Tuesday
Feeling: very very very very very sick sick sick sick sick
i'm feeling pretty sick. so i wont be blogging much. i spent most of my day sleeping...or struggling to get into sleep due to the burning sensation in my throat. i have fever, flu, cough and a very serious case of sore throat (i feel extreme pain even when swallowing a drop of water). now im feeling better...the sore throat's under control, the cough stopping le...the fever subciding and the flu kept in check.
last night was hell though. i woke up at 1am...burning throat. drank some water. got back to sleep again. i woke up again at 2, still the burning throat. drank more water and went to bed again. at 3, the burning sensation was intolerable! i had water...but that didnt do. i went to get some coke frm the fridge...why coke? u might ask. cos coke actually has a soothing effect on sore throat...its even more effective if u add salt...i drank one cup. but that didnt do the trick either. i struggled back to sleep...in the meanwhile, feeling both hot and cold. when i put blanket i feel hot. when i dont, i feel cold. so, to put or not to put? sigh...den my muscles and limbs like no strength likedat...fever was high...i felt so terrible i woke my mama...she laid me on my bed and used the tradditional method - using wet towels to lower my heat. this she did, for ard 1-2hours...when one is feeling sooooooooooooo terrible, one cant help but think "am i gonna die?"...my grandfather died from fever before i was born...i dont wanna "go" in such a meaningless way...there are still a lot of things i wanna do...i was really scared...so when my mama left the room, i thought if i were to sleep for eternity, the least i shud do is to thank her and say i love her. i wanted to say "mama i love you" but the words just wont come out. so i ended up saying "thanks mom, love u..."...when u fall seriously ill, it makes u realise how fragile life is...so...treasure everyday, ppl...and take good care of your bodies...and also, respect ur parents...they may not appear to care for u or they restrict u or wadever, but actually, they care a lot for u de...its jus how they express their care and concern only...must cherish them...
went to see doctor today...she gave me 2 days MC...sigh...actually no use one lah. i dont bother to apply for LOA anyway. hehehe. but wad i dun really like is...the loss of strength in my limbs...i doubt i could even carry my bass...i dont think i have the strength to play...so i might not be going CO tml...didnt like that idea at all >_<
came online...jus den QT came online too. had a small chat before she left den she asked abt my fever etc etc...haha...thanx for ur concern...im really really glad u asked ^^ EL asked last night too...and poon also, i think...thanx, guys, for ur concern.
anyway, i think i will be resting early tonight...hopefully i can feel well enough to go for co tml...
