A Long Day

Actually i find the last week of September and the first of October... quite short. Before that week, i was down with the fever, colds and cough. It's the most hilarious-caused-by-stupid-me-event that happened so far in my High School life. What happened? G what!

We have a project in music wherein we should make musical instruments from pure bamboo only. I made a xylophone-percussion thing, and it was the most sucky of all the instruments. I felt lazy to make the pieces held by one stick. No time for it. Furthermore, we had a rehearsal on a Monday, afterwhich, we had our early lunch. I saw a new drink in our caf, it was a Magnolia Ice Tea. 25php for 500ml, not bad. In addition, i was super high - as always. I saw a piece of bamboo which could be a substitute "baso". It was from Frankie, and he said that it was filthy-dirty. So, out of my very intellectually advance mind, i poured a shot on that bamboo glass. Btw, prior to that, i wiped it off with my polo and "tak-tak-ed" it on the table to remove the dust.

Well, there it goes... I drank twice from the vile container. At P.E. class i started to have colds. Moreover, once i got home, i felt so weak... just after doing 50 pushups in 10 seconds. Sobrang weak. I said that it will just need some rest over the night, but exceeding my expectations, i felt bad at 2am Tuesday. I was wide awake and had still the power to drink Paracetamol. Afterwhich, i felt "fine" for the moment.

Super luck! The AC of my school bus was dead, so i was sweating early in the morning. Oh yea, that Tuesday was Long Test day for Math. I was very aware that i would catch again a fever that day. 

I was super crazy that morning that i was sleeping on the floor and acting like a drunk worm. A sight to be hold - wiggling and jiggling. I said to myself, "Sa Physics nalang ako mag infirmary".

"Astig sana mag long test habang may sakit. Partida na. Isipin mo baka ma perfect ko pa yung test."

I felt the shivers and the numbness on my fingers. I was turning around and around while uttering jiberish. Finally, i felt so powerless that i almost consciouly-collapsed.

I asked Kyle to accompany me to the Infirmary. He left because 5min bell just rang. The nurse at the clinic now asked me to sit in a room for temperature checking. She said, "Dito ka lang, check namin temp mo for 5mins", and damn it was like 10 minutes already. I was tapping my freaking feet for her to hear me at the otehr room. I wasnt able to shout because the thermometer was in my mouth. I was lazy to remove it. 38.0 degrees celsius- HOTTT!

From there, i got a "GO-HOME" slip, but i even made a pahabol and asked:

Me: "Pwede pa ba dito nalang ako tumambay sa classroom? May long test pa kasi kami."
Nurse: Wag nalang. Mas mabuting magpahinga ka muna, tska baka mababa pa makuha mo
Me: *aside* uhhh. no?

I passed by APSA for the red tape - Permit to Leave Campus. I was asked to commute, JOY! 

I went to class to get my stuff. It was English time with Mr.Hidalgo. He gave me a handout and so i had the "Ummm, im sick and you want me to freakingly study this"-face. Oh well. I said my goodbyes and funeral invitations just in case  i die on the road.

It was Tuesday, two days before the Ateneo-La Sal game. Before i stepped out: "Pila ka sa Blue Eagle Gym!"

Well, no. I was super wanting to get to bed, but i passed the gym. There were no tickets for sale.
After a lot of steps and ups and downs, i got home around 12pm. My mom was at home so she was able to attend to me :D

The good thing when i get sick is that i can have all the food i want.
Jollibee 2PC. Burger Steak with Extra Rice and Extra Burger Sauce.
Jollibee Palabok
Mister Donut Donuts 2 Dozens!
Bottomless Ice Tea
Yellow Cabness :)

but... (that my favorite word)
...but i had to drink a lot of tablets.

- Antibiotic
- Anti-fever
- Anti-colds
- a substitute for Decolgen
- Multivitamins
- Expectorant for cough
- Cherifer :)) for the vertically challenged
+ very colorful "candies" when you place each other side by side.

Presently, October 4. I'm still "under" the curse of Colds and Cough. Demn.

So... the repurcussions were just easy-easy. I was able to catch up on lessons, especially Math Logarithms. The Math Make-up Long test was super easy, while the Physics was tough because i was absent on that week i was on recovery mode.

Well, that ends this very long entry.
