I'm soooo.... tired. I've been cleaning house the whole day. I'm supposed to continue my Belum Temenggor Series but I just don't have the time and energy for it yet. I was down with fever and flu for the past few days. I only started to feel normal today. Though the fever has long gone and the lingering flu wasn't so bad but my head and neck felt so heavy. Maybe because I've been blowing my nose like nobody's business since I got the flu. When I prostrate in prayer, I felt like the whole brain got squashed onto my skull from inside and when I sit, it returned to its normal shape again.
It would be nice if I can get some neck and shoulder massage but I'm OK I think. Let's hope the headache won't return tomorrow. I've been eating rice porridge or soup for a few days too. My tastebud seems OK but I just don't have the appetite. I thought to myself, I can slim down if this kind of appetite continues for another week of two but tough luck. Yesterday, I had pizza fest with a friend. The first thing that comes to my mind when I started having my appetite back is pizza and between the two of us, we really cleaned the plate. It was quite funny :) She has never been a big eater herself but yesterday we ate like two starving women hehehe... We really were starving actually since both of us didn't have breakfast and lunch and it was almost three by the time we reached the pizza place.
I also discovered I've been taking steroid. Aaarrgghh.... I went to the clinic twice after I got sick. The second time, I have never been checked by this doctor though I normally go to the same clinic. He asked about my medical history and when I mentioned this particular pill that has always been prescribed for my allergy, he was surprised and asked me to stop taking them. It contains steroid and not only will it make me put on weight, it may also destroy my kidney function in the long term. I felt like screaming at the doctor who has been prescribing me that pill for quite some time already. I have been blaming age and slowing metabolism rate for putting on weight and it turned out steroid was the culprit. Now that I've gained weight, it's not easy to shed the pounds. Sigh! Anyone for extra fat?
Sunflower gives the connotation of cheerfulness, bright, jolly, merry... you get the idea! However, if any content in this blog didn't fit the cheerfulness implied by its name, look at it this way... I'm putting down all the wretchedness, gloom, melancholy feeling in here so I can continue living up to the expectation of making the association to the sunflower.
