falling sick

I finally feel stronger and better today to even sit in front of my laptop and do some updates. Not like anyone cares but oh well i do. Whatever then.

The past 2 days have been hellish. I don't know what happened to me but i felt really uncomfortable since Monday. Stuffy feeling in my chest and a queer feeling in my throat. Kind of ignored it and thought that i'll be better with more sleep and water. Caught Twillight with Samo and ate pretty much of junk food. I TOTALLY DEVOURED ONE THIRD OF A BOTTLE OF KIMCHI IN ONE NIGHT. Ate lots of spicy food in fact. Couldn't resist the temptation.

On Wed i had to go for an interview. After the interview i was already feeling super under the weather. So i headed down to WCP for some soup and rice and coke+ salt to make myself feel better. Thought of seeing the doctor but it only re-opens at 3pm so i drove home to take a nap first. Chatted with people online, went through my emails and then i couldn't take it anymore. It felt so terrible, and my whole body was aching and i felt so cold although the sun was blazing hot. So i left for the doc and bumped into my mom at the lift lobby so we went to clementi central tog. I went to see the doc and she went to get groceries.

I was shivering like mad at the doctor's and luckily there weren't too many patients so i didn't have to wait for long. Got my medicine and went to meet mom and drove back. Once i got home i flung myself to bed and took some medicine and commanded myself to sleep despite that my back felt really sore and my body was heating up.

Man it felt so disastrous. I took my temperature and it just kept going up everytime i take it! Evil. And the area i created on my bed with my body temperature is like an oven. If i took away the blanket, i feel cold. If i put it on, it gets burning hot. GRRRRRRRR. And i kept downing water and went to the toilet to flush out the toxins and all. And i had weird dreams that were surreal and out of the world. I cannot even recall what were my dreams. Then i had to lug myself out of the bed for dinner and every swallow of rice and soup is ultra painful to my throat. No appetite.

Then i lay on our leather couch and covered myself with shawls and sweaters and managed to perspire quite a bit. My eyes stang and my skin tingled. Then washed up and went to bed and i kept waking up the whole night. Sometimes i would wake up and the sky is still dark, sometimes you can hear cars moving and motorcycles gearing to go, and sometimes the sun is in your face.

Till now i am still recuperating. Trying hard to recover and rest more, although i don't really know what led to this bout of illness and extremely high fever. Freaked me out totally. Now i just feel weak and i cannot really talk without sounding raspy. And my nose is like an open tap. UGH I DON'T LIKE BEING SICK!

Honestly, being sick is the most terrible thing in the world. It beats falling out of love, getting lousy grades, becoming fat, losing hair, falling down, getting betrayed or neglected by friends or what so ever scenarios that you can figure.Health is of utmost importance. And family is something that stays with you for life, whether you like it or not. Friends and boyfriends may not necessarily stay for life, although there could possibly be exceptions.

BAHHHH.
I have an insane craving for tom yum soup, dark chocolates, truffles, Wagyu beef and steam boat right now~~~~~~~
I WANNA EAT NICE FOOOOOOOD!!!

and i totally need an overhaul right now.
