YowCH hit his head

YowCH had a bad dream on 9 Oct 2013, and at 4:30am, rolled off the bed and fell on the ground. Unfortunately, the dumbbells were right at the bed-side and his head hit the metal in the fall, resulting in a deep gash on the right eye-brow. After a stunned 15 mins and applied pressure to stop the bleeding, he went back to sleep. Next morning, with a plaster stuck, he sent the children to school, Grace to work, sat in a meeting at work, and attended the SITCE conference in Suntec City. By the time he saw the doctor at about 2:45pm, the wound has clotted and closed up, so no stitches needed.

Today, 3 days later, the swelling has reduced and the bruise is improving.

Thank God that the damage was not serious and missed the eye. Lesson learned: keep the area around the bed free of any hard objects.

The audience was mostly HDB’s project staff, contractors and consultants.

We met up with YowCH’s sister’s family for lunch at Square2, where we ate at Bread Bar (油炸鬼, yau-jar-guai, officially in Mandarin, you-tiao, 油条). There is a page in Wikipedia for this simple food.

The meal included curry chicken, bak-kut-teh, assam chicken, tau-fu-fa, kekou mian, and of course plenty of yau-jar-guai.
