just a quick and hopefully short update...

Today was Valentine's Day! in typical leon+agnes style we had lunch at east coast hawker centre.initially had wanted to lunch at Sunset Bay Beach Bar, but they only serve food after 5 pm. who woulda thunk that when they open at noon on weekends.
after that we took a walk down the park.
then it was back home.
for dinner we ordered in Pastamania as we were too lazy to leave the house.

hurt my wrist the other day at work as me and a colleague were attempting to load up some bags of soil onto the pick-up. the bags were about to fall so I placed my hand under it,so as to lift up the bags.unfortunately my wrist somehow got twisted awkwardly or something so it hurts until now. I use a wrist brace at work and when I drive.
on another note, as a result of my injury I went to see a chinese physician for the very first time to get it treated. i went down to the big Chung Hwa hospital in Toa Payoh. the wait to register was long. there were like 50 people ahead of me when I got there. thankfully the queue cleared relatively quick. then it came to waiting for our turn to see the physician. the guy got there only 45 minutes after we got our queue numbers! and when he finally started to work he took like forever with each patient. we were like the 6th in line.
he did a few test to figure out what was wrong with me. and performed accupuncture.
we had got there before 6 pm, and left close to 10 pm!!

Nameless, my pet hamster finally passed away yesterday. he had not been eating or drinking much, if at all before he passed on, so we kinda knew that it was only a matter of time.
I buried him at the mass grave at the office. will in due time purchase some stuff to give him a proper grave. I have had Nameless since he was born, so he has been with me for would be considered forever in hammie years. gonna miss him. so there are now currently 0 numbers of pets at the flat.

there have been murmur of a dog again though...
