Vaccination Day

25 June 2021, Friday

7.49- 8.20am

I have been struggling between dragonfruits or my laptop. I bought the dragonfruits yesterday as a gift for Tony and brother but I was feeling bad for choosing laptop over it in the end.. I picked up the dried cuttlefish that I purchase online as a 2nd plan as it's not heavy nor chunky.

 

9.30am

Drop off from LRT PWTC with a 4 mins walk to the centre hall. The whole pathway is stuck with vaccination buntings, floor stickers and signboards. Outside the centre, I see the white tent, it's where the entrance is.

All registrations and waiting process, and with my dark green backpack, feels like joining askar. XD. I'm the only one who has the heavy looking backpack around while most of them

The queue process There's 3 stations, mine is Station 2.

 

9.55-10.00am

I have my vaccine at booth no.22, where two nurses attend 2 patients one at a time in one booth. My nurse first asks which arm I would like to take. Secondly, she showed me the vaccine needle contain 0.5ml amount of AZ before she applies into my left arm. 3rd, I scan the code on the  table before leaving the booth.

10.01-10.15am

E8 booth - I and other 2 ladies are given a Vaccination Card each with a time written on our filled forms.

I'm given 15 minutes rest at an area with distancing chairs, to check any unusual symptom right after vaccinated while filling up the Vaccination Card . Then I and the others are proceeded to leave for a photobooth session.

Photobooth took me quite a while for my turn. We help each other to snap a photo.

Train time takes another 15-20 minutes wait and reach brother's house at 11.44am - 12.15pm. Tony brought me up because brother was having an meeting session. We have lunch after I showered. 

I just remembered my brother's floor 38, I recalled thinking this morning, and I was right. We have quick lunch together before everyone have their free time.

1.32pm

My head feel slightly heavy.

 

2.00pm

Brother woke up from nap, and continue his work. I have been texting with mom after lunch. She asked whether I wore a mask in their presence, only then I realized we had lunch in one table, and everyone seem fine. I guess that's how Covid is easily transmit to close families, because our alert can lowered to 0% when with closed ones compare with friends, colleagues and strangers. We just suddenly forgot all that distancing rules.

 

2.48pm

I start feeling sleepy and yawning but I think it's because after a meal and waking up early today.

Today's Dream 1

=...= forgot

Today's Dream 2

A classroom? Damn.. am I in school uniform...? Embarrassing skirt! A teacher is coming desk to desk. She placed a shot at the back of my classmates neck. Then she proceed to place a needle shot on the right palm.

I was afraid of the teacher's doing. She seemed to have bad ideas behind something. I was hesitate when she turns to me. She stood behind me, whispered on my ear.. before she placed a shot behind me. It HURTS. I quickly got out the classroom when she was short of needle.

The shot on the neck had me fainting. I struggled on the hallway.

2.42pm

I feel slightly dizzy, I went for a nap after some sketch.

5.12pm-8.59pm

The curry rice is delicious. The mango as dessert is sweet. I took a shower, dress up and pack my bag. Waiting Grab.

36.7 temperature when boarding train. I'm the only one boarding. Slowly a few several has passengers boarding. The train is chilling.

28 June 2021, Monday

I'm an apprentice working with experienced sisters. My main work as an animator  buy drawing. One day I was tested and finally given a task to do keying. I was really happy, however, some time later, some of my previous works was checked by another sister, she upset about those mistake, she returned those to me, and had me punished by doing labour around the place we all live in.

It a long running and check and carrying stuff to ensure everything working normal. 

There was a young man (I named it as "A"), I know of, he looks very alike the I know in real world, but the personality is the exact opposite. Laugh and easygoing person. He's the only male in the place. He's somewhat the new apprentice the sisters took in recently but punished for being careless.

It's passed 8pm, the 2storey condo bathhouse will be closed. I just got out from Bath and met A. He seemed to miss his bathing hour, and the our dorm has lights off rule. So I told him to leave his window unlock, so he could sneak in his room after bathed.

