Update on my previous post on super shitty 28 July 2007.
Well, it is 29 July 2007 now. The day after.
My eMac is still down. The Apple Service Centre is closed on Sundays. I guess I will have to call back tomorrow.
As for me, I couldn’t sleep the whole of last night due to the nagging pain in my throat. To make things worse, while I was actively soothing my throat by downing mug after mug of warm water, I was also actively losing fluid through my nose which was running like a broken tap. Liquid in from one channel, liquid out immediately from another channel.
I eventually gave up trying to sleep and tried to entertain myself by watching the FRIENDS DVDs that my sister lent me.
Not recommended for viewing when you are sick
It made me feel even worse. Somehow, when you are sick, canned laughter and corny jokes make you sicker. I wanted to strangle the Joey Tribiani and Chandler Bing characters after watching three continuous episodes.
I tried to do some reading after that. It was a Chinese book about China’s Last Emperor, Aisin-Gioro Pu Yi‘s later stage in life as a commoner under the communist regime. The book was an interesting read, but a tat too heavy for a sick person. Plus my mucus keep dripping on the book which is super gross.
Eventually, I spent the rest of my time tossing and turning in bed, trying to sleep in spite of the nagging pain.
When it was finally 8.30am (the time the clinic opens), I rush off to see the doctor.
As I was early, the consultation session went fast. I was prescribed with the usual flu tablets, lozenges for the throat, a bottle of cough syrup, antibiotics and a weird ‘detox’ mouth gargle. I supposed the latter is to help keep my mouth clean to prevent further infection to my pathetic throat.
Oh, and I was given two days MC for today and tomorrow. Hence I won’t be working tomorrow. Not really a good thing as I have work to clear before I fly off to Bangkok this Thursday. Sigh.
On top of my work, I still have to worry about my stupid IPPT and video editing that needs to be completed asap (dependent on the status of my equally sick eMac).
Hopefully, I can have a speedy recovery before Wednesday so I can go sit for my IPPT. I seriously cannot imagine having to waste another month going through the boring and time-consuming RT regime again.
Get well soon Alvinology.

I feel for you dude. I couldn’t sleep last night too, and today was the triathlon! But I survived la, thanks to a stroke of luck! Haha! Get well soon!
P.S. I dripped mucus on a precious comic book I had once. Ouch.
