Action Against Child Sexual Exploitation

Dear Friends,

I have just read and signed the online petition:

   "Action by Singaporeans and Singapore Residents to help stop the commercial
sexual exploitation of children overseas"

hosted on the web by PetitionOnline.com, the free online petition
service, at:

http://www.PetitionOnline.com/ChildSex/

I personally agree with what this petition says, and I think you might
agree, too.  If you can spare a moment, please take a look, and consider
signing yourself.

Best wishes,

Joanne Ng

Friday Night Dengue Fever

So it's a friday, late afternoon. Too warm for my liking.
I've been home the entire day, and the day before and the day before yesterday.
Nursing what seems to be a normal fever masquerading as Dengue (According to the first gp I went to)
Now there's a tiny punctured wound on my wrist (where my second opinion decided to draw blood)
I'm minding my own business, more interested in getting an mc for today to cover school and this second opinion starts yelling at me.

"Why can't you patients come earlier. Why do you wait til the last minute when your fever's high. You could have been dead by now if it weren't for me."

Funny...i managed to drag myself out of bed, put on some clothes, washed my face, brushed my teeth and headed downstairs where...I went to browse over dvds at a video store..from which i picked out "alot like love" and treated myself to a pack of m&ns and got my daily dose of cigs and finally headed to my "Second Opinion"

Oh Yes I would be dead by now if it weren't for you.
