outcome for my posting for next year after i talk to my superiors.. Life getting tougher every year.. I also hope Jerlyn and I will love each other more and she can getter with her nose problem, she can get a better job when she come back with me next year, she can slim down to her desired weight and also she will have a healthy baby in a few years time when we try for our next generation..

Feeling Sad

6th Sept 09 - Went to Sedona, Arizona with Jerlyn, Boon, Jia Min, Ming, Serene, Winson, Chua, Bro Tan and Wei Xin.. wake up early in the morning boon and i went to budget to rent 2 cars for the trip.. it was a long ride.. stop at Anthem Way Mac for breakfast and move on to Sedona.. as no one ever went up to Sedona before except Ming who went there few years ago during his 1st trip to USA.. No one really knows where to go.. so we just drive where we think is correct.. stop at one of the places to look for hiking trails.. but cant really find it.. walk till Jordan Historical Park.. there is nothing much there actually.. So we decided to go to the Slide Rock State Park instead.. One of the places that have stream water from the mountains and can slide the rocks down the slope.. Few of the guys went to play including Jerlyn.. can see that she was having fun.. After the adventure.. we drive down back to Anthem Way.. wanting to go for the Outlet Shopping but by the time we reached.. its closed.. so no choice went for dinner and ended the day..

7th Sept 09 - wake up in the morning saw my bro msn saying my sis was in hospital.. Not knowing what happen i msn him back waiting for him to reply.. as Singapore was night time.. i waited till the night in US so i can call back and ask.. but just whn i thinking of calling.. my bro called and say my sis is in critical condition.. having operated on her throat in the morning of 8th Sept Singapore time.. I couldn't sleep after that.. called my superior about it.. wanted to go back Singapore as early as possible..

8th Sept 09 - Got to go for work but wasn't in the mood.. told Tim and Rusty about it and they were kind enough to let me go back squadron and get the administrative stuffs and air tickets done.. Waited quite some time for the air tickets and Jerlyn and I flew off in the evening at Sky Harbour Airport Phoenix.. Transit at LA and Taipei..

10th Sept 09 - Finally Reached Changi Airport.. went back home and met both our parents.. wanted to go hospital but the visiting time is over.. got to wait till 5pm for the next visiting hour..
Saw my sis for the 1st time since Dec 08 when I got married.. Can see that she is suffering from those tube and injection.. feeling so sad looking at her..

11th Sept 09 - Went to see her again.. was told that her blood pressure is quite low.. needed medicine to keep her blood pressure up.. she still in HDU ( High Dependency Unit) and still in observation.. Don't know when she can go to normal ward.. Haiz..
