Being Sick Sucks

Am not sure if you know, but I do tend to get sick easily. T_T

I wasn't able to tell why, but after a long thought, I think it's mainly due to my eating habits. You see, back in the time where I still stay with my parents, I hardly fall sick. Maybe like once a year? But ever since I've moved out and stay on my own, I tend to get sick pretty often, almost like once every 2 months or even more.

Living condition is probably the same but I guess the food I take in these days are definitely imbalance compared to what my parents had fed me for the past 18 years. I mean, when you stay on your own, you tend to eat all the nice, tasty food without caring for balance in nutrients (screw nutritionists) and sometimes when you're in need to save, you just whack instant noodles like nobody's business. As a result, most of us who stay outside tend to be malnourished and thus becomes easy prey for sickness.

I, am a living example of such person. T_T

I miss my mum's cooking all of the sudden (though I admit I prefer choosing what to eat, but look how easy I get sick these days. FML).

The previous 2 days had been hell for me. I woke up one morning feeling like the earth is splitting into two, but I ignored it and thus went ahead to the office to work. Upon arriving, I felt that a tornado came through me and I was literally floating around. I couldn't help it but to take a quick rest in the office to regain my spirit before I could work.

Little did I know, I was pretty wreaked and I could barely crawl back to my seat to work properly. The next thing I knew, I was bombing the West toilet (next to Nicholas, Jestina and Michelle) as the East was occupied then. They had to endure the radiation worse than Hiroshima and Nagasaki had as my ammo was liquid and almost endlessly flowing out from my armory.

After emptying the armory, I continued working for awhile before global warming struck me and I had to once again lie down in the office to be okay. I stayed on because that day, I had to attend a movie screening and give out the tickets as Nicki wasn't able to watch the movie due to unforeseen circumstances and I didn't want her to be there since she's not watching thus I pressed on.

But as the sun goes down, my health kept getting worse and when it was time to head to the cinema, Nicki came to me and tell me to go home and she'll take care of everything. She was like an angel when I heard that from her. I was touched. I went home to get my rest but wake up randomly to check twitter in case anything went wrong during the screening. Thankfully nothing went wrong and it was a smooth sailing.

Nicki was great. She told me that she wanted me to go home because she can't let bloggers see me in my sick condition. My sick half-dying face would be all over the blogs if I was there. Lol. She was so sweet. ^_^

The pain didn't end there though. Today, when I woke up, the giddiness and fever continued and I decided to call it a day off and informed the boss and country manager about it. Went to the doctor about 10am and got medicine - antibiotic, panadol alike tablets and something to combat giddiness.

After 3 rounds of medication, I feel better now, writing this entry.

But being sick still sucks. I have a lot of work to catch up. :(

So if you happen to be staying outside like me, take my advice and start eating balance meals. It's okay to indulge in tasty food, but be sure you don't miss your veggies and fruits. :(

---------------------------

The day when I was sick, I was also denied of the luxury of unlimited data on my Xpax Blackberry. I forgot to reload my credit (left RM2.40 only) and thus I no longer had access to unlimited data today. This is reasonable of course, since it's a prepaid service. Activating it back is as simple as ABC, just send BB ON to 28882 and BB 250 again and you're back on. Of course, if you've already miss the day, activating it on the next day (12AM) would be wise. ;)

That's my tip on how to use your Xpax Blackberry wisely.

Stay tune for more Blackberry tips.

I think I'm feeling better. Have a meeting tomorrow at KL Sentral. Hopefully I'd be fine when I wake up. Wish me luck.

Half sick

Get well soon!!! aahhh,, do you think that since you carried more weight all the years you were growing up and have lost it now, that your body is operating in a weakened condition?? Don't get me wrong, you look just fantastic, and we would never want to see you put any more weight on, just that maybe you should take some vitamins and get lots of rest; in short, really look after yourself....please.
