Haven't you heard that I'm gonna be okay?

I fell really sick last Friday; was down with high fever, flu, cough and a really sore throat.
Having high fever really sucks because you feel really cold on the inside but on the outside, you're burning up like crazy. As a result, I shivered throughout the night while sleeping and no matter how many layers I had on me, it didn't seem to give me sufficient warmth.

Visited the doctor on Saturday morning and the whole time while I was waiting for my turn, I couldn't sit upright for even a minute. I had to lean against my mum for support because I was really weak. To add on, I also had spasms at my abdominal area which resulted from my incessant coughing, thus straining my stomach muscles. I ended up having to take 6 different kinds of medicine (the most I've ever been prescribed at one go).

Went home and my domestic helper had to help me up the stairs leading to our unit while my parents went off to the market. I felt like dying the whole time because the spasms were unbearably painful. I couldn't stop moaning in pain even when I reached home and laid in bed. My domestic helper then fetched a bucket of hot water, in which she soaked a hand towel and then used it to put it on my tummy area. After a few rounds, I felt sooooooo much better.

So yeah, basically, the past few days have just been a period of recuperation & recovery for me because each time I ate my meds, I knocked out not long after.

This sweetie pie literally stayed by my side the entire time I was in bed resting. I felt really touched because it felt as though she wanted to protect me or keep tabs on me or give me some warmth cause I was evidently shivering and breaking out in cold sweat. She can be soooooooo darn lazy most of the times but she knows when to show care & concern when it's due and that's one of the reasons why I love her :*

Oh and because I fell sick on Friday, I couldn't fully enjoy watching Captain Phillips @ the cinema because the whole time, my back was very sore. That's what you get for being down with the flu; body aches EVERYWHERE.

On a side note, I'm looking forward to some of the movies in 2014!

I guess I'm just gonna spend the whole of today scrapbooking.

Let's see how much I can actually get done, hahaha.

Have a good day everyone! :-) x
