On Being Accident-Prone.
Day 3: 18.02.09
I’m currently re-watching the Gilmore Girls series all over again 
one of my favourite TV series of all time, sigh!
I’ve completed watching all 7 seasons before, and even now when I’m starting from Season 1 all over again, it’s good to know that it hasn’t lost its charm.
I don’t know what it is exactly, but everytime I watch it I feel so….. happy. 
Like, breathe-a-long-happy-sigh-grinning-from-ear-to-ear kind of happy, as the credits roll at the end.
Maybe it’s the mixture of the best friend mother-daughter relationship between Lorelai and Rory, the quick-thinking fast-talking funny comebacks and literary references that is this show’s entire dialogue, the Stars Hollow small town charm with its many quirky characters, the cute cute boys that floats in and out of the girls’ lives
Currently at Season 2 now, and so far there was a very young (and cute) Chad Michael Murray (of One Tree Hill), young Jared Padalecki (of Supernatural), young HOT Milo Ventimiglia (!!!
) (Peter Petrelli of Heroes),
and i distinctly remember Adam Brody (Seth Cohen of The O.C.) coming in later in the series, and finally of course Logan
Jess (Milo Ventimiglia) and Logan being my 2 favourite boys dating Rory Gilmore, sorry la long time boyfriend Dean (Jared Padalecki) ok ok only heh.
*happy sigh, happy grin*
Day 4: 19.02.09
On a more serious note.
I had hot boiling water spilled all over my body on Thursday.
If I had to recall the gory details of that night, I distinctly remember my horrible piercing scream in pain echoing off the staircase walls. I stood there in complete shock for a few seconds, boiling water flowed down my body and trickled onto my legs. I fought back the tears welling up in my eyes from the excruciating burning pain.
Then my instincts (finally) kicked in, and I rushed into the shower took off all my clothes and stood there under cold running water to sooth the burnt skin. I sniffed hard at the tears so I wouldn’t cry, crying isn’t going to help. I objectively thought of how to deal with this. Aloe vera gel soon came to mind.
I stepped out of the shower 15 minutes later, toweled off and gently slathered aloe vera gel all over the burnt areas, while Googling on my laptop on How to deal with boiling water spilled onto body. The results seemed similar to what I have done.
Immediately, there was a knock on my bedroom door. My dad came in and inspected the damage. After a short conversation of what happened, he left and drove out to find a night pharmacy.
SisterDebbie then peeked in,
“Che, are you okay?”
“Not really, it still burns. But I’ll be fine I hope.”
“I Googled up on What to do when boiling water is spilled onto your body. Jump in the shower, and apply cold cream later!”
“Hahaha aww. Yes I did that, but I used aloe vera gel instead. Hope it works.”
“Wah your scream sent the whole house into a frenzy, che. I quickly went and Google, Papa just drove out to find a pharmacy open at night, and Mummy is cleaning up the spilled boiling water.”
Haha. Yeah. I am known for my ability to scream bloody murder sending everyone into a blind panic.
And here are more details as to how it happened.
Simply put, I was watching Gilmore Girls in my room upstairs, and I got hungry.
Cooked myself some Maggi Mee and brought it upstairs to my room, when I tripped on the stairs and fell, spilling boiling hot Maggi Mee soup all over my body -_- champion woman i am.
You would think that after years and years of carrying food upstairs to the computer table, or to my room, I would’ve mastered the art of carrying bowls of food while walking at a decent pace; sometimes even multiple bowls/plates at a time, with a small bowl of chopped chillies/condiments, and a cup of water dangling from my index finger.
Either that or I was set on autopilot already la. -_-
Debbie said to me, “Hahaha why you and your boyfriend so accident-prone wan.”
-_- “Dunno. Birds of a feather flock together, I guess.”
(p/s: The good news is, my skin was much redder half an hour before this picture was taken. Hurray for self-sufficiency, and of course, lots and lots of aloe vera gel)
