Suppose to be teaching tuition now, but stay at home cos I was just discharge from hospital due to gastric. Waited for colleague to go for lunch but she was stuck at office, so waited until i got acute gastric pain.
Sian har, was sent to hospital by ambulance and made to drink some magnesium solution every 15 mins.
By 5pm, when doc came, i only threw up a small amount of the med. She thought it was that i had too much of med and discharged me. But then, on the way home, I threw up the rest of med in my dad's car, and threw up some more when i reach home.
Sian arh, empty stomach, only take med, still will throw up.
Sian arh, tomorrow still gotta work, cos no MC

Went to watch the movie Dirty Dancing 2: Havana night with my friend (also colleague at Lido at 9.30pm. Hmm...it didn't left us as inspired as the hip-hop movie: Honey, which we watched last month.
As for the movie synopsis, here's what I found from Yahoo!movies website:
Premise: Set in 1958 Havana, this is the story of a lonely 17-year-old American girl, Katie (Garai), who moves to Cuba in the days right before the Revolution with her parents, where she soon meets a charming and talented local dancer, Javier (Luna), who encourages her to discover her natural dancing abilities. Undoubtedly, it all leads to an exciting climax as Castro's forces take control and the Americans are forced to leave... will the girl choose to stay with her true love or go back to America with her mean, un-dirty-dancing parents? (Ward and Slattery play Katie's parents; Boorem plays Susie, Katie's little sister; Lavan plays Javier's revolutionary brother, Carlos; Jackson plays an American teenager who doesn't like Katie's new boyfriend)
Here's how Artisan Entertainment puts it:
"Havana: November, 1958. 18-year-old Katey Miller (Romola Garai) brings an innate curiosity and a smattering of Spanish to her new life in Cuba's lush capital, where her father has taken an executive posting at Chrysler. Schooled by her parents in the art of ballroom dancing, Katey is expected to join the smart set of American teenagers who are the Miller's neighbors at the exclusive Oceana Hotel. But Katey finds herself drawn instead to the proud, purposeful Javier (Diego Luna), a waiter who also happens to be [a] brilliant dancer. Determined to learn the slinky, spectacular moves that Javier seems to know in his bones, Katey persuades him to partner with her in a prestigious national dance competition at a grand local nightclub, The Palace. Meeting secretly in an out-of-the-way Havana nightclub, Katey and Javier practice their steps, their bodies aligning in a sensual harmony that mirrors the growing passion between them. As the night of the contest finally arrives, Katey and Javier are ready to take their place as a couple on the dance floor, unaware that the country club, and the streets of Havana itself, are about to erupt in revolutionary violence."
