Belated Happy New Year.


Belated Happy New Year.

Hope everyone had fun on Xmas and New Year.

For me, Xmas was spent having dinner with SS, family and relatives. It was nice. New Year was spent with SS and his friends gathering for BBQ. Good as well, ushering in year 2012.

And things went downhill from there.

Before the end of 2011, I went back to see doctor for pimples again. It is creeping back and affecting my looks and confidence.

First thing in 2012 that happened was I dropped my toothbrush into the toilet not long after getting back from his friend's place. Next up, I got bitten by his while trying to do jogging. Because the collar slipped off and afraid that the ran off, I grabbed hold of its neck. he didn't like it and fought with me, injuring my hand in process.

Prior to that, the was in unhappy mood as SS stepped on its paws and I nudged him with my foot, causing him to clamp its mouth around my ankle. Then the was being stubborn in wanting to go his way, so there was much resisting, pulling and me nudging him that he snapped and we struggled until the collar slipped off.

Blood was dripping from fingers onto the road. We were stunned, the finally calmed down and sat there. SS quickly leashed back the and led the home while I followed behind slowly. Trying to stay composed and resisted the nauseous feeling and seeing stars. Tried to wash the wounds and bandage it up the best we could before going to sleep. Thinking it just need better bandage at the clinic and let it heal.

But at the clinic the next day, the doctor advised us to go to the hospital as one of the wounds was infected with pus developing. I ended up being admitted to the hospital, wheeling into the op room to clean up the wounds and wheel in again two days later to stitch up.

Best part, I had a scheduled interview and not wanting to miss the interview. I attended the interview in my patient clothes. How memorable. But wasn't selected in the end and smacked with a hospital gift bill from the dog.

So now I am typing with one hand, resting at home and trying to look for jobs at the same time..

I've always been told that the right thing to do is to look for the positives and pay no attention to the negatives... Hmmmm... ...

So is it a good thing that the dog was not a more aggressive species?

Wise men say everything happens for a reason, that there's a silver lining to every storm cloud...

Whenever I'm down I really feel so sad and disappointed too, but somehow positive words creep into my head to rationalise my reaction; not the experience, you cannot rationalise the experience really but just your reaction to it.

So... chin up, coz this too will pass...

Take care! Hope your hand will get better soon! It's just the start of the year. I'm sure it will get better as the year progresses. Maybe after CNY!

Interestingly enough, you're the 2nd person who I know of (well, if you consider this as 'knowing' you...? ) which has a hand injury recently....

Take care of yourself (and the dog...). It definitely sounds like much has to be done with the dog.

Nevertheless, i like that good luck will come to you and you can find a better job.

Good luck

thanks for your concern. no, nothing was done to the dog. The dog is still alive and kicking and untrained but slightly tamed and mellow around me now. I will feel bad if the dog was taken away, it was partially my fault too.
