Bloody sinus

Today after months of sitting at the same seat and desk,I had to move because around 17 newbies are at the office & today's the day they start working.I'm okay with 'em and they're all pretty cool but it means less space for me & my friends until I begin my shift next week--woohoo..I can wake up late!!:))

So currently I'm sitting beneath a different table,near the aircond vents which DOES NOT HELP MY BLOODY SINUS--which I'm still coming to terms with.It's bloody hard having this bloody condition.ahahaha.

Yeah,I'm pissed because I hate my runny nose and having to use lots of tissues and feeling uncomfortable.Bring back my dry normal nose with no redness or itchyness.Blearghhhhhhhh!This is not a good look on me!!!T_T..Looking like shit is never an option that I'd ever choose but unfortunately with this disease that I have,it makes me look like one a couple of times in a month.

Hates this.Hates the fact that I don't carry my medicine & need to see the doc today to get more..Arghhhh!

Today:Rudolph the red nose reindeer

The title described what I looked like today at work.Fine,not my whole nose,but only at the sides.ahaha.Got the fever+flu from my lil' cousin Alia during her birthday celebration last Saturday.Because 3 ppl MC from work today,my boss advice me not to go home & take a break instead & take some meds & slept for an hour or so.Funnily,about an hour before work was about to end,the whole huge office(mine is the building made entirely out of glass that you can see if you pass through the highway near Bukit Jelutong..it's next to it,you can't miss it!),experienced blackout!

Our office depends solely on the thousands of pc to do our work & that's why it is super freezing in the office because we have to make sure that the pc does not overheat.Some of my friends did not save their works so their clients information,some of them,went 'kaput',just like that.I reminded my friends--remember to click save!

During lunch,pick up this bag below at Old Blossom since my nose was clogged up & I can't taste food anyway...I emailed Jezmine yesterday saying that I'll pick up the bag afterwork but I just couldn't wait--it's the Becky Bloomwood in me...hehe.Initially I waited for the grey bag but then I have too many grey stuffs as it is...Besides my last 2 red bags are ruined now!I love the colour red cos' it empowers you..:)

After work,went home to find mama's sambal tumis petai waiting for me along with Krispy Kreme doughnuts which they bought since my dad didn't work today & went to Shah Alam to help grandma go to the hospital for her checkup.Oh,my mum can't drive,btw.

The fiery sambal made my nose a lil bit better.Ate more meds & m going to bed early tonight & cover more work tomorrow since I slacked off for 2 hours today due to my being sick..bah!!

Goodness Gracious!

Thank God I'm back to normal--health-wise.Since this is the last week for the semester which means,----tomorrow I will be having 2 quizzes and both are important since both have no final paper!On Thursday I have 1 presentation & 1 quiz.Both subject however have finals.On Friday is the submission for 2 assignments which hopefully and judging by the rumours,will be extended till next week..

Anyhoo,I actually have more to blog about--duh!!--but instead I'll just post about THIS which I'm involve in for the 2nd time around!!!So to fellow UiTM-ians & TESLians..show your support!!!Buhbye people!HAVE TO STUDY!!!

VERTIGO

Some things can happen at the worse time possible.2 days before the seminar that my classmates and I,U8C,have been planning for more than 3 months,I got sick.On Wednesday,after watching Monalisa Smile at the fac for my Women Lit class,I went back home and while I was getting in the car,I suddenly felt my head rotating to my left,like I was about to pass out from lack of sleep.So I thought it was nothing,ate a sweet and drove home.At night,I felt really horrible. Whenever I turn my head to the right,it rotates full circle, like the feeling when you’re seasick.

I cannot turn my head to either side and all I could do was stay still and lay down.I asked my cousin why am I feeling this way and she told me maybe because I should sleep.So I slept.And when I woke up in the morning, around 6.30am,it got WORSE.I thought maybe it’s because I haven’t wash my hair, so I shampooed but it was still there. I felt nauseous & vomit the water that I drank. Asked my aunt to bring me to the nearest 24hr clinic and the doctor told me that I have Vertigo, forgot to ask him much & he was very nonchalant & was like, it’ll past in 3 to 4 days..WTF!!I don’t have 3 to 4 days!! I guess because I just felt really nauseous, I just wanted to get out of there & take my meds and go back to bed. The doc gave me an MC and I went home, puking some more when I went back---like I said, it’s like seasick all the time although you’re walking normally.

I can only take the 2 meds that the doc gave,twice in a day.So I slept,hoping against hope that I would recover in time to help my classmates set up for our seminar that night.I had to eat in bed,lying down,using a spoon so that I could take my meds,which required me to eat first.I could not eat sitting down or walked or sit after I ate because that meant I would puke again.blergghh.

Basically all I could do was stay in bed. But still that night,it got worse.I only ate like 1 nasi himpit the WHOLE day from the lontong that my aunt bought.I ate like 2 cornflakes cookies in the evening but ended up puking it again when I went to the bathroom..yes,walking to the loo made me puke too. The next morning,I woke up early in hopes that I would be able to attend the seminar that I helped design the booklet,the montage,and findthe designer for the banner and bunting---but NO.Still could not walk further than the room to the bathroom without having to lay down on the bed to alleviate the nausea.

In the evening,my dad came and my whole family was there too since school was closed. My parents brought me to the family doctor instead because I wanted a second opinion. He explained a lot about my situation.Thank God!Because I was just so confuse over how this could have happened so suddenly, without any warning. He said that now that it has happened---IT WOULD HAPPEN FREQUENTLY.Atleast once in a year.I was like..WHAT??????

He told me that there’s an imbalance happening to my middle ear,which is inside my head,which makes me feel seasick/mabuk + nauseous.All I can do is make sure that I have extra meds with me at all time.Because it could happen anytime.I was like, but all I could do when it happens is to stay in bed.He was like yes,and try to relax.My mum was there beside me & she asked what triggers it to happen,what is something eat I ate and he say no,it just happens.Great.Now I have to live with it!!!!I pray that it won’t happen again during important times because staying in bed while important things are happening or needs to be done is NOT FUN!!!

There,vertigo might seem like a cool word,but it is not cool once it actually happens to you.Not cool at all to feel like everything is spinning at all time and puking even the water that you drink.NOT COOL!!!A senior of mine told me that he has vertigo too & it took him 3 weeks to recover..3 WEEKS!!!I pray it won’t happen during finals!*gulp*...Thanks so much to Hafriz who helped me by playing the montage that I did for the seminar cos’ I can’t be there & also to all my colleagues of U8C PD class for my absence at a crucial time..sigh.Today is the 4 & ½ day that I’m experiencing vertigo and it’s not as bad during the first 2 days...I soo don’t want to go there again..:(
