i'm sick.. and though i shouldn't be too happy about it.. i'm just so happy i have an excuse not to work!! haha..
my temperature has dropped to 36.2 degrees now.. but yesterday it went all the way up to 38.9 degrees.. the highest i've ever gone..
it all started on sat.. i had a headache.. it feel like a normal headache.. quite sharp yet my head felt quite heavy.. so i blamed it on sleeping too much.. then on sunday.. the headache was still around.. but i didn't think much cuz i just woke up and if it was due to too much sleep then obviuosly it'll still hurt right.. so i didn't think much of it la.. then i went out after church.. and btw.. they were giving out free nescafe coffee at wheelock.. must try the exotic tiramisu one!! it's so nice!! *that was the end of the commercial break.. now back to the show* so i wasn't feeling hot then.. but i was feeling a little dizzy.. and it got dizzier and dizzier.. it was only till late afternoon then my hands started feeling cold.. this meant something was wrong.. cuz my hands are usually warm.. and because my hands were cold, i couldn't feel my actual temp accurately.. it was only when i was on the train home that i felt like i was burning.. and i had to concentrate just to stand straight if not i would have toppled.. then i started having crazy thoughts..
like what if the fever made me crazy or blind.. no!! i could feel something pressing against my eyes already.. (aiya.. but whenever you're sick your eyes will have that same funny feeling right.. i'm just being paranoid) so i rushed home to take my temperature..
38.5.. 38.6.. *so high?!* 38.7.. 38.8.. *no! don't go higher!* 38.9.. *don't reach 39!*
then it stopped.. haha.. though many of you might have had fever higher than this.. this is really the highest i've had.. so i quickly got the ice pack.. and ate dinner before taking medicine.. and then my temperature started going down..
38.6..
38.2..
37.7..
37.5..
then i took a bath.. or rather, shower..
36.8..
yay!! i officially have no more fever!!
haha.. then naturally the next question was.. 'should i go to work tomorrow..?'
but my mum says i better rest at home cuz it might come back.. so, ethel, i'm not slacking again.. i'm merely recuperating.. haha..
i went for a long walk on friday.. 4 hours i think.. from my office to suntec and back.. and i visited anna and ly.. feels good talking to familiar faces again.. instead of my colleagues with the generation gap between us.. haha.. it was good exercise.. and no, i'm not crazy.. haha.. though i don't think i'll ever do it again.. unless it's just a one way journey..
