CT Scan !!!!

argh !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hate hospital !!!

hatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehate

I went to there to have my CT scan today,

and the nurses keep point me here point me there,

give them make till I so pening T.T



I went to the imaging department,

and they pointed me to the CT scan at the emergency department,

then i went there and a notice was pasted on the door saying the room is under renovation =.=

So i asked the nurses in a wad 2 rooms beside,

and they pointed me to the same damn room again

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

The doors were locked up summore =.=

They want me to break into the room ke?
(I'm not Michael Scofield la...)



Then my dad came and asked another nurse with higher post,

finally she brought me to the right place T.T

and so i waited for my turn.

Then a nurse came out and asked me whole bunch of questions.

She went back in talk talk talk then came out ask me again =.=

Then again she went back in the room talk talk talk and finally asked me to go into the room.

But,

they told me,

I couldn't do the CT scan today cause I had asthma b4 when I was young.

They have to inject a contrast into my bloodstream and it contains high concentration of iodine.

It might cause allergic reaction like flush, itchiness, etc..

So i should have taken steroid beforehand to prevent the allergic.

T.T

and now,

I have to take 20 pills !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



O M F G


T.T


I hate taking pills !!!!!!!!

I cant swallow them T.T T.T T.T T.T T.T T.T T.T

and i have to take 10 pills at one time T.T

wtf..

you kill me bah T.T






That isn't all.

The next time i go for the stupid CT scan,

i have to be prepared to be injected with the contrast (aka dye aka colouring) into my bloodstream T.T

T.T T.T T.T T.T T.T T.T T.T T.T T.T T.T

Pain pain pain pain pain pain pain T.T

It's my antibiotics shots nightmare all over again T.T

No matter how many millions times i had this kind of injections b4, I'm still fuck scared of it T.T

I've done similar MRA scan last year.

When they inject the contrast, I had to lay very very still and not move even a tiny bit T.T

It's nothing like those injections we have usually.

It's like having icy cold fluid injected directly into your BLOODSTREAM.

Last time before I did the MRA, i was so scared and cold that i vomited and almost fainted T.T

and today i met the nurse who worked at the MRI department when i went there last year.

She recognised me LOL.

Ah well, i guess i'm easy to recognise,

and i did went to have MRI twice and vomited at the sink in the room.

LOL

Sigh

I have 2 damn weeks to prepare for it.

T.T

God bless me

In loving memory of little Teddy..

Teddy,


we'll miss you

and

we'll love you always.

Iron Man

I've watched the movie - "Iron Man" which has been quite the talk lately.

The main character - the billionaire genius Tony Stark is played by the very sexy Robert Downey Jr.
*start screaming*
*aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!*
(I missed the days of him as Larry in Ally McBeal !!!!!)

Ah well, I'm not here to talk about the movie (it's great btw, you should watch it).
I want to talk about the s-u-b-t-i-t-l-e-s.

As we all know, all the movies are provided with Malay and Mandarin subtitles.
They translate everything from the movie title till the end of the show (exclude the casts and credits of course).

So, we were eating the popcorns waiting for the movie to start.





Bla bla bla bla bla...

Finally.

The title "Iron Man" came out
(after the advertisements and the movie trailers and the beginning of Iron Man).
The words "Iron Man" are big and displayed in the middle of the screen.
Then I look down at the subtitle.


...


...


...


"坚强的男人"







What the hell??

Iron Man = 坚强的男人 ?????

Since when the word "Iron" = "坚强" ??????
So if i want to describe a person as very 坚强,
i should call him/her very 'iron' ????

This is where direct translation comes in useful.
They could have just translate "Iron Man"
as "钢铁人" or "铁人"
which the meaning is so much better and accurate than
"坚强的男人" (and so much shorter).


This reminds me of a movie i watched few years ago.


"The Day After Tomorrow"

Guess what's the malay title for it???









Bingo !!
*applause*



" L U S A "

4 words become 1 word.

Nice.
You have to give them credit for making the title so 'simple'.

Okay, back to Iron Man.

Behind every successful man, there's always a great woman behind him.
In his case, it's the famous Miss Pepper Potts,
which is played by the beautiful Golden Globe and Academy Award-winning actress, Gywneth Paltrow
(wife of Chris Martin, the lead singer of the British rock band, Coldplay).


Again, guess what's her name in Mandarin (in the movie Iron Man)??

"胡椒"




Ya, i know pepper means 胡椒.
But, SERIOUSLY,
do you call a person as "胡椒" ???


"Pepper Potts"
So, i should call her "胡椒 盆s" ????





You tell me.




This leads me to another famous singer in the music industry.

Gwen Stefani.
She's a very very well-known figure, a solo artist and the vocalist of No Doubt.
You can always see her name appearing in newspaper and magazines.

Mandarin newspaper translate everything to mandarin, including titles and names.


So,




Gwen Stefani.
"关 史蒂芬妮"



Gwen = 关
关 = close


So, if you ever name your daughter as 'Gwen',
you can put her mandarin name as "关 ".

E.g. : Gwen Lee ---- 李关 (nice, simple, easy to write and remember)
Thank GOD my parents NEVER named me as 'Gwen'



When you have a daughter which her name is "Gwen",
you can name your other son as "Kyle".



Cause if "Gwen" = "关",
so "Kyle" should be "开 "



Gwen and Kyle, 关 and 开.
Very very very nice combination.
