In Aug, i sprained my back after a MEGA sneeze and couldn't get up. I was stuck in the toilet and panicked 'cause i had to do flights later on. Kept rubbing my back and finally pushed myself up wif both hands. It was terrible.
I thought this was it.. that I'm gonna be paralysed in the LOO!
Luckily after consulting 2 angmoh doctors and 1 'fucker' sinseh, taking a holiday for a week and the care and concern of my family(bringing me to the docs) and bf(helping me to carry my bags and any heavy stuff), my back is as good as new.
Bad experience. Next time i shall sneeze as loud as possible so that the impact will not be transferred to other parts of my body.
So if u hear my sneeze, please forgive me.

In Sep, i went Taiwan for a 7 days tour + 2 days extension. The tour cost 1300++ and the extension was on our own expenses.
And then, so heng, we kanna the damn typhoon on our extension days.
Shops closed early.. Those roadside stalls not open.. even Taipei 101 was closed!
It was a waste of our money. I didnt get to eat my favourite bbq squid for the 2nd time!! So angry that we planned to go back in Mar 2009.
But it was something that we could never experience in hotty SG. The news channels(taiwan media had over 10 channels of news!!) reported on the typhoon everyday and they were so hyped about it, they even send their reporters up to Yang Ming Shan to report the weather condition! You can see the poor reporter trying to hold on to her umbrella which is on the verge of flying off and trying to talk on her mic at the same time. LOL!
Even my umbrella broke into PIECES when i was on the way back from Dan Shui old street to the station! The metal sticks just broke when a sudden gush of wind blew in an opposite direction. Amazing!
Pictures soon.. once i cracked my photoshop. Expired liao cannot use. Damn!
