NOAH PUCKERMAN. :D

So I was sick yesterday.
It started off with a few sneezes and sniffing yesterday morning, but by the time it was evening it became sneezing and sniffing every few minutes. I could barely see where I was going or what I was doing. By dinner I was so uncomfortable; I was so groggy and my eyelids were so heavy I felt like I was dying. I think I might have had a slight fever or something.

I skipped tuition yesterday, popped a pill and went to bed at about 8.15pm. A nice 10 hours sleep was all I needed, because when I woke up this morning I felt much better, albeit a few sniffs.
But as of now I feel totally fine. :)
I decided not to stay back after school to run the 5km track; another run might just send me off to popping another pill and sleeping for 10 hours again.

And now, off to watch GLEE. I have 5 more episodes before I finish season one. :)

ACHOO.

I think my fever, sneezing fit, runny nose and sorethroat might be getting better already! :)

And since I have nothing to blog, AGAIN, I shall just refer this post to erm, random facts:

1. I have always named my plushies and toys, and I always find it hard to give them away. That's why they always say not to name things if you don't want to get too attached to it!

2. Everbody pronounces it as "running nose", but it's really "runny nose".

3. I want to go to the same university as Emma Watson in the US. :)

4. I'm nervous about not knowing which college to go to after SPM.

5. I know almost all the lines from the Harry Potter novels (I'm a devoted fan!). :)

6. The one vacation place/study place I've always wanted to go would be England. God Save The Queen!

7. I actually have a really low self-esteem, even though I try not to show it.

8. I've dropped my Nokia phone countless of times and it still works!

9. Porochial is actually pronounced "poh-roh-kuh-eeal" and not "poh-roh-shuh-eal" as I thought.

10. They cancelled the Avatar: The Legend Of Aang on Nickelodeon! :(

I think that's enough for one day. Now I shall wait patiently as my weirdness sinks into your brain. :)

Peanut Butter And Cheese

My poor sister. She came down with a fever last night and didn't go to school today.

She slept the whole day through and she was still wearing her sleeping gown when I came home from school.

And speaking of school, I went to the Taylor's College Sri Hartamas Campus for my after-PMR activity today.

It was labelled The Amazing Race when we signed up for it, but now I don't feel anything amazing about it. Except that my sneakers made an amazingly loud noise when I was running though the college campus looking for the Explorace answers.

They made us sit down in one of the lecture halls when we came in and we spent our next 2 hours there learning about Taylor's College and What To Expect In Form 4 and playing Think-Go (It's something like Bingo, but with a little more twisted sense of fun).

So yeah. And when the Race came, all we did was spent half an hour going around looking for answers to the Taylor's University College's questions.

Arrrgh. Not up to my expectations.

And though Agnes said that whoever won the Race would get money, the winning team did not. In fact, they got a stress-reliever in the shape of a star and a notebook.

Well nevermind, I bet Petrosains would be a lot more fun. And I can bring a camera and take pictures too! :)

Rachel's Theorem 2

Mind you, I was HORRIBLY HORRIBLY sick for the past 2 days. And I still haven't recovered yet.
I shall not reveal what terrible sickness I had, because I don't need to remind myself of them.
All I can say is, I sneezed a LOT, and looked like Rudolph the Reindeer, and sounded wheezy.
And THAT wasn't a pretty sight.

So here's my theory:

Every time during exam I get sick at least ONCE. Yes, once.
And I mean EVERY exam.
It's like...a body tradition!

So for this exam, I didn't get sick at all. Nope.
And now, my body's making my anti-bodies pay, by making their owner (and that would be ME) really, really sick.

And NO, I'm not imagining this, no matter how nutty I sound. It's true!
Just like how PeiShe thinks fairies are real.
=)

According to Wikipedia

I think I'm suffering from Amnesia. I think I really am.
I get these blogging inspirations from school and when I reach home I completely forgot what I wanted to share.
Darnit.

