Scars of Tomorrow: Tweety Bird's Tale

Today I'm gonna talk about a classmate of mine. We called her Tweety *maybe it's just me* because according to my research, *ehem* they called her that because she reminded them of the famous cartoon character Tweety bird. *you know, that little yellow cutesy bird that ALWAYS have that prankster cat Sylvester on her tail* Well, this girl got a particular trait that we usually see from her speech pattern. Whenever she does her presentation* especially in a group* she would usually add the world "lah" or "ah" at the end of her sentences. Kinda like a new speech pattern *or something*. Based on my observation *ehem fancy word right there* Tweety is one of the students in the class that would ALWAYS be in class, no matter what time it is. But these couple of days, Tweety was absent from almost all of the classes, I heard *from someone* she had a fever( I couldn't remember who said that). Then, one day she'd just reappeared during my group discussion with Yangus,Sarasvati, Lynette and Rose. I'd noticed that her face were kinda pale *in comparison with her original skin tone, there wasn't much difference since she's a fair lady (what the hell am I saying??)*  But, yeah she does look paler than usual (what the fuuuuuu am I trying to say???). Then, last night I had the opportunity to IM with her. So we talked a bit, then I asked her " Is your fever already subsided?" and she asked me back " Who said anything about me having a fever?" I was like:



*Owh..*

Then she said to me "Don't be shocked okay? I had an operation. There was some kinda tumor inside my tummy and they had to take it out. A couple of days before that, I cried like hell.."

I had no idea you were in that kind of situation...

That explains her absence, So I was like "Owhhhhh, no wonder you couldn't come to the class. You should rest properly then." And she said, " I've got permission for absence until 5 Jan, hihihi" and I said " Good, you seemed happy eh?" and she replied " More like bored, I have nothing to do. That's why I came to class that day. But after the class, my cut got opened. Maybe because I moved to much in one day..The doctor didn't close the cut, since they wanted the cells to grow by itself" Then I told her about making a blog, that's one way to spend some time and at the same time train your English. Then she said "Hmm, maybe I do it next time." It was midnight and Tweety excuse herself since she wanted to sleep already, so I bid her farewell. I hope she'll be okay the next time I see her.
