I Wanna Get Well Soon...

It sucks to be sick… I’m so sick of being sick… or rather, I’m so sick and tired from all the coughing…

* Cough until I feel so out of breath…
* Cough until my whole body seems to be aching and I had to squirm in bed…
* Cough until I just feel like detaching my throat from my body so I won’t have to cough anymore…

It sucks not to be able to talk… Each time I wanna speak, the air I breathe in irritates my throat and I start coughing non-stop… Or I can speak only 1-2 words and suddenly, no more voice and start coughing non-stop…

* Met my fren for a quick dinner on Friday and she was telling me about some stuff, which I wanna offer her my opinions… but I cant cos I was coughing non-stop…
* Wanna go out to shop for my black heels and catch a movie over the weekend.. but I can’t cos I was coughing non-stop…
* Wanna go give tuition over the weekend but I can’t cos I was coughing non-stop…

Urgh...

But, the bright side of my cough is I feel soooo pampered by everyone… My dad, mum, aunties, uncles, cousins… everyone came to tell me their secret remedy for coughs… Though I din try their remedies, it feels good to noe everyone cares… Yes, now the whole world noes I am coughing… At home, I dun even have to lift a finger and food, drinks, medicine are served to me… by my mum dearest of cos… hahah…

But still, I wanna get well… Do you ever notice that when you are sick, you always have a super overwhelmingly strong craving for food that you are not supposed to eat? It doesn’t help when pple around you are eating those food right in front of you… I wanna eat my KFC, I wanna eat my sardines puff, I wanna eat chips… …

Pray I get well soon…

The Battle with the Flu Bug - It's Not Good to be on the Losing Side...

It all started innocently with my throat being a bit itchy… Immediately pop in a lozenges and went to zzz, and lo and behold, I was well the next day…

The cycle repeated twice before my body finally decided to succumb to the flu bug. I went to work and blew my nose, sneezed and coughed the whole day. Boss asked me to go home if I really felt unwell, but I told her I could manage and refused to budge.

Went to see a doc in the evening and he told me I was running a slight fever. Gave me MC for the next day. But I felt so much better when I woke up the next day, so I decided to ignore the MC and went to work… Even went for some site recce with my colleagues…

And went out again with frens on Sat...

Then now, my sore throat and blocked nose changed into… a horrible cough… Was coughing so badly that I think if I cough any harder, I can cough my lungs out. Boss asked me to go home again. This time, I obliged. Sigh… Wonder when the cough will stop… My dad saw me come home so early, and …

Dad: Oh! So you really came back! You were coughing so badly this morning when you were preparing to go for work, I thought you wouldn’t be going… go one big round, still got to come back rest… silly gal…

Me: Zzzz….

Dad: Serves you right… finally sick! Go out everyday and play until wee hours then come back… Go some more lor.. go to more pub and drink and party la…

Me: Double zzzz….

Dad: If your frens call you to go out again, tell them I go on your behalf la!

Me: OK! Zzzz…

So frens, dun be surprised next time my dad tags along!! Hahaha…

Happy Tuition Teachers' Day!!

Ok, almost two weeks late.. but nevertheless, my tuition gal did surprise me with this little hand-made card... not exactly a very pretty card but touched my heart nonetheless! It's really very sweet of her!

And no, I am thankful I dun tutor her in English...where got such a word called "brattiest"?! (oh, now you know why i dun teach her English.. cos I am always using Singlish... hehe... )

Anyway, I know she is reading this blog.. so gal, you better pull up your socks, shorts, blouse, and grit your teeth for the final battle. Three more weeks to go and you can play all you want to!

Good Luck!