I returned to the women bathhouse on the lower floor to ask a sister in tub about closing time. I stepped out the bathhouse door to find a large open container in near the exit. The container is full of young monitor lizards feeding on fish. Some lizards climbed hand holder fence. One was so enjoyed devouring a medium size fish, one leg loses balance, it slipped and fell from height, followed by another. This is a high condo.

This scene made A laugh uncontrollable. I don't know what's so funny of. But that laugh, makes him loses focus, he slipped before he could reach his window room.

That laugh turned into a panic, terrified scream. He let out  HAaaHaaAHaaa---AAAAAH---HEEEL--P---M

 PURRAKKK!

The sound is so surreal. My sight is blocked by the high wall, I didn't see his fall. I went over to a lower wall and look down. There's 4-5 by-passers at the scene. The body was crumpled. One person in black look like security was scooping the body pieces into a garbage bag. The spine is milky and so clean that I can spot from high floor.

= present =

I woke up.

Week 1 After Vaccine.

I have drowsiness whenever I scroll in screen. That drowsiness actually took me another 3 days to go away. I lost appetite, but craving for some small bites, and in few days, sour or sweet.

Week 2

It's durian season, I have the thirsty for the spiky fruit. It's damn expensive for RM25 per Kilo. So I only bought one for dinner. Haven't been eaten durian for quite a year, it wasn't enough yet made me drowsy. The next 2 days, I bought two for a dinner feast, but doesn't taste as chunky as the 1st day I bought.

Work has been a long delay, and suddenly putting back in front of me would really craze me out. I have to deal with amendments on the weekends.

 

Week 3

12 July 2021, Monday

Few colleagues contacted me in short hours, new tasks has already summing up before noon. With one urgent work been on hold since last month, and was told to touch up further again.. this work is required for the next task to complete as well. I spent entire evening to do one work.. while the main still untouched.

Scraping up my off hour to do the touch up.. and still feel the executing sucks bad, unpresentable enough to make me doubt about my role.. I skipped exercise, skipped dinner.. to continue this work.. and midnight just passed.. I haven't complete yet..

Spicy Food

Seeing people suffers from eating very spicy food reminds me of a company I worked in KL.

I remembered that year came a new Korean Spicy Instant Noodle that became a popular food challenge for most Youtubers and often see them weep off tears, blowing nose and burnt red mouth after eating it.

This company I used to work in, has a toxic boss. I never felt so hesitant and pressured to celebrate my birthday if they were to organize one, and I prayed hard that I leave this company before my birth month comes.. 

On birthday celebration, office staff will gather at the meeting room, so as the birthday staff. The boss would present the entire time, and no matter how energetic I try to make the atmosphere happy for everyone in the room, didn't worked., because of this management.

All birthday month staff are "invited" to join the meeting room, some was trying to avoid showing up in this little gathering which it's nothing fun being centered clowns, but forced to because the celebration wouldn't start if one tries to absent, further delay would only make more hardship and embarrassment later in the gathering. The boss will question them for being late.

Birthday month staff were told to select an opposite gender to lead singing birthday song while others either quietly watch or join. There's another so-called "tradition" in their celebration, if there's 3 candles on the cake, 3 of the birthday staff who are selected/volunteered to take out the hot candle with their teeth, and to make the challenge harder, the boss would order anyone to press the candles deeper into the cake before the "tradition" begins or would not proceed sharing cakes. Some colleagues weren't good bond with that person would tend to do the press. The deeper they press, the more other watches and laugh things on. These kind of act

Sometimes, celebration ends with something extra and unrelated matter.. A head staff was told to present at the birthday gathering, for the purpose to be questioned for a complaint for poor work performance. He was punished to finish a bowl of very spicy Korean instant noodle in front of everyone in the meeting room, the coke I prepared was taken by the lady boss who sipped and enjoyed watching the "show". The gathering ends only when he finished his food.

In my teenage life, putting cake cream on your birthday classmates is fun and enjoying. Showering birthday friends is sometimes you can encounter in school among classmates, often happened to males especially they are close enough, I did see female get showered from classmates' water bottle. You just see through the uniforms, but not like this... It was the most awkward celebration negativities.
