Yes. I have been sick. Still am actually. Been down with the flu since Saturday. Damn jialat I tell you. I spent the whole weekend in bed. I felt a little better on Sunday night, so I thought it would be safe to go to work on Monday. Bad move I tell you. Despite missing Jap class to go home to sleep early, my fever was back up on Tuesday and I was coughing worse than before. In the end I left the office after lunch on Tuesday. Yes, I went to work even though I was not feeling up to it. The ironic thing is that Tuesday morn before I left the house, I saw this article in the Straits Times about how people who are sick should not be going to work because it hurts productivity rather than help. Guess I should've seen it as a sign. Tch. Anyhow, so I left the office after lunch and went home to sleep. Then today went down to get an MC and called in for a day off, even though I did feel much much MUCH better. But I figured, no point taking chances. Might as well rest for one whole day then get back to work.
Dunno what kind of persistent flu virus this is. This is the... *counts* Fifth day I'm sick, technically I do feel better, coughing less. But I'm still having to take panadol at intervals to suppress a fever! Seriously, about 4hours after each dosage, I will start to feel the fever coming back. And that just sucks!! Shouldn't it be totally gone by now??? Crazy virus.
But at least it's just the flu. At one point I did think "Oh shit, what if it's dengue??" coz there were 2 cases at my workplace recently. 2 of the dancers kena-ed and had to be hospitalized. Damn scary. Then just before that one of them got pneumonia. (O_O) Can you imagine? One of my collegues got so freaked she bought one of those air purifier thingys.
Anyhow, hopefully the fever will be completely gone tomorrow. Have to go back to work. Bleah. Really hope I can stop working soon. Really hope I get a positive answer from the UK. *prays*
