i survived the 9-hour night shift on friday night while enduring a running nose, sore throat and headache. huh! tough, yeah? i thought so too.
i went out of the workplace annoyed on a saturday because the sky was gloomy that i can't wear my sunglasses which annoyed me much more because that means that i can't hide my tired and red eyes. ugh!
when i came to big brother's house, kyra was already awake and she opened the door for me. i had a cup of coffee while tara and kyra were having their dress rehearsal. i was like "high".
when tara and ramir left for work, kyra asked me if i'd care to watch a movie with her. she said it was a very good movie and a "must-see" one. okay. i told her i might only see the first few minutes and i'd dozed off. she said, "no, mader! you should see the entire movie". i told her i'll try.
so we settled ourselves in tara and ramir's room with james' laptop, a roll of tissue and watched "ghajini", a bollywood love story. i agree with kyra, it was a good one: the lead actor (which i recognized from the "3 idiots" film) was brilliant! i'm a big fan of great acting, and he was superb! he put justice to the role that he was playing. the female lead star was beautiful and funny. so, i was starting to get hooked on the movie, forgetting the fact that i still haven't slept for over 12 hours and i have a headache, running nose and sore throat. when the usual bollywood montage played, i started to sleep. kyra shook me back to awareness. i did my best to watch the movie with half-opened eyes until i was hooked again.
after an hour, kyra left me because she had a class. i was left alone with "ghajini" and i was already chilling. i wrapped myself in a blanket and continued watching the movie. but i must have been feeling worse and wandered to unconsciousness before the movie ended. i woke up a couple of hours after when i heared james came into the room to get his laptop. i had the worst feeling ever! i haven't been sick for a long time, i forgot how it felt. my throat was dry, my head was throbbing and i was hungry. i tried to get up, ate something, took a paracet, went back to bed, wrapped myself in a blanket again and tried to go back to sleep. but i ended up staring at the ceiling. so i got up again and took a bath instead.
i was still curled up in bed when kyra came home from school. i told her that i was craving to eat chippy. we went out to buy some at the store. we decided to watch gnomeo and juliet afterwards. oh! the humor of the animation took me a little bit back to life. i regained much more energy when everyone started to come home...died down again on the way to guimbal and was back to a kicking mood when we reached papa and mama's place. i was okay...just a little weird for wearing a wool jacket during dinner while everyone else was sweating like a pig.
i took a high-dosage med after dinner and dozed off after an hour...
