Blood, rivers, and cookies. Posted at 8:56 AM 0 comments (+)  I just realized how misleading the title is. But no matter, it is what it is.

So this has been a pretty busy week for me. Apart from training, I acompanied my best friend to NUH. No, it's nothing serious. There were just some problems with her hormones. And, maybe it's because I haven't been to a hospital for a long time, but hospitals don't look the way I expect them too anymore. I was expected plain gray walls and ugly corridors like the ones you see in Channel 8's 9pm dramas. But no, I thought I walked into a 5-star hotel.



It turns out that Reichin had to draw blood for tests. And it's no secret that I'm not good with needles. My hands were literally shaking while I was trying to get a few good shots.
Hallelujah to anti-movement.





 So here's the disgusting part:


Look at this girl - so proud of her tube of blood.

And over the weekend, I had lunch with my grandparents at Clarke Quay. Ate at my favorite Bak Kut Teh stall of all time. Then we went to the riverside to look at the scenery.
I know right? Tourist-much.

  After a while, we got bored just looking at the river. So my grand dad and sister decided to get some dessert.



 After that lovely afternoon with my family, I met up with Reichin to get some Chinese New Year clothes. And had dinner at one of our favorite places to nom.





 

 
Yes, I baked. Oatmeal cookies!

The first batch, however, got a little charred..


 
And, I painted my nails again.. I swear I should stop.
These nails were inspired by @noemihk on instagram. Her nails are awesome.
