Woke up at 4am last night. Got some red rash on my arm, not sure if it is insect bites or food allergy (a term they use very often in western country), in Asia, we just eat everyhting...... yes i guess people eat most of the animal with back born facing the sky. And lots of people like to ''EAT SNAKE''.
So I lie on my bed at 4am and decide that I will ''EAT SNAKE"" today or 吃蛇. That means, I called the office at 9am, and tell them I am not feeling well, and won't be in today (it is my first sicky in 2008...so not that bad, and I do have valid reason...)
吃(eat) 蛇(snake): Not sure if people use the term in KL, but it is widely used in Singapore and Johor. I tried to search on internet to find out the ''origin'' of the term, but no luck. But that is what we use to decribe someone who fake sick, or not doing work during working hour.
Went to the clinic around the corner. As I am not registered with them, they won't let me see the doctor. I need to complete a form, go back this afternoon with my urine sample to do a health check, then they can schedule an appointment for me. what a system. I prefer the Malaysia/Singapore style, just pay and see the doctors or use your company panel doctors.
So I have collected some unrine sample (I did make an effort to drink lots of water so it looked ok)....
Ok, will continue enjoy my Eating Snake day....
