So the short-term attention span runs in the family -_-
Since Thursday and all throughout the weekend I was a little sick with a cold or something of the sort. Except the weird thing was that back then, I looked and sounded fine. I had a sore throat yet my voice seemed normal...sounding. Some coughs and sneezes here and there but nothing anyone worried about. I was hoping that it was something that wuld pass quickly, and that it was just something tiny that I picked up from being at the amusement park all day on a sunny but chilly-ish Wednesday (WOOOOOT! HELL YEAH, DORNEY PARK >D No one was there so my friends and I, being the broke losers that we were, stuck in NJ on summer break, rode EVERY RIDE. Even the baby rides. It was awesome XDDD), but it sadly was just getting worse. Phlegm started getting caught in my throat - and I hate it when that happens, you know, when you have to: "Haccckkkk--ptooo!" it out and into the sink, and it comes out all yellow and jelly-y (O.o). Nasty >P I started caughing a little more often and powerfully, the need for a tissue in my hand became frequent.
Damn this is getting pretty long, lol XD
Anyway I tried to go through the day(s) normally. I mean, it wasn't a horrible cold that would have me bedridden for a week, but it's not something to carry around everywhere =_= And it seemed like each day was concentrated on one symptom of this sickness. On Friday, my throat was REALLy itchy. On Saturday, I went through 1 and 1/2 boxes of tissues + those pocket tissues that my grandma carries around (not good, I had to go to my mom's friend's 2-year-old-daughter party). Then on Sunday, it was coughs, with some occasional stuffy noses. I think that sucked the most, because we were going to a fair 2 HOURS away from where we lived and we went straight after church =_= But at least my parents became aware of this.
Right after mass, my dad asked me why I didn't shake the priest's hand or anyone else's when we were leaving and I told him with a blocked nasal passage, "Well I'm sick."
5 minutes later, in the car.
Dad: "Haha, yeah my sunglasses blah blah...*turns to me* You're sick?"
Me: AODIFUOKWJEFO;DFAOIUE -_- "What are you talking about? I'm 100% healthy! Just ignore that huge mountain of used tissues next to me....Uh, a little =P"
Dad: "Oh. Hm." :|
And he didn't bring it up anymore. I can't believe that he/anyone else didn't approach me, especially when I was having a coughing/sneezin spasm. I'm such a great actress. HOLLYWOOD BABY! At least, when we were going home and I was sprawled on the seat, my mom was finally like, "Oh, are we playing dead? Hey, are you going to be okay? We're still an hour and a half from home." Oh yeah, that's so comforting, I'll be FINE, mom. THANK YOU. :P
Anyway sticking to some Filipino roots, I tried rubbing Vicks (or BIX as they say XD) on my chest, but it kind of made my lungs feel tightened. I think it's because it expired/s NOV 06. And I'm pretty sure that's 2006. Which was last year -_- But yeah, I'm kind of better now. Still coughing, but at least my nose is 93% clear now! 8D You really don't appreciate what you have until you lose it or get it stuffed up with gooey yellow crap. I'm thinking I'll be perfect-er by Thursday ;D
OH DEAR GOD MY FAMILY IS WATCHING SOME FREAK SURGERY ON THE DISCOVER HEALTH CHANNEL o.O...and they're so enGROSSED by it
