Diabetes emoticon

Hello my dusty blog and readers! *pointing fingers

I have already started using Medtronic Insulin Pump since Dec 2014. I have been sharing my feelings and pictures on Instagram @sugarsanity (that's why I did not update my blog for such a long time :p )

Back to the story. 

Describe diabetes with one emoticon. Hmmm I probably need to squeeze my face to show you that emoticon. 

Having diabetes is not something to celebrate. Is not something to be proud of. And it's mostly not something happy or positive. 

But, I guess for the coming 8 years of having diabetes. 

I do not mourn for diabetes anymore (but it is still not something to celebrate, I mean I don't celebrate it everyday literally).

I am not proud of getting this diagnosis (Sharing sessions on how I control how I live with diabetes...is consider as something to be proud of? Sharing is not about proud, it's about the inner pleasantness, inner satisfaction and the warmth).

Well, it's not something very negative now. I adapted well to its routine (maybe I should be happy about this).

Alright, the thing is, people ask questions that I am not too sure how to feel when I want to answer them. 

Whether I should feel happy, sad, angry or eye rolls while answering.

Example like what happened today,

She read my doctor's letter and asked: You have diabetes?! / You ada diabetes ke?! / 你有糖尿病啊？！(with disbelief eyes as if I have done something really bad)

And she asked after reading the doctor's letter. She asked after knowing the reality.

So...

What is the suitable emoticon or expression to show, when I want to affirm people: 

YEAH BUDDY! YOU'RE RIGHT! I HAVE TYPE 1 DIABETES *grinning with a peace sign

or OMG YOU'RE RIGHT, I HAVE DIABETES *covering mouth, blinking, looking upwards, preparing tears

or CORRECT LA! IT'S ME WHO HAVE T1D LA *eye rolls

I was really not in the mood today. I just answered her emotionless-ly: YES (full stop).
And she continued asking: Really? Omg Really?! Ya ke? 真的啊？

I was so tempted to answer: No lah, where got. / Ah, tak de la. / 假的。
In the end, I didn't answer her. I just nodded and walked away.

Gosh I was very rude right? On the way back, I was like: Maybe I should smile when I say that. But, smiling because I have diabetes at this age? (Will she be thinking I am crazy?)

Alright guys, I have Type 1 Diabetes (yes the young one, though I was diagnosed at 17. But FYI T1D can be diagnosed at any ages) and...I am really cool about it (you may ask me any questions about T1D, but probably can stop asking if I really have diabetes again and again after knowing the real)

Well, you can ask HOW? WHY? WHEN? WHERE? Not only just...really? really? really?!

So, describe diabetes with one emoticon. 

Maybe this  (yes, REALLY) haha
