Before the trip.

I have the habit of writing really silly emo post, on impulse (though i meant every bit of it) and then delete it later on (like just 3 minutes ago) cos why should the world see me sad hey? The real reason is re-reading it makes me feel like a small girl who hates the world when everything turn bad. Bluek!

I'm pretty much happy now! Managed to pass my second block exams though I had (healing) a very virulent organism, Pseudomonas, residing in my left eye and affected my right eye a bit. My vision was blurred. I couldn't open my eyes properly, had bloodshot eyes, had photophobia, had to wear sunglass all the time even during the night, had to put 3 different eye drops hourly and all this one day prior to my exam. The bacteria it seems had infiltrated into the anterior chamber of my cornea. There's ulceration around the top part of the cornea. Only God and Lester know how much I suffer and struggle to study and mugged up Pathology, Microbiology, horrible Pharmacology and Forensic Medicine. The ophthalmologist was also worried for me and demanded that i go for checkup every two days. He said if it wouldn't for my exams, he would have admitted me straight away to make sure that i put my drops hourly. I even took the risk of losing my eyesight to go for the North India tour. That's what the ophthalmologist told me to prevent me from going and he said it's at my own risk. All i did was pray real hard and leave it all to God. 14th day of the journey, I went to the hospital in Delhi, the doctors said my eye is healing, changed my medication to a better one but I will have to stick to my pink dorky glasses! So, there'll be a permanent small scar on my cornea, otherwise I'm fine. ^-^v

Er, actually i didn't wanna talk bout this but dunno how i ended with this post. Maybe I just wanna let out how scared and stressed out I was during that time. The risk I have to take to proceed to the trip and the struggle to study for the exam and to answer the bloody exam papers without wearing my glasses. That's why i HAVE to enjoy the North India trip. I told myself at the beginning of the trip, I would not let anyone spoil it for me!

At least I enjoyed much of it... road trip/backpacking/japanese tourists-like attitude/friends, journey of sight-seeing, experiencing another part of India we didn't know. I've seen mountain, hills, river, palaces, forts, snow, desert, nature, zoo?, educational and bizarre things, all at one go. Hahah. Quite contented!
