i blacked out in the crowded mrt train. but lucky, i managed to grasp hold to that teeny weeny bit of conscious and recovered shortly. it happened shortly after the train left the commonwealth station. i was counting to myself, 1, 2, 3 and 4th stop is outram where i alighted. then i felt my shortness of breath. couldnt breathe properly. then i saw patches of orange color in my vision. i started to get worry. i tried to breathe in deeply.. the patches of light orange color soon became bright orange.. and i grabbed hold to the metal pole (near the glass panel de) real tightly.. i tried to shake it off.. i couldnt.. and i felt myself going weak.. i struggled to stand.. and i breathe real deeply.. then i felt my knee weakening and my vision going total darkness.. and someone said: Miss, are you okay? and literally pulled me to his seat (which is by the glass panel).. i still couldnt see a thing.. i tot of the fisherman sweets in my bag.. with my eyes wide open (or was it closed?) but cant see a thing at all.. i groped around in my bag for the sweets.. couldnt find it.. i forced my eyes to see.. just willed it to see.. slowly i can see abit..and found my sweets.. and popped it into my mouth.. keep trying to shake the blackness that enveloped me.. and i finally did.. i was shocked by what happened.. it happened so fast.. and thank god for the guy who saw me and gave up his seat.. else i tik i wun recover so fast. i was so shocked by what happened.. started to tear abit.. then i keep dabbing my tears.. my forehead gisted with sweat -- also dunno y. sigh, then i reached outram.. i stood up and thank the guy and tried to return him his seat. he din want it, said its ok since he's getting off soon.. asked if im alright. i told him i nearly blacked out - trust me to say something so straight rite? sighz.
then i got off the train..
walked in shocked.. knees and hands still feeling real weak.. but managed to sms sam (cos was sms-ing chat wif her) & oldie. then another guy from the train (he got up from cck also).. asked if im okay.. tik he witnessed the whole saga.. and said i looked very pale & shld get some rest before continuing my journey.. i told him im late for work.. he said he is too.. and ask me to sms my boss to inform my boss wat happened.. i thank him.. and we went our separate ways..
