Second OGTT test

Today I went for my second arranged OGTT test in the hospital. I woke up at 6:20 this morning and ready to go at 7:15, we got there at the hospital at about 10 minutes to 8. There were already 2 women arrived before me. I took the no. 3 badge which means I'll be the third one to get jab.

The nurse arrived at 8:05, it's the same one as last time, I know she'll do a good job cos last time it didn't hurt as much:). By 8:15, I've already got my jab. She told me that since it's my second time for the test, she'll take one more tube for testing the blood color (I don't know they need to test my blood color, or maybe there is another term for that which I don't know...so you might not know what I mean), I thought I'll have to be jab twice in one go...but just one jab and she changed two tubes *phew* :). After that I grabbed my sugar drink which I longed for since last night! This time the drink didn't taste as nice, it's way too sweat that it actually tasted bitter :/ this time it took me 20 minutes to drink it all... Last time I was consciously drinking it slow and it took me 10 minutes...ah well... afterwards I feel so full but I hoped I won't throw up cos the nurse kept telling us to take our time so that we won't throw up (can't even spit) or else we'll have to go back and do the test again the next day. Won't want that...The reason why we can't even spit and if we do, we have to let the nurse knows. She said because we don't know how much sugar content is there in the spit, so that might affect the test result. Hence will have to redo everything again.

I waited in the room for 2 hours, today I couldn't help but fell asleep for about 15 minutes...other women were wearing cardigan cos it's cold but I didn't find it cold at all, was quite nice actually...woke up at around 9:30, I read some more newspaper and at 10am, I went down and pay the fee and came back up with the receipt because I'll need to give that receipt to the nurse before she'll do my second jab. So far so good, I didn't burp, or spit, or feel sick or throw up. Nurse called my name at 10:35 and after that I went out and met hubby and went for my well-deserved breakfast at burger king. Got my usual croissant-wich meal breakfast with a cup of tea! ahhhhhhh :D

We were supposed to hang out for a bit after the hospital visit, but since hubby's computer was acting up and he couldn't post online, so we have to come home. I forgot to take my morning pill with me anyway, so we could do with going home first.

I am at home now with a freshly made bottle of fruit juice (this time I have grapes, dragon fruit and orange with lots of ice), niceeeeee and cooooool :)

Last night wasn't so good though. I left school at around 6:20 because I was busy preparing lesson plan for today so that someone can substitute my lessons. It's always hard at the beginning of the term, never know what to do with the kids! Anyway I finished that and prepared all the materials for today AND also think about what to do with them upon my return on Friday cos I won't time to do it on Friday morning...so hope everything's fine...Then we'll have our weekend break!! Wanted that more than anything. A full day in school proves to be very tiring for me...after lunchtime, I am technically dragging myself through the day...When the kids are dismissed, I could just fall asleep. That's why yesterday I nearly fell asleep preparing the lesson plan, but I couldn't sleep until I finish those....you can imagine...

Didn't cook last night when I got home, I could have, but I guess I was too tired and can't be bothered, so we went out for dinner. Got home at around 8:45, put babyplus on for Xiaobao. I fell asleep before babyplus finished. The next time I woke it was already 3am!!! *doh!* I missed my last time to drink water *argh*!!! Again this morning I soooooo want to drink the water in my toothbrush jar!

Xiaobao is now listening to the YBCR CD, he still likes it. Pity that I can't do it everyday with him, especially if I come home late, after preparing dinner, it'll be time to put babyplus on and before that finishes, I would have fell asleep already!

Let's hope tomorrow will go faster in school...

Oh yesterday one of my students last year got me a souvenir from Taiwan, very nice of him. It's perfumed necklace :)
