| Plans to catch Kris Allen's autograph session in Midvalley Megamall was cancelled.
Originally thought of going with Sarah, since she's crazy over his boyish good looks, and eventhough I am not a great fan of his, part of me wanted to catch a glimpse of how he looked like in person.
However, once I found out that only the First 200 fans will stand the chance of getting their albums autographed by him, I lost my interest in going. IMAGINE, me, Justina Tan, would rather stay at home and do the actual CLEANING for CNY, than to get dressed up and meet Mr. American Idol Season 8.
Maybe I have gained more rationale over time. I just don't see a point in rushing over to Midvalley, being sardined by teenage girls who had just changed from their school uniforms in hopes of looking great in front of the Man of their Dreams, and risk having some crazy kid stamping on my recovering toe.
Plus, I have floors to scrub over here.  Having two elder siblings in the family did not prove to be of any good use at all In fact, I think I did more cleaning around the house than my sister AND my brother!
My 32-year old brother only knew how to order me around, saying things like, "Go help mum with the sofa covers" or "Remember to wipe this spot later", when he HIMSELF is always heading out or entertaining himself with episodes of CSI. 
Sometimes I think my brother enjoys ordering me around...
But to say that they did not help around the house is probably an unfair allegation. Perhaps it just seemed that way because I'm having my term break and spent more time at home than them.
Anyways, the results of the allergy patch test was out 2 days ago. The patch which turned black was actually GLUE.  No wonder the skin on my index finger became all hard and dry.
After the nurse said that I could have reactions even if I were to peel things like price tags off stationary items, I was instantly reminded that before my index finger became this way, I had glues sticking to the exact same area, and I couldn't rinse it off successfully because the adhesive from the price tag was really strong.
Hence, Dr Nathan told me to start wearing footwear with no glue intact. Sneakers, wedges, and my pink pumps were out of the question, since they have glue keeping the soles and the sides together. 
Brother said my only option was Crocs. Since every shoe is produced as a whole.
After the visit to the Skin Specialist's, we went shopping for my brother's CNY clothes Brother told me to pick a Crocs, and he'll get it for me.
Initially I chose this:
But it was an old design and the Size Sevens of the shoe were all sold out.
I was SO TOUCHED when my brother actually took the initiative to go hunting for Size 7 of this design in Pavilion, Lot 10, AND Sungei Wang, just so that I will have a good pair of shoes to wear in the long run! Awww *toucheddd*
Both of us went to every Crocs outlet and still could not find my size, so I eventually picked a newer design. And guess what? It was the last pair of Size 7 for THAT particular design too.
Just my luck, eh? But the pair was even more expensive that the pink one above. Kinda feel bad for making my brother spend so much.
I'll repay him once I secured a great job. But talk is easy, its better to let my actions prove it all.
Dr. Nathan can speak Cantonese. Woww!

| Today, I changed to a different skin specialist. Decided to head to my sister's physician, Dr Nathan for consultation regarding my eczema condition and the skin infection on my toe.
Dr Nathan told his nurses to conduct a patch test on me to check for allergies, since my condition had lasted for 4years, and he wanted to make sure that it was not a reaction from the shoes I wore or anything else.
The patch test was RM 350, and the consultation with him was RM 50. Although it was already discounted, but blimey, what a price to pay Patches of 12 different substances were taped to my back, and I was told not to wet my back in any way, so that the patches will stay intact and the results to my allergies will be more accurate.
Next appointment will be on Saturday. I have to resist the urge to scrub my back whenever I take showers. Sighh. Hopefully Dr Nathan can cure my skin condition.
All factors aside, I must say that he is indeed a good skin specialist. He takes a good look of your condition, analyzes everything, ask questions about the history of your condition, and does everything that a good physician does.
Compared to the previous skin specialist in Jalan Imbi that I went to, he is almost God-like!  At least that's what I observe now, for the first visit.
Anyways, on a different note, before heading towards Dr Nathan's clinic, my sister and I had a window shopping session in KLCC. Towards the end of the trip, I spotted a highschool friend of mine on our way out from the shopping complex.
Caught by surprise, I stopped in my tracks and went, "Ehh...That's...." Seeing my expression, my sister said, "Why, is that your friend?"
Me: (seeing him in a rather busy state with his current girlfriend, so I did not approach him) "Yeah....*laughs* He was actually kinda into me last time. Was after me before. Remember when Ko-Ko lost his handphone, I gave him mine to use? The miss calls that he kept getting back then was from him."
Then, my sister said something that made me roll about in LAUGHTER: "Ha? So palia wan..." (referring to his looks)
HAHAHAHAAA!  Although sis and I are different in many ways, but we are just as bias and judgmental as each other.
Such random musings. Do I even have the rights to criticize people like that...I am ever so mean

| Guys, this is officially the NINE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY DAY of me in XANGA!
I simply cannot believe that I have blogged SO MUCH. This blog held memories of my life ever since my Form 5 days and recorded memos of my joy and tears 
To actually keep an archive for the highlights of my post throughout these 980DAYS are virtually impossible, so I decided to link the memories of events that I cherish deeply throughout 2009 instead 
Just realized that I was really immature back then, letting all the little things bother me and losing my temper over the tiniest things.
Thank Goodness I am now a more improved version of that.
Anyways, if you guys have nothing better to do or simply wanted to retrace my past memories with me, come along, and click away 
If not, its alright. These links are for my own record sake and to refresh myself on the highlights of my 2009
