Dragged my ass down to see a TCM @ Golden Mile area this evening as 3D Goddess said that my dark eye rings might be caused by an internal organ or something in my body not functioning well, which in turn leads to my dark eye rings not getting any better regardless of me applying 2 gallons of eye cream day and night. This TCM was reccommended by Tiffy who said that her collegue went down to see him about her dark rings and after a while, its gone! So with this encouragement in mind, i went down to see him today. And dragged 3D Goddess along as well to be my Chinese - English translator. In case i translate what the uncle say wrongly..... like the liver, i think he is talking about my lungs. or i think that the stomach is the heart or something like that.

We got there at 730pm only to realise that the uncle will only be back at 8pm. So we went to the big food centre nearby and had nice prawn mee for our dinner. While i was busy stuffing myself with the nice prawn mee, Mr Sarcastic called me to say that Gaz and him will be coming down to meet us.

"Eh....... We will be coming down now to eat..... you better stay and accompany us while we eat ah! I dun care!!"

On the way back to the TCM, i saw this cat with lots of black, brown and god knows what other colour patches on its body. I call it the "dirty cat" look. So i told 3D Goddess,

"Oh, so cute the cat..... It looks very dirty... and i call it the dirty cat type. But i like this type of cats, because i think they have character!"

"Oh, like that, if we don't bathe, we also will have character, right??"


Therefore, Quote of the day:

If we don't bathe, we will have character. ~ 3D Goddess

Anyway, back to the TCM. Uncle says that my qi is no good and my liver indeed isnt functioning well because of that. And because of that, i cannot sleep well or fall asleep at night. Hence my dark eye circles......... So he prescribed some stuff for me and i have to boil them tomorrow! And since 3D Goddess was there to help me with any translation, i cajoled her to have a consultation as well!

While waiting for the even older uncle to prepare all the herbs onto the fluroescent pink paper wrap, we both watched him intently as he poured all the strange looking stuff onto it. One of them looked like a part of plaster board, while the dang gui looked like a super flattened sotong. And this particular flowers looked quite furry for some reason. I kept telling her that i will be super traumatised if they put a dried seahorse into my concoction or something.

Anyway, by the time we were done, Mr Sarcastic and Gaz were also done eating their TuLang or something like that. The sheep's bone marrow or something. They were posing along these planters while Gaz was smoking and from far away i did not recognise them because i thought they looked too poser to be my friends. I proudly announced to Mr Sarcastic that he will be the resident monitor lizard in the family of tree (Ah Zai), squirrels (Shush and me) and flowers (Don & 3D Goddess). He didnt seem too pleased with the en-knightment of that title, but looked happier when i told him that they have these "Careful.... Monitor lizard crossing" signs in Sentosa. He said that he didnt know he was so respected there.

And...... he very cleverily squished my kaya toast bread till it was out of shape when i asked him to pass me something in a plastic bag on my table. (i was downstairs in a cab in the morning. ) We have also concluded that he is quite a himbo. A true himbo while 3D Goddess and i are only pretend bimbos. Wuhahahhaa......
