Lack of sleep after spending the night at the usual place. Had to do unpacking over at PA@Lavender the following day, PLUS Junhong was out of camp, so we naturally met up like, as usual, and spent the night over at his house. It's not exactly far, but it's not super duper near too. I'm guessing it's a walk between 15-20minutes from his house to PA@Lavender..
Had 2 rounds of mahjong, in which I don't know why, but I was rather lucky. Won only 5 times in one round, and another 5 times in the second round. But the 5 times, 4 of them were 4tai, and that earned me a handsome bit of money. Second round almost like that too.. Except that we didn't complete the round, because my gastric pain was throwing a rather bad tantrum. :\ I seem to have plenty of ailments :| the eye, the gastric, the foot, the constant headache, palpitations, and plenty of mini accidents today while unpacking.
So in the end, I won around 20 bucks. 0_o For 10 20 cents, that's quite a fair bit of money!
Unfortunately, that 20 bucks weren't sufficient to cover lunch, appointment, dinner money.
Went down to SNEC again for a follow up appointment after I couldn't stand the stinging in my eyes any longer. Went down rather early and wasted the most of my time waiting around for my consultation. Reached at 2 plus, consultation was at 4 plus, and I finally left the place at 5 plus after waiting for the pharmacy to dispense my ointment as well. ...
Doctor said my lower eyelashes tend to point into the eyeball instead of outwards, causing some dry spots which causes irritation.. And hence the stinging of the eye. I got a prescription for the ointment to soothe my eyes and see if the condition will persist, because apparently the other option is eyelid surgery, to correct the eyelashes such that they are not pointing inwards..
It could very well be the reason why I like to rub my eyes soooooooooooooo much.
Didn't really tell anyone about the appointment (parents included), because I didn't know what would come out of the visit, and 80 bucks. Anyways, I'm just relieved that I'm not going blind yet or anything, hahahas.
Googled abit for the condition, and I think I found something that kind of fits the descripton.
Ikea time again tomorrow! Unpacking ended relatively early today, so we were thinking of heading down to Ikea for some zuo bo time, but apparently I needed to be at home for dinner (dad wasn't home), hence it was decided that we'll go to Ikea tomorrow for lunch!! Anytime, anyday. :D
Sooooo sleepy!

Shrugs.The two most significant eyelash abnormalities are called entropion and ectropion. Entropion is a turning in, or inversion, of the eyelashes, in which the lashes rub against the eyeball. Ectropion is an outward turning of the eyelashes in which the eyelid and lashes hang down abnormally.
An inward-turning eyelid causes irritation as the lashes rub against the cornea and conjunctiva, which are the outermost parts of the eyeball. This constant scratching of the eye's surface causes redness and tearing and may set the stage for conjunctivitis, or inflammation of the membrane that covers the eyeball. Untreated conjunctivitis can, in turn, cause corneal ulceration and scarring. In the worst cases of persistent, untreated entropion, vision may be impaired due to permanent damage to the cornea.
