228 - to get a little bit of your attention.

i think i'm one of those people.
you know, who never took any vaccines.
yeah sure, i've had shots.
but i guess not the chicken pox vaccine.

coz i'm currently recovering from one.


that wasn't me. this is just an example. the kid is so sad :(
i'm the weird case.
i only had half of that.
i don't even look like i have chicken pox now.
heck, it's like i was never sick!
very suspicious.

maybe i'm the chicken pox monster.
:D

well whatever, point is, if you have it, it's not fatal.
if you don't have it yet, good luck trying to avoid it. especially when you're oooold.
because up to now, me and my sister have no idea how she got it in the first place.
and my theory is how the older you are, the worse it is.
e.g. my sisters and i. i have no pox scars on my face!!!
yet.

the funnier thing is,
a few days before she got it, i brought up the topic of chicken pox while we were just randomly talking, waiting for our parents.
and then, BAM! she's viral.
badabeembadaboom, i got it.
and missed a week of school.
one of the worst things, ever.
my final semester and i'm missing grade 12 functions and i don't even get the slightest idea of when negative infinity is approached.
don't get it? me neither.

so what did i do for one week at home?
nothing so significant or life changing, actually.
it was more of what i couldn't do.
couldn't go out, shower, sit wherever i want to, touch whatever i want to, scratch the poxes and hug anyone :(
and i had to take my medicine every 2 hours, and it makes me forget whether or not i've taken it or not so it makes me all paranoid when i want to take it.
and i had to angle myself when i want to sleep.
and i had fever for one day.

BUT IT'S ALL OVER NOW :D
i can shower, and oh my god, don't shower for a week and you finally find the simple pleasures in showering.
i even made a freakin' haiku while i was at it.
it was so rejuvenating.
i would just really like a body scrub now.
and a fish spa.
whole body fish spa would do too.

my dad, however, thinks i'm still contagious and untouchable so i won't be able to go out. just yet.
I CRAVE FOR THE CONTAMINATED FRESH AIR.
i want to get out and buy a lot of things just for the sake of it!
i mean, i was so bored i was looking at forever 21 online.
had to keep the shopping urge all bottled up.
and it sucked so much when i saw the vampire weekend cd that i wanted right there in front of me and i couldn't buy it.
:(

and i can't find the phoenix cd anywhere.
it's amazing.
it's ridiculous.

i spent the whole morning cutting up little alphabets for the psychology brain assignment. gotta get that done and over with!
and the previous days watching movies and making origami.
now my room is filled with origami decorations.
i need to get out to get the glow in the dark cats, and stars.
cats in space. how epic is that? all that in my room :D

i know school is now the core of hell or anything unsugar and spice, but i kinda really miss my friends.
and the fact that i haven't seen them for a week, and adding another week because of the chinese new year holidays are driving me nutssssssss.
especially hanif :(

i'm all clean and i feel unviral, but now, they're gone.
OH WELL. time to get some work done for me then.

here's something to listen then :)
