The unavoidable

Sometimes as u know life can be so unpredictable.. they happen when u least expected it. I just got home from the hospital.. My grandfather is warded yesterday because out of a sudden, he could not move his lower left leg. We thought that it was because of his blood sugar was too low or something.

They did a brain scan and the doctor came with the results juz now and explained to us. It turned out that my grandfather suffered a minor stroke, that explains his sudden left leg paralysis... They showed his brain scan results, there's a slight 'activity' on his right brain which controls his left part of the body. But now he can move his left leg already, the doctor shows that he has shown great recovery. However, it does not mean that we can take this incidence lightly as his condition is not stable and he may fall down easily. We must make sure that he does not fall because he was given heparin (a substance which 'lightens' the thickness of the blood so that the occurance of a stroke may be reduced), if he falls n bleeds, the time taken for him to stop the bleeding will be prolonged greatly because of this heparin.

I thought I was holding out quite ok, but as I was saying my goodbye to my grandfather juz now.. I felt something heavy in my throat like as if I would cry.. I pray and hope that he would be ok..... =O I will visit him again tomorrow before my lesson start.

Oh, we got our couple phone too yesterday from Hello! Shop in Orchard. We finally decided on Mitsubishi M900 after a loooonnggg time of weighing pros n cons. Our first time also spending this much for a handphone! A hefty $500 a piece! Eekzzzz.... But the plan is really cheap!! Cuz we signed up using our CIS (Corporate Individual Scheme) from TTSH. We signed up for the "iOne Plus" Plan $14 only!!! kekekeke So wu hua! But the contract is 3 years, we can still renew our contract after 12 months or 24 months as usual, so we're both pretty ok with it.

Our choice was narrowed down to either Sony Eriksson S700 or Mitsubishi M900. I am staying away from Nokia cuz all of my previous phones are Nokias n frankly speaking I'm getting pretty sick of Nokias now hehehe... Though dear is really keen on this 6680, the new Nokia 3G phone.. still very ex at the moment and both of us really won't be using much of the 3G services, so getting a 3G phone wud be pretty much a White Elephant, other than the fact that it's cool =P

This Mitsubishi M900 is frankly speaking one of the best featured clamshells around in Singapore. It has 2Mega pix Camera, 15MB internal memory, 32MB external mini SD memory, 64 polyphonic, Video Recording, MP3 playback n ringtone, GPRS, infrared n etc etc hehehe satisfies more or less what dear wans (external memory) n mine (mp3 ringtone) wahahhaha... so there we have, our very first couple phone ^_^ a first 'couple thing'. Our numbers are also very close!! The only difference is our last digit hehehe His is 1 and mine is 4 kekekeke =D We have to send it for software upgrading though, which dear mentioned that it's not free =( N he did warn me though that there's no software bundled with the phone. Oh well, as long that there are pros, there will be cons as well yah? =)

As for the moment, we are pretty satisfied with our babies ^_*
