Im sharing this with everyone because im currently suffering from mild chest pain (which leads to coughs.)?cid=4-42-216

i remember my mom gave me this article about a Singaporean girl who died because of 8 straight hours on her laptop. She just graduated and had a career with lotsa $$$$. (i forgot, but it was sure damn high!). She got promoted, which means she’ll receive more $$ and of course, more WORK + STRESS!

She worked the whole day and night (on her laptop) non stop. She soon developed some symptoms which relates to her heart/breathing. She couldnt get a moment’s peace because clients whom she worked for were impatient, practically "yell" via 200+ emails that she has to reply and analyse each day.

The girl even collapse in her office lobby a few times. Her condition worsened as she had stated in her blogs (too long to type here.. hee). Her breathing got worse….

one day (or was it night… hmm.. xp) her family saw her gasping for air in her chair… she died as they approach the hospital.

She had a thrombosis (blood clot) in her thigh.. Her arteries constrict so no blood can flow through.. If im not mistaken, it was stated that the thrombosis occured in her thigh because she was idle (did not move) for a very long time (8 straight hours). So, the flow of blood is greatly interfered because she wasnt even moving a single muscle.. When there is no blood flow, blood cannot reach the heart and so result in death..

So guys…

Since it is ccurrently exam season, i assume that the tightening of my chest is due to stress, lack of relax/sleep and improper diet (i skip meals and drink only one glass of water). Plus, i studied for 4 to 6 hours non stop which adds to the problem that i have now.

I fear it’s blood clots.. a thorombosis.. but let’s not think too much, shall we?????!!! (sobs..)

Hope y’all maintain a healthy lifestyle during this stressful season.. Dont force yourself.. Relax often… Exercise more…

and good luck on ur EXAMS!

Think twice… No.. you gotta think MORE than twice this time.. Even your loved ones have claws. Wouldn’t you know it?

tsk tsk

Life ain’t easy.

On the surface, ppl might look calm and ready to help u in any way.. When they’re with u, you feel that "YES.. they’ve got my back".

On the contrary, when they’re hanging out with THEIR friends, they seem like total strangers to you.

It’s as if you don’t know who they are because they CHANGE their behaviour when they are with their group - in another world of theirs, in which you don’t belong to.

This makes me feel uneasy. Have they lost it? Why are they pretending to be another person when they are surrounded by their "people"?

Or maybe.. they’re not pretending at all..

Maybe that’s actually their true self.. and.. the behaviour which they ‘applied’ to me is just..

..AN ACT.. ?

Yes… ppl DO behave differently in different situations. Their suroundings affect the way they respond. It is not possible to have one identity.. like.. what do you mean by :

" I LIKE BEING MYSELF " ??

True.. we all have to accept and respect the way they are. We can’t do anything to change them.

However, when they ignore or neglect you, you’d be as confused as I am.
