It's itching like crazzzyyy!!!

i've been scratching my chao tar, coral-scraped knees so much they look like two black flea-bitten bald heads with lotsa dandruff.. EW. AB said if i scratched them some more, the toxin would spread to my brain. yarrite *snigger*

Googled the net for some treatment for coral wounds n this is wat i found:

Coral scrapes

Coral scrapes and cuts are common injuries that may occur when you walk on a beach or swim, snorkel, or dive in warm water. Coral polyps, the soft living material that covers the surface of coral, can be easily torn away from the rigid and abrasive structure underneath if you touch, bump, or fall on coral. A skin infection may develop when small pieces of coral, other debris, and bacteria get inside the wound. Scrapes and cuts from sharp-edged coral may take weeks or even months to heal.

!! :-O !! weeks?? corals are vicious animals.. argh.

On a less itchy note:

Why are pple overreacting on the news of civil servants' pay increment? All this talk about the government being too high-handed and not democratic enough and encouraging greed.. blah blah.. i dun really care. All i noe is that pm lee's donating the next 5 yrs of his pay increment to charity and i salute him! (Then again, detractors and mr b's fans would probably say it's for the tax savings yada yada.. ) I say he's a fair leader who cares about the country and more importantly, his geek looks rock!! Man if he were 30 years younger i'd go after him!! *smiles maniacally*

Peace and lots of snuggy sleep,
