I time-travelled.

I went back 50 years ago..
With my mother to have acupuncture.
I wanted to try out..


I told my mum she looks like sleeping beauty.
My mother burst out laughing and said,
"So old already, how to be beauty..
more like
sleeping old granny."

I think we're not supposed to make too much noise there..
So i tried my super best to control my laughter..
But my mother saw how hard i tried to control it..

She laughed, "The harder you try and control your laughter.. the more you want to laugh."

Gosh. I seriously burst out laughing and my mother too..

We are two noisy patients.

So i said, "Shhhhhhhhhh...."
And we kept quiet..
Haha.

Then the 'doc' used this electric stuff.
My mum did it on her hand.
Poor thing.. Must be all the housework.

I did it for my knees and leg..Too much running when i was a kid i guess.

The feeling of the needle going through your flesh is almost painless. But the adding of electricity is super numbing.

I recalled the times when i had to go through General anaesthesia for my operations..
My head felt so numb like hell for a few seconds before i knock out.

Now worse.. I have to feel this aching pain until the needle is taken out.
Just look at my pathetic face with the pain.

When i go out..

It was raining cats and dogs.

I was drenched even under the umbrella.

People said if your bones/joints ache, shouldn't get cold and wet rite?

So much of having my flesh poked with electric needles.
All effort gone.
Thank you very much.
