Another of the girly, emo blogs that you run across on the Internets.
It all started with some smokers SMOKING IN A NON-SMOKING ZONE (Before any of you gaytard’s start blasting me again). And my poor nasal anatomy got surprise buttshecksed, and I got sick. T.T
On a sidenote… I thought angry comments are mostly left for the more popular bloggers, who flick it off as spam? Gosh, thanks for giving me the surge of fame.
*Syok sendiri nia*
Anyway, life for me has been pretty mundane. Wouldn’t want to bore you with my eat work shit play routine, so I’ll write about being sick instead, and cross my fingers and hope that it won’t bore you as well.
Day 1
Nasal cavity and throat was fucking congested, I couldn’t breathe throughout the night. So yes, I couldn’t sleep. Not even with the aid of a Panadol. T.T It was something like an oxymoron. See, I couldn’t breathe, so as any normal human would, I opened my mouth to gasp for whatever air there was. What a wrong, wrong mistake it was. When I finally managed to doze off after getting the air I needed to keep me alive, a burning sensation on my throat promptly woke me up. God, the pain was terrible. For my case, when my nose gets inflamed, what follows is my throat. I guess that’s the norm for most people, right? Therefore, my whole night consisted of restless dozes, rolling, sweating (hot lately it has been), rolling again, going to drink salt water, pee, doze off, roll, roll, roll, wake up to drink more water, and… Ah! You get what I mean by now right? Teehee…
Day 2
What was I doing on that Saturday… Hmmm… Ah yes! Playing with my dear’s new purchase, the uber lightweight (read: small screen), portable (read: uncomfortably small keyboard for touch typists), and mobile (read: pretty true, can borrow to do presentation in the future teehee!)… *drum roll please*
Eeepc! Easy to Learn, Easy to Work, Easy to Play. Thee Eee. Whoa~
I guess my sentences in brackets pretty much sums up what I wanna say about it, LOL! Oh ya, if you were thinking… Yes, I dribbled mucus all over Old Town Kopitiam (free WiFi for cheapstakes like me). So don’t go there okay, probably have bits and pieces of my- (Sentence left in mid-air due to a sudden flicker from my Dell. Trying to tell me something, Mr Vostro?)
Day 3
Alas, the third’s the charm, right? Probably. Cough like shat like that, it wasn’t fun. My guts will probably fly out if I were to cough any harder. But, the kiasu punya chabor went to pak toh also, dun care, wanted to watch how funny was Kung Fu Panda. And, it delivered. W00t! Pure good humour blended into the nicely done graphics. No sign of trying too hard (like the degrading Disney which is pretty disappointing of late), and the humour is just spot on! Finally a movie that doesn’t try too hard. Love it! Must watch, hear me?! *shakes you and hears rattles* GO AND WATCH IT!
Day 4
I’m still sick, but not dead yet OKAAAAAAAY. And whaddaya know, a bottle of bird’s nest essence cured my cough. I’m still coughing the slightest bit, but not to the extent that my guts are at risk of flying out.
In conclusion, if you have a nose allergy / sore throat / cough, or all of the above:
- Drink salt water first thing in the morning, before you brush. Good bacteria you produce in the morning, they say.
- Rinse your mouth with salt water at every possible chance. Sounds lame, but kills bacteria like no one’s business
- No fried food, whatever nonsense that your mom throws at you, suck it in. It’s good for you.
- Drink… bird’s nest essence? Before you flame me for being a rich whore, well I got that pack from a relative during CNY so shut up.
- Stock up on basic medical supplies like Paracetamol (some people use Ibuprofen, but I think I’m allergic, yes?), and for me, I will die without my anti-histamine. Born with a lame drippy nose, it’s a must for me. So what’s for you huh?
K lah, sick people needs rest, finally. Good night. Sorry for the lack of updates.

Sudafed’s pseudoephedrine, use as a decongestant.
