i have 5 days of MC left for the year...
in my almost 25 years on planet Earth, i have never taken so many MC days in one year...
and now,
for the first time in my life,
i am worried that i will run out of MC for the year..
still got 5 more months to go!

trying to recall all my MC days for this year...

2 days in Jan, 1 day in March, 2 days in July, 3 days in August...
hmm..got one day missing...can't remember...

i've had 3 URTIs (a.k.a. flu) and 1 ?gastroenteritis (gastric flu) + fainting episode in this year...

and then, suddenly i recalled an entry in made in feb http://niyihs.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html

there was this part about health...

"Health
Bad. Be careful in terms of health this year. You are more prone to falling ill (uh oh...maybe my new love can then take care of me :P) this year. Be careful of food poisoning. (wah liew...that's one of the worst kind of falling-ill :S) While you are enjoying extensive social activities, be careful in what you eat and where you eat. If you fall ill, you will take a longer period to recover. (hmm..it's happening already. still coughing from my indian-bug) "

geez....for once, i actually do believe in fortune telling...
but but..
then i remembered something else...about relationship..

"Relationship
If you are attached or married, you will find the love grow stronger this year. If you are single, there is a great possibility that you will find new love this year. (haiz..y can't vday be in dec so i have more time to meet my new love?)Go out and start to meet new people or spend more time with friends. You never know where the chemistry will strike."

and now, i dun really believe it anymore..
there's only a few months left to piggy year...
i'd very much rather i stay healthy...
no more giddiness (which i am currently experiencing)
no more URTIs (which i am still trying to recover from)
no more fainting (which i am trying to avoid everyday)

i've been home bound since thursday...
and although i keep telling myself i really should get myself out of the house for some fresh air...
i just dun dare to go out...
in case i faint...or i catch another bug...
now i really really just want to recover..feel better...and eat the food i've been conscientiously avoiding...

many thanks to the few who have been sms-ing/msn-ing me to check on how i am..
ur sms/msn msg helps me to feel less sorry for myself..
and less lonely...

feeling like crap physically...
feeling like crap emotionally...
basically i feel like crap...
i think i need a good dose of self-pampering...

2 weeks to HK..
i have 2 weeks to fully recover...
even if i don't, nothing is gonna stop me from eating all the good food in HK

please please let me get better...fast!
