vday was exciting... to say the very least... but saying the least isnt what blogs are about... so here goes... guy and i are total cheapskates... we refused to pay exhorbitant prices and jostle with the flower-toting crowds on the date itself... though i enquired about dinner at prive on keppel island... only to find the earlier (sunset) seating fully booked... so we treated ourselves to a little Flutes at the Fort on the 13th... okay... he paid for it... but his angbao collection is about 7 times of mine... place is real pretty... colonial architecture... dressed tables... art that i din quite comprehend but liked some anyway... then the actual day itself came... truth be told... although we kinda agreed to no presents no flowers this year... i was feeling kinda green coz every other girl is toting blooming bouquets... even the guys too... so i pouted and hid my head under the quilt the whole evening... but the drama truly began when i decided to snap out of it... drive down to the singapore river with him... for free music by the river... the cheapskates that we are.... but as i rolled off the bed... the left side of my chest started to hurt real bad whenever i tried to breathe... which truly equates to every 2 seconds... and especially when i breathed in deep... guy got me to lie down... and we waited... thinking it will go away... as it sometimes does... when it didnt... after a whole 10-15 minutes... we decided maybe we should drive down to TTSH instead... since the guy just lives a couple of bus stops away... then it hurt like hell when i tried to get up... i panicked and started crying... he called the ambulance... resulting in what i call... my first, and hopefully, ONLY ambulance ride... 3 paramedics fussing over me... + 1 boyfriend... taking bp... giving me oxygen... putting me on the rolling chair/bed/transformer... the ride was extremely short... and probably a terrible waste of money... but i did get better on the ride... maybe it's the pure O2... got to the hospital... got an ECG, X-ray... and the doc gave me a puzzled look and said nothing seems to be wrong... dad and mom finally came by... i started tearing again for making them worry... and i was discharged... 0005 hrs 15th feb... so vday evening just flew by like that... we did kinda have a replacement evening though... No Country for Old Men at Vivocity... dinner with a seaview (kinda...)... tiramisu/bailey's icecream... and a walk down singapore river.... only to end up at the raffles statue... and trying our darnest not to look like cheapskates wanting free music... so my vday really was a 3 day festival... quite awesome if you think about it... ----Stef stopped rambling at 23:33 --Link to Post |
