It's been a long time since I've felt so sick. I don't even know what "sickness" this is. My head hurts, my stomach hurts, I feel hot and cold simultaneously and my back aches. I feel like an old man.... an old man who's nearly been run over by a car.
Being sick makes me feel unproductive as well. I spent my double free period lying across three chairs in the library impersonating a hobo at Hyde Park. Now I know why people love sleeping in free periods so much. And when I felt cold, I migrated to the heater. Of course, afterwards I felt really guilty because I realised I now had a ton of untouched maths homework.
Then came recess and I went around asking for drugs from people. Okay, not drugs but Panadol. Unfortunately, nobody had Panadol so Juliana and I went to first aid where I asked my auntie if she had anything. She couldn't give me anything though without ringing my mum so I was like, "Nahhh". So much effort just to stop feeling so nauseous.
After recess, I had to give my Wuthering Heights speech which was worth 40%. It wasn't too bad. Mostly I just forgot how sick I was....until I finished the speech and then spent the rest of the double trying not to run outside and throw up in the bin. It was torture. I wanted to get up and lie horizontally on the table just to stop the aching in my back LOL. Poor Ms A - she had to sit through three similar speeches on Wuthering Heights, one of her students had just dropped and another one now wanted to impersonate a sacrificial lamb.
Afterwards I walked home with Tian. Again I mostly kept silent and tried not to puke. When I'm sick, I'm much more quiet than usual. And it gets tiring explaining to people how crap you feel so mostly I just stay silent. Unfortunately that also means coming across much more antisocial than usual. Sorry guys - I wasn't trying to be a bitch, I just felt too crap to talk.
At home, I dragged my pillow and blankets downstairs and passed out on the couch. I woke up three hours later feeling better but also immensely guilty. Those three hours could have been spent doing my extension 2 project. Le sigh. This is why I hate taking naps on a school day; I always end up feeling so guilty. Gahhh! I hate being sick.
Now that's weird. I feel like I have a fever but the thermometer has a reading of 35.7. Stupid digital thermometer from Tokyo, Japan. Your company is selling FAULTY MERCHANDISE. What are you gonna do when the whole world gets swine flu? HUH?! ANSWER ME!
... OH. I geddit. You're supposed to keep it there for 2 minutes, not 1. LOL
Well what can I say, today was such a bludge. My throat was full on stuffed up the whole day and I was addicted to drugs. I think I ate 4 strepsils at school even though you only take one every 2-3 hours.
I had vocals at 10:30 to 11. It was my last lesson with this teacher coz she's going to New York soon. -sigh- I forgot to warn her about the swine flu over there. During the whole lesson, another lady came in and watched. Apparently, she's going to take over from my current teacher. So there I was. Singing (quite badly) with a stuffed up throat in front of two experienced people. Not exactly my idea of a good time.
I finished reading Finnikin of the Rock yesterday. It was good but it would've been better if I actually understood what was going on. NTS: never space out while reading the first few chapters of a book. I feel like I've just wasted a good story :(
I also feel sad now. Coz I'm never gonna see someone at somewhere anymore. Stupid someone moved someone else down a something at somewhere. Damn you someone.
& I'm gonna end off here coz I got tutor hw. Btw, while I was writing this post, I tried to get another reading on the thermomer. Here it is: 34.7 degrees. See I knew I was using it right!
As some of you know, I stayed home today. It was fun =D Mostly I just slept and watched BBF though...
Oh yes, and if anyone is wondering, I named the baby Edward Junior, after his daddy dearest ;)
Well there's not much else to say. I'm going to school tomorrow though coz of science test. -sigh- I can successfully say that I have wasted a day. But it was fun. Who knew that my townhouse looked so pretty in the afternoons? With the sun shining through the trees and the train station basked in a warm glow... I think the laziness has gotten to me.
BTW Elyn, I've nearly finished Lirael. Hehe sorry for taking so long, I hardly read anymore coz of our lazy rollcall and stuff.
Oooh yes, I read a poem on the net. It was about chickens losing feathers. This chicken kept getting teased by other chickens until one day, a rooster came along and stuck up for him. Then they lived happily ever after. THE END
Genius.
Anyways, I really like this picture so I think I'll post it.
Aren't they cute??
Nancy, this picture is for you. Enjoy XD
Truth or dare? :p
