Called in sick this morning after 4 days of being down with the stomach flu.
Apparently Norovirus and winter stomach bugs are rampant out there and I am unfortunately just someone who is too susceptible to these things.
Fortunately I don't feel as bad as I did a few days ago (really bad) but my stomach still seems unsure of how it feels, so I thought I'd better not risk it since I'm dealing with food and people and stomach flu just doesn't quite fit in the group.
It's a rare situation that I ever get my Saturdays free since I've been working every weekend for the last three years, and I thought hey might be a bit productive today with uni stuff!
Time that I finally rolled out of bed to shower: 12.30
This hasn't happened since I was home in the summer.
Time that I finally fed myself: 3.30pm
The most productive thing I've done as of 5.22pm:
stab a pin on my nails to make polka dots.
Now I remember why I work every Saturday and Sundays--
because I'd just sit around and do nothing otherwise!
Oh dear! Aneesah pun sakit last winter hols, muntah2, then diarrhea, they say it was the winter bug as well. X_x Ended up stuck in our hotel room in France while my travelmates tolong belikan ubat diarrhea, eheh. Get well soon and make sure makan ubat tau Kim!
ReplyDeleteAnd ... yeah. That rolling out of bed at noon is quite typical of (non-working) student weekends! :P There's truth to the saying, "If you want something done, give the task to a busy person". I quite like having lots of tasks to finish, kalau tak memang akan fall to the default pemalas mode.
I had it last Feb too! but didn't get the pukey issue thankfully! Oh gosh to have it during travelling must've sucked a lot :( It took effort for me to even leave the house! No worries I've been drugging myself so much I don't even know which meds are working, but it's working! :)
ReplyDeletegosh I need pressure to work. :( Deadlines give me good sparks of productivity but unfortunately it only works when it's REALLY close to the date, which is bad coz it makes working stressful and all these good ideas don't get time to be executed. Oyoyoy the perils of an architecture student ;)
