Ok a review of things tt happened and significant parts of it.
I GOT CONFIRMED! HAHA YAYA
December 11th- Watched happy feet with church peeps
Watched happy feet, everytime got shocking or scary part, Bernice would hold my arm affectionately....BUT PINCH IT PAINFULLY haha but it was really fun.
December 12th-Bernice's Birthday
Went to her house, went with her to junction 8, then library, then to church. At the library, she found this cookbook with the item "SPOTTED DICK" which landed us in fits of laughter and a man kept staring at us as though we were crazy. So we went to church, were we took alot of pictures and also got a call from jonathan. I choked on my food and she scolded him with swear words tt i have never heard her say b4. Shocking! then at the bus stop sending her home, she saw this dog, and like she was so scared that she grabbed my hand and pinched my arm real real hard, actually till it bled. OUCH OK! so well, i made sure she was ok then went home myself.
December 16th-17th-Advent camp
Camp, but Ian and Bernice both couldnt go. so anyway, we had alot of games like Amazing race and Heartstrings game. During Amazing race, one group had to do forfeits like do a bimbo cheer, find frozen sausages, say a pickup line to shaun(LUCKY ASS) and also spell MISSISIPPI with their butts! That group was none other than the blue group, dear Kerlene's group! It was sadistic, but i guessed they had fun too haha. We each had secret pals, and like everyone supposed to have only 2, one to write to and one who writes to u, but i had 3! so yea i wrote to Alex, while 2 anonymous pple wrote to me, one calling herself " I LOVE SPONGEBOB". Whole camp, tried to find out who, and at last, i guessed correctly tt it was Miki! the other person was Yvonne, and yea both girls, people starting making noises haha. i wrote back to all 3 of them, but also wrote to my dear daisy duck(Alicia) and my "BIG" sister, Kerlene. we had a game which i helped shaun prepare and we also had a game where u write nice things about a person on a piece of paper on their back.IT WAS FUN cos i wrote nice things, pple wrote nice things, and like it just felt good. haha and yea, Majella, not even playing, started causing some fun and harmless mischief. haha we also had the christmas party, with andrew as Santa and Alicia as a Santarina! they both looked damn good in the suits, with andrew, a skinny dude, actually looking like a real santa. haha so then the whole saturday night, didnt sleep, talked to nicolette, alessa, francis and chris. loads and loads of gossip.
On sunday, we played some handicap game, i was blindfolded, then i walked into a wooden podium!OUCH my head hurt the whole day ok...up till now still bruise...then yea, we went to watch the Nativity, i had fun actually doing wad SJI 208 people do best: ACTING GAY AND FREAKING PPLE OUT! I sat next to marcus, who would not let me sit at the aisle...sob...so he had a nightmare tt night with me in it. HAHA then we went for mass after that...FATER ANDREW WORE HOT PINK! He looked so gay and funny...tried my best not to laugh in front of the whole church...but halfway, i kept falling asleep...then always wake up at the right moment so...lucky lah haha. All in all...camp was the best i had for the year! but tired...zzzz
20th December-Pissed
Ok, today, i got pissed at shaun. Y?Cos...first, he asked if today can meet to go out, i said i will ask, then he told bernice i couldnt, then he, bernice, bernice fren mayvin and kerlene went out without me. Ealry this morning, Kerlene was kind enough to ask me again, then like, by that time too late, too short notice to find babysitter for my bro, so couldnt go. then throughout, Bernice and Kerlene were trying to cheer me up. But well, its not only him tt i was not happy about, i also had something else on my mind which really really bothered me...so yea nvm. So anyway, SHAUN i will forgive you before Christmas la, i promised them alredy...and yea thanks Kerlene and Bernice for talking to me today. Loves!:D
Signed, Mattie(Donald Duck)

Bittersweet ending...or is it the beginning?
Finally, i post again.
Not that i don want to post, so many things just have happened. For starters, i was away at ACE camp for a week(don wanna talk about it, it sucks though) and immediately after that, i came back but was hospitalized. It appears i had contracted Diabetes, a life-long condition. Not sure when, not sure how. I hit an all-time low. You think its not macho to cry? well yea, when i heard the news, i was freaking depressed. i cried myself to sleep everynight in the hospital. The pain wasnt physical. Sure, there were daily injections, about 6-8 a day, but that wasnt wad caused me hurt. Wad pained me was that i would have to take a break from rugby, my passion. I would be able to play again, but when, was up to God's will.
The days in the hospital were depressing. I spent 4 days in the CCU( Critical Care Unit) where i couldnt leave the bed.(HAD TO URINATE IN A BOTTLE. HOW DEGRADING!) And there was no tv, no nothing. The four walls, the beeping of the equipment, the sound of my driptube and me. thats all there was. There were many presents from people, from church, my family and friends. These things helped, but i still couldnt get over it. i had many caring visitors, all whom made my stay in hospital more enjoyable. The nurses were very good too, very caring and attentive.( By this time, the drip tube in my hand was aching)Finally, when my condition was more stable, i was transferred to the general wards.
When i was transferred to the general wards, I had more visitors, as here it wasnt so strict. My friends from church, rugby, school, family and friends came regularly, my mom was the best, coming back from hong kong to stay with me, at night only would she go home. Ian, from malaysia, and his family were very kind as to come down from KL just to see me and go back the next day, with Ian staying abit longer till i got discharged. Ian teo, Jude and Bernice, from church, visited me very very regularly too. Amos came too and yea all of them caring for me was really really boosting my morale. The hardest thing about this journey, was having to face the facts, that i was now a diabetic.
My stay in hospital held alot of surprises, and alot of....stuff happened. anyway, fast forward, and 14th november, is a special day. HEEHEE. lol so random.....ANYWAY....Went home....and yea, alot of stuff happened. seriously. 14th november, is the day i was discharged, and there was another reason. haha
ANYWAY, now im home, and here i am blogging. alot of Pplez have been talking to me via sms, msn, and yea loads of thanks to u all. Many thanks to the pple who visited and cared for me in hospital, and yes, thanks to my mother. O yea! thanks to 2 people for really cheering me up this past 2 weeks. haha i think u noe who u all are.
I guess this is the end. but no, my story doesnt end here. This is the beginning of a new chapter, a new stage of life for me, and im gonna live it to the fullest with no regrets cos yea, life is very precious.
Love ya all,
Matt<3
