Sunday night, 9.30pm
Dar and I sat at the couch feeling sick, feverish with discomfort in our throats and me with a runny nose.. Aaaah... Choooo!!! Finally, I gave up and decided to take panadol and flu med left from my doc visit few months back as I desperately need to be well for work on Monday.
Monday, 650am
Felt better so changed and headed out for work. "Fakey morning"! Towards the second half of the day, I was almost K.O. Took med to sustain till end of the day! Waited eagerly for dar to pick me up so that I can quickly seek help from my usual doc BUT the clinic was closed! I'm so dying and hungry that I decided to quickly grab dinner and rest after taking the same med and see a doc the next morning.
Tuesday and Wednesday, down and out! Slept alot on Tuesday, 16 hours out of 24 hours but Wednesday I slept 10 out of 24 only cos I need to get back to work mode.
Thursday, 650am
Felt ok BUT after stepping into the aircon environment in office, all e symptoms came back. Luckily, I had my medicine with me so I popped the pills at the depicted timings and tried to stay focused on my work which I guess I didn't do very well, including the meeting that I needed to attend. *disappointed with myself*
Friday, 650am
Couldn't have felt worser than this.. Super duper sore sore throat and lost my voice for the morning, had to use lotsa strength to express what I wanna say in a clear manner. Good thing I slowly regained my lovely voice in the afternoon.. haha.. And the finale (I hope) was this, the green monster finally decided to show itself by wanting me to cough and fight it one on one.. And so Smart Smart me decided to spit it out in bits and pieces at different locations so that it cannot come as one! And I will win!!!
With that, I think I am on the route to "victory"! Coughing and spitting and coughing and spitting, with a bit of sore throat due to the coughing of course.. Ewe.. and Ouch..
Gosh, it has been a torturous 5 days and I've not recovered yet.. Sigh.. How many more days to go??? Wonder if I will get to sleep well with the coughing?? It has been years since I was ever so sick, if I remember correctly.. Get well soon, gal.. ;)

The guy: "Hi, so you live on the 5th floor?"
Moi: "Hi, yes. You too?"
The guy: "Yes, the corner unit. So how do I address you?"
Moi: "Ms Chua"
The guy: "Oh, so formal ah?"
Moi: "Oh well, you can call me Jessica then."
(The lift reached the 5th floor and we said bye and that was it)
The second interesting conversation
We took the same lift with the guy.
The guy realized that we stay on e same floor and said, "Hi, you were the one who introduced yourself as Mrs.."
Moi: "Nope, not Mrs but Ms, Ms Chua.
The guy insisted I called myself Mrs something.
And so I insisted nope, that cannot be cos I never address myself as Mrs.
The guy insisted still. And I just said, anyway, he (referring to dar dar) knows me, so whatever.
The guy had no choice but said ok and left.
So crazy!
A totally weird conversation and a suitable title for the conversation we had was "Addressing one".
Hope I dun bump into him again to give him a chance to continue the silly conversation from where we left off. We probably have nothing much to say to each other such that how to address ourselves can be a topic for us every time we meet.

A gathering at Costa Sands (Pasir Ris) chalet which I super duper looked forward to... cos it's a fun break from the usual routine weekend and so timely cos it's the weekend after my July peak! But with an unexpected wake, we had to shuttle to and fro the wake on 2 out of the 4 days.. :(..
