It's been approximately three days since I had the cold/flu. It's kinda funny how I was half-expecting that I would wind up sick this week or the next. I had that thought two weeks before. It was some kind of a 'test-thought'. Since it's been so hot lately and my room usually resembles a sauna in mid-morning and early afternoon, you could very well imagine how I would look and what I would crave. (sweating = wanting to refresh = air condition/electric fan = sweat will disappear temporarily = allergy attack/cold/pneumonia after continuous cycle)
I hate sweating. Sweat is good if you're doing sports or working out. It would mean your body's reacting from strenuous activities and the like. Sweat is good when you're in a sauna. It would mean you're body's reacting to releasing your toxins and et cetera. But sweating just because you changed your sleeping position is something on a whole different level of making me pissed. I mean, how would you feel if you'd want to sleep but then you're soaking in your own bed and the electric fan is producing hot air?
I would blame the smoke from siga and various bad gases some sprays produce. Don't people know it affect our ozone layer? Would they want their summer days to mean skin diseases and don't-you-dare-go-outside-and-expose-yourself-to-the-sun vacation? (UV rays!) It would totally ruin summer vacation! As a matter of fact, days ago I remember myself muttering about how I dislike summer now, despite the word 'vacation' after it, just because it's waaay hotter than usual and that my 'friends' still haven't decided on an outing spot!
For crying out loud, don't you guys wanna get together before the grueling 2nd year of college learning begins?
Anyway, back to me and my health condition. So I was thinking, 'I wonder how long until I come down with something?' And after almost two weeks, here we go! I finally came down with a cold. Who'd thought it would take me more than ten days for this! My resistance sure went up compared to when I was little. That makes me happy. =)
But happiness stopped there. x_x For three days now, my throat hurts and itches, my eyes are watery and sometimes itchy, my ears are 'popping', and I constantly cough and sniffle. Of course it's worse than my usual allergy attacks. Yesterday I slept around 3am just coz I drank 3 mugs of coffee (to soothe my throat), skipped dinner, and read a bunch of fanfictions. After sleeping for about two hours, I woke up past 5am, feeling more terrible. As the coughing and sneezing ensues, I stayed awake for a few hours and then drifted off to sleep again.
I woke up around lunch time and ate lugaw with some non-flavored Skyflakes. I also took my medicine then I read a bit of my old books and slept again. (See how the cycle goes?) I woke up in the afternoon, went downstairs and watched Bleach and Hana Yori Dango Jdrama.
Side note: It seems that the Japanese version portrayed Tsukasa and Rui's friendship tighter (than expected) than in the Meteor Garden series. I actually teared-up watching Tsukasa bid farewell to Rui. =O
Mental note: I knew I should've bought the HYD Jdrama dvd that day when I had the chance! Argh! Now I have to settle for dub on GMA. The voice acting is nice though; the two main characters' voices were played by my favorite Tagalog dubbers. What I'm worried about is.. Did GMA cut some scenes or not?
Back to my sickness.. So after that, I watched Gilmore Girls season 2 (for the fourth time I think) while non-stop eating lugaw, crackers and drinking chamomile tea. (I became very fond of lugaw.) When it got late, I went to my room, changed into my old sweater and checked emails and fanfictions. After a while, my throat started itching again so I gave in to making coffee. I drank coffee while reading then I felt sleepy and went to bed.
Ironic how sometimes coffee calms me. I makes me wanna get a coffeemaker. Damn, I should stop this coffee craze before I devote myself to it.. must resist..
*sigh* And now here I am, sniffling momentarily, hoping that I would never catch cold again (simply because I hate itchy throat, the coughing and the sneezing). Why did I expected this in the first place? I knew I would be getting it anyhow. =_= Nakakainis.. Ngayon pa namang gusto ko uminom ng coke kahit konti.. ung malamig.
One last thing, I've a question. Is the english of lugaw porridge? If not, what is it? Just curious.
Nga pla, special greetings: Happy bday to Tita Cruzie! Hehe.. I remembered. I greeted her last year so, I'm doing it again.. La lang.. I miss you na, pare.