Amnesia (from Greek Ἀμνησία) is a condition in which memory is disturbed. The causes of amnesia are organic or functional. In simple terms it is the loss of memory. Organic causes include damage to the brain, through trauma or disease, or use of certain (generally sedative) drugs. Functional causes are psychological factors, such as defense mechanisms. Hysterical post-traumatic amnesia is an example of this. Amnesia may also be spontaneous, in the case of transient global amnesia. This global type of amnesia is more common in middle-aged to elderly people, particularly males, and usually lasts less than 24 hours.

Argh. I'm aging early. I don't see white strands of hair on my head though. Whatever.

Another effect of amnesia is the inability to imagine the future. A recent study published online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows that amnesiacs with damaged hippocampus cannot imagine the future. This is because when a normal human being imagines the future, they use their past experiences to construct a possible scenario. For example, a person who would try to imagine what would happen at a party that would occur in the near future would use their past experience at parties to help construct the event in the future.

Oh. I can DEFINITELY imagine my future. I even think of the impossibilities.
I think my forgetfulness may have been a disease from SOMEBODY, or perhaps just school pressure and most importantly, PMR stress.
For God's sake, I even have a daily schedule to keep me studying, walking my dog, talking to my rabbit (I don't want him to die of loneliness) practicing my guitar and exercising DAILY.
I even managed to fit "practicing guitar" twice on Saturday!

No, its not amnesia.
I think I may have just gone nuts.

I was confused.
But now I'm back up on my feet.
I realized I should've never doubted.
I still love you.

[Love] Sick

I have a slight cough, and a cold. My nose is all itchy and red. But I'm getting better. (:

I had to cancel my Maths tuition today because I felt awfully sick and tired.

Me: Hello?
Teacher: Rachel? Yes?
Me: Can I postphone the tuition today? I'm sick.
Teacher: Why? Not feeling well ah?
Me: Yes. *sniffs*
Teacher: Okay. Next time tell me earlier.
Me: Sorry.

I looked down the window today and you weren't there.
Where are you?

I'm a Panda

So I went to visit Gran and she seemed really fine. Her face wasn't pale anymore and she was hyperactive. She kept talking about studying.

And then later, I gave her a magazine to read and now she's a big fan of My Chemical Romance, as proved below. (:The nurses were really kind and the cafeteria was small but a nice place to eat. Too bad my parents didn't order TV cable for Gran or I could've been watching Star Movies or something (if they even have Astro)

Next to Gran (in the same ward) were two Indian ladies and one Malay girl. The one right next to her bed was watching TV all night long and the whole ward was noisy. Which I didn't mind, actually.

I'm tired. I've stayed up for 24 hours and my eye bags don't look pretty. I am on my way to become the skinniest panda in the world.

Happy Advanced Birthday to me!

24 hours

I didn't get to celebrate my birthday with the 15 muffins. I HAVE 15 muffins and I probably ate half of it, but that doesn't matter right now.

My grandma was hospitalized, and she's 96 this year and that scared a lot out of me (and you should probably understand why).
Anyway, I came straight home with my parents and my sister after my kakak called and said that my gran was sick.
She was feeling off the colour yesterday, since she wouldn't eat lunch and said she felt like puking. Plus she was really pale.

When we arrived home from the condo we found Gran shaking. Literally shaking.
She said her head hurt a lot. Mom and Dad brought her to a clinic immediately and the doctor said she had lung infection and had to be taken to the hospital immediately.

And that's when I couldn't sleep and had to cancel my birthday shopping trip with my friends. (So sorry Mel, Agnes, Yuen Xin and especially Pei).
So far I've stayed up for 22 hours without sleep and have been watching all sorts of cartoons and shows.

Anyway, I'm going to visit Gran later in the afternoon and staying with her there for 3 or 4 hours to take care and accompany her. I look forward to seeing her. (:

Over and Out

I felt as though someone had just punched me in the head, and I fainted. But then afterwards someone else threw a bucket of cold water over my head and now I'm feeling much better.

The reason of why this particular week had been of any difference of the last few weeks is that the exams came and went.
And I feel simply over-exhausted, which is most probably the cause of my sickness.

Conditions of Sickness:

1. . Sore throat
2. Heavy head
3. Cold
   

Causes:

1. Screaming from discussion of exams
2. My practically useless Chinese teacher
3. Studying in a current-no-more Living Hell
   

You should really see why shopping should be a therapy cure
