Been out, with an infection nontheless. The common cold decided to pay a surprise visit on sunday night and before I had a chance to react, the symptons came full-blown in less than 24 hours. Funny how a few days ago I just lamented to myself about it's been long since I fell sick. You know, you should always be careful of what you wish(I didn't wish for this though) for. My body immune system is sleeping, I concluded and this left me writhing on my bed for a couple of days.

I forgot since when did my inflammed tonsils became so hard to bear with, they just seem to get worse each time the flu came. They are threatening enough to make me drag myself to visit the medical centre soon enough to see a Doc. When the symptons come full-blown like that, I know my Dorithricin won't work already. The only course of treatment would be to get started on antibiotics. So I guess it was a good few days of Detox? I think I drank more water and ate more fruits in these few days than I ever would in one healthy month. Kind of last minute but hey, at least I tried alright.

Being sick in hall is really not as miserable as they say, maybe cause I have fantastic people around me. Joanne brought me some herbal drink that I would never touch if not for my throat. Totally not for human consumption because it is really bitter plus it stinks. Then my roomie was ever so supportive, listening to me whine and being very kind and nice. Ps! Sorry for demanding porridge and had to make you go out and buy at midnight, my bad but thanks. Think that porridge made me feel stronger! So I'm kind of well now, just couldn't talk without sounding really sexy :p

Things are a bit crashing down. With exams coming dangerously near and th preparation level still dangerous low. Still have other stuff to complete and for once in this semester, I feel irritatingly suffocated. Maybe it is the cold or whatever, can't wait for EVERYTHING to be over. Anything and everything, I really want nothing.

So.. we all need help sometimes. No matter what we are or who we are, it's impossible to be self-sufficient everytime. We need time to accept the things that God hasn't allowed us to change. We need some time alone in the situation we can't deal with. Like how time stop and everything goes in slow motion, replaying over and over again. We need that, definitely, to prepare ourselves for what's beyond this situation. And when we finally are ready to face/deal with it, we will get up and we will move on.

Christmas is coming, don't celebrate it without the birthday boy.
