Down and up again.
After weeks of excessive partying (almost a month!), reaching home in the wee hours of the morning, tucking in to prata at 3 am, going for more midnight movies than i've been to my entire life, meeting up with friends and cousins every single day, i am finally down. This energizer has finally ran out... Kena hit by the flu bug and was forced to stay home the whole weekend and yesterday, just to recuperate. I am feeling woozy. fluey, weak and cold all at once. Alamak. Doc says it's just a bout of throat infection, but well oh well, it sucks to be down.
Well, being down does have its own pros. For starters, i got a stern talking to from a certain someone, who asked me why i had to party so hard, to the extent of not being able to take care of myself? He made me promise to drink plenty of water, and see the doc etc etc. Ha. It's been awhile since i got a chiding from someone who cares. I know i am silly, that i actually love being reprimanded, but at least, there is someone there to scold you and you feel kinda important! Ha. (This psycho & neurotic side of me tends to appear when i realised that i am beginning to treasure the little things that i once took for granted.) I actually know how it feels like when no one cares if you're dying or not.
He got a little worried about my health and i whined away, hinting that i do actually need someone to take care of me, sometimes. He went a whole way round the bush and said that if i don't take care of myself, how can others take care of me? (before finally agreeing to take care of me and has been calling regularly to make sure i take my meds and water) =)
But, my spirits are up. I hafta be, at least. There are 2 parties this week, for our readers, and i am co-host for it, so my voice has gotta be back. Also, i am in the midst of my diving lessons! Hurrah! I am so excited, even though it's just good old boring theory lessons now, learning about bouyancy, BCDs, SPGs, yada yada yada.
So, it's not so bad being sick afterall, except....... i hate the taste of cough mixture!
